I'm Chris, Native of Texas, live in florida. I have a 97 F250 extended cab with the 7.3 powerstroke. Love the truck and have ever since the first day i saw it. NOW, it's getting to the point that i need to learn more about it, and deisels. I was an aircraft mechanic in the USAF for over 9 years, so twisting a wrench isn't a big deal for me.

I'm Matt. I'm 37, from Indian Trail NC and I didn't realize it until recently but I guess I dig Fords. I've had an Explorer for 15 years, I bought a 1976 F150 about five years ago, and just last week I bought a Windstar minivan to haul drums and other band gear around. That's 3 Ford vehicles I own. They should have some sort of loyalty program

The Forum has already been an excellent resource and I'm sure it will continue to be in the future!

I'm George of Chattanooga Tn. Not really new here, just back after a year. Was'nt there a Fairmont/Zephyr forum on here before? Anyway after selling my Futura drag car last year to pay for my wifes surgery , I found another on Feb 1st thanks to my wife spotted it on a country used car lot. It's a 82' Futura with a 200 6cyl. that runs and drives, great besides the oil leaks I'll fix when it warms up. Have an 81' Granada 'fox' with a 302 ,that I am going to swap motors around with the Mont soon. Swapping k members also to get me going in the right direction. This one will not be an all out drag car , but a 300-400hp street car with juice. The plan is to add to the car while driving it, until a fresh stroker moter is ready.

Hi!! I'm Heather, I'm 20 years old (counting down to my 21st!!) and I'm from San Antonio, Texas but I'm currently a student in College Station, Texas. I drive a 1999 V6 Mustang that I've put a lot of love, time and patience into, she's my baby and I wouldn't sell her for the world. I bought her back in 2007 (my first and only car) and babied her ever since, I posted a newb thread in the Mustang section if you want to check out pics or mods.

Hi, I am Jeff from Southern New Jersey and the owner of a 1995 Ford Aerostar XLT 4.0 E-AWD van. Owned her since about 1997 when she had 50,000 miles on her. She now has about 218,000 miles and still running good. Have some slight problems cropping up, which is obviously why I am here.
Thanks,
Jeff.

My name is Bill. I'm a maintenance man in an injection molding company. I have owned a few Fords in my day including the cream of my crop a 1966 Mustang convertible, midnight blue with a white top. Loved that car wish I still had it.
