The Big Dummy has arrived...I'm new here, but some of you might recognize me from other sites, under different names.

Blame Dennis (Mil1ion), he recommended this site to me. :lol:

It didn't take long. :x

I've been on this site less than 24 hours and have already gotten into a big argument over what Ford did and didn't do. :(

Oh well...

I'm sure it won't be the last time! :P That's OK though, Bill...I've been corrected more than a time or two myself. The membership here doesn't let a guy get away with anything! :lol:

Anyway, having someone with your access to parts numbers and the willingness to help out like you do will be greatly appreciated, I'm sure. :thup: Welcome aboard!

On t'other site I (NumberDummy) have 16,678 posts, 11 greenies and 1954 rep points since 11/2006.

All of that is meaningless here.

I try and help ppl, but got off on the wrong foot here, and I feel bad about that.

Gunz we're all cool, you'll find we're all pretty low key and mostly easy to get along with. :wink: Cruz around here a bit and you'll see how we are.
Having the added part number info and resources to find some of them that you bring will be appreciated.


I'm good with ya. 8)

Hi Bill and welcome. Glad you're here. I should have figured out who you are from your screen name but missed it. :doh:

At the other site you've both helped me out and shown me the error of my ways. :lol:

I rarely check in there anymore but Redcat Diesel may ring a bell.
