Hey whats up fellow Ford truck drivers of NJ.
The name is Mike. I live in Central NJ off exit 117. (typical way to say where your from)
I've owned my truck for 3 years now. She's my baby. I've put her to work time and time again and been all over the east coast with her. This is my 3rd Ford truck and I'm hooked. My other 2 Fords I had years ago. 1 was a 79 F250 highboy 4x4 with a rebuilt 460. Ugly and mean. The other truck was a 78 F150 4x4 351m. The 73-79 body style is by far my favorite style. I really want to get my hands on another one for a project/trail truck.

 

Welcome Mike, what town you from? I'll send you a member map once you have your PM setup after 25 posts. We also send out annoucements via PM's so post often and visit the monthly BS thread, it's real easy to get them fast there.

See you around!

 

Hey mike welcome to FTE!

 

Mike, welcome to the Jersey chapter. You will see others like me from various chapters posting here. Steve is a great guy and has lots of activities (GTG's) planned for ya. So see ya in the BS thread.

 

I'm from keansburg. If you don't know anything about the town, that's a good thing. This town is a hole. For those who know the town, don't judge me based on fact that I live here. It's not my choice. I'm just currently stuck here.


Thank you for the Welcomes. I'm looking forward to meeting up and learning from you all.

 

If your available this weekend were doing a HPOP upgrade on a 2001 7.3 in Vernon.

 

I'm still learning and have a far way to go. I have no idea what HPOP is.

 

High pressure oil pump

 

it could be learning experience too, you have a diesel right?

 

My truck has the 5.4.. The little engine that could.
I'm not sure as of now if I'm able to go. I might be working a little job this weekend. I will keep you posted. And I do appreciate the offer. It would be great to meet up with some of you guys/girls and work on a truck. Or in my case watch and learn.

 

hey me too, we did the same upgrade last Saturday in CT.

 

you get together with people often to work on each others trucks?

 

in between the drinking and smoking GTG's....JK

 

a few guys started the North East Seven Three's or NEST for short, they have monthly truck work days, if you have a project everybody lends a hand.
