Yes, it's a friendly site. If you come here with a 'tude you'll get a 'tude back. Friendly people are welcome most anywhere.

Yup, greatly appreciate the info I've gotten, attitude-free (on some of the Mustang sites I go to, you'll get ripped up if you go in cold).

some mustang people can be like that, not ripping on all of them(i used to be a stang owner) but there are some of the newer owners that think their $*** don't stink


your the exception to the rule roach

Best one I have been apart of. I joined a couple of other forums for Rangers and they don't have the same kind of atmosphere. I joined a Pinto forum and it doesn't hold a candle to RF either.

I'm heavily active in 4 forums, and this is probably the second best. I have to go with my home forum, RMFTC.com simply because it's a, for lack of better terms, family to me. Everyone (and when I mean everyone I mean everyone) knows everyone on a personal level, not just a tag name on a board. It's more of a communication board more than a tech board.

I'm also part of FSB, Explorerforum.com, and TRS. TRS is nice, simply because a few of the guys from RMFTC are there, and the tech writeups are decent. The only thing I don't like is it's geared more toward the pre 98's with TTB.

Explorerforum.com, great group of people in the Colorado chapter, haven't had much communication with them though

FSB, I'm mixed on it. I feel bad because Bronco guys are just as bad as Jeepers with their mine's bigger than yours mentality. That and they're almost a mini Pirate in the bashing they do. I keep to myself, speak up when I need to, and find the info I need before coming back here and to RMFTC.

I joined this forum when I bought my Ranger cause I didn't know jack **** about them. Within literally 3 weeks I knew the problem areas on my Ranger, the fact I got the badass package, and a bunch of idea's on what I wanna do to it. I appreciate the help. I may be an *** from time to time, but arent we all?

All in all it's a decent forum, the one I didn't hesitate to contribute to (RMFTC I contribute financially in a few different ways)

ExplorerForum is my other favorite forum. I don't post there, but it's a major "research" destination for me.

Lot of info there. They're the ones that got me thinking about a 5.0L swap in my Ranger.

im a member or 8 different forums, RF,dogdeforum,PTforum,TRS,RPS etc... those are the ones i visit and post in most, but by far RF is THE BEST i think, the dodge forums is great also, because it has ALL the dodge vechicles not just the RAM, also they have alot of great people and alot of know how, just dificult to navigate sometimes.. and they dont have a section just for pics.. which is ghey i think..

I started with 3 Ranger sites I belonged to. This is the last one I joined but the first one I come to anymore. I still navigate around the other pages but usually only post here.

Well, part of that is that some "lingo" comes in on some items. You know, people get used to using some shorthand to refer to something, never refer to it by it's real name, and unless you're hip to it you could miss entire topics because you don't know their abbreviations. I've found that over there before for sure. Probably happens here as well.

Also, if you don't join as a member, you don't get the same search options as visitors I don't believe. I could be wrong about that though -- it might just be another site I'm thinking of.
