Can you do that?
Well, you may be an Oldie, a Goodie, a Newbie or a badge carrying member of the Weight Police, but for sure you may have questions about how this Forum thing is supposed to work. Well, here's your chance to ask all those questions that have been lurking around in the back of your grey matter. Ask away. This could be a lot of fun or it may go completely bust. Either way, it is a way to have some fun. First and only rule: Play Nice! That's an order.

Why do people continue to buy Ford Power Strokes even though Ford hasn't gotten a Diesel engine right since the 7.3?

I don't know; this could almost be a catchall instead of using the appropriate categories.
On the other hand, I do have many questions wandering around in the back of my grey matter; why isn't my investment guy making me 20%?? Why are the utilities on my houses so high? Taxes? Is my Ram going to make 100k?
Lots of questions floating around in the background but I'm not sure I should put them out here
I'm sure there are some questions some will want to ask that don't fit in a category so I'll keep watching... Good Luck.

Because FORD didnt make any Diesel engines including the 7.3...
Until 2011 when FORD started make the Scorpion engine 6.7L V8.

Why do folks call it a "bumper pull" when more than likely 99.9% are hooked-up by a receiver attached to their "frame" and not the bumper??? Just call it a "travel trailer!"

And why do people call every RV a Camper?

Why do you drive on a parkway and park on a driveway?

Ok I have one: Is it cool to post the same questions on this forum and another model-specific RV forum simultaneously?

Now...now, we're getting to the fun part I think was thought about on the first post....... I'm wondering why our dermatologist keeps freezing "spots" off my head, ears, arms, hands etc. - I thought I looked "fabulous" I believe this is RV related because you travel to so many places and meet new folks.....you have to look your "best" - even with all the little spots. Carry on....

Too much freezer burn can be hazardous to your BUD (Beyond Use Date).

Do you mean 2 different places on this forum or on 2 different forums? If the former, no. If the later feel free to post away.

Why do most remarkable incidents start with, "Here. Hold my beer"?

If your nose is running, don't think it's funny 'cause it's not.

My current Cummins is approaching 332,000. Sounds good, feels good, runs good...especially with the newly installed FASS Titanium. No corrosion (or emissions crap) anywhere.
Why do intelligent people do stupid things? Lack of smarts?
