Another first timer on forum.
Not new to forum format. I do the RV and motorcycle forums regularly.
I have a 2012 F150 Ford Raptor since ordered mid 2012.
I am retired machinist/machine repairman. Been a chief mechanic on a floating oil rig for a while too.
I live remotely in a log cabin, in the mountains of SE Tennessee, and surrounded by the Cherokee National Forest. There are even some mild jeep trails near here that the Raptor does fine in. Windrock, near Oak Ridge is within a hundred miles for more extreme off roading too. Only I prefer the more simpler ones, and use the Raptor more as a pick-up truck, than an off road explorer. I have explored Blue Bird Mesa in NM!
So I say hello, and thanks for admitting me to the forums.
