Can I hang out here?

Hey guys,
I dont have a Thunderbird or a Cougar, but I was looking at buying one a couple of months ago, found this site, and have been hanging on to it.  I do have a Fox body, however - a good old Fairmont. 

Well, the only Fairmont message board I can find is slow, boring, and outdated.  The ford truck website I hang out at is getting on my nerves.  Plus you guys are hilarious.  No other forum I have seen has such a dry sense of humor - everyone else takes it so seriously.  Oh, and at one time, when the "music" thread was about 750 posts and counting, I read the whole thing, beginning to end.  Is that initiation enough? 

So is that uncool?  Or can I hang out here, make saracastic comments, and ask advice on Fox-specific engines, transmissions, suspensions and frames?

Can you hang out? NO! ;)

Sure man, stick around. This place feels like my second home- it's still nice and small, without too much BS going on.


By the way, if I might ask- what ford truck website do you go to? Is it ford-trucks.com? Just curious, because I was on there for a little while, and if that's where you're talking about then I know what you mean.

You can only hang out if you offer up your firstborn, we're greedy s on here :giggle: 

Nah, you're cool as far as I'm concerned.  Better check with the gods of the board, lest you be smitten!

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
