Howdy all.. Just figured I'd introduce myself.. My name is Ryan Kirkman, and I live in the Southern California desert near Glamis.. I am a new PSD SuperDuty owner, and I am really excited about this site. I have been browsing the topics and posts, and realized that this will be a valuable source of information for me.. You all seem to have a wealth of knowledge about the subjects, and I'm sure I can learn alot from you.. Soooo.. if you see my posts, just remember, that I'm new at this, and still learning.. I went from one extreme to another, I have always owned custom VWs, but have been in a Ford family my whole life.. call me the black sheep.. but I finally saw the light, much to my Dads approval.. I have alot of future plans for my '01 F350, and its well on its way to standing out in a crowd.. if theres one thing you'll learn about me, is that I cant stand the mainstream.. All in all, I just wanted to compliment the moderators and the administrators on setting up a great BBS, and commend the users on keeping it that way! Talk to ya soon!
