What's going on everyone (if anyone remembers me, that is)? Long time no talk! I thought I would drop you all a line and give you all a small-ish update on me.

So, if you all remember, I used to live in VA and drove a Mazda pickup. Well, we gave that away and I went to college and commissioned in the Air Force as an aircraft maintenance officer. Before I commissioned I purchased this....

That's my baby, Jenna! I've done a bit of work to her and, needless to say, she definitely holds her own, if you know what I mean . Lightnings beware!! . I guess you could say I "gotanicecar" now...haha...bad joke...

So, after I commissioned, I got stationed at McChord AFB, WA which is now Joint Base Lewis-McChord, McChord Field, WA. Absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE the Puget Sound area! Any members out that way?

At the moment, I'm currently deployed to the Middle East in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. I'm having a pretty good time so far and I'm definitely learning a lot.

Anyways, I hope everyone's doing well! Take care!

 

I have no idea who you are, but out of curiosity, why do you hang on a Ford forum when you have been driving nothing but Mazdas......???

 

Maybe it has something to do with the lengthy Ford/Mazda alliance.

 

Or that the Mazda pickups were rebadged Rangers.

 

Not pre 1994.

 

Welcome back.....Thank you for your service!

 

I used to be really active here when I was back in high school and my parents owned a 1998 Expedition which has been traded in for a 2008 Expedition. Just getting information for them, mostly. But yes, Mazda and Ford had a pretty significant alliance as well. Can't knock me for that...

 

Sigmund Freud called it "***** Envy."

 

Yeah...that's exactly what it is

I come back to say hey and I'm met with negativity. Wow, thanks guys... What happened to the members from when I first joined that didn't care what I drove?

 

Don't care what you drive -- just wondering.....

Although I have to admit, that "***** envy" comment was pretty funny.....

 

As long as it's not a Toyota, Nissan, Chevy, or Dodge, then you're good.

 

Thanks for your service... be careful over there!

 

I remember you wanna! Welcome back and thanks for your service!

 

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeey! What's goin on man!

Thanks everyone
