A few discouraging v6f150.com facts:
1. Out of those 3600 members, there are 10 active members.
2. Those 10 active members are moderators.
3. Those members control what they want others to post.
4. It's questionable that it was sold to a new owner... the original owner that owned a Turbocharged V6 F150 dumped it off to the new owner.
5. They talk about HHO, and how 8 of the 10 members say they get 50 mpg.
6. If you ask a legitmate question on the site, it either gets ignored, or else fun is poked at it, and the question never gets answered. Or else it gets deleted mysteriously.
7. The owner of the site bans users not because they cause trouble, but merely so they can re-register and bring up the member count.
8. Out of the 10 of the active members, there is probably 300 accounts for each active member. The owner problem gave them money to sit back, and create fake users all day and to post questions that were posted on other sites.
9. If you are not from Texas, they will ban you.
10. They have a private section that you can pay for. Yet, from dealings with them, and a few other people, the owner rips money off people and Paypal won't do a darn thing about it too.

It looks like you still miss the site as you spent a lot of time researching threads, member count, member locations, time on the board, etc...
Most of your compliments have already been addressed but number 7 and 10 need clarification.
#7 - I banned you twice for being a pest and a general pain in the ***. Every other word out of your mount the first time around was about your Dakota and how much you loved it. Seriously, no one wanted to hear that much about your Dodge. You got bent out of shape way too easy and pissed off enough people, and were warned numerous times, then were banned. I can post the 2 part PM you sent me requesting that I delete your photos, posts, comments, etc if you wish.
#10 was between you and me. You begged me on IM under the screen names "chuckthetrucka" and "chuckspowerbook" to let you back in. I enabled your account and gave you a second chance - my mistake. You signed up for the private forums, didn't meet the requirements of the forum (posted for your viewing pleasure) so I refunded your money via PayPal.
I can post the Paypal transaction if you wish....
But, again, thanks for the free publicity!!!

I like my Dakota, and my F150.
Please, quit whining and get over it. That forum will never be as great as F150online.com. Hence IB buying it out.
Besides, I find the diversity of people on here to be much more intelligent.
Such a waste of my time... I'm done with this thread... I want my 10 minutes back.

ManualF150 was a pest. Like others here have said, his so-called facts have already been refuted but I would like to point out that I'm a moderator on v6f150.com, not from Texas, not banned and I'd also like to say that as far as the site goes, I've learned an awful lot about my truck from the original members of the site and I find it a generally great place to be a part of. Anyone is more than welcome to join regardless of what they drive as long as they adhere to the rules. ManualF150 chose not to follow the rules and Mike did what he felt was necessary. Nobody else in the history of the site has had any issues like ManualF150 had.

What a butthead... I was on V6F150 when Talley owned it, and I still visit almost daily.. It is THE lead source of info on the 4.2... This is an underappreciated engine, but of course aftermarket parts availability favors the 8's... Thats ok though, I love it when I have to pop the hood to PROVE it's a V6 and then they start lookin' for the nitrous!!
