We just wanted to let everyone know that after going live a mere 13 days ago, we now have 48 active members, and we are averaging 80-100 guest visits per day! Why they won't just sign up is beyond me...

All this, and I haven't even notified all of our customers about the forum yet! I'm working on compiling an e-mail list of all of our customers since April (when we released the Gryphon), which is taking longer than expected. (As of today, we've had 440 customers!) Believe it or not, the fastest way to do it seems to be to go through all the invoices/custom order forms and manually enter each customer's e-mail address. Our customers are all in our bookkeeping* system, but there's no way to compile the e-mail addresses and export them into Outlook or Yahoo -- at least I haven't figured out how to do it. The list should be finished soon, though, and we're hoping to have many more members by the end of the year!

If you have friends who drive Fords but aren't our customers, please invite them to check us out. It is our hope that people all over the Ford community -- even those who don't have any of our products! -- will sign up and share questions, ideas, and suggestions (We may even sing Kumbaya...). It's all free -- even for our dealers whose banners are displayed!

*BTW, did you know that "bookkeeper" ("bookkeeping," etc.) is the only word in English to have three consecutive sets of double letters? I'm full of useless information!

Have a SPECTACULAR day!
