Did you by chance used to do the warranties for Phillips Ford in Big Rapids MI a few years ago? If so I have spoken to you a few times. I was a tech there until August of 2009. If I knew you were a Bronco guy we would have spoken much more!;D

I did do the claims at Phillips Ford (they still owe me money). I did not have a bronco at that time. What dealership are you at now? You probably need a new warranty person there to help you techs make some more money.

I work for a Detention Equipment Contractor supplying prison doors, frames, locks and steel fabricated furniture. Senior Project Mgr and Fabrication Mgr. Some of you have probley slept on one of our very soft metal bunks LOL. Our motto is Thousands Stand Behind our Products. The shop comes in real handy when I need something made for the bronco.

Registered nurse! And most likely one of the younger members of this crowd. I picked the job because it pays the bills, but I'll never pass up an opportunity to get my hands dirty.

 

[Bajabrewer]

I get paid to watch TV ...;D

No really I'm a video production engineer for WXYZ - ABC news in Detroit. I also have to push some buttons & talk to reporters & cameramen & producers & edit & do stuff with satellites & man I'm getting tired just thinking of all the stuff I gotta do Guess I should take a day off & work on the Bronco!!!;D
When I do freelance gigs I spend that on the Bronco or one of my other hobbies.

That is certainly one of the more brutal jobs in our industry. Not so much for keeping the gear up and running, but for having to deal with the newsroom staff!!! (I used to design newsrooms and master control rooms- gave me grey hair at a young age).

I'm a towboat pilot on the Ohio river. See broncos all the time up and down the river but can never find them when I go back to look for them. Lol

Yup! what hair I have left is turning grey but I blame my kids for that I do get an adrenalin rush doing live TV & I love that I leave work at work & never take it home.

It does not surprise me that they screwed you. Jeff screwed alot of people over when they closed. I'm glad I got out of there before the sinking ship hit the bottom! I now work at Ed Koehn Ford/Lincoln in Greenville. And I could use all the help with warrany pay that I can. The vehicles continue to get more complex while the warranty times to repair Fords mistakes seem to get smaller and smaller!
Jeff is or was part of the Maxton Automotive group in northern Ohio and Indiana. Maybe you could track him down?

Bax,
I am always interested in what type of comment you have, it seems to be funny everytime. Never met you, but I feel like I do since I have read so many of your post. I guess you and Rev are in the same boat somehow and he is a pretty good old FLorida boy. I have bought many Matco tools over the years so it is good to know who the "Tool Guy" really is now! LOL;D

Been in the electrical field for about 16 years now (which is saying something since I'm only 29). Got started out early by my dad. I'm currently running the service department of a multi-million dollar a year company in Fort Walton Beach. Theyve got me running like a chicken with my head cut off!!
