First thing that hits you (square in the face) is this loooooong list of sponsor ads...

I think we've been there - done that - came here to get away from that...

By the way - your bandwidth sucks. Takes way too long to load.

I'm not from Texas, therefore, I was not invited.

I wonder if there is a NewHampshireTruckScene.com? I should Google that when I get some time.

Here is a list of what Texas Truck Scene is about:
(Also, our sponsor ads are not just sponsor ads like the ones found on this site. They actually contribute to the forum and post specials for only members of the site. We dont run google ads because we are not in it to make money off of click-able ads)

a.)
This is the 1st ever and only TX only truck forum in existence. Some other sites have sub-sections for regions of the U.S. but none dedicated soley to TX.

b.)
This is the 1st ever forum with only sponsors from TX and
caters to smaller one-person companies with people that are willling to help each other out.

c.)
Forum was created with only the members in mind. Every member is given the same respect and opportunity to voice their suggestions and input. Each suggestion and/or input is evaluated and tried to be actioned.

d.)
All proceeds made from advertisements/sponsors are put back into the site for site use only. All financial records/transactions are public record and are available for viewing when requested.
No other site will allow the members to do so.

e.)
This site was created to act as the base of all TX groups, clubs, and companies. We work with area-based clubs and groups to create friendships, partnerships, and a network of TX trucks and enthusiasts. You will not see this on any other site as well.

f.)
Management will always be willing to put events together for the members and will do their best to support the needs of each individual member.

Here is the updated link to our new forums:

No, I'm fine with it. I know that Buck and a few others that peeled away from FTW might take exception to the claim that they are the first Texas oriented site though.

not trying to start any * or fight with anyone, so those of you who want to rile something up save your time.
I only came on here because of the way some of the guys on here were being doushe bags to Ron b.
Maybe I should include the excerpt to say "1st ever TX only truck forum that includes all makes/models of vehicles" if you want to get technical.

WoW! Is that the way to not start any Shit. I must have missed that part. I was always under the impression that you just turn the other cheek when you didn't want to start any shit.

EXCATLY. Seriously...hiding behind a computer screen, claiming not to start any shit, and call us all douche bags? what kind of a picture are you painting for yourself? I lived in Houston, and I've personally met a lot of people in Texas...and not one of them has the kind of negative mentality that you portray.

Stop and think before you post...the way you come off, you sure are burning every single bridge you cross.

I said "SOME" of the guys on here that were bashing Ron.
A guy comes on here to extend a friendly invite and is greeted with this?

"By the way - your bandwidth sucks. Takes way too long to load."
" I'd like to invite you to learn how to put a link in your posts."
" pretty boring...like something created in 1999"

Never once did I say, hey come over here because your forum sucks.
Read the above and you tell me who's portarying negative mentality.

Who is Ron anyway? And why isn't he defending himself if he feels he needs to? Better yet - why do you feel the need to come here to defend him? Are there guys from this site coming to your site and identifying themselves as Blog members and actin' the fool? (more than they do normally?)

Tom,
Ron is a guy on our site that took it up on himself to come over here and extend the invite. I only found this site by doing a search for TX truck forums to see if I could find other ones and could help each other out with our affiliate program. If someoone from here came on and said hey check out truckblog.com I'd have absolutely no problems with it, I'm not trying to compete with other forums. This whole thing got blown way out of proportion and the snide remarks people have thrown in on this side do not help the situation at all. I will state again that I am not trying to start sh*t anywhere, but when someone I know or myself personally get attacked I will respond just like you guys will do so on your side.

I'll tell you what, Mr, CHAGO. You and your friend Ron would be well served to thicken up your skins some, if you plan to hang out here.

But, hey, don't take my word for it, just ask Leester.

People around here get picked on on a daily basis. Get used to it or you may want to find somewhere else to be, cause you won't like it here.

Right Tommy?

I also noticed that ron_b came on here, made one single post and hasn't been back since.

Why would he be due more respect than regular members here.

We like to pick on everyone.

Cool...

But please understand that we paint with a broad brush. We often get one-hit wonders (yes, like Ron_b) that come here only to slap something up that really really reeks of Spam. That's why, after hitting Texastruckscene I commented on the super long list of sponsors. The one thing we can pretty much agree on here at the blog is that we hate spammers. I suppose TTS was lumped in the same category. Sorry 'bout that...

...and when Devnull comes along and post about this - don't pay him no mind. He's an asshole - just not as good a one as me...
