Hello I'm Volker,

I found my Ford F100 Ranger XLT (windsor 302 CID) about 6 month ago and I'm really happy to spend time with it.

He spent the first 5 years of his life in Miami and the rest as an workhorse on a farm in Arizona.

I'm really glad that I have found this bullnose forum here to share experience and to get in contact with other Ford Pickup enthusiasts.

Welcome, Volker! Glad you joined!!! :nabble_anim_handshake:

That's a very nice looking truck. Hope you'll tell us all about it, and you for that matter.

Where in Germany? I ask for two reasons. First, because we have a map (Bullnose Forum/Member's Map in the menu above) and we can add you if we had a city. And there you can see that we have other members in Germany.

Also, I ask because I've spent some time in your country and I'm curious if I've been there.

Hi Gary,

I‘m originally from Bayreuth it is a small city in northern Bavarian. There is also the new Home of my F100. He will hopefully spend the rest of his life there because he won‘t be treated as hard as the workhorse on the farm😉

Since about 20 years I‘m living in Munich, because there is the headquarter of BMW and I work there as an engineer.

When you have been to Germany you surely have been to Munich.

So you either can add me to Bayreuth or to Munich on your map. It‘s up to you.

Regards,

Volker

Volker - You are now on the map, basically in the BMW building I was in a few years ago.

We were there in late September for a "small" celebration with a parade, some tents in a large field, and lots of singing going on in the Hofbräuhaus. :nabble_smiley_cool:

Unfortunately we planned to visit the BMW Museum on Monday, obviously unaware that museums are closed on Mondays in Germany. But we did tour BMW Welt, got our pictures taken with the car and bike used in a movie, the BMW Isetta, etc.

As for Bayreuth, I haven't been but know where it is. That's because we know some people named Bayreuth here in our town and that's where they are from so I looked it up. Probably the closest I've been is Nuremberg.

Thank you Gary!

Oh I didn‘t know that the BMW World is closed on Mondays. But the BMW Museum next to it absolutely worth to visit it because there are the nice classic BMW‘s including the Isetta.

The Isetta on the bed of the F100 would surely fit. That would be a curious photo.

Great that you know people from Bayreuth and you are right, Nuernberg is not far away of it.

Best Regards

Volker
