• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    F3T Rear air suspension

    I have a 2017 F3-L and was under the impression that the rear airbag was automatic and did not need any manual inflating/deflating. Is this different from the F3-T ?? thanks johnv

    How can you make a flash drive (music)

    One thing I ran into with the USB is that it must be formatted FAT32. If formatted NTFS it will not work.
