Well folks
Time has come.
It appear this forum is moving into the next phase and is now becoming an American commercial venture.
i would like to thank everyone for the friendship, camaraderie and genuine good times.
We have learnt a lot over the last two years or so.
If anyone wants to keep in touch my email is davidboreland@optusnet.com.au
It has been a genuine pleasure interacting with you over the last two years.
What a ride.
Farewell
Dave

Dave

I have the impression you are a strong willed character and now your mind is made up, it will not be changed.
Wishing you every success with your new vehicle and thank you for supplying your personal email details.

Very best wishes

Phil

Hi Dave,
Admit to not reading all of your past posts. Help me understand why you view this forum as "becoming an American commercial venture". Thanks!

Pretty disappointing to leave after you have delivery and can be a resource to others who are waiting.....but I guess you got what you needed from the forum. Good luck.

They are just sitting there underground rotting away and going to waste.
We re-use and release their goodness into the atmosphere, which then settles to the ground and so the cycle begins again.

Full ACK. It's stored solar energy. Nothing else.

I think @DaveB and @DCPU are in a complot to start a new Grenadier Forum on the Dark Web :unsure: :eek: 😨

I don't see the American commercial venture by the way: Black Sheep? Buzz? LeTech? ARB? ... :unsure:

I am hoping this is a joke Dave. Seems both odd and somehow ungrateful if you have brought everyone on your journey with you and benefited from the learnings of this group just to abandon when you get your vehicle. No idea what you are talking about with regards being an American commercial venture. Sure Krabby and Stu are US based and understandably now that it’s becoming real for our American members they are ramping up, but there is a huge international contingent contributing heavily here and I don’t see the commercial side at all. I can’t image Stu and collaboraters are
Making any money out of it, certainly not in proportion to the work put in if any. Commercial members are identified and managed and most of them are EU based so far.

This is actually insulting to @Stu_Barnes who created this site to help the global Grenadier community. And to @Krabby who spends hours helping out others.

I don't see the "American commercial venture" at all.

Many people here supported Dave when he lost his job and on his long journey to get his truck. And he abandons them now that he has his truck.

I found his anti-Americanism went beyond the good natured joking that goes on here about all countries. And as an American we deserve a most of the joking around :)

I think he got in a snit because someone yesterday mentioned his poor taste 9/11 joke (which he was never man enough to say he was sorry).

Very childish behavior.

He does this now and then, spits the dummy and chucks his toys out of the pram. After a bit of a break hopefully he picks them back up and comes back and plays (nice) some time soon.

Do you suppose @DaveB got a rash of advertising pop-ups and thought the site was the source so did a runner? He might have gotten a virus while trawling the internet for naked photos of Sarah-n-tuned.

Did you see her SEMA video? Sounded like a complete fool when she encountered the EGR Grenadier.

I think it is this. Dave has no doubt enjoyed the attention he has got through having his own thread but on the occasions where he stepped outside the forum rules he hasn't responded well, or not at all.
The late Patrick Swayze would have said: "No one puts Dave in the corner".
To be fair, Dave did try to warn us here
