In
July 2010 I created a new social network site called the Ranger
Militia (www.rangermilitia.com). My goal was to create a network
of Ranger enthusiasts with the focus on actually getting people
together. The Ranger Militia site allows members to build a
profile similar to facebook. This new site will let you include
photos, videos and music in your profiles. It also has a message
wall so your friends can leave you a message. Take a look at my
profile HERE
for an example.
My
goal was not to create a club or build something that would take
away from The Ranger Station. The Ranger Station has always
placed it's focus on providing Ranger enthusiasts with
information for their trucks. Although I had organized
gatherings in the past, I gradually just got away from doing it.
The
Ranger Militia is an organized group of extreme Ford Ranger
enthusiasts linked together through the power of the internet.
It's not just a social network, it's a lifestyle.
It
doesn't cost money to become a member of the Ranger Militia. It
just requires people who are active, motivated, hardcore Ranger
enthusiasts.
I
want to place emphasis on the active part. The Ranger Militia is
in its early stages, but I'm hopeful that we can organize some
gatherings in the future and actually bring people together face
to face. I personally am striving to get a gathering at a local
event held near here next summer.
This
is how I have described what the Ranger Militia is about on the
Ranger Militia site:
|
The
Ranger Militia is a social network of highly active
hardcore, die-hard Ford Ranger enthusiasts fighting for
the continuation of the Ford Ranger. We are the
defenders, promoters and preservers of the Ranger
community. It is a band of brothers and sisters with a
common interest. It is a lifestyle. It is not a club. |
I
hope that if you're an active enthusiast that enjoys your truck,
and wants to get together with other enthusiasts, that you'll
create a profile at the Ranger Militia and help us get something
going there.
Thanks,
Jim
