General
This is a moderated site, which means that there are a few simple rules in place to ensure that everyone is free to enjoy the community here without fear or favour.
All activities on this site including BUYING and SELLING are done so with Caveat Emptor (LET the BUYER BEWARE) ALL TRANSACTIONS in this Forum are done so at your own risk and the owner,administrators and moderators take NO responsibility for any aspect of any item or transaction that may take place via this website.
The site is provided mainly for the benefit of those wishing to discuss the Dmax and Colorado (but not exclusively Dmax /Colorado ) but an area is provided in General Other Chit Chat for other non Ford and non automotive related discussion that is of general interest to the community. This is NOT a free for all area and posts that either don't meet the criteria listed below may be removed at the discretion of the moderation team.
Sponsors/Advertising
1. No commercial advertising or advertising of businesses is permitted. Phone numbers or web links etc are strictly forbidden. There is a SPONSORS advertising section on the forum so if anyone would like to promote a specific business then please contact us about advertising space.
If you have a problem with a particular company DO NOT post it up on the forum. This is easily construed as slander and bears legal ramifications. There are always two sides to every story and without the other party's view it unfair to post your issues.
You may link to other websites in posts, if it is relevant to the topic at hand but not purely for the purpose of promoting a business, product or website. If you want to tell people about a particular website do so via PM.
