Hello, I’m Michael AKA MADDOG. I live in Arizona now but was born and raised in Oregon. In the early 1970s, I proudly served in the US Air Force. After my military service, I pursued a degree in Business and worked in the power generation and distribution industry for over three decades focusing on purchasing, contracts and project management.

I’ve joined this forum as a Community Manager and Administrator to support the owners in managing and growing their forum network. I am also here to assist staff and members of the Tahoe/Yukon community with anything you need—technical questions, troubleshooting, or general guidance. My goal is to ensure that everyone has a seamless and enjoyable experience while using the forum. Whether it's resolving technical issues, brainstorming ideas for community engagement, or providing insights into automotive topics, I'm here to help.

Feel free to reach out any time you need help or have suggestions for improving our community. I look forward to working with you all and making this forum the best it can be! Let's collaborate to create a vibrant and supportive space for all members.

Welcome aboard.

You will shortly find out just how great this Forum and its members are. No Facebook/X-Twitter/Instagram/etc. attitudes or nonsense or worthless posts by folks who hide behind their keyboards. These types of folks don't last long here, which is fine with us.

We still have fun here and joke around with fellow members, but it is always done in a respectful manner. We also discuss/agree/disagree in a respectful manner.

Again, welcome aboard, and we're looking forward to see what you have to share with us.

And, thank you for your service (seriously).

Thank you @Joseph Garcia.

I've been a member on Shaggy's RamForum since late 2011 and your comments resonate with me as we have always strived to achieve those very same goals. Rule breakers, intolerant twits and fake bad a** pretenders don't last long on that forum either! I like it that way.

I've been lurking here since May 7th, reviewing the site and making notes on suggested actions to keep this site one of the best out there. My goals align with yours and I am looking forward to interacting with all the members here.

I was trying to keep a low profile. I finally stepped out after helping add a Military Member badge to someone's profile here. I just couldn't help myself being a Veteran myself and having spent a lot of time managing that particular feature over at RamForum. @07Burb saw the action and commented on it. Rats....caught in the act again! :D

I am very happy to be here and as I said, I am here to help one and all.

Thanks for having me.

THANKS MADDOG!!!
The Dodge certainly looks like a beast! We can forgive.

In honor of non-GMs and veterans:
