Thank you Jay for that explanation. I'm new to this forum/e-mail list and Pantera ownership.  What I often find handy in the on-line forums is the ability to post pictures to illustrate your questions or comments. I do see now this email form gets a lot more activity than the online forum. In fact I had to set up filters in my email box already. 

When in Rome....😉

When we rebuilt the web site a couple years ago, we again included an on-line forum.  It doesn't get a lot of postings but you can set up your account to have it notify you of new postings.  When it sends an email to your inbox, it will have a subject with [POCA Forum] in it.  This is in no way associated with the DeTomaso email forum unless somebody gets the notification email just mentioned and copies it into or forwards it to this email forum.
