Chrome forum search - my gift to you!
If you're like me, the first place you often wind up searching for an issue related to our trucks is this forum. To make like easier, I came up with a way to "build in" truck forum search into Chrome. It's kinda technical but I'll do it in baby steps.
When you're done, truck forum search appears in Chrome like the photo at the end (look down there to see if you want to bother). When you're done, from Chrome at any point, you can use it thusly: Type trucks in your address bar Press tab It magically says "Search 67-72 Trucks:" Type whatever Just these forums are searched for 'whatever' Here are the steps Open Chrome Settings Look at the Search section about 4 sections in Click on "Manage search engines..." Scroll down to the very bottom where there are empty boxes In those three boxes, enter the following. I really recommend copy/paste as you'd never type it accurately. If it disappears while you're working on it if you click elsewhere, it likely moved up to the top of the list of "Other search engines" you were working in because "67" comes first alphabetically, so it bumps up top. First Box: 67-72 Trucks Second Box: trucks Third Box: https://www.google.com/search?as_q=%...hevytrucks.com To use it: Click on your address bar. Type trucks Press tab It'll automagically know to say "Search 67-72 Trucks:" now as you type. When you click enter, whatever you typed will be search for, and just on these forums.
