Welcome to the forum.
My wife and I host exchange students from Europe but they can't own or operate a car while here in the US.

Welcome to the Forum, you bought a great car. You will love it. I'm in Houston, along with many others that have XFs. Let us know if you need help or advice on how to fix, etc. Always willing to help!

Thank you all for the warm greetings
Well I live in San Antonio(sadly! It is way too hot in here!!)
hi @valk only thing that state of Texas requires is a valid picture ID,(passport is good enough),so actually those students from Europe should be able to own a car. And they can also get a drivers license if they take their passport, statement from the school which shows that they are full time student.

In your personal settings you can reverse that setting.
Go to 'User CP', top left of page.
Go to 'Thread display options'
Change the option in 'Thread display'.

They're still good. Had one last August in Istanbul and spent a day in Kuşadası. Great place.






ps You may be the only Turk here......but there are a lot of turkeys already here.

Anatolian Shepherd (Kangal in Turkish) is an amazing breed, you can call their name from around 5 kilometers and they will still come and find you!! Incredible!
