Actually it should be the other way around! We can't seem to stay out of the way
of everybody else, I have yet to cause an accident, the only damage I've inflicted
was due to a little off roading. In all actuality however you'd probably be best off
running into me because I don't let things go to the insurance company unless the
damage is over $100.... so far only one claim has gone to insurance and that was
for when my windshield got smashed out, that cost me $100 deductible. Most of
the other accidents I could see there wasn't damage outside of bent bolts and I'm
usually in a hurry so it's not worth getting into accident reports.... now if I were
driving a 2000 Ranger, that would be a different story, there'd be an accident
report every time a shopping cart smashed into its bumper! :oP

Joe,

You notice he has modified the engine with headers, injectors, a chip,
etc., all of which tends to help performance in the mid to higher engine
> speeds. Then he has much larger rear tires, which drastically reduce the
effective ratio of the 4.11s to probably near the low to mid 3.00s.
Whenever you hear of someone using a 4 series rear ratio, look carefully at
the size
tire they're running. You'll almost always find a MUCH larger
tire, unless you are dealing with a vehicle built for acceleration, i.e.,
drag racing, or a purpose-built off-road vehicle.

Page has been redone and the header pics are added. They aren't the best,
as the room is limited to see them on the engine...

Also changed it so it's all thumbnails until you WANT to look at the larger
pic... loads faster!

Might be so but it would seem that, as a magnet does, you draw them to
you. I would not want to be around you. HaHa! Really, good luck--you
need it!

Take Care and Have a Good Day.
CUL8R, Mike
