hehe everyone has there way of dealing right?
i feel bad not driving the excursion every day, but now i'm driving all 4 of them switching off but mainly using my explorer again. 14-15mpg in town is great compared to the 8-9 of the excursion.
hopefully i'll be rollin in some cash though and wont have to worry about gas prices

Alaskanex,
I'm not 100% sure, but in your last picture It looks like the ex is towing a motor home.
I thought that type of rv had an engine??

lol i was just parked infront of our class A ford motorhome. has a 460 in it. we are planning on selling it soon.
i found this old vid, i dont need to hear if its unsafe or not. i used my common sense and felt it was safe. anyhow since loosing the speed limiter after 105ish the odometer and miles go blank until you get under 100mph again...odd?

they are projector headlights on my explorer, not everyones cup of tea but great light output!
i've had the STTs since 2007 and i really like them! it never really sees any dirt but when it has they have treated me well. they are kinda loud since they are much like a mud tire. i really do like the ATR's on my excursion though! the other one to look at is the cooper zeon LTZ i had them on my old '04 and loved them..nice agressive looking tire but very streetable.
that vid has never been posted btw.
