i got my motorcraft fuel pump/sending unit in the mail today. i'll be dropping it off Monday night to have that done on tue. hopfully that will fix my fuel gauge issue. also going to have my left side manifold leak fixed..missing 2 studs.

broke 2 of my 4 painted to match ford splash gaurds which makes me sad going to order more and paint them to match again.

also did an oil change. after 5.5k miles she did not use or drop a bit of oil. still perfectly full



pic of my new fleet w/the bronco in it. now i have 2 discontinued ford fullsize SUVs!



went out and visited my old excursions..the '04 is still going strong. the '00 is giving up parts lol





random pics...we've been getting alot of snow. luckily the excursion doesnt sit out much in it but she has been caught out once or twice.

Got any plans for mods on the Bronco yet? I'd love to get on, but all the Broncos up here are severely rusted!

Welcome to the discontinued club, I have a 96 bronco that shares the daily driving duties with the ex, you'd like the old girl factory fire engine red with color match grill, steps, and bumpers! Love my big SUVs! Can't beat them

I'd like to have that Crown Vic. Is it true that the police had high performance chips in them?

Now that's saying something, even for Alaska! Wish we'd get some of that snow, last year at this time there was over a foot on the ground!

No. It's a big myth. The computer was programmed so the transmission shifted later. But that's all.

I suppose it could be called a performance tune moreseo than a perforrmance chip.

yeah we have had 32" of snow fall officially and more unofficially the record is 38.8" and we are supposed to have snow the rest of the week so we may break the record!

i really wanted a 96 351 EB but i could not find one so my '94 xlt 5.0 will do i guess lol


so after work tomorrow i'm dropping the excursion off to get the fuel pump installed and fix my 2 broken exhaust manifold studs. next pay check i'll be buying 2 new sets of factory splash guards and painting them to match since i have now broken one front and one rear one on snow banks...ugh
