Good evening guys! Hope everyone is having a good night! I went to the shop tonight and washed the Explorer and did a few other things on it as well.

Hmmm ... tempting ...

I think the price is high if it's not running, even if he KNOWS it's just two bad injectors.

Yeah that is a lot for a rusty that truck that has no doubt been used hard and now has supposedly two bad injectors.

I do have a nice pair of boots now thanks to mine falling apart after the first day.
Curious why you hate winter but went on a trip to snowmobile.

Must be one of those inside things

Just because he doesn't like winters doesn't mean he doesn't like to snowmobile especially when you can go to the mountains and get out of this flat land we live in. I myself don't care to own a sled but every time I have been sledding I really liked it but I am by no means going to go buy one.

Oh, I thought Chris didn't like snowmobiling because he hates winter. Just doesn't like winter in his backyard. I might have to try mountain riding sometime

Yeah ... the more I think about it, the more I think I'll pass. It was a work truck which more than likely means it was beat on. I've got enough issues. I don't need more.
