New guy from Florida

Hey guys. Just picked up a 97 Expedition today! Adding to the fleet lol. First Ford I've had since my 94 Mustang a few years ago. Currently also have a 86 Monte Carlo SS, 95 Trans Am, 98 Dodge Ram, and a 2002 Suzuki GSXR 750. I guess you could say I like cars . Looking forward to hanging out on the forum! By the way- my screen name was supposed to be SilverSS but I must have missed the v . How do I get that changed? Thanks

Thanks for the welcome and thanks for changing my name . It was hard for me to remember to delete the v- usually remembered when I couldn't log on lol. Tony the Monte is my baby! Been riding in it since it was new- then I bought it from my mom in 99 then put a big block in it as soon as I could save up enough money. Got a number of things I found on the Expy that need attention- all the usual things from what I gather. Ball joints, tie rods, steering bearing, exhaust manifold, brakes, ac compressor, and it was leaking gas out of the top of the tank when I filled it up. I ordered all the parts and most are here so I'll tear into it in the next few days. BTW it's a 5.4 4wd 3.73's with tow package and has 96,000 original miles. Even though I knew it needed work it was too good of a deal to pass up- and I needed something bigger than my pickup to take all of us on vacations . Here's a short vid of the Monte last time I had it up @ Gainesville raceway.
