Me too, bought $100 yesterday..

87 octane 3.099

Still is nice to got 700+ miles w/o having to fillup all the time though.
That IS worth something also.

Now, IF I could do the bigger bladder MOD on myself and my wife..

I like these numbers (that is to make the Toyota Prius Prudes look bad)!!

Care if I repost that from time to time?

I'm not sure, but I'll find out. I know that it's factory because when my truck was repainted, we ordered new moldings from ford that come painted. They came with the chrome. The bad thing is that when they painted my truck, the ******* that prepped it used mineral spirits on the door jambs and wiped the door label clean of all markings. I have no idea what any info is now.

Also, mine came with the clear jeweled headlights and clear markers. The only thing I can think is my X is a late 01 build? Is there anyway the build date and other info can be had by the VIN number?
