If we buy this, I'm going to leave one of the pickups in the garage, then we can run either the Explorer or the Town Car back and forth

I "smell that smell"'so I'm on the look out. It could be an improperly vented vent pipe (lets hope)

You guys talking good stuff and I just had a cheeseburger.

Charlie, I usually leave a car down here. But !@#$%^ NY salt finally got the best of the frame. I've got another I'll bring down when I get the ethanol damage taken care of. Maybe in July.

I'm looking at an 02 'Sploder for cheap. Needs TLC. Not too bad of shape, under 100k. I don't need it, but if the price is right, ....
it's a 4.6 v8 awd. If it's something that should follow you home instead of me, let me know.....
