I have kept mine in the garage since before the first road salting. I still hope to fluid film the underside before I drag it out of the garage. If the Expedition didn't have a broken 4wd shift fork, I could probably go all winter without the Excursion coming out. I have done just about all the upgrades I planned on other than a non-rusty front bumper, but will wait for spring at least.

I have one of those Milwaukee ratchets and it is awesome, only rated at 35 ft-lbs but using it in place of a hand ratchet is nice.

I've got a Holiday oil change planned very "soon", now if only I had a garage that I could fit into and not a driveway covered in snow the "soon" could become a little more of a real date.

Why the Ford "gold" coolant? Why not the better HD OAT Extended Life Coolant?

I went with the Ford gold because I had Ford do the switch and I was unaware of the HD OAT. Thank Stewart.

Amen! I've been away from home for the past week and a half and I swear it's 15 pounds or more I've gained.

New lift supports for the rear hatch. Long overdue, and now it doesn't hit me on the head when cold anymore, LOL!
