Hello from Sweden

Just bought my first Ford, a Explorer -95.I'm very pleased with the car, but i think i need some help from you guyes,because in Sweden,Ford is a Europan
car!When i go to the Ford dealer here in Sundsvall,it take him about one
hour to find the Explorer parts in the sparepart list!

We alredy have some snow up here,and i'm looking forward to test my new
car in some hevy snow(maybe some nice fotos too....)

Bye bye,and thank you for a nice website....

//Börje
