Congrats on your new ride, looks very nice in Pearl White! With leather it must be a full load and the 5.0 must make it a rocket.
Is there 5.0 emblems on the front fenders? One modification I can think of is to remove `em for a real sleeper.

Thanks Guys
Well its the wifes ride so I don't think I need to pull the V8 emblems off the fenders I don't think she will be racing people. But you never know.
Still finding a couple of little things wrong door ajar light stays on, seems to be a problem with the dashlight dimming switch and the on board compressor for the tow package has a leak somewhere. but overall pretty nice unit so far

Our 98 Ranger is the same, the door ajar light stays on as do the interior lights and the power windows quit working all of a sudden after sitting over winter. Overall it has very few problems and nothing serious with decent fuel ecnomy.
I think you both will be very happy with the Expy.

You Bet I will it looks like it was running about 12 L per 100km so thats about 22mpg or so. I'm happy with that. That was when Marion took me to the airport. I'm back at work now.
