New but Not

I have been lurking for years and want to say thanks for all the sage advice. Solved many issues here. I joined in an effort to find an answer to an abs question in the 2003 area. Thanks to all the posters for the great advice.

New member here! Just got a '91 Clubwagon XLT and loving it. Only has 82,000 miles on it. It sat up for 3 years and the paint and interior need some love but it runs really good. It used to be a church van. I'll be using it as a work van for my side business. Mainly hauling sheet goods from Home Depot and then dropping off projects to clients. I'll get a gallery up soon. Figured I would join the forum early instead of lurking for 3 or 4 months before deciding to.

Checking in from Pennsylvania

Hello all.

I’ve recently acquired a 2000 Excursion Limited, 6.8L 4X4 with the intention of pulling a 31’ travel trailer cross country at the end of this summer. Most of my essential maintenance and upgrades are finished, and the family and I are planning to head out in just a couple weeks. I figured it might be a good idea to have some relationships built around the country in case I find myself needing some guidance in an unfamiliar area.

Thanks for for making this resource available. I’m looking forward to digging in to what’s here and contributing a bit myself.

I'm new to the site currently seeking advice on my 2003 f250 5.4L. In the pas few months it randomly shuts off while driving with no warning however I still have all lights. I am not able to get it to restart in neutral I have to come to a complete stop and put in park and it will start back up. It wont always throw a code and when it does it says its P0174. I have replaced the throttle position sensor and have checked fuses in my cab fuse box and everything is fine fuse wise. However within 5-10 minutes of having the truck on and idling the fuse box get hot. I have thought it may be the idle air valve but I'm curious if anyone else had these same issues or an idea of what it could be.

Talking New Guy - PNW

Greetings, Transitioning from big Chevy to hopefully small Ranger Lariat. Retired now and still need a PU but after 14 years with my low mileage Chevy I am ready for something new. Test drove all the mid sized PU's and was close to bringing home a new F150 crew but as much as I like it driving a big PU around town is getting challenging so I am opting for smaller now. Drove all the brands and only the Ranger spoke to me. I really like the Honda Ridgeline for practicality and storage but the Ford has more towing ability and way more performance! I just hope the EcoBoost reliability and 10 speed trans does not bite me later on with problems. So negotiating right now with a few dealers for best price this month!
