Right on,
What kind of truck do you have?
My family and I will be in Hilo over this coming Thanksgiving weekend.
Maybe weʻll see you there.
If you know of any more FTE people, let them know that this
chapter is still alive.

I guess y'all don't have AutoZone here- I've been driving around O'ahu in a rental car for a few days now and haven't seen any. What's the preferred parts dealer around here?

The island is beautiful! My old Ford is still on the ship (ETA June 1), but I've had a great time so far!

Howzit gang,

I go to checkers or carquest also, sometimes NAPA. Checker little easier to buy online and pickup in store. Sometimes the web price is a lot cheaper than in store.

Darren - I'm driving an '05 excursion 6.0L that I picked up in vegas in '07. Like the truck, get plenty room inside! Only thing I did so far was put '08 mirrors so I can tow my trailer. Looking for F250 or F350 springs now, to provide a firmer ride and a little lift. Anyone know of springs anywhere in Hawaii?!? Shipping from CA or anywhere else is an arm and two legs.

Aloha,
James

I just bought an electric Autometer oil pressure gauge from Ronʻs Performance Center.
I priced the same unit from Summit at 90.00 shipping included.
I got my OPG for around 83.00. The only catch to using Ronʻs and getting
a lower cost is having to wait.
My OPG came in with their regular stock shippment. It took about one month to arrive.
Good thing I was not in a rush.
