Lol thanks, yes I love this truck. Never thought I'd say that about a Ford but I sure do wish I'd had the extra money so I didn't have to trade in the GP. I miss that car, If I had the money I would have kept it and put the work into it peice by piece. But heck I just can't wait until winter is over to pull out the Monte

Its got some surface scratches and one thats pretty long, some buffing should lighten it, but hey its a truck it gets good mpg and rides very smooth, has low miles and does the job its suppose to. It dosent have to be very perfect I got it as a DD so my car would get the special treatment

Lol wow thats a lot. I have one lol just don't feel like messing with it in the cold since I have no garage. I've accumulated a lot of car upkeep supplies. Tire shine, 2 kinds of rim cleaner, 2 kinds of paste wax, bottle of the thick turtle wax, turtle wax quick spray wax, Turtle wax synthetic Ice wax, 2 bottle of windshield washer fluid, 4 bottles of antifreeze, the purple window cleaner dont remeber the name right now lol, 2 kinds of interior plastics cleaners, leather conditioner, the black detailer spray and a lot more I cant think of right now. lol plus all the cones, waxing and shop towels, tire pressure gauges and more lol I've collected a lot ohh and can't forget my small tool collection I'm starting to build up for when I have a garage.

My 2002 (new bodystyle, 5 speed automatic) Ford Explorer with the 4.0 V6 always got 18 mpg. It's dropped a little, but I think it needs new plug wires. If I had a full size truck getting 16-18 mpg, I'd be happy with it. Might have to look at an F-150.
