Crab cakes, football & lifted vehicles! That's what Maryland does! I'm proud to be the newest member of ECX - East Coast Xplorers! I'm getting a large decal made to go across the upper portion of my windshield w/ our club name. PM me if anyone else is interested in one as well. My SUV is very known in Maryland & on multiple Ford Explorer pages on Instagram such as @explorermafia, @explorerenthusiasts, @nasty_explorer, @exploreranclub, @dope.explorers, etc... I take Dora THE Explorer 2.0 off-roading to a lot of trails around the state year-round & to the SoMd Truck meets. If anyone is interested in linking up or bringing their Explorer sometime just hit me up! God Bless!

Its crazy to think that I joined this forum in 2011 and I haven't posted in the thread that concerns my area!!
I should start with a little "about me" but I think I am horrible when talking about myself..
So, I started driving when I was 11, yup, the driveway stuff, getting to steer on the backroads and in parking lots from time to time.. This grew into snatchin the keys late at night just to drive around.. Crashed a car or two, ended up "borrowing" my Uncles truck, but his job considered it theft, so I "went to a place for bad kids" until I turned 18.. When I came home I was faced with a choice, low and fast, or lifted and slow.. Building lifted trucks didn't help much and I had a suspended license almost two years after passing the test..
Since I could no longer road trip, I started trail riding, trying to make it from one end of my county to the other without being "on the road" to require a "license" but still go visit friends and get out..
Here we are 16 years later, I have a license and my county wide trail is finally starting to grow back, but not for long!! I'll keep the license, but my kids have caught the offroading bug, and want to build trail rigs..
For the longest time we've built our Explorers simply for capability but to remain street legal, now that we own three, two STs and a 5.0 Expo we have some room to go from mild to wild..
I still have a month or so to fine tune and get her rollin, but anyone close to the 15022 (Charleroi) & 15063 (Monongahela) zip codes (Washington County, Pennsylvania) and are looking to wheel, maybe put together a monthly ECX meet, feel free to message.. Even if the Explorer we bring won't go too far off the trail, the friends and family fun times are more than worth the time ;)

I'm at the other end of the state now, or i'd look you up. But my wife grew up in Penn Hills and all my kids were born in Monroeville. Sometimes i miss Plum Boro, lived there 10 years, but I grew up in Philly area. My Ex is bone stock, but i get the tires dirty on weekends when i can, hard to find time with work, but I will be up in the game lands next week for deer season. Best to you and yours for a safe and happy Thanksgiving!
