I also have a large patch on the passenger rear quarter right on...

    gas mileage?

    i've got a 99 XLT and get about 280 miles to the tank. Is that normal? anything i can replace/check out that will increase my mileage? I figured removing my sub might help a little and it did absolutely nothing.

    finally have money but need one last decision

    I finally have money, but need to make one last decision. I'm in between two different subs. A Fi BL 18 or Audioque HDC318 Give me your input, im leaning towards the Audioque just because it is about 40 or 50 bucks cheaper.

    New KC Foglights

    I just got a new pair of KC fog lights in trade for a small power inverter. I'm curious how hard it would be for one to make the bumper mounting brackets for a 99 explorer at home with no bending tools on hand.

    New little find

    Today while checking my driver side ball joint i happened to notice a little plug hanging by its cap on the lower radiator mount. So i guess it turns out that i have an engine block heater. What exactly is the advantage to this, and is it stock on a 99 XLT?
