My New Kodiak Brown Explorer!!!

Here is a picture of my new Ex. We love it. I've had many compliments on the color. Still working on my first tank of gas. I've been getting 16 mpg. 95% of my driving has been small in town trips with a lot of stops. I plan on taking her out for a photo shoot but haven't been able to get much further than my driveway.

Looks like a great spot to have an Explorer owner reunion/party Fill the driveway with a line of polished rides.

Love it! I just picked up a 2013 Kodiak Brown Ex on Tuesday night. I haven't been out to get any pictures of it yet. It has been very rainy.

When I saw this color on the lot, I had to have it. It is a sweet color. There are not many around, as of yet anyway.

Congrats Stevenailor! I'm the only Kodiak Brown Ex in my area (so far). I'm sure more will pop up in the future. Yes the weather here has been crappy too.

Okay, I was finally able to get the shot I've been thinking about for awhile. Here is it.



Dang, it took me forever to get this one. I still have a few other ideas in mind but who knows how long it will be before I have the time.
