First Explorer!!!

luvmrjusn · 06-10-2012, 12:26 AM

I just recently became the owner of my first Explorer. I'm not however new to the ford family, as i've owned many fords in the past. I will be needing to ask some advice soon, but i'll hold my tongue on that until i've taken the time to search the site. I don't want to do any over posting. Look forward to gleaning some insightful help from all your expertise, and perhaps even sharing in my what "to" and "not to do" 's .
