Figure I should update since I haven't posted in a while. Went to KCIR last Sat(Nov. 20th) to run and achieved a new PB, 15.145 in the 1/4. Only mods are tune, catback exhaust, 2nd/3rd seats removed as well as spare tire/jack. Otherwise she's stock on 20's

Cooling off-

TekMan05's Mustang-

In-car vid of me Racing TekMan05(click on picture)-

Vid TekMan05 made. My first run is against an LS3 Vette and I ate him up because you never see him after we take off

JoeyNoodles...
Your Ex is looking good

*******************
Hmm...limited02....there's something missing from your engine bay!!!
A Cold Air Intake...

But,
You have some awesome videos posted,
The corvette run... ha ha, I hate to tell ya, but it seems as it was ahead enough that the angle of the shot towards your X blocked the corvette...but good try

(sorry if I am wrong). Be awesome if an Explorer could beat a vette, but maybe yours did

Jager · 11-24-2010, 12:23 AM

Just wanted to share my ex in mud pits in SoCal

He actually flat kicked my ass! I was just kidding about eating him up because you never see him till the end(yes, I blocked the view of him). I had the camera setup when I ran him, but it wasn't recording

There will be more mods! Just paid the Ex off last week so my wallet hates me right now.

*NHarris* · 11-25-2010, 12:26 AM

Well....it snowed

So I decided to test out my new tires...they worked great!

I did have to tow a stuck mustang out... quite the interesting experience...white out, pulling a mustang from the rear (nose faced opposite direction as the nose of my X). This guy was flying down the road and ended up at a dead end (fairly steep hill)...and of course...the guy with the SUV has to save the day...
And she did quite excellent pulling that mustang up that hill...only a class II hitch and 3.55 Diff...max towing is about 3500 pounds and that mustang was 3665 lbs

More snow pictures

*BigRondo* · 11-30-2010, 05:46 PM

Looking good Nate.

I just noticed the 4.0 badge on your grille. Me likey.

armysoldier30263 · 11-30-2010, 06:49 PM

yeah nate with the blacked out grille the 4.0 just seems to be hovering there looks BA bro

therover1991 · 11-30-2010, 09:38 PM

Nate, the car looks great, as does the snow. Cant wait for some snow in the northeast so I can go skiing.

Also as the other mentioned the 4.0 looks amazing on your grille.

*not8taxi* · 12-01-2010, 09:58 PM

great view man that looks awesome

*NHarris* · 12-02-2010, 04:54 PM

Thanks everyone for the comments...I thought with the 4.0 Emblem I could differentiate my X from the others here with a billet grille and ford logo. It sticks really good, proved it by when the temp was at -10 degrees...
I ripped off my front license plate and mounts that day

I parked my X in a snow bank ha ha When I came back out to the truck, I saw my license plate off the bull bar so I just used some RTV sealant for the holes....oh well.

*lynchy wa* · 12-02-2010, 09:41 PM

Yeah mate, the 4.0 looks awesome. Wicked unique. How's the parking practice goin' in the snow?

I finally got some picks with me new rubber on. I'm pretty happy with 'em and they gave me an extra inch clearance!

*NHarris* · 12-02-2010, 10:01 PM

You make me want a "roo bar" for my ex!!! But your ex looks good

! With those A/T tires you should be able to hit up the outback.

*lynchy wa* · 12-02-2010, 10:13 PM

Yeah hahaha I'll have to get to the desert again one day. The tyres are nexen roadstone, a mate owns a tyre shop and gave me a good deal. I didnt know anything about the brand, but apparently they're made in korea and nexens parent company is michellin so I spose we'll just have to wait and see. Fairly aggressive tread, silica compound, directional and quiet at highway speeds (70 mph)

jasonthebombero · 12-05-2010, 02:14 PM

Been coming here for answers for a while. But this is my first time posting pics of my X.

Here they are:

Here is a short vid of some flooding that happened not long after i lifted the X. Some places the water was over the tops of my tires!

Glad I lifted it.

*Ronin8002* · 12-05-2010, 02:22 PM

Nice truck! I take it you're running a body lift and strut spacers? Those look like on 285s
