US Photos of my candy red XLT

I hope this link works, it's on my facebook and I made the album available for everyone to see.

http://www.facebook.com/media/set/fb...2044.504011443

Let me know if it doesn't work, and if that's the case I'll take suggestions of a place to load the pics. Thanks!

We would like to see pictures of 2011 Explorers in their element. Photos on the road less traveled, during your outdoor nature trips, camping trips, etc.

Here, I'll start by posting some example photos for a jumpstart.

good start. You can upload them to any popular photo sharing web site such as www.photobucket.com and then past then link the photos over to hear so that they display in the thread. When you post photos n the thread use the picture button at the top to insert the appropriate tabs.

I haven't been able to. My wife's been sick with walking pneumonia, so I've been busy with her. Just gotta find time in the schedule to take it out back.

So, the parking lot at the hockey arena doesn't count?

The only place near me would be about that exciting, but with a little grass instead of pavement. If I go drive where I can wheel...I'd take the Jeep. Even my 08 Ex never left pavement. For me, this is a people and thing hauler. I will probably take it camping this summer, but I highly doubt it will be on anything that a car can't handle.

Either way, with my schedule and the crap weather we have lately...not a chance I'd have time for a while. If I find anything, I will post a pic for S&G.

At this point, the first one to post a pic of a 2011 in their front yard will win...
