    Moab 2011 - May 21

    I don't think cheap is an option for motels anymore... I made reservations at the Roadway, $139/night. I guess I will tag along; I've still never been to Moab! :)

    Official Colorado Colors Run 09 - Ouray: Sept 4-7th, 2009

    I wonder if we could get an Explorer up and ready to go in time... or just take my Trooper and deal with the tormentors? We miss CCR. :(

    4-Link, 3-Link, Radius Arms???

    This is really Ryan... :) 1500 is way way to much right now. I would much rather try to find something in the $500 ish range if possible. :)

    4-Link, 3-Link, Radius Arms???

    Yeah no kidding! It's like we're all busy or something!!! We could be back in the game by late summer/fall. Stoopid HOA wants everyone to have a complete backyard by July 1st so now we're having to dump money into that... it's always something! The beast has been down since March 2003...

    97 Rear brakes sticking. ABS??? Proportioning valve??? What is it???

    I'm glad THAT's over with... I like my Explorer again. I'm not with Ryan for his mechanical skills. :D

    Found my problem

    AND it was ME who said it sounded like my brakes were the problem. :D The wife was correct! Even if no one cares about this thread, at least it shows that I win. What I win, I do not know. :p

    Official Moab 2004 Chitchat Thread

    Dre

    Andre is great to work with--no problems whatsoever, even when we had the wrong part. I shipped it back to him, he refunded my money no problem.

    Cracked head gasket @ 24K!

    I know, but I always take such a damn loss with upside-downess and I vowed I would not do that this time since it was "near new", and with the big warranty I never had to worry about problems, right? I am a female though and can change my mind tomorrow. ;)

    Cracked head gasket @ 24K!

    SOOO.... What's it been, 3 weeks? It's going back in while I have surgery Thursday and won't be driving. Leaking again, seems to be in a different place. :mad:

    Cracked head gasket @ 24K!

    http://www.ford-trucks.com/dcforum/expedition/444.html And I am an idiot. http://www.alldata.com/TSB/20/012054DT.html http://www.carsurvey.org/review_38499.html http://www.cartrackers.com/Forums/live/Ford/397.html But for now, I still really like my Expedition. Ask me again after...

    Cracked head gasket @ 24K!

    It's the 4.6. After reading up, it seems more common with this one. I didn't get a new motor, but at least it was done when they said it would be. It looks like they replaced more than one gasket, too. I noticed it was a little smelly when I would walk to the front of it, since I am about...

    Cracked head gasket @ 24K!

    So my '01 Expedition has has dribbling since I bought it at 24K. We thought it was Ryan's truck for a long time, nooo it's my brand new truck! I called the dealer we bought it from to bring it in for a look and he asked if it was a greasy/watery leak, I said maybe, he said it was the A/C and...

    Opinions on the 03 Expedition?

    I like my '01 a lot and I've had it for a month. :) It has A/C, power everything, 4WD, and I'm not wishing for anything else right now except a CD player, and I am picky! The thing gets better MPG with the smaller motor than my Nissan minivan did (15-17 mpg). I've never had any complaint...

    We fixed all our Van problems!

    We fixed Ry's Exploder problem also--front end is toast. Got a '95 F150. Nothing like buying a house and 2 cars in 1 week, sheesh. Please sir, can I have some more financial pressure? :rolleyes: I don't like dealers that much, but we did work with some decent guys this time. I still always...

    We fixed all our Van problems!

    That's right! :p Actually I really want Ryan to get something but he wants to wait a little longer. His front end is shot. We drove an '00 F250 Powersmoke 4 door short bed at the dealer last night--oh man! The numbers were good, but we want a better cushion now that things are on the...

    Land Rover Discovery?

    I love the look of the Discovery and really wanted one, but ditto on what everyone else has said. Also, little room for a carseat in the back. Just as bad as a car's backseat. If you like them, actually I've found the Troopers and Rodeos have the most kid/leg room for kids in their...

    Help-minivan--stinky when idling!

    Matt, it looks like Saturday after all. Give us a ring if you want. :) Craig & g/f will be staying with us, we could do dinner later too...

    1979 "Smokey" Trans Am

    WOW, and I have it in writing! "Listen to Maranda" My dad's is a Super Duty 455. :D :D :D If you watch that movie Dazed and Confused, it's the EXACT same TA, color and everything. I guess I already said that. LOL His g/f is giving it to her son if/when he graduates high school. WTF...

    1979 "Smokey" Trans Am

    My dad has a '73 TA w/ a 455, exactly like the one in Dazed and Confused. 455s are gooood builders. :) His seems to be fairly low maintenance as well. That's my expert opinion...

    Help-minivan--stinky when idling!

    How about you take my place? You and Ryan haven't had a date in a long time. ;) I think he may try to go tomorrow actually, since he isn't working, otherwise Saturday with the rest of the yahoos out there.

    Help-minivan--stinky when idling!

    Hey you never told me this! Date night, whoo hoo! LOL :D We seem to always hit those places when it's cold and/or muddy.

    Help-minivan--stinky when idling!

    I just bought it in June, so far it's been a fine vehicle running-wise. Never again though, will I buy from this particular dealer since they did not seem to perform any sort of inspection on the thing--I had to point out how jacked the electrical system was and legally they had to fix it...
