The Envoys are nice. They have a pretty smooth ride (compared to the X) and are well appointed. I like them.

The Pioneer DEH-P7400MP and DEH-P7500MP are both good. But you could get the DEH-P5500MP for a little less. Same sound quality, just slightly fewer features. Overall good unit.

Thanks Robb.

I got the 3.73 LS gears. Will this be powerful enough to push a set of 30x9.5 tires?

I just sent in my application. I suppose I must now purchase a decal. Gotta represent for GA.

Where do I sign up?

The only people that I see driving them are girls and one of my male friends. Pretty reliable though.

Very nice.

Hmmmmmmm....OK Stephen, I never said that he said that he liked the 4Runner better. I also never denied that, in many cases, it is more reliable than the Explorer. As far as arrogance and sliced bread......what the hell. :rolleyes:

Damn dude. You own an Explorer and obviously care enough about it to be a member of this board. Why would you talk so badly about it? If you have such a hard on for the 4Runner, get one and sell your X.

Might just need a tune up.

'98 with just under 57K

Today my dad took the family car, a '99 Taurus SE, to the shop to get an oil change and replace the antifreeze. No big deal. However, he said that the repair shop made a mistake and broke the thermostat. The shop wanted my dad to pay for the cost of the thermostat and the labor to replace it...

That was a good deal. Enjoy.

what brand? How much did it cost?

Thank God, I narrowly avoided sheer embarrassment.:o

If I were you, I would go check it out just to make sure everything is as it should be. Is it a 6 or 8 cylinder?

Yeah, I'm only at 54,000 miles. Thanks.

My symptoms are these: When I go to start my car in the morning after a cold night, the engine immediately shoots up to 1800-2000 RPMs. Right after that, the tachometer drops to read about 400-500 RPMs and the vehicle shakes violently. Then it will surge up to about 2000 RPMs and then it will...

Annabanana, how much does it cost to have it tested at Autozone?

If it is a computerized odometer then there is a chance that there is a malfunction in your engine control unit.

I assume that it is a mechanical odometer. The gears that turn the numbers could be stuck or just stopped working. I don't think the speedometer has much to do with how the odometer works, otherwise your speedometer would not be working either.

If you are talking about the cold idle problem, I don't think the engine light comes on unless the engine just shuts off.

You could sell them to some moron for some quick cash.

It looks like a crossover between a Cadillac Escalade (the grille) and a Volkswagen Jetta and one of those new Toyota 4Runners.

Lifted Explorers are rare, but I think I am one of very few to have ever witnessed a lifted Isuzu Amigo. It was a late model with what looked to be a 2-3" body lift. Passed it on I-85 just south of Atlanta a couple of months ago. Strangest thing I've ever seen.

Just curious. But I know it sucks.

The only problem with Bleach White is that it is very corrosive. If you don't get all of the excess off of the rims, it rusts real quick.

Wonder what kind of gas mileage that thing gets? :eek:

Thanks for the information. Do I have to take it back to a Ford dealership, because I bought it from a Chrysler dealership.

So this is the Owner Notification Program that Ford has to repair the faulty manifold gaskets and o-rings that are causing idle problems in the 98 X. What are the age and mileage requirements for the problem to be fixed? Can I take it to the dealer from whom I purchased my X or do I need to...

Is 00M12 free of charge?

Rinse the tires, let them dry, and then use some STP "Son of a Gun." It's the white foam stuff. Don't have to wipe off or anything. It justs soaks in. Good shine for about 5-6 days.

I don't have any experience with the OHV, so I was wondering: What are the biggest differences between the OHV and the SOHC engines. How do they compare as far as power?
