    south of jackson, michigan

    Sound like fun. Jonnesville is right down the road from me. My X is 4x2, am I gonna get stuck?
  2. Iraqi Secret Police building

    Iraqi Secret Police building

    This building was in downtown Bagdhad. It was hit by Tomahawks at the outset of the war. I wish I would have taken a picture of the other side as there was simply nothing left of it. The building next to it (not in the pic) was a hospital. Complete with torture chambers.
  3. Saddam Defaced

    Saddam Defaced

    Heh, heh. I love this one. I didn't do it, but I wish I did. Some Marine took a USMC sticker (with the Eagle, Globe, and Anchor), and put it over Saddam's face. If you look closely, you'll note that someone hit it with what appear to be a tommato before the sticker was applied. - Downtown Bagdhad.
  4. Iraqi Looters

    Iraqi Looters

    These Iraqis had that truck so loaded down, they couldn't fit inside, so where do they ride? Yup, you guessed it. That thing on the back that the Iraqi is riding on is a generator, and no, it does not have wheels. To those who think we should have stopped the looting, we were a little busy at...

    Some of my handy work

    I never missed an oppertunity (neither did any of the other Marines) to destroy a pictire of Saddam.
  6. Happy to be alive

    Happy to be alive

    The title says it all. This was taken the morning after a verrry long night.
  7. A moment to relax

    A moment to relax

    This was taken just outside Bagdhad. You'll note that we are wearing green suits. Those are NBC protective suits (Nuclear, Chemical, Biological). Our cammies were packed in our rucks.
  8. Stuck

    Stuck

    Stuck in the mud up to our axles. I guess that dry riverbed wasn't so dry.
  9. Muzzle Flash

    What do you love about your Explorer?

    Oh sure. Bust my bubble. Sorry 'bout that. Typo, inverted numbers and whatnot. You're Welcome. Glad to do it.

    What do you love about your Explorer?

    I just recently bought my X, but I already know I'll never drive anything else. When this X goes to pot, I'll just buy another. It is perfect for any kind of outing. I'm planning a camping trip next weekend to the desert with some of my shooting buddies for a little long range shooting...
  13. Custom Remington 700

    Custom Remington 700

    I spent over a year putting this rifle together in my head. I had it built by George Gardner of GA Precision. It is capable of sub MOA groups (under 1" @ 100yds less than 5" @ 500yds). My personal best with this rifle is 1/3 MOA with a 1" group at 300yds.
  14. 1,000 yard target

    1,000 yard target

    Even with the 10x scope, the target looked like a meatball.

    ANY RUNS NEAR MICHIGAN???

    I'd love to get in on a run (my first). I just picked up my first X. It is an '03 Sport. It is a 4X2, but I'm willing to tag along if the trail is resonably mild. I'm returning to Michigan towards the end of June - Middle of July.

    Modifications Vs Factory Warranty

    Hi folks, I just bout my X ('03 Sport). I want to do a 3" lift. If I lift the X, it will void my warranty, will it not? Will it void the whole warranty? or just that portion pertaining to the suspension?

    Just bought mine...

    Exterior appearance for the most part. I'm already planning a 2-3" lift and some 33" tires. I've got a set of side steps that I need to put on. I've got a CB that I bought for my ranger, but never installed, I need to get a decent antenae.

    Lund Step Sides

    My wife's former vehicle was a 2001 Ranger Edge. She traded it in (lease ended) at the same time I did (two days ago). I bought her a set of side steps for her truck, but she never put them on. They are still in my garage, in the box. The side of the box says that they will fit the '95-'00...

    What can I tow?

    Okay, so help me out here. I'm a gun person, not a car/truck person, what is tongue weight, and how does one determine it?
  23. G

    What can I tow?

    I probably will, but I won't have time to do it until I get back to Michigan.

    What can I tow?

    Thanks guys, I was worried that I would have to put on a Reese to tow anything more than 350. Where ever I can find gainful employment. I have family in the central and south east parts of the state, my son and ex live in the northern lower, and I have good friends in the western lower. So wher...

    What can I tow?

    I just got my first Explorer. It is a manual tranny, 4x2 XLS Sport. I'm moving back to Michigan in a couple months, and the USMC will be moving most of my stuff, but they won't move my guns w/o insurance. I'd rather move them myself since I trust no one. I have a pretty considerable...
