Thanks! It's truly a beast that I feel no other car can match up to.

Sorry if I've been unclear, I am really bad at articulating my point on forums.

My dad was so upset when our mechanic told him that he forgot what was wrong. Today we're going there to decide whether we're getting it fixed or not, and to talk to our mechanic, and try to get a feel for how much DIY stuff there is.

Yeah, they don't really have much of a personality. I wish my dad would have the work done to my explorer, but he says it's not worth it. I still want a drive-able car, and beggars can't be choosers, so I'll just take what I can get.

Both of those look very good. Just check for rust, it seems to be a common problem on these. I recently had to part with mine because of rot, as well as several other issues. If it's all in good condition, it seems like a good deal. I had the V8 with the 4-speed automatic, and it was super...

Found a good car for a good price http://nh.craigslist.org/ctd/4103177709.html What do you guys think? Me and my dad went to check it out today and it runs fantastic, has only 125,000 miles, and NO rust at all. It seems like a good car. I'm still very sad about my Explorer, but I guess I...

I learned on my parents Corolla, so I kinda got spoiled there.

That's a huge chunk of the issue. The left rocker panel is almost ogne, and there literally is no rocker panel on the right. it needs a new cat, and something else in the exhaust (I forget what). It also needs new tires, and a ball joint. There were some other things too. It totaled to...

Our mechanic told us it will start breaking soon. He's not a crook, either. He's helped my parents keep cars on the road that have had no right staying on the road. He's an honest guy.

So It came time to get my truck inspected, so we dropped it off at our good ol mechanic. He forgot we owned it, and thought the truck was for sale and my dad was thiking of buying it, so he listed EVERYTHING that was wrong with it. It needs about $1500 worth of work, which we can't afford. So...

Thanks! Next time I see my friend we'll take a look at it!

Could you possibly elaborate?

My friends Just bought a 2003 Explorer. When he turns the windshield wipers on, they won't go off until he restarts the truck. What could be the problem here?

Okay, so to pass inspection I need -2 new rocker panels -2 new ball joints -all brakes done -2nd catalytic converter -muffler Roughly what will this cost me? And do you think it's worth fixing the truck? The truck is a 1997. It has 96,000 miles on it, but drives like it has 150,000...

So basically what you're saying is that with the brown wire mod, in 2wd it'll be 2wd, and in 4wd aito instead of being automatic, it's fully engaged. Am I correct?

Okay so I'm helping a friend look for an Explorer. I found this listing: http://nh.craigslist.org/ctd/3929214403.html and it doesn't have regular 4wd. If you look, the only options are 2wd, 4wd auto, and 4wd low. in NH we get a good 6 inches of snow here often. Would she be slip sliding...

Okay, here we go, long post ahead. Anyway, About 9 months ago I installed a new HU and speakers all for under $100. While it was a huge step up frothe sh*tty stock system, I've lately been hating turning the radio on. This time around, I'd like something way more bassy, but sounds crystal...

How can I get to it?

anyone?

So I have the 1997 with stock halogen bulbs. I 4300k(white) HID's, and I want them to have projectors. Anyone have any good recommendations?

So I have the 1997 with stock halogen bulbs. I 500k(white) HID's, and I want them to have projectors. Anyone have any good recommendations? OOPs I put this in the wrong section. If a moderator could come by to delete this, that would be great!

Oh, ok thanks. I don't exactly know what point you're trying to get across, but it's information, so thanks.

Oh okay thanks. You seem to be pretty knowledgable about this stuff. So if down the road I want to convert to EATC, would you mind giving me a few pointers?

But I don't understand - because the vehicles equipped without A/C would not start up properly. Is this true?

I thought r12 was freon? I have r134.
