    This is why dirt roads and speeding don't mix

    Yup, that is a camaro alright... Having a cop car camaro can only be beat by 2 things, both of which I've seen... Cop car corvette or cop car monster truck... heh However, give me a cop Crown Vic and I'm still happy, those things are quick

    Smoking the Tires

    I don't smoke the tires, or even spin them on pavement(I can rarely get it to spin on dry pavement) however, nothing is more fun than doughnuts in a gravel parking lot...even in an X, that thing can rip around real good..

    SOME CHIC SMASHED MY X

    Are you joking? the cops around where I live, staties and municipal REFUSE to go to an accident without filling out their report and recording statements of everyone, they even do what they're supposed to and cross out unneeded sections of the report so to avoid insurance fraud... maybe I just...

    Turbo-Super swap

    I must admit, this isn't for an Explorer, it's for an Impreza... but I figured it's still a conversion...so shove it in here...

    SOME CHIC SMASHED MY X

    No report=You will probably get screwed.. If there's no report it comes down to your word against hers..and that's never good.. Why wouldn't you make sure a report is filled out with 3k worth of damages...seems like you weren't thinking..

    Turbo-Super swap

    Would it be practical to swap a Turbocharger for a Supercharger? What would need to be replaced? Would the same intercooler still work?

    Jeep vs. Ex

    Oops, I never said that this wouldn't be a $35,000 jeep I would be buying... I would buy it (very) used. Also, I haven't seen too much jeep bashing going on here..I think it's more of a bunch of people saying the advantages and disatvantages to either truck..seems like a (fairly) intelligent...

    Jeep vs. Ex

    How long, do you think, an Explorer will last(miles) doing regular road things(shopping..soccer mom stuff--since they seem to be the only ones that buy SUVs anymore) I'm looking around and I see a lot of Explorers in my price range with 125000+ miles, worth it?

    Jeep vs. Ex

    Be honest, what is more offroad worthy, Jeep Grand Cheroke or Explorer...older models, say 97 or a little earlier... Which is easier/cheaper to modify?
