Another XLT on the boards

2000 XLT. Living in Hawaii this'll be my beach ride. Anyone know of any trails I can check out on Oahu? Thanks.

Took some chrome polish to the bumper and lazily pounded that one. I'll get a powerball or something and do a better job later :) Gonna dip the side steps and roof rack next
 






Wheels been dipped and holding up fine. I like the way it looks now, but shoots it needs bigger rubber.

Does that dealership badge say "Phil Long"? If so, which city is it from?

That plasti dip really helps bring that bumper back to life.

Yes it does. Truck is from Colorado and I see you are so I bet you know the stealership :D
 






Phil Long!

What a small world.... I just got back from the Frontier Days in Cheyenne where I saw an '01 sport with a Phil Long badge in the parking lot. Made me think of this thread... :)
