Hey, I'm new to the forum and new to driving. Turned 17 in Janurary however I'm not new to cars. My uncle owns a Ford Dealership here in Jersey. I've recently come into a little bit of money and I wanted to spend it on my 2000 EB Explorer. Any ideas? Thanks for any help!

would ur uncle happened to have a 99-01 black or blue limited on his lot? ive been looking for one with a decent price. think he can work our some magic numbers for me?

Tyler Curran · March 18, 2002

Hmmm...I'd have to check if we had one on the lot. I know we have a few lease returns in of that style...so maybe. As for the magic numbers....we cant seem to make money on any cars these days. *real deep announcer voice*At Verner Cadbey Ford, are prices are the best there is!*end voice* So look us up!.

Well..after posting my reply, I was interested myself in what we had used on the lot and: here you go!

Tyler, take a look in the fetured explorers and there is a new model eddie bauer that the guy calls herc. It looks cool as hell and he has pics of it doing some tough stuff.

so what are lookin to do? like lift or lower, spend the money on stereo, looks, performance?

Tyler Curran · March 18, 2002

I'm not a big stereo man, the one in the truck suits me fine. I don't wanna lower it because I like to do a little off-roading. My friend suggested hood scoops but I can't see the purpose to them. Any suggestions would be great!

well for off roaders might wanna get an exhaust system or big tires maybe even a lift too many things to do to x's not nearly enough money

TarHeel085 · March 18, 2002

well first if you wanna go off-roadin, get skidded up if you already arent, your Uncle can help if your not. then do a search for TT/Shackle lift VERY cheap 2" lift. then get some 31-32" BFG's (or whatever) i assume you have 255/70/16 tires. so if you do 2" of lift you should be able to run 32's.

Ah just get a KKM, Chip, and Borla Exhaust. It will run ya about $600, but it should have some nice added power

as far as the hood scoops go it isn't a bad idea al together. intake and exhaust will help with power and a really phat idea, if you know a real good fabricator and mechanic, is to actually make the hood scoops functional. i have a buddy up here that did it to a 85 k5 bronc, but it was a lot of money and time. it takes some creative thinking too to tie in the intake with the scoops.
