Greetings From CT

Hey guys,

Another newbie here - got 2 explorers- wife has an '03 XLT in silver/grey and I just got an '04 XLT in black.

I stumbled onto this site looking for tire sizes - mine's in the shop getting new brakes and I thought I'd go for tires too so it's getting 265/75/16 BFG AT T/A KO's. Sweet rubber, and it'll look cool with the aggressive stance.

I bought mine because my wife's is the best truck we've had. We've had Jeeps and Blazers and they just don't compete with the Ford trucks.

See ya around!

Hello from a former Ct explorer owner. I will agree with you on the fact that Ford's seem to be built to a higher standard compared to other SUV's. I had a '96 grand cheraheep. That thing had one advantage over my '99 X, and that would be the Dana 30 front axle. Other then that it was a piece that was underpowered and was the worse vehicle I have ever driven off road. Once again welcome and a word of wisdom if you are near the Ct river watch out for mud and water levels in the cromwell meadows and Rocky Hill Meadows, I sunk my heap there
