Hey!
I'm Justin. I'm new here, but not the car world... Just bought an 06 V6 Explorer a few weeks ago to add to my fleet.
I'm from the Ft. Bragg/Sanford area in North Carolina, and a soldier in the 82nd Airborne Division.
Have some quick questions about these explorers...
I drove to DC from NC and got better gas mileage than expected after putting some injector cleaner in (Averaged around 23-24 going ~65)
are there any secrets do getting better than that? Synthetic trans fluid? K&N cone filter? stuff like that?
06' Explorer (completely stock... for now)
99 Passat - (K04'd, fun car)
2003 1097 Humvee - (My work truck) =)
and I own a Oldsmobile cutlass as my daily =)
and here's some extra pictures that I took at work the other day...
