Small update:
This past weekend I replaced my stock shock absorbers..... yeah 119k miles and they were stock shock absorbers. Anyways, I replaced them with some Monroe Gasmatics and the truck drives SO much nicer now. I can corner at higher speeds, it picks up faster and I can go over bumps with out getting dizzy.

I will take some pictures of the inside of my truck and some day time pictures as well this weekend. I would have done it sooner but I had 2 50 foot sailboat sails in my bed and the back seats were down.
 












Nice looking X.
 






Update: My truck gets its first waxing ever...

I was messing around in photoshop and I basically made what I want my explorer to look like. Please tell me what you think. Sorry it is so blurry my camera is awful.

You want honesty? Here ya go....

That looks awesome... The only thing I would change is the side bars or steps or whatever they are called. They don't look right. The airdam and painted mirrors look awesome. Maybe a change in the wheels too. The 2 sets of wheels that I think look awesome on white Explorers are the white saleen style wheels and the chrome CobraR's. But that's just me. Are you going to get it painted like that or is it just a thought?
 






I would really like to have it painted like that, but I am low on money at the moment.

Where can I get the Saleen style wheels. I tried looking on eBay a minute ago and all I saw was Mustang wheels.
