Hello everyone. Just picked up our 'new to us' '03 Eddie Bauer Edition Explorer today after my wife's beloved '00 Grand Am GT was totaled over a week ago when a Expedition took off the frontend of it.

Before...

After...

I'm a first time Ford owner, most all of my other vehicles have been GM for the most part. Love the new truck and it'll be great since I have two kids and my wife loves to go on shopping trips with her friends and family. lol\

Here is the wife with her new Pride-N-Joy.

I personally drive a '01 Chevrolet Xtreme lower 2/3 with a cowled hood and is currently going under surgry to accept a set of LED Colorado tail lights just to start off it's major makeover.

And for the heck of it my other baby...
2005 Raven Black Yamaha R1

Welcome to the site! You've got some nice toys in your stable

I sure miss my bike I keep telling myself "one of these days", but the money keeps going into my Explorer

Thanks. I've owned all types of vehicles. 6 Fbodies (two 2nd Gen TAs and four 3rd Gen Camaros), a '84 Buick Grand National, couple Grand Ams, a Subaru a few Cavaliers, etc. Fairly well rounded. lol

My truck is just starting to get cut up for alot of extensive custom body work, however it's also my daily driver so it makes it tricky. Not to mention I ended up spending money I wasn't planning on last year when my oil cooler line split, dumped out all my oil and I ended up seizing my engine. SO last year I swapped it out in the middle of winter for a new one.

The bike, we'll thats my favorite toy. In fact it's my dream toy. If it weren't for living in the north east and having kids, I probally wouldn't even own a car. I'd ride everywhere rain or shine.

Don't give up on getting another bike, IMO the feel of the ride is one of those things worth living to experience.
