hey guys..always have been a ford owner but a first time explorer owner. i just bought a 97 eddiebauer 5.0 w/3rd row seating. 2wd last week . my expedition was killing me @ 10mpg. it would cost me 100 bucks a month just to take my kids to school 5 days a week 6 miles a day. anyways..i live in niceville ,FL have a wife and 2 kids and a few dogs...hope to meet some new members and see some cool rides on here..i plan on doing a mac intake and exhaust on it then i plan on lifting it about 4 inches via spindles/TT and spring over. just want to to look as good as it sounds.
