I hear ya about the ford haters....there is a guy that makes fun of me all the time because I lifted a 2wd ford. But the thing is, I have gotten a ton more compliments on my suv compared to his toyota 4 banger. His may be 4wd, but he doesn't have much power to get him through some stuff that I can without 4wd. I tell you what, about 10 guys went out last night and all of them were talkin about it at school today about how good my explorer did in the mud and off-road. And he said his truck looks better than mine, and he has like less than 2" of lift and 30" swampers, which probably suck on the road compared to mine. But I have never seen his truck as dirty as mine is now. I am really gettin sick of him talkin about all this stuff he's gonna do to his truck. He says he's gettin a 4" lift and 3" body and lockers front and rear and 33" tires, but he hasn't done anything yet, don't you hate those people that just talk about stuff they are going to do only to see them the next month or year with a honda or somethin? Oh well, hope you like your 35's, I am sure you will, they are awesome.
