Well the wife wasnt happy when i put the mustang away for the winter so i had to find something for the winter. Spent days upon days searching (wanted something cheap since it is a winter/haul vehicle only) and was ready to give up when I fell upon this:

98 F150 4.6L auto 4x4
Has overload springs on the rear which set it about 2" higher in the rear so I adjusted the torsion bars to level the front out and it looks awesome sitting that high up now Ive got 28" of gound clearance haha Soon to have 17s with 15" tires and black nerf bars and bull bar as well.

Dont mind the dirt. She needs cleaned.

Heres the wifes ride:
2003 Explorer XLT 4WD (switchable not AWD) 4.6L V8

nice deal! is that a giant decal on the side though? looks a bit cheesy..
What decal? Are you talking about the chrome rocker strip?? It was on there when I bought it along with the contracting companies decals (which I am slowly removing)

Thats a nice winter beater for a nice price. Nice explorer i have a 03 limited myself with the 4.6 check out this forum if you dont belong to it already lots of great info there
http://www.explorerforum.com/

Actually I am on there and they have a lot of helpful info for the explorers. That site helped me when I did the rear strut assemblies on it along with when the rear wheel bearings went out.
