Re: Gone but not forgotten

Don't remind me :( To bad I didn't take the same path and kept the car. This truck is killing me with repairs.

Oh well, live and learn.

Re: Gone but not forgotten

OEM tail lights. Considering that it was a Ford F350 that hit me (low speed), the damage was minor. Since the truck sits so high it basically plowed into my trunk lid.

Re: Gone but not forgotten

She's in an induced coma for now but the summer/fall was great. I made the mistake of purchasing the extended warranty and as a result limited myself on what mods I could install. Unless I decide to forfeit the cash and void my warranty. Unfortunately, someone rear ended me after 3 weeks of owning t...

Re: Gone but not forgotten

As winter approaches, I miss my Kizashi more and more! What a great car she was.

I purchased a 2002 Ford Explorer XLT with 145,000 km (4x4 and winter tires) for about $4500.

It should get me through a few winters but it won't be nearly as enjoyable for obvious reasons.

Re: Rear registration bulb change

It was a nightmare! I broke 50% of the plastic tabs while removing the trunk liner.

Re: Gone but not forgotten

They had no issue accepting the trade but the value was up for debate. They started at 10k and used the "they don't sell cars in North American anymore and service/parts may become an issue" excuse but settled at $14,500 (I wasn't desperate to get rid of the car). The trade included my win...

Re: Gone but not forgotten

Automatic, I heard that the manual in these cars are a slush box and made in China.

It does have select shifting and sport mode which locks out 6th and holds gears longer.

Then again, you can always modify the manual with an aftermarket short shifter.

Re: Goodbye but not forgotten

Thanks! I went with the V6 as gas prices are outrageous around here. The grill, rims and side stripes are part of the Mustang Club of America package. Modifications so far: - Ford Racing sport axle backs - AEM DryFlow intake - BAMA street tune - Tinted windows - Strut tower brace = 330 HP (305 stock...
