Thanks man. You have a number for him by chance? I got all the rest of the rear 87-88 stuff from Shawn. He didn't have the left light. Spent a few days looking for it too.

Sweet looking truck.....

I picked up a power wheels for my middle daughters second birthday...A pink mustang of course. She will get it in June but I couldn't pass up the deal on it.

Also just got my oldest (7) a go kart for her birthday a month ago...she burned through 3 tanks of fuel in a day....which is good because I was afraid she was going to be afraid of it...LOL

I did a little paint work to girl it up for her...but no basecoat clear coat for my kids....just good ole fashioned rustoleum rattle can is how we roll.

Haha, I'm always thinking about what's next. My auto ADD isn't quite at Cam's level, but it doesn't take long for me to start looking at my options. When the day comes when I can find a manual 2015 GT with leather for low 20's the STi's days might be numbered

i got ya. Do you like it for a daily? Haven't heard you talk much about it since you got it. I bought a TDI and if it proves reliable I plan on getting rid of my WRX. 70 miles a day Is much nicer with the VW.

**Troll** · 04-01-2016, 04:20 PM

no joke, it's welfare bum check day. Fayco looks like a circus. everybody loads up their clapped out cavalier with gas, heads straight to the cable office to pay their bill so they can watch TV for the rest of the month, then it's off to Sheetz for thigarettes, wally world, hot dogs for the kids and then the beer distributor for massive quantities of cheap, macro brew. they can walk in and out of the stores and talk on their phones... they sure as hell could do this job I'm sitting here doing. WTF?

I love it as a daily. It's been a while since I've had something with a manual as a daily and it really is nice to row your own gears on a regular basis. It was a tank in the snow with the limited slip diffs front and rear. Even with just regular all season tires it goes as good or better than our Lincoln Aviator. Took it to the track rental and also had it up at Beaver Run once as well. If I were limited to only one vehicle for some reason this would definitely be it. But... since I have other vehicles to go in deep snow I would consider finding something else that has a little more torque. That's the only thing it's lacking. I work from home so I don't put too many miles on it. Thankfully when I am traveling for work my company pays for my gas. If I had to do 70 miles a day it definitely wouldn't be my choice though. Best mileage I've seen has been like 22-23 MPG.

Gotcha! First winter with mine was a nightmare. It had brand new BFG Sport comp tires and they were scarry (no real suprise). This year I put four Continental winter extreme contacts on the stock wheels and the car was a downright animal!! Mileage wise the BEST I have got was 25.2 on a road trip, and average in the 23ish range to work and whatnot. I agree, it's not ideal. I'll never see the car as a toy, so to keep it around as a second "driver" would be silly... I fee it's days are numbered even though it's been an awsome car and iv put ~25k problem free miles on it (knock on wood).

The fuel gauge on my 03 Explorer XLT is acting odd. I have a full tank. Randomly it will beep then drop to empty and the the check gauge light is on. Thoughts?

Do you have some RR tracks in your neighborhood with a slight (read: steep) incline? Run over them about 80-90mph... ideally you want all four wheels to come off the ground. The plunger in the tank will sucker punch itself and you will be all set.

You're welcome! :trollistheshit:
