Makes me think of Roxanne, by the police

Not too bad, little love bite

It has already gone (cape lookout trip) from about $175 to $400+ for us. That's at today's prices. If it goes over $6, we may have to cancel. It's not just the fuel, but EVERYTHING is going crazy expensive. I fully expect the ferry price to double from $85 when we get there. -Dan

Got the engine back in. Will finish the headers, electrical, AC and cooling system and mount the winch & bumper this weekend.

Got the engine back in. Will finish the headers, electrical, AC and cooling system and mount the winch & bumper this weekend. Gotta bail on Charlotte Rigs & coffee - kinda bummed about that. But I'll make April, with a more complete vehicle :)

I've found that the older I get, the better I was. :/ -Dan

Gonna need a co-signer pretty soon. Just hit 4.39 here in WNC. Was 3.99 when I went home last night. At 12 - 14 mpg this will be putting a damper on some of the longer trips we had planned.

That's why it lasted so long :)

I just changed all of mine a couple weeks ago. Made a huge difference in the ride. At 370k+ miles, it was an all-day job that I would not do again. You should probably think about it sooner than later, as I think it only gets harder as the fittings rust. Just my $.02. _Dan

Nice! While I'm more of a Bourbon fan, I do like the occasional foo-foo / umbrella drink. I would have this in my rig.

Like the look so far. Not so much that body mount though :/

Got the top end installed. Degreed in the new cam, and got some of the paint on. Waiting on some gaskets to button her up.

I had a winch bumper made. Going on after I drop the engine back in. -Dan

My last 2 dogs were black labs. I got to hold George as he passed, like losing family after 15 yes. Hard to replace him. He helped raise my kids ( we were single parents). -Dan

I think I have the same CAD program. It seems I have to use it for everything I want to upgrade because there is no aftermarket for the 2nd generation Explorer. Which is exactly why I chose the platform. Nothing against Jeeps and Taco's, their popular because they are very capable machines. I...

Haha! I have one of those overland wives too! Never even knew it. :) I was wondering about a new dog - lost my buddy after 15 yrs. I was debating on the breed, another Lab, or something else. Now I know! An overland! Just poking fun. Great list - totally agree. :) -Dan

Hi Kenneth, Welcome to OB! Glad to see another NC family on here. We're up in the mountains near TN border (Yancey County). If you haven't seen the Charlotte Coffee & Rigs meetup yet, It's the 2nd Saturday each month. You should check it out. Get to meet likeminded people in our area. -Dan

Welcome Chris! I like that Hamock mount. Where did you find that?
