Wanna trade lives for a week or two? I hang out in Alaska with your modded truck and you get the Wife and kid with a 2013 SXT Screw that is stock in Colorado?

J/K but I do love Alaska.

Need to paint your lower fascia on the doors and bed to match that black. Then you are going to have something cool!

LOL, hey I do love Colorado. Grew up in Colorado, Utah and Arizona. My plan is to have the bumpers, and rocker panels and some fender flares all done in bed liner so it all matches. Just saving up the cash.

Okay so here is what is planned for the truck at this moment. Early Christmas present from my soon to be father-in-law is my fog light set up. Will work on getting those set up and installed this week.

Still haven't had time to hook up fog lights..but on a positive note, I got gas today and according to my app that tracks MPG's, I got a surprising 15.51 mpg on my last tank of gas. I'm pretty happy about that lol.

Okay, this post doesn't have to do with my truck but rather my wife's explorer. It is a 2013 XLT loaded. MSRP was just under 50k. Well for a few months we have been having an issue with it squealing and loosing power when its raining. I thought belt was getting water on it and slipping. So take it to the dealer ship, they try to fix it and no luck. So contact Ford, they were super nice and seemed like they were going to help..Well after a month of their 'engineers' meeting and trying to figure out they decide to tell me that they can't fix it and it's a characteristic of the car because of where I live...I'm not driving the car through rivers or even on dirt roads! They offer me a warranty plan and that's all they can do...The car isn't even a year old! I'm just upset and wanted to see if any of you have had issues with your new explorers, if you own one.
