Thinking
..... Speaking of batteries, I picked up this to take with me next week since I'll be away from home. Still undecided as to whether I am taking my truck or the Toyota.

Make sure you experiment with that thing before you need it, though. The first time I used mine I tried to help out a guy with a dead motorcycle battery, and couldn't because I was doing something (can't recall what) wrong. I had no trouble later, though, when I RTFM and used it on my lawn tractor.
EDIT: The 2 amp on mine also just says slow\trickle charge.
EDIT 2: Mine says "Manual" on the front.

anybody have recommendations on tires for an escape? Just noticed the wifes driver front tire has two spots where the sidewall tread has peeled back. Ill grab some pics when we are back home but it wont be till tuesday. The tires have at least 75,000 miles on them so it was getting close to time anyway. Just dont like being forced to buy new tires on a short timeframe
2100 - The Yoko Ascend all-seasons will probably be what I put on my new-to-me TLX. They're a "grand touring" tire. I don't know what year yours is, but we had a set of Firestone Destination AT's on an '01 Escape, and we're very happy with them. Part of your choice will depend on how aggressive you want/need them to be.
We have an 05 dont need anything too aggressive. We use it for roadtrips alot and my wife has been putting a lot of miles on it for work. I'll look into the yokos and the firestones. Our current tires are what we bought the car with and they are Fuzion which i believe is considered a low budget brand. They lasted us 75,000ish miles tho so they havent been that bad lol.
Edit* the 740GTX they dont make in my size and same with firestones. The two I think im deciding between are the YOKOHAMA GEOLANDAR G055 and the GOODYEAR ASSURANCE CS FUEL MAX . I didnt see the Ascend tires in my car size but the Geolander were listed as all seasons.

The front reconstruction isn't hard and that color is pretty easy to lay down but that bed damage would scare me a little bit. I wonder if the air bags deployed.
Edit: nevermind interior looks mint
