  • Bought the wife a newer car..

    Both the Excursion and my Mustang were inoperative for about a week so I thought I would go out and pick up a third 'more practical' vehicle. I had originally planned on this being the wife's car, but she doesn't want anything to do with it (she is not a car person, nor does she care what she drives as long as it gets her there). I have had it now for 2.5 weeks and she has yet to drive it, which is okay....cause this thing is neat. I don't think I will ever get back into the Mustang.


    I had no idea what options were on the car when I bought it and I am learning as I drive it. For example, the second day I had it someone ran a red light and had crossed my path at speed, the car went bananas with flashing lights, loud noises, and had slowed on its own to avoid hitting the truck that crossed in front of me.....while this sounds neat, it was fucking terrifying to learn it had that ability. So I thought it would be a good idea to do a little more reading on it so I wouldn't have to go thru that again.

                  E85 is good times but I think I will leave this one be. Mainly cause I cant afford to modify it....

                      I am sure she will come around eventually, which will put me back in my 14 year old car. But Manny and crew are currently working on the Mustang to make it a little more fun for me so it will all work out.

                        I had the Excursion fixed (under valve cover wiring harness). I did the driver side but the passenger side went shortly after so I had a buddy at Ford fix it. Its only got 220k on it. I was going to trade it until they told me it was only worth 3k (not worth trading at that point).

                          Excursion only worth 3k? Is it fucking trashed on the inside?

                            V-10 probably.

                              Nope, typical ripped leather seat on the driver side. And mah quick fix on the rear quarter where someone had run into while it was parked but even with those imperfections, it is worth more.
