    Nice score. Is that your 99-01 Explorer? pics and info please? I've been looking for the right one for months. When I do get one it will be used to pull the Maverick occasionally once I got a trailer later.

    Is that a Dwell/Tach meter mounted in the dash? THat's one way to keep an eye on the points.

    yes sir. it's a 2000 Explorer XLT and LOADED. it has the 4.0 SOHC, power moonroof, power locks, windows, mirrors, auto 4WD, leather, exterior lighting, roof rack, alloy wheels and a bunch of other options. I have pulled home several Mavericks with my trailer. my car trailer is about 23ft. long and weighs over 1400 lbs. by itself. The only thing that i would recommend would be to buy the best rear shocks you can find. i mean the truck pulls my trailer just fine, but the rear end will squat down with a load. if you want to know anything else, just pm me and ill help you as much as i can (y)


    yup, kinda neat huh? :yup::rofl: also have a volt, oil, temp and vacuum gauge as well. (y)

    Love that steering column/ignition.

    They should have never stopped that.

    Ford would have probably continued it. Feds made everybody switch over to a locking column.
