Hey all, I know I haven't been posting much lately. I'll be on more once I finally get the Bronco into my garage. It's still at a friend's house and I haven't started on it yet. If you have any threads you want my specific input on, PM me please. The VW is still running well. Below are...

'Nuff said ;)

First Off, let me say that I do not wish to turn this into a "bashing" or "flaming" thread with every post being "they suck" or something short and stupid like that. This is from recent personal experience with them. I've seen good work and service from them, and bad. Ok. As some of...

Well today in school I learned how Ford can use 2 different spark plugs in our trucks: one bank single plat, and one bank double plat. I knew that half the plugs fired backwards, but didn't know why. Turns out the plugs work in pairs. The coil pack is actually 3 put together (on the OHV 6...

Hey all you SE Texas people! I've been back in Houston for almost half a year and we haven't done anything, so let's GTG! So let's throw out a few ideas for the next few weeks, maybe we can come up with something cool like dinner on the same day every month or something. Another idea...

Tonight "Overhaulin'" on TLC is a 91 Explorer. I think I saw on the preview that it's gonna go "street" but I'm not positive. Just FYI. 98% of the time Foose is da man!

So tonight on JAG "Clayton Webb" is dead. Wednesday, the character he plays on Enterprise was dead. Why wasn't "The Speaker" in the Gaza explosion on The West Wing? Anyone else watch all 3 shows? And I was just thinking how it was very cool that he was on 3 major shows.

Great transaction ;) He didn't want to use Paypal, but we sent the check and package at the same time and got them the same day. Probably helps that we've met in person though :)

Hey all, Well some of you may have noticed that I no longer list my occupation as "medical student" and that "University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston" has dissappeared from my sig. Yes, I've withdrawn from med school. After a while of not being happy I decided it wasn't for me...

To the point: My brother is trading his 93 EB 4x2 X for a.... 2004 V6 Passat :D Black on black with the manual tranny, 2wd. And no, he has never seen mine in person and yes, this decision was made after he test drove about a dozen other vehicles including a new X. Hmmm, guess...

I'm watching Rides on TLC right now, they're showing the buildup of the new Shelby Cobra Concept vehicle. All I can say is that you've gonna watch! TLC always rebroadcasts, so it will be on again @ 11 pm CST, TLC. Tue, 1-6-2004. All I can say more is that I keep drooling..

Just some new pics. Doesn't look much different than stock, just a few subtle changes. More pics in my elite gallery. I appologize for the poor quality of the pics. Exhaust tip (custom Magnaflow install): My copilot: Albie! Switch panel and pedals. All additional switches...

Well my new GTI is now Magnaflo'ed! The stock exhaust is 2.25" through the stock resonator, which is pretty good. We just cut off the most restrictive bend in the pipe, the muffler, and tips. On went a Magnaflow 2.5/2.5" muffler with a long rectangular tip (similar to a single Camaro tip)...

Has anyone else noticed a severe drop in email Spam in the last 10 days or so? I used to get about 100 spam messages per day to my hotmail and now I'm only getting about 20 per day. You think it's due to the latest computer viruses or just hotmail's improving filtering?

FS thread here: http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=82440 Yup, your eyes are still ok; and you're probably not too drunk to know what you're reading. I don't think I can keep Splat any longer. I need a new vehicle with a warranty, blah blah blah. I just don't...

Here are 9 new pics people wanted. Main points they show: painted fenders, new EE decals, removed trim, steps, removal of rear seat, sub/air setup.
