why? i thought you posted elsewhere that you almost had your truck paid off? I'd say just drive it til something breaks, than fix it and keep on trucking. to hell w/ these gas prices! its always cheaper to drive something that's paid off.

Take the money you would've spent on the Sport Trac and throw some rims on your truck. I'd keep what you've got.

But Pat, you will have to mod the front seat into the back seat on the Sport Trac.

she's running better then ever, coming home sunday night on the highway i got the best ever MPG for my truck. I pulled off 22.5 mpg

My only complaints are i still have water coming into the front passenger corner from somewhere.
I also have a leaking injector.

I think the ST-A could be a cool truck with a little work.

eh... i'd say just drive what you have now, and use the cash from having no payments to modify your truck to the exact extent you desire. i personally think some harley wheels would look awesome on your truck, or some other 20''.

ever think about dropping in a 5.4 and doing a Lightning conversion?
that would be so badass on your truck.

Its just hard to see that many miles because ive had it since Day 1 when i picked it up with 12.0 miles after my test drive.

Minimonster: Im thinking about doing 01-02 L replica wheels in 20s. Maybe a L conversion down the road would be fun
