Have had many cars over the years. Drove alot of fleet vehicles, all basic American 4door stuff that had that 'must be the fuzz' look......

Current rides:
2014 Mercedes E550 - last year of the V8 twin turbo in a non AMG E-class sedan - a bit of a sleeper (one of the best cars I've ever owned)
2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland

Gone but not forgotten:
18 Mustang GT - sold to brother prior to F150 - first car I flew somewhere to buy
10 Merc E550
06 BMW Z4M (only car I regret selling)
73 Caprice Classic coupe - Bored and stroked 454 with goodies, sans any emissions BS - major sleeper, that is until you heard it

2012 Mazda 5
2012 Toyota Prius
2015 Leaf with 117K miles and still getting 75+ miles per charge on 10 battery bars,
1998 F 150 with 330+K miles on original drivetrain-go Ford!-bought new but now retired except for farm chores,
1970s Kubota L 345 DT with a loader.

I have a 20 F-150, XLT 302A. Wifey has a 19 Fusion Energi Titanium. I’m trading my 20 and leasing a 21. We are trading Wifey’s Fusion for a 21 Explorer.

I had a 2019 Ranger XLT Sport until a few weeks ago. I loved the truck, aside from its transmission issues. It was 'fixed' at the dealer but still shifted like crazy, not just the normal double-shift to improve mileage. So, I sold this and made a ton of money because of the chip shortage's effect on used car prices! I picked up a really solid 2004 F150 Heritage for cheap, paid cash.

With the money gained from the sale of the Ranger, the money saved on the Ranger payment, the tax credit we'll get from our XC60 Recharge, and my annual bonus I get in March, I should be able to pay cash for the Lightning! That's the plan at least.

Good luck for those wanting a Lighting, production numbers for next year are looking pretty low. I did a reservation but was about a week after they opened. I figure at best late 2023 or early 2024 for me. Hoping to see Solid State batteries hit the market 2025 or 2026 so may just wait till they are out.

Ha. The words “Excelsior Henderson” and “2000” don’t jive in my mind. What’s it like? I have a ‘48 Chief, which I ride, btw.

But I did do the timing job on it myself back in October 2019 at 104,000 miles. Took a week to do, about 40-50 hours of work.


Truck is alot quieter now than before (with the cam phasers knocking and chain slap before doing the job)
