My
other baby.1998 Explorer XLT. Bought it brand new, one of the first 98s
in NY state. It has the V8 5.0 from the Mustang, and full time AWD. Pretty
fast for a SUV, embarrased a couple of "suckas" out there. Fun, very comfortable,
and drives through anything. Necessary because the 240sx is just not for
all weather conditions, and I work for Nazis, and I MUST be at work no
matter what. Plus, for some reason women really like it...gotten many compliments.

One
more shot. I know I look goofy as hell, so just ignore me. This picture
was taken the first night I had it. Seems like my hand was glued into my
pocket that day-a gesture of how much the damn thing cost..Sorry for the
quality of these, they were taken in dark conditions and blah blah blah....

I
miss my old baby. It's probably a lawn chair or a Coke can by now. Aside
from a lack of adequate power, the S13 is pretty much an all-around perfect
sports car. Light weight, great balance, tight suspension, usefull interior
(save the dash) and unique looks. This one was a real find - low milage,
maintained very well, immaculate shape, just a wonderful car. Someday I
will get another one...any one selling a SE with Hicas?

The
Sterilizer (hi sue!). I'll probably catch hell for owning a SUV, but they
have their purpose. I love this truck. At least it looks good, has plenty
of power, and is surprisingly nimble. I really love mine. And NO, there
is no baby seat in the back!

Top
Shot. This truck is great for cruising and light off roading. The interior
is really well designed and confortable. Long trips are a breeze in this.
On those nights when i may be a bit too tired, I almost feel like I can
set the cruise control and hop in the back for a nap and let the thing
drive itself home. This truck and I have been through a lot together...I'll
be sorry to see it go when the lease is up.

One
more. Have you had a V8 today? I was tempted to throw the Paxton Supercharger
on this thing and really have a sleeper. (ok, calling it a sleeper would
be a bit of a stretch, but who would think they were going to get dusted
by a SUV?) I've taken quite a number of cars at lights that one would think
that really should have beaten me, and it has never let me down.
