  1. Yes the best i could find last year was $250 and i bet they will be that much if not more this year.
  2. From everything I have seen these cars are damn impressive. If I could afford it I would sell the camaro and pick one up. They seem to be able to take tons of abuse and for fairly cheap can make great power as said above.
  3. I try to go 2+ times a week and i also try to take a little trip somewhere. I have got a pass to MRM the past 4 years and will get one this year. Will be up there pretty much every sat all day most likely.

    96 explorer

    I’m selling a 96 ford explorer. It is drivable but I would not suggest it. I feel that it does need some work for it to be completely safe. It has 250000 miles. The Bad- The part that holds the back door open is broke so it falls on you but the window opens and stays up fine. the seat is broke and just falls back as your sitting on it. Cracked windshield. It has only happened a couple time but when i put it in drive, it will start to shake when i start to go and when I get on the gas it shakes even more and acted as it was going to die. It did that half of the way home for me then the last half it started driving fine. Since then I haven’t touched it. Up till that day i had no issues it would shift very smooth and never had any problems. Could be something as simple as tranny fluid or something like that. It does burn oil and could use an oil change. The wheel feels real loose when going 65+. It will sometimes pull back and forth and other times it will drive straight and have no issue. We did have the ball joints and some other things changed out in the front not to long ago but ill have to find out what all was done. the ABS started to kick on even when I wasn’t sliding so someone either pulled a fuse or disabled it somehow so it drives and breaks just as if there were no abs. This never caused me any problems just the breaks will lock up if you put them to the floor. The good- the body is pretty good i feel, there is a little rust around the rear finders and bumper but it is pretty small. it does have new pads and rotors in the front. The 2 back tires don’t look to bad but the front 2 are getting pretty worn. The A/C was out so I put the recharge stuff from the store in there and it has been working since for about 4 weeks. Heat works fine last time i checked. And as of last winter 4x4 worked very good also. I know this is sloppy i just threw it together fast and will try to get it cleaned up later. If you have any other questions please PM me and i will try to answer them the best i can. Asking $600 OBO.

  6. damn it this is all i need... Let me see if I can gather up enough money after payday friday.
  7. I'm not sure what point i missed .... I have read what their goals were for the car. Their car's are amazing wheather they are drag cars or street cars. Like he said they are such different cars they are hard to compair. All the cars listed are all damn impressive wheather they are street or drag cars.
  8. Simply amazing. If i was going to change out everything, i would want to start as cheap as possiable too. Also having a chute and proper cage sounds like a good idea for cars of this level.
  9. No idea. Just found that on another site.
  10. 4 door 4x4. Nope its a 6. Looks like i might try craigslist for a week or 2.
  11. Suggestions of places to ask?
  12. I tried to, because of the year i was told the only place that can do that is a dealer who wanted over $150 to do that because they said something about having to do a 150 point inspection and some other bullshit. They wouldn't just pull the codes and tell me. I know why the abs light is on, the abs was fucking up so someone disabled it. It is starting to rust and the windshield is cracked too. On top of that lately when you get up around 65-70 MPH it starts pulling from side to side. After driving this for some time i don't feel that it is safe for someone to drive as is. It would need lots of work and for the money it needs, I'm going to put that into a new car.
  13. Check Eng light, ABS light, broke drivers seat, and just this week it started acting up and not wanting to run, along with some other things that just keep adding up.
  14. I have a 96 explorer. I don't feel that it is safe to sell to someone else for use. I have talked to pick-n-pull and they said up to $315 for it. I was wondering if there is any other options out there maybe get some more money out of it? Or should I just say fuck it and get what I can out of it from them?
  15. Thats what I was thinking. Same with Beckman, he started off ok with the TD pass that was called back of course. I want to see some plays with Pryor and Beckman in at the same time. That will really keep them on their toes.
  16. Welcome, that little box under the post count needs to be green and or a mod approves you also.

    Hello

    OMGHI2U2. Nice VW by the way.

There is a thread with 120+ pages of girls with cars.
  19. splatter park. Can't beat their woods courses. Cost some money to play, but every weekend I was there, there were atleast 40+ people for open play. http://www.splatterpark.com/
  20. +1 on the hyundai? and no metro, looking for something a little nicer since I hope to have a real job next summer. Thats what I'm looking for but not auto-x. Going to go check out some civics this weekend and see what I think of them.
  21. I have a beater and there is not point. I want a car I can keep for a couple years and get some good use out of. I should be saving around $20-40 a week if i can get a car that gets 30+ MPG.
  22. I have been kicking around the idea of getting a new daily driver. I would save enough money in gas to help pay for it. Now my question is if you could spend $3000-5000 for a new daily driver what would you look at or get? Must get over 25 MPG and be reliable.
