    Awesome MPG

    Nice. I think I got 18mpg once or twice in my V6 in 15 years I had it. Usually got 16mpg.

    former sport trac owners what do you drive now?

    No, Hybrid only comes in FWD. Much better traction than my RWD Sport Trac was though.

    Roof Rail Trim

    I have two that I pulled from a "covered" salvaged 1st gen. Quite the pain to remove. Never installed them on mine before I sold it. They were white and I painted them black.

    Trying to install New Bodymount Bushings?

    Trying to install New Bodymount Bushings?

    I did all that. Unfortunately the passenger front A bolt still snapped. I also couldn't get the Driver side D lower metal bushing piece to separate by threading the bolt in from the bottom and sledging with a punch from the top. So I could not replace the bushing. I may give it another try...

    Trying to install New Bodymount Bushings?

    Thanks. That's what I plan on when I get a chance. The nut on top of that one is hard to get to, no room to get a wrench on it. I need about a 1.5 ft. extension to reach it, and I suppose some vise grips to hold it in place on the bottom.

    Just thought this was amusing. Gen 1 FTW.
