    Traded in the Trac

    Thanks guys, I am a little nervous about the MPG's but I have been reading about people getting in the neighborhood of 14-15. My track was only getting 16 so hopefully I can manage.

    Traded in the Trac

Here it is, my new 06 SCrew Cab 4x4. It was built 07/06. There are a couple of bigger pics in my library. I...

    OBD readiness

    my problem was very similar to the cracked elbow, the hose that connects right before the MAF came loose while I was driving down the road and it triggered the CEL. I hooked it back up and then disconnected the battery. I have put about 1000 miles on it since it was cleared and it has yet to...

    OBD readiness

    I took my trac in a couple of weeks ago for an emission test which it failed due to P0171 & 01074.

    POLL: How many miles do you put on your vehicle in a months time (average).

    If I only drive to work and home it is about 2000 a month. It is about to be more being I will be using it for work but I will get 49 cent for every one of those miles so I can deal with it

    4 months old and rear-ended - Built Ford Tough!

    I agree with raym2, my previous truck was a Z-71 and that think held like a tank. It took on a cavalier, a taurus, and the side of an 18 wheeler (long story) and came out ahead, the track however barely survided a box truck clipping the taillight turning into a gas station.
