    seat covers

    I've looked at two seat cover manufacturer's sites: CoverKing and Wet Okole. Wet Okole, out of Hawaii seems to make a very good (if not slightly expensive) neoprene seat cover that several people have recommended to me. They have a good site and will send you samples of their materials in...

    OEM step bars vs. "accessory" step bars

    I'm planning on ordering the step bars for my ST from Ford. I have an '05 XLT 4WD that didin't come with the appearance group. According to the '05 Explorer accessory catalogue, they offer bars which are the same type as the ones installed at the factory and "accessory" bars. The factory bars...

    PULSATION UNDER LIGHT THROTTLE

    I notice this issue with my '05 ST very rarely. I get what feels like a slight vibration through the gas pedal when ever I accelerate through curves from a stop (such as when parked at an intersection). The vibration is also usually accompanied by a vibrating sound that has a plistic-sounding...

    Need help finding car care kit (soap/wax/etc)

    Meguires wax is great and the Absorber drying "cloth" is great. I like blue coral car wash. I also recommend getting a good squegee to help get water beads of your ST if you live in an area with hard water. DD

    I'm Back!!!!

    Greetings all, It's been since early October that I last responded. Since then, I've moved into my new place on Ft. rucker, AL and have graduated from the US Army's Warrant Officer Candidate School. I'm now a WO1 and am eagerly awaiting to begin flight training sometime in February or...

    Million More March in Washington

    Before I toss a 50 gallon drum of kerosene onto the political bonfire, I was just wondering if anyone else watched (Minister?) Louis Farrakhan's openly racist and offensive speech on the Washington Monument Lawn today? I don't see how anyone who isn't black or who has some sense of...

    drive shaft on '05

    I've heard much debate over the steel vs. aluminum drive shafts in STs. How can I tell which one I have? I just got my '05 ST 4x4 XLT 3 days ago, and as I'm preparing for a 6 week school, haven't had time to do a thorough under-carriage inspection. Basically, I'd like to know if I need to get...

    Took Delivery finally

    Well, today I finally picked-up my '05 ST. It actually arrived yesterday, but I gave the dealership a day to get it prepped and get the tonneau cover installed. First impressions: Good: The sliding rear window is a huge hit. I like the rubber floors for ease of cleaning. The...

    Farewell to Italy

    buck_henry, Sardinia (Sardegn) is my absolute favorite place! They have such great food and the island isnn't nearly as inhabited as the rest of mainland Italy (the "continent", as the locals call it) I hope to retire there and make wine one day and maybe open up a dive-shop or tour...

    Farewell to Italy

    After over six years of living in one of the most beautiful and interesting countries in the world, the time has finally come for this trooper to leave Italy. I officially signed out from my old unit today, and am on leave until I report to Warrant Officer Candidate School in Alabama...

    Inflatable Toys (PG-13 version....suicide bombers may be offended)

    A stupid joke from one of my friends down-range in Afghanistan: A guy walks into an "adult novelty store" and approaches the store owner behind the counter. "I want an inflatable woman", he says. The shop-keeper responds: You are in luck, because we have two models. We have a...

    OT: Help me find ways to save gas, sorry

    the driving habits sound like good advice, but come-on......keeping your car clean and waxxed??????? That is silly. I don't think even the most mud-covered, filthy off-road vehicle would lose any fuel economy, except maybe from the added weight from pounds of mud. Maybe if you wax your car...

    Military Question

    In today's smaller, over-worked, and transforming Army, there are always options for a soldier with a good service record. I believe Cliff R gave some sound advice...talk to your Bn or Bde career counselor or retention NCOIC/OIC. They should be able to point you in the right direction...

    My Sport Trac Enigma

    dreman's response makes sense. I just miss the cool names of yester-year's cars. Let the auto makers change the names to something generic and meaningless for over-seas sales, but let's keep the cool names at home. DD

    My Sport Trac Enigma

    I don't know if anyone else has ever asked this before, but does anyone know why Ford spells the word "track" like "trac", as it is on our STs? I know, I know...this is a stupid question, but it bothers me that it isn't spelled correctly (TRACK). I'm sure there is a perfectly good...
