If all goes well I'll be bringing an '05 limited home this weekend.
38K miles 6.0, auto, 3.73 l/s, the PO installed aftermarket air ride, Power Acoustik DVD, and aftermarket air cleaner. Other than that is is bone stock. It will be the wife's DD and my part time tow rig. Carfax was clean, and I ran an OASIS and it had a few minor warranty repairs.
I'll post pics when I get it home. The bad part is I now have to sell my 95 F250. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Actually, I might get rid of it too. This way if I have the truck for the weekend she'll need something better to drive. At least that's what I'll make her think.
It's not a bad car, it's just not me. But 29mpg average is perfect for my 55 mile one way commute.

I had a 92 Escort wagon. I still kick myself for letting it go. I really liked that car. It had more leg room than most other large cars, and was well built.
Congrats on your 2005 Ex!!

I have a friend that bought an '03 Eddie Bauer, and his wife thought she would have trouble driving it. She loves it and I drove hers; I like mine too.
I thought it would be like parking the Queen Elizabeth II, and while it is (expletive deleted) big,it is very easy to drive, IMHO.
While it isn't exactly a sportscar, it handles well for an 8000 lb. truck.
I'm not married, but I am told if the wife isn't happy, nobody is happy. I look forward to some pictures of the new ride. Craig. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
