New Hauler

Post by Dangerous Drifter Dan »

Well I guess i finally had to get something more family friendly. I also wanted something to haul house/car crap in. 98 Eddie Bauer 97K Its got the gas guzzling package 5.4l 4x4 with the tow package.

Now all I need to do is add some zombie killing gear. Doesn't Marcos have one of these?

They where alot more affordable about 3 months ago....Saying that I got a freaking steal $5400. This kid had 3 cars of his own and his family had about 10 that I saw sitting around the house along with boats, jet ski's, dune buggy, 4 wheelers, and dirt bikes. He said it came with the house and his parents said he could have the money if he sold it.

you never told me!!! I really only wanted to spend about 6k so unless you had plenty of cash to go with it then it wouldn't have worked anyways.

That's a very nice truck! Which transmission comes with that model? I've been looking into getting a tow vehicle/second vehicle, but the Ford AOD is a scary piece and I don't know if all Ford Autos got it or just the cars.

AODs are in cars and i think a few trucks got them. They are from the 80's and early 90's though. I think it has a E4OD which is a beefy trans.

I dont like AOD's very much at all I couldn't manage to keep one together under my Crown Vic they have way to many weaknesses.

Yeah, Joe was telling me about the AOD issues, I had a T-bird LX that suffered from the same problems and that's where my weariness towards them stems. I'll have to do some research on that E4OD because that's a very attractive truck and I do need to eventually get a tow vehicle, LOL!

Thanks for the info!
