See my auction for towing mirrors at: http://www.ebay.com/itm/300938526612?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 Used once. Like new.

Disregard. Found a pair near Detroit on Craig's List. The woman actually shipped them to me. They're nice and sturdy. Now to get a couple of sets of Yakima Universal Mighty Mounts to use my existing kayak saddles . . .

Well, my log load was fake. Cut down 3 fairly large dead trees (killed by Hurricane Ivan, but still standing). They were like balsa wood. Wish I had taken a couple of photos with me holding one over my head one-handed . . . So your log load is way more impressive than mine.

How did she betray me? Wouldn't start one day after work. Battery was good. Dome lights, dash lights, radio played. Just wouldn't turn over at all. Ended up being towed and I had a rental for two days. Drawing a blank on what it's actually called, but the "ignition controller" had to...

I think most of the credit goes to the fully synthetic motor oil. And a lot of the mileage was highway miles. I'm hoping Uma, her younger, more attractive sister, will do as well (2008 ST XLT 4x4). We'll see . . . A few more "working girl" photos of Bertha: <iframe...

Yes. 2001. Purchased in October 2000. Original engine (ONE tuneup. LOL.). Original transmission. Original water pump. Original alternator. 3rd set of brakes? 3rd set of wheel bearings. Used Mobil One, fully synthetic oil, from day one. Not a mechanic at all. I only changed the oil...

Do you have cross bars for a Gen2 Sport Trac (2007-2010) that you never use? If so, let me know how much you want for them! In the Atlanta area and Florida panhandle often. Or we could arrange shipping.

RIP, Bertha . . . well, technically, she's not dead. I just divorced her. I hope her new owner loves her as much as I once did . . . before she betrayed me . . . <iframe src="https://skydrive.live.com/embed?cid=8D09F2A500E9B567&resid=8D09F2A500E9B567%213645&authkey=AIyOoL89HOte9Lc"...

I also use Mobile Full Synthetic 5W-30. Just flipped over to 280,000 miles on my '01 Sport Trac. Original engine.

My Dad, who does upholstery professionally, reupholstered mine. It was cracked where my elbow sits. It looks great. You'd never know. Tip to you do-it-yourselfers: He said he used a heat gun on the vinyl fabric near the corners so it would stretch nicely without puckering...
