    Happy Birthday to my 02!

    [Broken External Image]: She does not look this good as age has caught up to her a bit, but my 02 Sport Trac ( 130k) has been one of the most reliable Fords that I have ever owned. The Trac has been passed down to my son who is taking good care of her and it still runs like a champ...

    Advise on totaled car, Next steps

    I wanted to give an update. Met-Auto totaled the car after review, so we have been working with both MetAuto and Liberty Mutual, and I have to say it was "surprisingly" good experience all the way around. We did our home work and found 2007 Honda Pilot's with the same milage and type...

    Advise on totaled car, Next steps

    My 2001 Sport Trac is still going strong and my 17 year old son loves it. Unfortunately, this past week, in traffic, getting on to an on ramp in stop and go traffic my 2007 Honda Pilot ( 4WD, EX-L ) was hit. The car had damage in the back and front ( was sandwiched ) and the initial estimate...

    Fishing

    @REDFISH - I laughed for 20 minutes. Mike/Andy: Thanks for the input. I have Dicks and Bass Pro Shops that I can shop at. I'm here in Central Massachusetts. I was thinking about a mix of what you all recommended. Maybe, we will get him the reel and tackle box to put under the tree...

    Fishing

    I was hoping there might be some fishing junkies that might be able to give me some advise. My son, 19, started fishing quite a bit this year with a friend. His friend has a ton of fishing gear, so my son uses his equipment when they go out. They mainly fish in the local reservoir - bass...

    occupy wall street.......

    Occupy Madison shut down today because of public masturbation. Occupy Wall Street made their point. Bravo ! Now it is just a joke and I see nothing good coming out of this any longer.

    Massachusetts Corn Maze 911

    Politics in MA is always like a Corn Maze. :) This is the third or forth story of this kind this fall alone. I think it is hysterical.

    what is your property tax?

    $5500 here in MA in my town. If course, the new tax without calling it a tax is called FEE's. :fire: We get FEE'ed to death.

    Madison, WI - mechanic recommendation?

    Any ST friends in the Madison, WI area ? My daughter is a UW grad and is now living/working in Madison. I bought her a 07 Hyundai Elantra in the spring with 48k for miles, and my son and I drove it out there from the Boston area. It is in really nice shape and I made sure it was checked...

    Shackle on Leaf Spring

    I called my mechanic after posting this thread and he told me to bring it down. He put the truck on the lift in a bay he had opened and showed me what needed to be changed. I left it there and he's going to fix it tomorrow. I didn't ask - "how much?" but I assume the damage will not be too...

    Shackle on Leaf Spring

    Paul, I am willing to take on some projects with the truck ( thanks to this site and projects ), but I would not have any idea one with or the other on that question. I want to say that the Sears mechanic said the shackle was "broke" but I am not 100% sure. I'll crawl under tomorrow when...

    Shackle on Leaf Spring

    Hi, I just had my 02 serviced at Sears ( tires, etc ) and I have a "squeeking" coming out of the rear end. The mechanic told me that it is the "shackle on the leaf spring". He told me they didn't have the ability to fix it and to bring it to a local mechanic. Q's --- a) Is this...

    seasonal depression ?

    I cannot wait to move from the NE some day. Not only does the seasonal depression kick in, but I really dislike the cold temps. In addition, I am a bit of a cycling junkie, and would love to be able to run by bike the full year. I will say that living in NE the colors in the fall are...
