I'll use this both for inspiration and motivation once my warranty is up.

I don't know what if I blow a transmission at 59,999 miles.

Be glad it didn't happen at 35999?
and then be thankful we have people like Kris, where we can find and swap out your tranny in a flash for cheap.

Hence my love for it. However, I think I will mount the spare to the roof. I want to put 33" tires on Copper, but I have to do some wrench work to the suspension and upper control arms. There was a guy on EF that did a 3" body lift and 2" suspension lift. With his tire increase he estimated he had about 6" of lift. Well, he didn't take care of the UCA. The other day he folded his front tire under his Explorer. This snapped his CV joint, destroyed the UCA assembly, and pinched a brake line.

Personally, I mounted my spare on the top of the truck a couple times, but I think I'm too old for that shit now, hahaha.

Well I was once told that I had a little bit a muscle from a vodoo priestest in the French Quarter. However, now that i think about it she looked a lot like a he, and I had a a few hand grenades already. Mehh, I just don't like the idea of blocking my rear view.
The more I think about it, the more I think I want a Sport Trac as a trial truck. But, I have to knock some life things out first before I can go down that road.

Nike doesn't have a wife that wants to move to Austin, and have land with horses.
