From Utah

[M.Sowder]

Hi, my name is Melissa. I just bought my first Ford Expedition about 3 weeks ago and I love it! I am looking to doing some upgrades to it and getting it the way that I will love it even more. I am very open minded and would love to hear any suggestions that anyone might have. My Expedition is a '97 White (for now but would like to change that eventually) Eddie Bauer. My husband and I are proud owners of mostly fords. We have a Ford taurus, he has a Ford Maverick and a Jeep (CJ7). If you want to know anything else feel free to ask. I will post a pic as soon as possible!

I am looking to lift it at least 4 inches right now since I just had a baby 6 months ago I don't want to have it to difficult to get in to.

This is the first vehicle I have been super excited about... I am looking to change the headlights to these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=390166145060&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT. We will see what more will come as I go

I like the lights but be advised any projector lights are gonna suck with brightness compared to non-projector... that is why i got the ones I currently have... I wanted projectors but decided against it

Thanks for the heads up! I am still looking. I just really like that style. Any other suggestions? To be honest I don't know much about them but I do know that I want my ride to look good lol. I used to leave all the parts to the hubby until I got this and now I am telling him what I want.

we could have fun with this we will post a meliisa to add list and you can give that to your hubby, now that would be funny, we could put you in to him for about 30,000$, lifts, tires, sterio, performance mods, hmmmm it could be endless. lmao

I like those too, now you got me thinking

 

[walnuts4x4]

this site is bad for that... making you think... that just adds to the saying a truck is never done............

another way to "dress it up" a little is to get the lightning headlights and corners...i had them on my white one and they looked good. now i have the black lightning headlights and corners on this one.
