    Sudden battery death?

    Like I said, you provided zero helpful information, you self important, condescending dick. I already admitted my mistake and was asking this community of enthusiasts about the technical details of why this vehicle was behaving this way in an attempt to learn more about my car. Internet tough...

    Wow, thanks for the patronizing reply with zero helpful content. You must be fun at parties.

    Sudden battery death?

    Hey all, We have a 2018 Limited on the original battery. Last time I had service done the place told me the battery was low and replace it before it got really cold. Makes sense. I bought a new one but had it in the garage for the weekend since I didn’t have a chance to change it...

    Rhino 3000 push bar

    Thanks for the replies; EVILTOW that pic looks great. I just ordered one that I picked as a Christmas present, so even though I'll have to wait for the install I'm psyched! I'll post some pics when it's on...

    Rhino 3000 push bar

    Hello all- I was talking to a local cop I know who used to drive a 2nd gen Expy as a squad. He said they used Rhino push bars and loved them. He mentioned that he'd used it to push vehicles around; I don't think we're talking high speed PIT maneuvers, but anyway. On their website it says...

    What to look for when buying a gen 2 expy

    It was all true! Had my 2005 Eddie Bauer a year and a half now and still going great. Did have to shell out $600 for plugs (I tried them myself but could only get 1 to budge and spark plug wells were full of gravel) but that's the last time I'll ever have to do that. Have a very occasional...

    Notchy steering fixed... for now?

    Hey all- My Expedition was suffering from the notchy steering issue, where it felt like the steering wheel was going through detents of more or less resistance as I turned it. Based on the advice of others, I hosed down the u-joints and everything else I could find on the steering shaft out...

    2005 eddie bauer rims and rust?

    Here's an update. I couldn't find the powdered stuff, but I bought a bottle of Weiman's glass cooktop cleaner paste and a 3 pack of non abrasive scrubbers. I spent 10 minutes doing half of my nastiest rim and the results were astounding. It cut through the crap pretty fast. I didn't have to...

    2005 eddie bauer rims and rust?

    Hey all, I have a 2005 EB with severe brake dust baked into one rim. I wonder if some of it is rust now. Are these rims clear coated, or can I hit it with some 0000 steel wool?

    What to look for when buying a gen 2 expy

    Gone and done it! Well, I used all your advice and everything I've accumulated over the years and picked out a 2005 Eddie Bauer. I'll post a picture in an appropriate forum when I get it in a few days. Really excited; everything seems to be in great shape and it doesn't even have any bubbling...

    What to look for when buying a gen 2 expy

    Thanks Thanks for the info. I'm going to take it out, plug it in to the local shop's computers, and give it the once-over. Hoping for a good car; this one seems really nice!
