    i'm glad to know the truck will last many many years to come! i really love it..so reliable and ready to go any time. MPGs are great and the size is a nice happy medium between the excursion and explorer. few more mods in the plans..we'll see what another 2 years brings her :)

    knocking on startup

    6 passenger suv delima

    yeah if its not giving you problems i would fix it as things go wrong and keep up/do all maintenance and that's about all you can ask of a older truck. age and mileage doesn't really matter so long as you take care of it..it will take care of you.

    Overdrive question

    i lock mine out as soon as i get in the truck, only time i allow it to go into O/D is at highway speeds (65+) for a long enough period if time to make it worth it. i hate the tranny hunting for gears as that creates heat and heat is the No.1 killer of auto trannys.
