<td>I bought this Explorer used as a more versatile version of my 1998
Ford F-150.&nbsp; I loved my F-150 but I was hesitant to take it off-road
because it was so nice.&nbsp; Then I got caught up with some Explorer 4-wheelers
and after seeing them off-road a few times my mind was made up.&nbsp; I
sold my truck and bought the Explorer.&nbsp; Unfortanetly it came fairly
stock, but that was taken care of soon enough.&nbsp; Some even said it
was the fastest complete build-up they'd seen in an Explorer - at one event
the only modification was a GPS and by the next event everything was done.&nbsp;
Fortunately because I hung out with Explorer owners before making my purchase
I already knew exactly what I wanted - from hearing about peoples good
and bad experiences and making my decision from there. I've also had the
good fortune of being able to help promote companies such as PIAA Professional
Halogen systems and Mickey Thompson tires with my Explorer, and I hope
to be able to work with more in the future.&nbsp;
<p>So far I've taken advantage of the opportunity to go four-wheeling in
some great locations, all over the state of Colorado and attending the
Truckhaven Hills run in January.&nbsp; In the upcoming months I hope to
be able to travel even more, going to Kansas, Moab, Silver Lake Michigan,
and possibly more!&nbsp;
