The first is a 97 4.6 2v 5spd 4x4 123K for $1100, the second is a 2002 5.4 2V auto 4x4 278K for $1000

The first has possibly a timing chain issue(No cam phasers in this engine), the second has a blown out plug. Daughter needs a vehicle soon, she has a horse and wants to be able to pull a horse trailer, and she has been working and saving her money, so one of these will be hers.

Always loved that body style.

Like I said one of these will be for my daughter, she really wanted the 2014 F-150 extracab I had, but traded for the GMC

I see you aren't collecting 3v's... LOL
Plug shouldn't be hard. I encountered someone in the middle of nowhere Kansas at a gas station with an ejected plug. They obviously had no mechanical experience. I told them what had happened and that they weren't going to fix this themselves there. They hopped back in it and took off for their 300mi drive.

Yeah, I am back and forth on buying the plug repair kit, since both engines are prone to this issue it might be a good investment LOL

Figured why not

Yesterday, we got 3 movie tickets to Matrix 4. My kid waited for about 15mo to watch this. This is my first time about since 2009 or 2011 that I've been to movie theater, and they did change a lot.
Seating was the most surprising. Reclining chair was a huge surprise.

Were you there?

Haha. My son and I are going to the new Spider Man movie tomorrow. Will be the first time we've been to a theater in almost 2 years.

I've been telling him the joy of sneaking food into the theater. Asked him what he wanted to bring, thinking he'd say 'Twinkies' or something. He said 'Mac & Cheese'.

Will be interesting to have a Zip Lock bag full of warm mac & cheese shoved down my cargo pants pockets, but I'm game.

I may devote a little time to watch the new Matrix movie over the weekend.

I?ll be watching it on HBO in the comfort of my own home.
