I have to agree on the cup holder thing...I mean wtf?
trying to curb drinking and driving maybe?

Lol but seriously, it seems car makers thought a cup holder was an accessory until the 90s... Thats why the previous owner in my truck added some.

a two-cup inline holder screwed right into the carpet (wouldn't be space for it on my old 5speed though) and that shiny skull hanging off the vent! lol

My truck's good on gas (last long trip was 28.6mpg) it hauls whatever I need, it's roomy enough for me and it still runs like a top.


My only gripe about it is that my stupid-self crashed it. :bawling:

Dont hate anything Really.
Solved my Cup Holder Problem though. Went to Autozone, bought a 5$ Cup holder, cut the back half off and kept the Cup Holder part. :icon_welder:

Gas mileage and low power. I think this is pretty clear amongst all of us lol.

And specifically for me, the ugly looking steelies, but I will be changing that in good time.

When I really think about it, this truck doesn't have too many faults (it's a truck, it's going to get low MPGs and it's going to ride a little rough so...), I'm a Chevy guy at heart but this Ford/Mazda has grown on me....

And after the load I hauled today, I hate that I rebuilt my 3.0 instead of doing a 4.0 swap.......I think I see a wrecked out 5.0 Explorer in my future.....that would rock!
