That’s kinda funny, I did the exact same thing. But then soon after sold her old car I took over for another SHO. Unfortunately, she’s not in love with the Explorer. She thinks it’s too big. Which it kind of is, definitely designed for much larger people. Her arms don’t reach either armrest.
I mean with all due respect that's why you dont buy a huge suv if you dont need a huge suv lol. I think people these days want suv because they think they are "supposed" to want one lol. Hive mind. But yeah id rather have the SHO myself its huge enough for me and im 6 foot 3 275 lbs

My wife's Explorer is in the shop from getting hit by a teenager. They gave her an Expedition Max as the rental. It won't even fit in the garage but she absolutely loves it. Stupid Enterprise. I'm not buying another SUV any time soon. I've got a kid about to turn 15 and another 18 months behind her. I'm broke for at least the next 3 to 8 years .

Started on the new spark plugs and coils earlier. The rear 3 were mostly slightly annoying. I had to break the ones on the front free with a bar but fine after. That middle front though, I had to soak about a half inch of oil out of it, then had to use a breaker the entire way out. It looks a previous owner screwed up the threads on the plug before they put it in the car. Used the endoscope and saw it looked like it still had threads toward the bottom, called my friend and we decided to just send it, he can take care of it when the motor's out for the torque converter. Looks like I'll be doing the front valve cover gaskets and plug tubes tomorrow when i can get the parts and a damn T45 for the hpfp...

Replaced all the gaskets and O-rings on the front valve cover and added some parts my friend kept when he sold his 2014. Upr catch can with the front side blocked off(idk, he ripped the junction hose and gave up on it I guess), EPP noisemaker delete with Tial BOV(just covering the hole for now). I still need to do the thermostat and decide if I want to do the rest of the hot pipes with that BOV or keep my stocks and pull the tial and block off the holeIMG 20260109 123842656 HDR2

It baffles me on how people can do things.

Actually, we did. Needed something capable of pulling our camper, that wasn’t a truck.
