    Ever been taken by a salesman?

    Have to vent, long story I will try and make short. In August 2004 I purchased a dealer demo Expedition for the wife. Had 5,000 and some change on it. Got a great deal. One of the sticking points with me was the warranty. I asked the salesman when the 3/36 started on the vehicle because I...

    So, the other day I unbolted the exhaust from the cat to see what the sound was like. Drove it for about 15 miles and then when I got home I had the wife rev it for me while I stood outside (sound was pretty sweet by the way). After I had her shut it down I could hear the turbo spinning for...

    Advice Needed

    So I am looking at doing some exhaust upgrades and tossing around a couple of ideas. On one hand, I can get an AFE cat delete pipe for about $50 and then get a muffler delete pipe for about $80 bucks and have an open exhaust that I can still put the cat or muffler in if I don't like it. My...
