Wow, wheeling an Escape.
And we get funny looks for wheeling the Liberty.
She didn't let me drive once, really need to get Grumpy going so I can play too.

Re: pic sof your other rides?
my two additions to the coral... man... I'm not even a 4x4 person... ](*,)
I got the 98 jeep cherokee 4L a couple of months ago for my son to learn to drive on (so my astro doesn't get wrecked). the 84 k5 blazer with a 6.2L diesel and a 700R4 trans.. it's in awesome shape, same owner since 91, retired, not winter driven ... i bought it monday and brought it home last night. (sorry for the blazer pic being so large, didn't have time to resize yet)

Nothing exciting,,2001 GMC Jimmy that I paid the balance on when my Brother died in 2006.
Been a good ride other than the intake gasket blowing.

as for the emissions tests here in ontario.. i think diesels are exempt .. either way, anything older than 1987 is exempt from testing

That blazer is really clean. I have always liked the 83-84 grills the best on these trucks, but I am a little biased.
