Talking small, medium, or large?

A pic of our 3 vehicles. I decided to take the pic since I'm unlikely to have 3 vehicles for long. The RX is going to be sold though sadly since we don't need it now.

Nice vehicles Bit!

In Georgia, are you able to keep those beautiful wheels on all year round?

Thanks Anthony! Yup, no problem with any wheels here in Georgia. Roads are smooth. No snow usually (maybe 1/2" every other year). I love it. I lived in PA for 12 years and Toronto for 3 so I've had my fill of snow!!

Here's a close-up of my front rims and brakes I took while cleaning 'em today. They're a ***** to clean, but look nice when they're done!

Very beautiful wheels bit.

I live in NJ so I'm always stuck in some kind of cold or wet weather, and hence, have the stockers on.

Enjoy the wheels!

Wow bit, those HRE's really fill the wheel wells nicely I have my RX for sale right now - there are very many on the market right now. I'm guessing it's a lot of off-lease 2000's.

How do you like the F-150? My pops is thinking of trading in his "2000 EB Expedition for one.

Have any more pics of the F-150? It looks sweet!

Finally Paul has cleaned his awesome wheels!!! Could you not have dried them off first before taking pics??? I love those STOPTECH's!!!! I keep thinking when I eventualy get mine on the car, they will look better than yours because of the more open look of the 447R's!!!! Just bugging you Paul!!!!!

I wish I lived in a climate like yours for the winter. My GS has been parked for only a month and I am already suffering from GS400 deprivation sickness. Insomnia, driving imaginary GS400's, uncontrollable gawking at other GS400's......................

Ya know, I really like driving it! Handle's like an ocean liner compared to my GS, but it sure is fun sitting up high in a HUGE cockpit.

Besides the towing capacity and rigidness of the truck, the exterior and interior are what sold me. Ford did a great job.

I did buy an extended warranty though, since I'm still leery of things down the road!

Here's a thread where I posted some more pics.

That might be true if yours were 19's and not 18's. Back atcha

Yes, I was in Markham (outside Toronto for everyone else) for 24 hours the other day (sorry no time to get in touch, Hameed) and someone I was travelling with asked why is every car gray? I told him it was the salt and road grime from the winter there. You're absolutely doing the right thing keeping your baby in hibernation!

Bit,

nice stable. A year or so ago we would have had an almost identical pic...my GS, wife's RX and my Expedition (Expy replaced by the GX now).

Have you been over to f150online.com yet? Pretty good site, alot of 150 lightning people over there, but everyone on there is as mod crazy as the members on CL.
