A base model 2wd Avalanche costs $36k? No wonder sales were down.

The guy in the other lane was like "sweet, this is gonna be an easy win, it's just an old farm tru... oh shit"

Hell, I'd pay $6k for it, completely gut it, and put some nice tires and suspension under it, make it a low cost caddy autocross car.

What if I told you it was owned by president obama, never seen the off road, and only had 20k miles on it? Seriously, I hate when people who are selling fords with 5 digit odometers try to tell you that their rig has some obscenely low amount of miles when it's obvious that the odometer has rolled over a couple times.

that looks just like the old international truck that a friend and I pulled out of his field! Ours is a little newer, it doesn't have that style of headlights. The original bed was completely rusted out, so we took off the tail lights and ripped what was left of it off with an excavator. A flatbed is in the plans for

I gotta disagree with this one. I had an explorer that had four different brands of tires on it (5 if you included the spare) and that was because that was all I could afford after doing some of the more serious maintenance.

i would think that it would be embarrassing to be seen in one of these

My dog loves riding on the flatbed of my old chev truck. I use a short rope with belt clips on either end to give her just enough slack to get her head over the edge but nothing else. I clip it onto the middle of the headache rack.

This is why I only put the back windows down enough for my german shepherds to get their head out. I'm wondering why this people seem to keep driving after their dog jumped out of the vehicle.

did anyone else get the same "next video" preview that i did? I couldn't figure out what it had to do with batteries until I realized it wasn't the same video

I really feel like #9 and #4 are before/after pictures

All-wheel-drive is not all-wheel-stop

the oil light is the one that really scares me the most when it comes on. I found out that my Explorer's light comes on when it's a quart low, so it's kind of handy since it monitors my oil level with it's small leak. But the first time it came on, I was scared that oil pressure dropped or that i was out of oil on the

I'm very guilty of a couple points here. My Explorer has valve/rocker arm/pushrod tick and while it's not getting worse, it is getting annoying. I can't really afford to take everything apart and rebuild it so my solution? Install better door speakers, turn the music up louder lol

I tested the Jiffy Lube by my place because they always told my sister that her car needed a new air filter. Air filters don't need replacement every 3k miles! So I took the smallest drill bit i could find, couldn't have been bigger than the diameter of the lead inside a pencil, and drilled a hole in one corner of the

I got in trouble once for reaching over the chains and opening the Explorer America concept at a Ford booth at the Seattle Auto show a few years back. They really don't like that kind of thing.

House.

Nah, it's just one driven by some sort of super stig who has found a way to get around the 'Ring in 21 seconds

The Zelda theme song? Really?

I'm raising the BS flag on this story. Is Jalopnik really this desperate for stories?
