Hello! Well, I got L322-Pilled. Ooops! 2008, 4.4L v8 obs.
Stop me if you've heard this before. Guy in his mid 40s, wife tired of riding in his truck, he was tired of riding in her small SUVs. Neither of us could find a compromise, until...
Paid $5K for this. Wish me luck!
GOOD:
- 103K miles
- mostly 1 owner for 90K miles from what I can tell
- New water pump, radiator, and fuel pump last 20K miles
BAD:
- uh, was a MI car for most of its life, now down in FL
- ergo, has some rust on the rear hatch (bonnet!) and both rear wheel wells (you know the place)
WHAT IT NEEDS:
- oil change and new brakes and rotors happening rn
- headliner sagging
- more baselining: spark plugs, coils (?), transmission and diff fluid
- def need to find a rear hatch
- else?
OH! And geeze, what do I do about this key situation? Only came with what you see here, suddenly it's the 80s/90s again and we're pre-fob-era.
Hope to make this our reliable highway cruiser.
