well guys my cobra is gone now. i got a 98 Expedition (white 4.6L) with 88k miles on it. this thing drives better than my cobra LOL! i am very happy and impressed with it. my insurance went down a ton too! i guess i saved some cash on this. my financial payments went down as well and i dont owe anything for 45 days. the dealership took my cobra for 11k and sold me my expo for 11k. i had some negative equity so it came out to 14k which is still pretty good!
i took the 4WD out for a test in a parking lot and it worked great. i made sure to check everything before getting it. i think i could get away with some 4.6L mustang parts on this thing but i will see!

it was fun being a stanger but i will return! most likely i will buy a 5.0 model in the future and make it a track machine or something! ill come up with something and ill still be around the forums saying hi.

My 96 Cobra will be over at Korum in Puyallup at some point. They may even leave the stangnet sticker decal on the window!

i really wasnt having too much fun with my 96. 88k miles is about right for a 98 expo. they had a 2000 with 110k miles on it up there. every single expo i looked at, they had more than 80k miles on it.
my wife wouldnt let me have a supercharger for my car or let me do anything else to it so i gave up and decided to move on for now. i figure i might as well get prepared for any kids that will pop up. also having 2 sports cars doesnt really help much when u are up here in the northwest! this expo will definitely come in handy for myself.

now maybe your wife will let you supercharge the Expedition. Compensation for having to get rid of your Cobra.
