looks like factory embarrassment to me. 240 lbs/ft. that accord on driveway has same numbers swapped and has 2L less displacement. obviously ford got something wrong why did you get that? fuel economy sucks, maybe 4x4 but you dont have winter snow to use it. please dont do HID kit, it gona blind other drivers Title: Re: My 2000' Mercury Mountaineer *Modlist Updated* Post by: Blackhawk on December 21, 2009, 11:40:53 AM Quote from: "AV6NHBP6SPD" factory feature: 5.0L 210hp V8 looks like factory embarrassment to me. 240 lbs/ft. that accord on driveway has same numbers swapped and has 2L less displacement. obviously ford got something wrong why did you get that? fuel economy sucks, maybe 4x4 but you dont have winter snow to use it. please dont do HID kit, it gona blind other drivers Always owned these 3rd gen Expys. Love their dependability. Mine does about 20 MPG and good enough for me. If I want Fuel Economy and speed I just drive the Hawk. Easy Title: Re: My 2000' Mercury Mountaineer *Modlist Updated* Post by: Mike on December 21, 2009, 11:41:27 AM Looks good

I'm more than glad to come down and do the install. That's my next mod. I was thinking one RF T2 15" and a T1000 Monoblock amp along with a 4-way amp for the doors. What can you recommend? Thanks! -JT Title: Re: My 2000' Mercury Mountaineer *Modlist Updated* Post by: timot_one on December 22, 2009, 05:00:41 PM Do you want it loud or do you want it to sound good?
