Default Sold the Bonny, new ride whorage

Well I hated to do it, but I needed to sell the Bonny. I needed a truck that would better fit what I like to do like camping, boating, and exploring (no pun intended) all the off road trails here in Oregon, and be able to tow (mostly our boat, but sometimes a utility trailer).

I had the Bonny for over two years and sold it last week for $2200, which was $200 more than I bought it for

My family has always had Explorers while I grew up and we've never had any problems with them. I've always wanted one and I finally got my very own. It'* a 1998 XLT (I can still be EK98, haha) with 138k and a new tranny with 15k on it. I stole it for $2950, as it blue books for $5100 private party. I couldn't be happier with it and the deal I got. Here are some pics of it. A few out by the river and some back in a familiar location where the Bonny once was.

Same year... same color... lol. Boo Ford! Durango FTW! That thing looks to be in good shape, though, and I do like that color on that bodystyle.
