Talking My new to me 2006 4.4i in Imola Red!
Love it. Has 18k miles with the 100k CPO warranty. 4.4i with pretty much everything. Nav, 19" wheels, premium, premium sound, sliding load floor (!), cold weather package, etc etc. Interior is grey / black with the sport package and the outside is obvious I LOVE Imola Red and searched near and far for this one. Sticker was $67k as equipped and I paid $35k out the door CPO. Could have found it a little less probably but not CPO'd with that low miles. So I'm happy with it.

I got it home and immediately installed Invision DVD Headrests (Lawrence rocks by the way! If you don't have them, go buy some!!!) and had my exhaust shop do an x-pipe for me. That was $150 out the door for everything. It really made the truck sound great and is a welcome improvement. Thanks to this board for that!

I also updated the Nav and changed a few things.

The paint and body are like new, but I plan on going ahead and stripping it down with Dawn, then clay bar'ing it and putting a nice coat of cleaner wax down followed by some P21S carnuba to make it shine better than ever!

Sorry for the crappy photos... they're just off the iPhone.

Adam

Mostly just for making the exhaust note sound louder without it being too loud like straight pipes. Do a search on X-pipe and you'll get more info.

Congrats. Nice rig. It's nice to have another Texan onboard. And P21s is great stuff- been using it for 8 years on mine.

Nice. iPhone pics not so bad. Tough in low light.

thanks! It was purchased and registered new in Vegas, so the engine bay and undercarriage appear to have never seen rain!
