Awesome thread.... congrats to you all.

On and off I have been thinking about replacing X with another (newer one perhaps) or some other car, worrying about long term reliability mostly... and I keep going back to wanting to keep this one longer. The newer ones are prettier and roomier for sure, but the price difference, I just can't justify, especially when this one keeps driving the way it does.

Threads like these give me hope.

I hit 100k the other day in my '03 4.4. The only major thing so far was the $3k i spent on valve cover gaskets, oil seperater, valley pan and gasket...not too shabby really. Love this car though. I need to upgrade the rest of the stereo though...

Slight thread hijack here, but you might want to do a search on the forum about the output shaft from the transfer box. That might be the sound you are hearing
