I just took some more pictures of my new Explorer and posted them in the Photo gallery on Hambones (in the Misc photo album). Tim took it by the dealership this morning (also took care of the tag and insurance for us, what a sweetie pie!) and they cleaned it all up. I thought that was probably the best time for pictures – it probably won’t ever be that clean and shiny again!
I also made a new photo album in the Hambones photo section (page 2) for Brittany and Zack. Linda sent me some pictures of them riding a neighbor’s horse and also of a fish they caught that was over 36″ long. Those are now in their photo album. 🙂
VERY PRETTY car…….I think I like the color, kinda maroonish and it is really shiny !!
good job.

Nice! I especially like the first shot…..have you noticed how well the two look together! Tim’s truck and your car? check it out, they kinda match! with that red showing on the end of his truck!
Thank you, sister dears! We really like the color too. Ford named it “Fire Red Metallic”, but in a lot of light, it really looks like a maroon or dark red, rather than what we would call fire (engine) red. And yes, we think the two look really good together! One reason I picked this Explorer is because of the interior – the last several cars I have had, have had tan interiors, and Tim’s truck has grey leather interior and I just love it. So, I wanted grey interior and the maroon and grey looked really good together, we thought. One thing you probably can’t tell from the photos is that there is some nice dark grey moulding on this one – it’s an XLT Sport and they have similar mouldings to the Eddie Bauer edition, except they are not two-tone. We really liked this, liked the look.
It’s so nice to see them when they are all new and shiny, huh?! 🙂
Maybe you can keep it looking like that! Don had the men wash his truck at work one day and it has looked really good! Mine, it never gets washed! The kids won’t even do it when I offer to pay them! 🙁
Wow, I didn’t think ya’ll would buy something so soon. I knew ya’ll were looking. The Explorer looks great. Nice choice.
