    my mother-in-law just called me and told me some more about the Exploder... so here goes

    it is an auto, not a stick as she had previously said... no biggie there

    The owner had problems trying to get the truck out of park, and there was some kind of problem with the brakes... ill have to see what my bro-in-law says about it when he checks it out.

    so some big updates...

    the exploder is a 5.0 and AWD. most of the "issues" with it was just a non-knowledgeable person behind the wheel. there are some very VERY minor issues with it, and those are only annoyances.

    i do have one question... what are the biggest tires i can fit on the stock suspension/rims?
