Here's a sweet photo op from when I met up with a fellow member of ExplorerX - Tommy98016 - who has the beautiful, immaculate white 1998 0016 Saleen XP8. It's supercharged, has Recaros, and has never seen rain. This was in Englishtown, NJ at the Fun Ford Weekend back in 2004.

The above pictures are from the Fun Ford Weekend at the Englishtown, NJ event. That is my Explorer next to Tommy's 98-16 *real* Saleen Explorer XP8. For more pictures of this event and to watch videos of his XP8 on the highway please click here to visit ExplorerX.com

This Explorer is my pride and joy and I have no intention of getting rid of it until it just dies on me. I've never appreciated any other car like this one. For more pictures of my truck, please click here .

Rob ... Luv the X ... I have a 97 and I have 99 bumper with chrome lamp pockets that I need to repaint and install ... I'm loving that front spoiler ... can you tell me where I can find one? Stuff for this body style is kinda hard to find (especially being 10 years old) ... come check me out - tell me what you think - Bigg Jonn
