Default Hello Everyone!

Hi everyone! I've browsed this forum for a while now and I figure that it's about time I introduce myself. I am a student and I purchased my 2001 XLT 4.0 4wd about a year ago now. I also have a 1985 ranger that I converted into a full electric vehicle my senior year of high school. Thanks for having me!

Considering my current financial situation probably paint, which it sorely needs, but I would really like to upgrade the lead-acid batteries to something like Lithium-ion, but that upgrade will cost upwards of $15,000 when all is said and done haha
