December 2023's “Panzer of the Month” is my very own bone stock 2010 MGM. I bought it October 2018 with 65K Miles for $2,500. It’s the reason I started this YouTube Channel February 2019. Five years later of uneventful maintenance & repairs it has 95K Miles, and is almost broken in. The Light Ice Blue Metallic paint, and tan leather was not my first choice but the price, and condition was right. I bought it from a Bible & Bingo couple from Brookings, Oregon that owned it from 2010 to 2018. My most recent repair was replacing the saggy, worn out rear springs, and shocks. I installed MOOG CC865 Springs, and Monroe 58628 Load Adjusting Shocks. The shocks provided a 1.5” inch lift over factory ride height. The shocks are direct fit from 1997-2003 F-150 no modifications required. Now when I load 500lbs. of luggage, or my ex mother in-law, the rear sits 1” inch higher than the front, instead of Carolina Squat. I also just put on a set of (5) Michelin Defenders, (full size spare). Tap photos for widescreen. -Chuck
