Update since last post!

Now just over 104,000 miles and the Ex still purrs like a kitten. No repairs which is surprising because I drive the thing a little hard on the highway. Still waiting when I have enough free time to put it up in the air but until then I'll stick with engine mods

I just bought this truck off of a friend of mine who traded it for his 80 Firebird. I have only seen one pic of it, its silver and looks to be in good condition. It apparently need a 3rd timing chain.

1993 xlt 4 door 4x4
$1000
242,000 miles when i picked it up.
250,500 miles on it this morning.

i haven't had this truck very long, but i love it. aside from my ranger, it's the most fun vehicle i've ever owned. i had a jeep wrangler for about 6 months when i was in high school, but never went off road. when i took the explorer off road a few weeks back, i was amazed. since then, i've got a set of 31" tires and removed the rear sway bar for the trail ride later this morning. i have moderate plans for this truck and truly think that my family and i will have a lot of fun with it.

also, i've got a line on a 60,000 mile motor that i'm going to probably pick up this weekend. that'll freshen her up a bit! lol.

'97 XLT 4X4
OHV Engine
Bought in 2001 w/34k miles for $12,000
Now has 130k miles.
No major problems, except A/C Compressor blew about 1 year ago (replaced of course). Also had to replace the upper intake O Ring gaskets. Very well maintaned since I have owned it. Runs and rives great. Looks great too, garage kept.

Very happy Owner.

Also have
'04 XLT 4X4
SOHC Engine
Bought in 2008 w/35k miles for $12,000 (bought after gas prices started climbing)

No issues at all so far. Also runs and drives great, though we hate the BF Goodrich tires on it (too noisy at highway speed). This one is my wife's truck.
