I'll be selling my Explorer soon because...

I bought a 2008 Mazda 6i Sport VE this weekend. 2.3L, 5 speed manual, and all the other usual goodies you expect on a car these days. Mazda has a $2750 rebate on the 6 right now (redesigned 6 coming out for 2009) so I got a great price on it. I already have two people interested in the Explorer, so it shouldn't be an issue selling it.

Plans right now are for keeping it stock, other than adding my Sirius setup, and possibly a subwoofer later on. I have my Miata for modifying!

That's a good looking car-
where is it in the insurance scale if you don't mind me asking?

I never really paid attention to those before but yeah-it looks real nice. I like it a lot.

According to what I found online, it falls towards slightly higher than average, but from what my agent told me it isn't really that high (I'm 43 and have a clean record so that helps a lot).

Well, I sold the Explorer Saturday. My best friend bought it, so I'll still get to ride in it occasionally. It was a good ride for me the last nine years, but I felt it was time to move on to something else.
