- 2005 Explorer Eddie Bauer
After selling my 96 xlt 5.0 a few years back I finally got the wife a new explorer this weekend.
2005 Eddie Bauer 4.0 2wd. Stone metallic paint
its so much nicer than the old 96 body style. We are the 2nd owners, was purchased used from the same dealership it was bought new. Had been serviced there for most things too.
Had been looking for about a month and finally found one that was decently priced, not beat to hell, and not red or tan. even though it has 100K miles you would never know it. Also does not have the 3rd row, which was really hard to find, we dont have kids yet so we will take advantage of the better cargo area.
I dont have much in mind for it other than driving it, but may try to find a few ways to get some more gas mileage out of it. and maybe a front leveling kit if its available.
