- 2000 Exploder
Hey guys, I just have an odd question.
I owned a 1997 5.0 AWD exploder, it had the nice "bucket" seats, 6 disc cd changer. Over all pretty well equipped. It also had a towing package of sorts. It had a brake booster (i think thats what that was as I never used it). Under the steering column there was a black gizmo for that.
Well long story short I sold that exploder and purchased a 2000 LIMITED explorer.
Same deal, 5.0 AWD but its the limited package. No towing package on this one.
Now, I am not sure if that last explorer had an after market towing setup installed or if that was a factory option.
The "new" one I got has all the bells and whistles. Digital climate control (old one had just regular knobs), "better" audio package that includes a factory sub (which SUCKS), and that odd on board computer thing that shows you your mileage, system check/info thing...
My main question is...
Is it possible that my last exploder had different gears or something like that? I swear this "new" one is quite a bit more sluggish when I mash the loud pedal... Its driving me nuts!
