- 00 Ford Explorer XLT 5.0
I sold my beloved 2000 Explorer 5.0 with 130k on it last year and I regret it. Trying to find another at a reasonable price is near impossible so I am considering a 02-05 Mountaineer or Explorer because theyre everywhere on craigslist but was wondering if they are drivetrain ticking time bombs like most explorers/mountaineers.
I have NOT a single spec of interest in 4.0 2nd Gens, I don't care how well it was maintained, those transmissions are junk. I would like to know if the 3rd gens can be as bulletproof as the 2nd gen 5.0s or if those days are gone
