So I am in the market for an explorer platform vehicle and I haven't really given much thought into the Aviator, I know it has the 4v 4.6. Is it a reliable vehicle? most I am looking at are around the 170k mark. What are the common failures that owners have experienced? What is the price of parts in comparison to a base explorer? I used to own a 99 mounty and it was my favorite vehicle that I have owned, I love the idea of having that 302 hp engine under the hood but I worry about aftermarket and affordabilty as well as reliabilty. I'd love to hear from long time owners.
