- '99 Explorer EB 5.0
Hi, Tomorrow im going to see an Explorer Eddie Bauer 1999 which is on sale for $1,900. It is going to be my first car. The current owner didnt tell me much about it. (engine, tranny, ect)
My mother owns a 1999 Eddie Bauer with the v8 and the 4R70W and it never have given us a problem.-
So my questions are:
-If the new one is a v6, it is a good choice?
-That engine (v6) give timing chains problems, like the other v6's on the XLS?
-And if it is equipped with the 5R55E or the M5OD-R1HD, those transmissions tend to give preblems?
I would appreciate any help!
Thanks!
