The Explorer 3.5L V6. Water pump failure leads to dead engine

Also apparently the 1.5 I've had no problems though.

I thought long about whether I'd miss the extra power of the TTV6. But, coming from a 2012 4cyl Malibu, the 2.3T is a rocket, and probably a little better on fuel.
Dumping rain in Houston at the moment, so I'll get a feel its wet weather feet shortly.

Speaking about 'dumping', we here are now starting to get the snow dump from the system coming up from your lovely state. Expecting about 8+ inches by tomorrow afternoon. Thanks a lot.

We got it all in rainfall.
Tons of water in our ditches & into the yard, almost to the front door in the front & halfway up the patio in the rear.
