    Towing Opinions

    I am building a new home, so I have to move. I got a good friend that owns a 16 or 18 foot tandem axle trailer. Will my explorer pull it fine or should I not. !98 ex with v6. Pretty much a stock explorer. I don't have anything terribly heavy to move just the usual couches, tables, and beds. thanks:D

    Hitches Help

    2 to choose Drawtite makes one and Hidden Hitch makes one, some say they have a gap between the bumper and hitch. Some say little to no gap which would be the best bet...... Someone here said drawtite actually looks better, don't know where I read that though I would ask. :D

    Rattling noise

    Sol The service manager said he could not find anything malfunctioning to replace. He told me that it is absolutely safe to drive, it just makes a rattle. I think he is tired of me bringing it back and finally won't work on it. I guess I will try the wd-40 thing and try to single it out. I...
