Potential 2006 Explorer Purchase
Just to update...I went through with the purchase. $8195 was the price. Traded an 09 Cobalt that was paid for. Got $2500 for it plus $1500 off the $8195. That left me around $4700 with taxes, etc. Got to thinking with no more than that to invest, I asked about a ESP. Said they could do the Ford...- PaulieP17

I guess it's just a roll of the dice like any other used vehicle. Thanks for the input from everyone. It's greatly appreciated.- PaulieP17

Yeah, I'm really re-thinking this. I may try to see if I can find an 07 or 08. They don't seem to have the amount of issues as the 06.- PaulieP17

Potential 2006 Explorer Purchase
Hello all. I'm thinking about buying an 06 Explorer with 127,000 miles. 3 owners and clean carfax with regular services documented. My only concern is the number of issues I've read about tranny and radiator problems. I don't expect to buy a used vehicle problem free but the number of issues...- PaulieP17
