Well, times are getting hard. I am letting go of my 94 xlt explorer with 130,000 miles. It has run great and there have been tranny/engine/electrical problems with it. The only minor problem is the AC, which hasn't worked for 3 years. It is in good condition, do you think 4,000 is a decent...

I have a little question for yous guys. It started about a month ago and I noticed when I pressed the brake pedal hard, then the red Brake IP light would come on, but lately even when I press the brakes lightly, the light comes on. Should this be of some concern? Thanks in advance, Ryan

Just wondering if lifted explorers are considered rare. I bring this topic up because the city I live in has a population of 40000 and I have only seen 2 noticably lifted explorers in the past year or so. To get to my question, do explorers get lifted less(percentage wise) that other SUVs and...

Just a small question for you guys. I am not trying to be negative or give a bad rap to explorers(after all I have one myself). The question is, What Offroad Potential to Explorers really have? My buddies say that they are front end heavy, and don't have the ability to do much four-wheeling...

This probably has been posted somewhere in this site recently, but since I am new I will pop the question again. Is it worth it getting a flowmaster exhaust for an explorer, anyone have one? Any other cheap mods you can recommend? Thanks, Ryan
