    I just purchased a 2006 Explorer EB with 167K (roughly) and drove it 1.5hrs home. I then was driving around town just fine.

    Sort of an update to the "Nagging Issues". In the old thread, the truck did not want to go into reverse. It would wait until the gas peddle was tapped bringing the rpms up then it would hard-shift into reverse. Dealer couldn't duplicate the error even tho they changed parts previously to it...
