- 97 Explorer XLT
Hi, I've got 307,000 on my 97 XLT, 2WD V6 SOHC. It's gonna go any time now in spite of the constant love I've given it. I want to replace it with the same or as close to the same as I can get. I had a V8 AWD 97 and hated it. I like the low hassle 2WD and have never had an issue getting stuck, even when using it in Alaska for 8 years. Can someone help guide me to a model year around that time that is pretty similar? I'd like to keep mine around for parts if at all possible. In my area there are tons of these in the 4wd model but I haven't seen any 2wd. Am open to suggestions. Thanks!
