Hello all, 1st time on the board. I am looking to buy a used Explorer. I have done some research, test drove a 2 door Sport. Now I would like some opinions from owners on the best buy.
I know I want a 2wd 4.0 SOHC with AT and Cruise, power windows locks etc.. I am not sure about 2 door or 4, we have another SUV (4x4 Rodeo) for the family. I will not get another Rodeo, the ride quality on the hwy is too rash.
I kinda like the 2 door look, maybe the 4 door is a better buy and better for long trips. Any help here would be appreicated. Is the ride quality the same between the 2?
I know the 97 was the 1st year for the SOHC so nothing older than that. Are there any pros or cons on the different years? 97, 98, 99 or are they all about the same?
I want to stay under 10k so 99 is the newest I can get. Thanks in advance for any advice anyone may have...
