- 2010 Explorer XLT
Just purchased a 2010 Ford Explorer XLT yesterday. It seems like it's going to be a nice vehicle. There are a couple "bugs" to work out, that I'm sure I'll need pointed in the right direction, such as the cruise control isn't working, and the air conditioning blows really well for a couple minutes, then stops, then starts again....
My first questions have to do with maintenance though. I'm hoping to take this on a 2,000+ mile road trip. Obviously, I want to handle any maintenance beforehand. Looking through the scheduled maintenance, I'm a bit shocked that they aren't calling for the spark plugs to be changed. My question is this....If you just purchased this vehicle, what would you make sure was handled before a road trip? According to the car fax, it's been to the dealership almost it's whole life for PM work...But I'm only seeing oil changes, air filters and a power steering flush being done. It has 120,000 miles on it.
Thanks for any insight!
