I have an interview for a much better paying job that ill hopefully get here real soon!
Ive had my first gen, a few second gens, and i've have my eyes on 3rd gens lately. I love the fact that theyre a bit bigger than the second gens, and I absolutely love everything about the interior. I wanted to get one when I was looking for my current X, but money would have been a bit too tight. (Ive noticed they seem to get a little lower MPGs, and I bet insurance is a bit higher)
Im just curious, how many of you would purchase another 3rd gen?
I hear about a hell of a lot of problems with them, most of them being some more severe issues too, like tranny, rearend, etc.
Would you buy another 3rd gen, or skip to a 4th gen? (Really only interested in the V8's, and definitely will be looking for a Limited/Eddie model.)
Im only thinking aloud here, just asking for some opinions. Im not selling my Explorer anytime soon, shes problem free & runs and drives like a champ.
(Please dont post if your gonna say that I "just" got my Explorer and whatnot. Ive had it for a year now, which I know isnt too long, but now that [hopefully] ill have a decent ammount of income, id like to possibly upgrade.)
