I have an '03 Limited Explorer with 155k and a seized engine. The body is in good shape with no visible rust. the interior is comfortable and also in good shape. Generally speaking I very much like the truck. I am sure there are some unknown mechanical issues waiting to pop up, but other than the engine pooping out, it drove great.
If this was your (almost) 15 year old vehicle (purchased 3 months ago), would you wave goodbye to it, or would you try to breath new life into it.
I should mention that I am not an engine guy, so I'd be hiring someone to do this for me. Either a shop, or a craigslist guy with a crane.
Should I fix the vehicle and plan on keeping it forever, or should I just scrap it and pour a strong drink?
