Hi All, just to say hi and introduce the new toy.
Having a need for a large tow vehicle to tow a fairly large trailer the hunt was on for a suitable vehicle. A vauxhall (GM) frontera was high on the list as they were cheap, then a friend picked up an Explorer and after a few complimentary comments the search was on.
Fleabay turned up the result, a 1997 4.0 explorer in black, 86k, had some problems but nothing that isn't sortable it seems. I have spent a lot of time looking through the forums and found this one especially useful
Anyway, parts supply is lousy in the uk now but i have a copy of Chiltons manual arrived today so hopefully with that and bothering everyone here qith questions i can get the truck back in tip top condition.
