Hello all
I am new to Explorer world.
I decided I need an SUV that canb suit my needs
I landed at either the Grand Cherokee or the Explorer.
I have owned a few Jeeps, but never a Ford. So, I am familiar with the 5.2 V8 and the 4.0L Jeep U6.
Obviously, I know many of you are biased about which SUV is better, and I understand that.
I just need some help in decided where I want to go.
I don't really want to off-road. I wouldn't mind a small lift with some newer Explorer wheels for the look though
However, I do want amenities. So, the Eddie Bauer is what I am looking at. I found a Sport two door EB with 120K on the clock and heated seats with sunroof. Those are kind of important to me, so I was intrigued. It had the 4.0L 6 with 4x4 and not AWD.
Anyway, in any Explorer, what should I look for in a daily driver mindset? Reliability bits and such.
What should I expect for longevity with exceptional maintenance? I take very good care of my vehicles. Is 250,000 miles unreasonable?
Any insight on what I should look out for is helpful.
Thank you
