So I have been gone a while, replaced the old explorer with a 4runner a few years back. Anyway I am looking to buy an explorer again and had a few questions regarding a the newer models.
One I have been looking at is a 2006 XLT with 4.6 V8, Leather Seats, and more. It is low mileage and in very good condition! My questions are:
Is the 4.6l a reliable engine? I mean really reliable, and does it have any inherent issues that need to be addressed on a regular basis? My old explorer was a 95 with the old 4.0 push rod engine, that beast is still running today with over 250,000 miles on it! Are these newer models good like the old ones.
Is there anything/year/model I need to avoid?
Hey thanks for the help!
