- 2002 Explorer Xlt V8
I havent had my 2002 Explorer XLT V8 for too long. I bought it in the end of January. And already ive gone through the love hate cycle faster than i expected.
First i loved it,then i hated the explorer for its truck like handling and slowness. Then i took in for a tune up and got 4 new pirelli atr's and ditched those pitiful stocks and it handles awesome and feels allot faster. So now i love it again.
But a few days ago i drove my friends Aviator since my trucks been in the shop cuz of a hit and run. That aviator is sweet inside and out and feels faster and smoother. It has the heated and cooled seats. Xenons. The sweet looking grill and everything. I checked online and around here i can get a 2004 Aviator AWD loaded with 25,000 miles for about 17,000-22,000.
I LOVE how quick this car has depreciated.
My warrantys ending in 10,000 more miles and 1 more year. Id be terified to drive without that with all the problems my X has had. And at 80,000 miles who knows whats going next. I still owe 15g on it though
My payment would jump from 273 to about 350 and im really upside down on this explorer. Any ideas
