- 1999 Mountaineer
Hi!
We are probably getting an Explorer or Mountaineer in the next week or so. I have been doing some research, so I know a little about them, but there is a lot of information out there to sort through. Based on our budget I think we are looking at a 1997 - 2001, most likely a Mountaineer. There are a couple of nice ones nearby, and I like the idea of a 5.0L and AWD. It will be my wife driving it 95% of the time, and we are looking for something reliable.
What I am looking for is more information on the differences for each model year in that range. Is there a difference between a 1998, and a 1999 for example. Also is there any combination I should look out for? Anything we should try to avoid? Is there an actual FAQ on these vehicles somewhere?
Any info would be helpful.
