So we are looking for something to replace our Explorer. For quite a while the little woman has been saying that when we get something else she wanted a truck. Well our daughter has side swiped a guard rail and ditched the Explorer three times all in the last two weeks (long story, all I have to say about that), so that time has come sooner than I would have liked.
So I went and drove this today. http://nmi.craigslist.org/ctd/4782197717.html I actually spotted it last week when we went grocery shopping, but the ad made me get off my butt. So I went and drove it today. And it was good, right up until it missed at 1500 rpm giveing it a little throttle, like going up a hill. Then the cam phasers got noisy. Other than that it was great.
I told them about the issues, they are fixing the miss, not the phasers, are willing to lower the price, I said no thanks, I'll keep looking, but after looking into the phaser issue, which turned out to be a whole lot less involved than I thought it was, I'm thinking about buying it if they fix the miss, because it is EXACTLY the truck we want. I don't know. I guess we'll see.
