1998 Ford Explorer with the 5.0, AWD. Has 194k miles and climbing. Starts and runs great. I inherited this vehicle from my uncle back in January, he went into a nursing home. We originally found it for him in Columbus, the guy who had it previously took incredible care of it, he had given us a huge stack of service records from the time it was new. My uncle had it a couple years and it has been a great daily driver.

 

The good:

No rust on the body.

Clean interior.

Transmission replaced last year

New Cam sensor

New Idle air control valve

Oil always changed every 3k miles

Brakes recently serviced, brake line replaced.

 

 

 

The Bad:

Needs O2 sensor replaced (Comes with replacement)

Needs Wheel Speed sensor replaced FR side (Comes with replacement)

Needs hood struts replaced (Comes with replacements)

Needs front Diff fluid checked/changed. The diff will bind a little bit after driving long distances. Been doing it quite a while, hasn't gotten any worse, shop I took it to thinks it just needs the fluid changed.

 

 

Recently drove it to PA without problems. I drive it to work 60 miles one way all the time without any issues. Only reason I am getting rid of it is, we have 6 cars, this one is an extra we just don't need and I don't have time to work on it. CR Price $1500.
