Brought home a new (to us) four-wheeled critter tonight. A sorta-RBV this time.



05 Explorer (I know the IRS years are debated as to their actual RBV-ness), 96K miles, 4.0, 4x4, sun roof, good air, perfect shifts, no chain noise. It has a broken mirror, a leaking axle seal, and a tiny bit of gear whine above 60.
Has a little hail damage from a bad storm that passed through the area a few weeks ago. It will need a hood and a few hours with the ding-n-dent guy.
All in all, not a bad buy for $3000.
