Thinking about buying a late model Explorer. What are some of the problem areas that I should look at.

Are you pleased with yours? Would you buy another? If not what would you consider?
Is there a best year?

2007 EB 4.0 2WD 96K + never been back to the dealer for anything. Still great ride & drive with best transmission ever. As high as 24 mpg long trips legal + speeds highway only. As low as 12 mpg in town driving only, lots of idle time, winter & summer. Hope this helps.
