New Truck.

Hey everyone, I was hoping to get some opinions. I currently have a 1998 Ranger XLT, 4X4 3.0L Auto "off-road". It's ok, I've had the normal problems (hubs, GE module, door latches, trans blew up...) It's been pretty good for the last few months, but I'm tired of it. I'm looking at a 2001 Ranger "edge" 4X4, ext. cab (4 door, I think) 4.0L Auto. Is there anything I need to know about this truck? Does it have the new 4X4 system (hubs locked all the time)? Anything I need to look for before I buy it? It has 67k miles on it. Were all of these 4 doors? Thanks.

I think Ford stopped making 2 door SC by then, It has the new 4wd system, the 4.0 SOHC has the noisy timing chain problem around that time.
