2000+explorers
Looking to buy in the near future,maybe a 2002 explorer 4x4 lease return or something.Wondering what's the best engine to go with etc.Maybe what I should avoid.Also what kind of mpg you should expect.
Had a new '98 F-150 4x4 regular cab short box but had the 4.2L which was too busy,should have got a bigger motor,love the truck,though I don't need one anymore.

Any 5.0L v8 or even the 4.6L Exploder if not a first year run will be the only choice for you, in my opinion, as low as it is of most Ford v6s....like the 4.0L SOHC.
I have heard upwards of or even over 20mpg's on the highway with the v8 as well. As good as the heads on either v8 flow, I can believe those numbers.
