Firebird to Explorer....

My sister is looking to trade in her Firebird for either an Explorer or Sport Trac.

Please let us know the goods and bads of these machines. What are some things to look for. Also if there are any known problems with either of them. Thanx for the help!!!

One of the things that is good for your sister is that she is trading a GM product for a Ford. Second is it is an SUV, so that is better as well.
