Well Im doing a h/c/i swap soon but before i do this i need to get another vehicle. Mom gave me her 92 explorer but it has 281k on the engine so its not very dependable. in thinking about a ext cab 4x4 truck or a lincoln LS. Truck will be 97 or newer.

def a lincoln ls...you can pick up a nice used 2000 for around 7 k nowadays..v8 for sure...wait a minute better get the v6 before you end up dumping money into the ls instead of the stang...i had owned an 2000 ls..bought it dirt cheap when i was workin at ford then i sold it within2 weeks and made 3200 on it....sorry couldnt resist the green!!

Great truck if your OK with 8-12 mpg. And watch the tranny they tend to go out at about that mileage, or less.

144025 miles + $11,900 +7 years old + 12mpg= i don't think so...i would get a 4 cyl whatever as long as it was in decent shape and at a good price...that will make a great second car..
