In a very hypothetical way I'd consider buying the truck if i wanted to off-road on a budget. IRL i wouldn't be doing myself favors buying a 1990 off-roader for DD duty from DA Farmer.

still brought lot of memories. I was in high school when he had it. Did my first car sex, first burnout, first drift (lost traction in rain when quickly pulling out), and offroad a blizzard. If only he had the v8.

Shitty in what way?
Bad MPG
Bad handling
Bad build quality
Bad performance

That is basically every single SUV ever made.

My dad's expedition drove a lot better than that car actually, slightly faster, handles better, the expedition had soft touches that doesn't feel cheap mostly on doors (unlike the trailblazer). I can't really compare his current explorer now since it is essentially a unibody.

But it was still reliable up to 110k miles, that thing took cross country trip once, multiple trips to NY, some teenage abuse when I borrowed it, and nothing really went wrong, except when the engine got tired (makes that typical american tired noises) towards end of ownership

Twas an attempt at humor on my end.

:mahtroy: once opined that the FD was "the RX7 that looks like the C5" on a TOTD trip and :fax: and others were all :triggered: .
