Winter Warrior: 2000 Explorer Eddie Bauer

Picked up a 2000 Eddie Bauer Explorer AWD 5.0 V8 for winter/whatever else i need it for. We got a ton of snow over here, I tried to drive the g35 with snow tires/wheels in the snow but it was a no go, ended up selling the wheels and tires for more then i got them for

I love this thing so far, great in the snow, do miss the G already though.. The test drive included me taking it into 3 feet of snow and pulling out with no problems lol.

Its fully loaded with dark graphite leather and is in really good shape.

You were not impressed with your car in snow with snow tires?

Well it was pretty good with a little snow, however I live in at the end of a cul de sac which never gets plowed. We had over 2-3 feet of snow piled up and i tried and failed miserably on getting the G out.

JK bro, glad you are enjoying the new ride! Its always good to be practical, although I am sure you miss the G. How much power does this thing put out?

215HP and 288 Ft/lbs of Torque, it uses the same basic 5.0 as the 94-95 mustangs. Ford has always been good to me, I was an avid mustang enthusiast until recently, always reliable.
