[QUOTE="598, post: 15695262, member: 71706"] I have an 03 with 171xxx miles on it. No real problems other than expected maintenance. Just did front half shafts in the driveway(pretty cheap parts) and the front wheel bearings twice now, again pretty cheap and not that hard. I have owned it since new, changed oil( synthetic Walmart and a motorcraft filter) at 5k intervals, dumped all the fluids at 100k and again at 150k. That said, the timing chains are starting to rattle at start up, and the trans fluid had a little scent at the 150k change. I was about 1300 miles away from home on a business trip a few months ago, when it dawned on me that if the explorer had any major issue, like a chain issue, trans or transfer case, etc., it would be staying where it was and I would find a new way home. I have owned it since new, but it is definitely not a candidate for any big money expenditures. [/QUOTE]
