1991 Ford Explorer LX review from North America
"Makes a good trail rig, but it doesn't like the city"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Its had a tick since I bought it. won't go away. now its starting to work its way into the lower end of the engine. when I stop the engine goes "thump thump thump thump..." with engine revolutions. the rpm's also bog.
Passenger door handle taken off and replaced with a peice of wood and cloth.
Rusty.
Nothing else.
General comments?
Its the 2 door 4x4 version. tan. ugly cloth interior. gets me where I need to go, but now I'm doubting it because of the knocking.
So far been reliable, nothing really gone wrong.
Ugly as sin, but hey first car it works.
Can't get it stuck for anything.
Would suggest just to own and beat on.
