Ball joints needed to be replaced about 170,000 miles.
This vehicle is a workhorse. It has a small V8 pushrod engine so the performance is not as exciting as the newer style overhead cam engines... but the thing just keeps running.
Runs better now than it did when I bought it new.
Regular maintenance has resulted in a very reliable vehicle. I wouldn't hesitate to take it cross country right now.
Driver seat is a bit ragged given the 10 years in service. Could get it restuffed for about $150.
Not the best on gas (15 around town) but the engine is powerful enough so you don't have to lean on the pedal.
Expeditions came out in 1997... I think you are referring to a four door version of the bronco (YES THERE IS SUCH A THING! IT WAS A VERY COSTLY HARD TO GET OPTION)
I Just found a 1996 Expedition XLT with 179,000 miles so they are out there.
Just so you know I worked at a Ford Dealer when the 96 Expeditions came out. so to confirm the above comment they do exist. I will say this though it was great to be able to see the Bronco and the Expedition side by side.
