    Are doing plugs on the 3v as bad as they say? I know they're prone to breaking and I should have the extraction tool on standby. I've done plugs on a 5.4 2v and 4.6 2v, how much harder is it?

    Personally I'd try my best to keep it under the 100k mark. But that's my .02...

    That's about the range I'm looking for. My wife prefers the front end you have on yours but it seems those are just out of our reach to buy cash. There are a few for sale private party with 60k-80k for around $10000 but I'm not having much luck unloading this jeep, it's a limited market.

    That's what I'm trying to do. I wouldn't be apposed to a little over 100k if the thing is showroom shape like my dad's. He got his with 129k and it's spotless, barely even a swirl in the paint. He's had it almost 3 years without a problem, though he's only put 6000 miles on it ha ha.

    I found another one close by for $11000 with 90k on it, I'm going to take a look at it on my way home from work and maybe take the wife out to see it this weekend. It's nice to have the title to your vehicles, I have all the time in the world, and it's really easy to walk when the dealers low ball a trade.

    I love having the titles to my vehicles. It's so nice. 11k sounds like a decent deal.depending on what it is exactly. Good luck with your search

    Thanks man.

    So there is nothing new out there as of now. I have 2 people interested in the jeep so that's a step in the right direction. We will probably just borrow my dad's expedition until we find one we like. He never drives the thing ha ha.
