I haven't posted or asked anything here in years but you guys have always came through for me. Anyway my wife is looking at a new 2004 XLT 4x4 4.0L. How is the overall reliabiltiy of the newer Explorers compared to the older ones? My '91 XLT 2wd now has 201K miles and is still running strong. Just curious if I can expect this type of reliability out of the newer designs if I give it the same type regular maintenance. I realize this type of question maybe impossible to answer. I did notice the sticker said Engine made in Germany and Transmission made in France. Thanks for the help, Craig
