I am considering an explorer. I have a F150 now but it is tight for a family of 4. I am thinking about an explorer but I want one with the 4.6 V8. I pull a 2 place sled trailer and I am wondering if the 4.0 SOHC would be as good as the V8 or should I stick with the V8. What kind fo milage do you guys get with the V8? Also what year is the best to buy for this engine combination. I believe the 4.6 was offered starting in 2002 is this correct? Let me know your thoughts as to what you would buy if you had to do it all over again.
