Found a good deal on a well preserved 1999 XLT with the 4.6L V8.
Had about 80,000 miles on it when it was delivered.
Everything, save for the tires, is factory stock and most of the doodads work. Found a few minor issues like electric side mirrors refusing to tilt down and right, sometimes the odometer blanks out, and the parking brake indicator sometimes doesn't light up.
Shifts smooth. Awd, 4H, and 4L works well. The cruise control works. Appears to be mechanically sound. Fuel consumption well within declared values.
Previous owner took good care of it and used only factory spec fluids and parts.
It's very comfortable and the heft gives a sense of safety and security.
Looking forward to learning as much as I can about it and keeping it in tip top shape.
