great truck...but i wouldnt take that warranty...go ahead and get extended warranty

 

[aliusa]

thank you for your reply so you mean i should buy a extended warranty from a third party company

 

[GAINMOB]

YES....if anything goes wrong it will pay for itself immediately...someone just posted something similar to that a couple of weeks ago

I bought my 05 over a year ago with 116K and it turned 140k a couple of weeks ago. No major except the spark plugs which is common. I would get the plugs changed asap. other than that, you should be good.

Spark plugs need a change at 100K and can be problematic to remove/replace.

IWE Solenoid may need replacement (4WD only)

You'll want to run through all the fluids too... A lot of used ones have original fuilds.

You're doing the same thing I did 8 months ago. You'll love it.

 

[aliusa]

yes you're right actually i used to have a 2000 suburban and 99 tahoe and i was surprised how is the expedition is more comfy and much quite and i love the powerful acceleration too

I am looking at an 06 with 62,000 miles asking 18,000!

 

[sgtowing]

Seems a bit high in price.

 

[GAINMOB]

yeah should be more like $12k

 

[aliusa]

Mine was $14000 with 87xxx mile and 3000mile or three month warranty

They was asking $15000 but I keep trying take it down little bit and they make it $14000
