Well my sister-in-law is getting married in Florida on Thursday. We rented a condo for the week down here, and as usual, I couldn't help but scanning Craigslist for deals. I happened upon am extremely clean, rust free, accident free, one owner Lincoln Navigator with 65,000 miles on it. It's an early nav, but I got a really good deal on it. I would have liked to find an Expedition or Suburban, but it had everything I needed, 7 passenger seating and a tow rating much greater than my wife's Honda Element. If I can find the right trailer, maybe I will only make one trip to Ashtabula this year.

Here is a pic. I looked very close. It was not in Miami, but up north of Tampa. I ran a carfax on it when I was there. Everything checked out just as the seller said. I actually bought the 5 pack of carafe just in case this one was no good.l like to buy stuff and no I don't do payments!Comment

Nice ride!sigpicComment

Thanks Joe! It's rated to pull 7700lbs, so just a little than 5 times more than the Honda. The title is being shipped down and should be here Wednesday. It would be nice if I could get it then, but I may have to wait till Friday to go pick it up.Originally posted by JoeMeg View Postl like to buy stuff and no I don't do payments!Comment

What engine is in those? I ask as my Land Rover Discovery (2.5 td) is rated at 7840lbs. It would be a little sluggish with that weight behind it though. 4500 / 5000lbs is no problem to it, even up quite long steep climbs.Comment

5.4 V8. I don't ever plan on driving it fast. Just as a tow vehicle/family hauler when necessary. My wife still has her little orange honda element, and I have a company car with free gas that I'm not allowed to tow with it. I do carpool to some of the rides, and I bet we still take Marks dodge most of the time as it gets better gas mileage with the diesel.l like to buy stuff and no I don't do payments!Comment

nice ride drew. if it ever happens to blow a plug out (hope not) get ahold of me I just had to buy the kit to fix one in my truck that blew out going down the road. not trying to scare you but it does happen sometimes on these with the kit its actually a fairly easy job.Comment

I have seen a few during my days turning wrenches.... The very first one that came into the garage I learned not to mess with them. I took the bolt out of the coil then when I went to lift the coil up the plug dropped right into the cylinder. Wasn't a good day for me....Originally posted by miller_time View PostComment
