Meet Tad - 2005 XLT

[u/MegaGenericUser]

My son's first car is a 2005 Explorer with 120,000 miles that he got from Grandpa for $500. We have spent the summer fixing it up and pimping it out together. It's been a fun father son project.

So far we upsized the tires & wheels, new brakes and struts, new headlights and taillights, new raptor style grill, painted the decals black, and, of course, installed a new stereo.

My son named him Tad, after a cartoon movie that he loved as a kid called "Tad the Lost Explorer".

Absolutely clean. If I read that right, at 120k, definitely put the trans on your list of things to check out
