4x4?
Is it a 4wd (4x4)? Does it have the 3.0l or the 3.5l? Ask when the timing belt and water pump was done last, and any other items (like spark plugs). When I got mine, I did a full lube on it, changed all the fluids, checked the brake pads/shoes, changed the belts, new air and fuel filters ect. What condition is it in?

Its a 4x4 3.5L. The exterior is in good shape and the interior is nice. Im going to do a test drive maybe Friday. I am planing to do the same by changing the fluids and belts etc. So when does the timing belt and water pump tend to give out?

Some say
Some say 100k miles for the timing belt (OEM), others 60k. I'll check my owner's manual to see if I have the number, but ask when it was done last, as it is very important. I bought my sport not knowing and I will be changing my timing belt and water pump this month (water pump is a good idea since it is buried in the engine). It keeps your engine from becoming a boat anchor if the belt breaks. Take some pics of it too, I think you will like it allot, and I envy you, I wanted a 4wd!!!!
