I'm seriously considering buying a 2004 Endeavor XLS. It has 83,000 miles on it. Just curious how reliable these are, how long can I expect it to last with routine maintenance, if it really has to have premium gas, and just any other facts/opinions anyone can give me on it.

 

I bought one almost a year ago but with 46,000 miles. We put about 9k on it since and no issues at all. Yes..it needs premium fuel.

Other than that..zero issues at all.

 

My wife drives an 04. We bought it exactly one year ago with 38k miles. So far its been running strong with no issues (well except the anti lock brake light). Besides that so far so good.
