Get an extended warranty - may cost you 3 to 4000 but worth every penny
I have an Explorer - replaced 2 Turbos - $12000 - had to wait 7 months during Covid - lucky i had a 2nd vehicle
Just recently - water pump - should be 5 - 600 bucks right - nope - $4000 at the dealer - secondary shop - $2500
Now just replace catalytic converter - $700 and now the engine light is on
Starting to be a nightmare....
I have the same boat = except it is a 99 Tracker Targa 1900 - it is phenomenal - i have owned it for 16 yrs
Will do almost 50mph with full load - you will really enjoy
Get yourself a power polisher - some high end polish and something to remove the old grime etc and it will be fine
If you have questions email me
