Stay away from the 4.0.

Doesn't really make much difference with the 4.2s, latest and fewest miles, best condition, best prices, etc...

Anything after 2003 when the 4.2 facelift was introduced.

The newer, the better....

The more service records available, the better....

Good luck....

What the above have said, also its a great idea to have a 1-2k cash reserve handy for unexpected repairs, they will happen.
