I keep this Explorer in immaculate condition inside and out and always have it clean with a fresh coat of wax. I had the front windows tinted to 30% and added the Ford rear bumper protector. The Ecoboost motor is an great engine. I have been averaging 18 mpg in city driving and 22+ mpg on highway driving. It has never been raced or taken off-road. I'm going to hate to see it go, but financially I can no longer keep it. There are no door dents or noticeable paint flaws. The tires and brakes have far more than 50% life remaining. There are currently 19,450 miles. I still drive it occasionally, so mileage may go up a little during this listing. I prefer payment by bank wire transfer or cashier's check. The title and vehicle will be released to the buyer once the transaction/funds clear the bank. A $500.00 deposit within 48 hours via Paypal is required. The buyer is responsible for arranging and paying for transportation. Thank you for viewing. I will review/consider all reasonable offers. Please ask any questions. I have 100% eBay Feedback, and I have sold 5 other vehicles on eBay.

Vaughn Gittin Jr. takes his dog for a drift
Tue, 09 Sep 2014
Vaughn Gittin Jr. spends a great deal of his workday going sideways, but he's usually alone in the endeavor. For a guy that is clearly a dog lover, we imagine that can get a bit lonely.
That won't be a problem for Gittin in this latest video, which features the racer hanging out with his good pal Brody (a dog) and everyone's favorite hot hatch, the Ford Fiesta ST.
Ford to pay $17.35 million over Escape recall
Thu, 01 Aug 2013Ford had a bit of a recall spree around this time last year, with a pair of issues on the then-new 2013 Escape, followed by a recall of 423,000 2001 to 2004 Escapes because they might accelerate of their own accord. Accordingly, Uncle Sam pasted Ford with a $17.35 million fine because it took too long to inform customers, according to a report from Automotive News.
Ford agreed to settle with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, accepting the fine but not admitting fault. The recall, which afflicted Escapes with the 3.0-liter V-6 along with 217,000 Mazda Tributes from 2001 to 2006 and 2008, was due to faulty gas pedals that could stay down after a driver removed their foot.
Ford issued a statement regarding the fine, saying, "We take the safety of our customers seriously and continuously evaluate our processes for improvements. While we are confident in our current processes for quickly identifying and addressing potential vehicle issues, Ford agreed to this settlement to avoid a lengthy dispute with the government."
