This is a 1998 Ford Explorer. This car is not perfect, but it is in Excellent condition for it's age and mileage. This Car has some quirks, and I will try to list them in a separate paragraph below.
As you can see from the looks this car has been very well taken care of. The body is in Excellent condition for it's age, as well as the wheels and tires. The wheels have been kept clean for 200,000 miles and have no pitting in the aluminium. The doors are solid, the rear fenders are clean , inside and out. Most Ford explorers rot from inside the fenders from water that gets in from the wheels. I have preserved these fenders, and have included pictures of them from inside the hatch with the panels removed. The engine runs, and starts good. There are no leaks of any kind. The engine oil stays so clean that it is hard to read the dipstick even after all the miles. I am selling this car, because my registration runs out in February, and I am not interested in renewing it for another 2 years. I am listing this as a NO RESERVE auction with a very low starting bid. I am doing this because I know this car will bring what it is worth. I am selling it AS-IS. It is a good reliable 200,000 + miles vehicle.
Here are some of the quirks, The timing chain is noisy. The antilock brakes pulsate when the vehicle comes to a stop. There is some rust on the rocker panels. There is also some clearcoat fade on the hood. The check engine light comes and goes because of a failing catalytic converter. The converter also rattles because something has come loose inside. I Have had this problem for the past 6 years and have been able to get the car inspected by disconnecting and reconnecting the battery and taking it for a 50 mile drive before the inspection.
This car is currently on the road, I wouldn't be afraid to drive this anywhere.
NO SHIPPING AVAILABLE, Buyer is responsible for shipping arrangements. If you need help arranging pickup , delivery of shipping, Please contact me before bidding, and I will see what I can do to help. Thanks for looking.

Ford reserving 50th Anniversary Mustangs for service members
Tue, Dec 16 2014Think getting your hands on one of the 1,964 50th Anniversary Ford Mustangs is hard as a civilian? Imagine how tough it might be for the Mustang fanatics in our nation's military. Perhaps recognizing this fact, Ford Emerging Market Services and the Overseas Military Sales Corporation (the only Ford-authorized retailer on the military's bases) ran a raffle, with the winners receiving the opportunity to purchase one of the limited-edition muscle cars. Ford EMS and OMS received 300 entries to the raffle, although with only eight 50th Anniversary Stangs to hand out, we imagine there were quite a lot of disappointed soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines. "We are pleased to offer limited-edition anniversary Mustangs to members of our military through our Military Appreciation Program, and we are delighted at the response it's receiving," Doug Walczak, EMS' fleet sales manager, said. The first Mustang was delivered to Army Maj. Del Boyer, shown above. While Maj. Boyer took delivery in New York, the raffle was open to servicemembers both at home and abroad.
Chip Ganassi Racing switches to the Ford EcoBoost-powered Riley Daytona Prototype
Wed, 06 Nov 2013Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates (CGRFS) announced yesterday at Ford's SEMA press conference that it will field a Ford-Riley Daytona Prototype with the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 in the 2014 United SportsCar Championship (USCC). CGRFS is the second team to commit to the new Ford-Riley car, behind Michael Shank Racing (which has already used the racecar to break a 26-year-old top-speed record at Daytona International Speedway).
"Over the last 10 seasons we have been able to experience a great deal of success in Grand-Am," Chip Ganassi says, "and now with the dawn of the new United SportsCar Championship we feel that Ford power will be a key ingredient to writing the next chapter of our sports car program."
In the last Grand-Am season, CGRFS raced a BMW-Riley Daytona Prototype. The team has won seven Daytona Prototype championships, all in the past ten years. Scott Pruett and Memo Rojas return as the team's prototype co-drivers, and will attend their maiden race in the Ford-Riley at the Rolex 24 at Daytona in January.
