I have too many vehicles!  You are looking at a 2002 Ford Explorer that I have invested roughly $4000 fixing up only to decide we wanted a different car before I got it back from the shop...  So here we go:   The transmission and rearend have almost 0 miles on the rebuild (I only drove it home from the shop).  The transmission and transfer case shift smooth.  The rear wheel bearings were replaced at that time as well.  All work was done by an ASE certified technician.  Rear Tires have about 90% tread life left and front tires have less than 100 miles on them.  I put a new battery in it last month.  Motor is solid.  I have no concerns with the drivetrain on this vehicle.  I would have no reservations about taking off cross country in it today!

The exterior of this vehicle is in pretty good shape for its age and for having 118,460 miles on it.  However, The plastic on the bumper is popped loose on the left rear but is barely noticeable and an easy fix (see picture).  There is a minor nickel-sized door ding on the right rear door.  There are some minor rock chips and blemishes as u would expect on a vehicle of this age.  But as I said, it's in pretty good shape. 

The seats are all leather.  The driver's seat shows considerable wear but is comfy.  The passenger seat is also showing wear but not as bad as the driver's seat (see pictures).  The rear seats are in excellent shape.  There was a sizeable stain on the carpet in the hatch when I took the pictures but my wife put some elbow grease into it and was able to get it out.  Also, the left rear power window is not working and the compass only works part of the time. 

The heat and air conditioner work great!

I have two keys and two fobs.  The keypad on the door functions properly.

I am not a dealer!  This is the car my wife and I drove everyday and I truly believe this is a good, reliable vehicle.  Please feel free to drive this vehicle before you bid.  If you have any questions I should be able to answer them for you.

Serious bidders only please!  I have already sold this vehicle once but the winning bidder did not pay.  I think he had a legitimate excuse but it creates a real headache when that happens.

Thanks for looking, Happy bidding, and good luck

Ford Explorer is America's new favorite police car

Mon, 24 Mar 2014

There is a new vehicle that you should keep an eye out for when you're going a little too fast down the Interstate. Ford's Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility was the bestselling new law enforcement model in the country last year, and signs show that won't be changing anytime soon.
Ford sold 14,086 Interceptor Utilities in 2013, up 140% from the year before, and 10,897 Interceptor Sedans, up 31%, according to USA Today. Overall, the brand's police sales were up 48 percent, and they were enough to boost the company's law enforcement vehicle market share by 9 points to nearly 50 percent.
The success comes just a few years after it made the decision to finally retire the long-serving Crown Victoria-based cruiser for two more modern vehicles. "We had to reinvent the category," said Chris Terry of Ford Communications to Autoblog. The automaker had to convince police departments that a unibody chassis without a V8 could perform better than a model that had been a law enforcement staple for years.

Ford looks back on 50 years of the Mustang in Detroit

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

Ford has something special sitting in its booth here at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show. In fact, it brought two special somethings in the form of the Ford Mustang 1 Concept that first saw the light of day in 1962 and the very first production Mustang that rolled off the production line in 1964.
These classic creations are sharing floor space with the brand-new 2014 Mustang in honor of the pony car's 50th Anniversary. Since Ford's latest 'Stang already made its auto show debut (at a number of locations, including Los Angeles), we think it's pretty cool that the Blue Oval did something special for its home-town show.
Check out both the Mustang 1 Concept and first production 1964.5 Mustang above and below.
