You are looking at a very nice pre owned Ford Explorer Limited. We are the second owners and the vehicle was purchased as a certified Pre Owned vehicle from Ford. The vehicle is cover under Ford's ESP Premium Care Warranty which is the top of the line Ford warranty until 100,000. See Ford's website for details. There is a $75 warranty transfer fee for the new buyer.

The vehicle is in overall great condition with only minor signs of wear and no major wear inside or out. It is in above average condition for a 2011 with 60,000 miles. Everything works as it should and it gets great gas mileage (between 20-24 MPG). We are only selling because our daughter is getting bigger and we no longer need an SUV.

All Explorer Limited models come loaded but this one has the extra Rapid Spec 302a option package which adds to the huge list of features this vehicle has. This includes:

Rapid Spec 301A – Voice-activated Navigation System with SD card for map and POI storage, and integrated Sirius Traffic and Sirius Travel Link with introductory 6-month subscription + power liftgate + Luxury Seating Package includes PowerFold® 3rd-row seat, perforated leather-trimmed seats, heated and cooled driver and front-passenger seats, and 10-way power front-passenger seat with power lumbar Rapid Spec 302A – Includes all content of Rapid Spec 301A

+ active park assist + adaptive cruise control and collision warning with brake support + rain-sensing wipers + BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System) with cross-traffic alert + HID headlamps

This Explorer also includes the optional rear bucket seats with center console and the dual panel Panoramic moonroof.

This vehicle will park itself, let you know if a car is in the lane next to you, keep a set distance while using cruise control, allow you to change the colors of the interior lights, remote start that will sense the temperature and automatically turn on the AC or Heater including the A/C seats or Heated seats and much more. It's really incredible the amount of cool features this Explorer has. It also has bluetooth, home link, 2 USB inputs, backup camera with sensors, HID headlights, fog lights dual power seats, and power folding 3rd row seats that fold flat for more cargo space.

The only aftermarket item is a K&N air filter which I add to all my vehicles because it improves performance and you never have to buy another Air Filter.

The interior is 9 out of 10 if not better. There are scratches in the hatch area from cargo but everything else is great. The exterior has a few scratches on the back bumper from loading and unloading stuff and there are the usual rock chips on the hood and front bumper but less than normal.

There are no stains, rips, or tears in the interior and no rock cracks in windshield. Please feel free to call me with any questions you may have about the vehicle or to set up a time to look at it and drive it. The mileage will change since my wife is still driving it daily.

Current KBB Value is $27,882 and NADA is $30,675

Unrestored 1969 Shelby GT500 one of many classic barn finds going to auction

Wed, 19 Mar 2014

We love a good barn find here at Autoblog. We like that there's a palpable excitement and sense of mystery surrounding barn finds. Each case has its own uniqueness to it, and this latest discovery is no different: an unrestored, one-owner 1969 Shelby GT500 with just 8,531 miles on it.
In the case of this particular barn find, many of the typical questions have already been answered. For example, we know who owned it - his name was Larry Brown. He recently passed away, and as he had no wife or children to inherit the estate, the car he purchased at Pennsylvania Ford dealer in May of 1969, will be auctioned off by Ron Gilligan Auctioneers.
The car was fastidiously maintained, having never been driven in the rain. In fact, Brown never even washed it, out of fear of it rusting. According to the auction website, the last time this car saw water was probably when it was detailed ahead of being delivered to Brown. If that doesn't sound like a fanatical sense of maintenance on the part of this GT500's owner, this next part will. The interior has been treated to a similarly painstaking attempt at preservation, with garbage bags covering the seats and two layers of floor mats over the carpets. The result is a car that, aesthetically, is in remarkable shape considering it's spent so long in a barn.

2024 Lincoln Aviator and 2024 Ford Explorer lose hybrid option

Wed, Nov 15 2023

The 2024 Lincoln Aviator will not be available with a plug-in hybrid drivetrain, a spokesman for the brand confirmed. Lincoln dropped the gasoline-electric option to focus on more popular variants of the SUV, and it's making a handful of small changes for the new model year. "Given timing, the 2024 Aviator is a limited production run and as such, we are focusing on our most popular offering," a spokesman told Autoblog via email. While nothing is official yet, unverified reports suggest that the SUV will receive a major round of updates for 2025. In the meantime, the Aviator will enter the 2024 model year with a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 as its only engine option. The six-cylinder makes 400 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque, and it spins the rear wheels via a 10-speed automatic transmission. All-wheel-drive is offered at an extra cost, though keep in mind that Lincoln hasn't published the full list of changes it's making to the model for 2024 yet. Ditching the hybrid system means buyers now have three trims to choose from. Previously named Standard, the entry-level trim is called Premiere for 2024. The mid-range Reserve and the range-topping Black Label carry over. Pricing starts at $53,340 excluding destination. More details about the 2024 Lincoln Aviator should emerge in the coming weeks. Lincoln parent company Ford is axing the Explorer's available hybrid system in the civilian model as well. But the police version of the SUV is only available as a hybrid, and will continue to be. "To meet continued strong demand for the Ford Police Interceptor Utility hybrid and other Ford hybrid vehicles, the 2024-model-year Explorer will only be offered with the fuel-efficient 2.3-liter four-cylinder Ecoboost and the 3.0-liter EcoBoost V6. Those two engines account for the majority of Explorer sales," a spokesperson for the Blue Oval confirmed to Autoblog. There's no word on when or if the hybrid will return for civilian Explorers. Offered through 2023, the Explorer's optional gasoline-electric drivetrain was only available on the top-of-the-line Limited and Platinum variants. And, like the Aviator it's related to, the Explorer is expected to get a round of updates inside and out for the 2025 model year.

Ford will keep Escape and MKC plant open an extra week to meet demand

Thu, Jun 8 2017

Crossovers keep selling like popular pastries, and for Ford, that means it needs to keep production going. The company announced that, rather than the usual two-week shutdown, its Louisville, Ky., assembly plant will be open for one of those weeks. The plant builds the Ford Escape and Lincoln MKC, which Ford reports have had record sales. According to Ford, Escape sales through May are up 3 percent, and MKC sales are up 10 percent compared with last year. In total, the Escape has sold about 130,000 units through May, and the MKC has sold around 11,000. Keeping the Louisville plant open will allow the company to build an additional 8,500 vehicles. Ford stated that all other assembly plants will continue with the two-week shutdown as scheduled.
