Excellent condition 2003 Ford Explorer with the somewhat rare Eddie Bauer two-tone leather interior and 4.6L V8 engine. We have owned this car since 2004 and it has been an extremely reliable vehicle. Amazingly, it can get up to 22 MPG on the highway. Regularly maintained, and it really is in excellent condition for a 2003. That being said, there are minor cosmetic things that I will list below, but know that this is an excellent vehicle that I have little doubt will reliably run for another 100,000 miles if not significantly further. Here are some details:
- Eddie Bauer package, with two tone leather seats
- 4 door with rear full door that can also open via the rear window
- Michelin Latitude X-ice snow tire (probably 50% life remaining)
- Power Sun Roof
- New JVC Stereo with CD and AUX inlet
- Luggage Rack
- All Wheel Drive / 4 Wheel Drive, is great in the Colorado Front range winter conditions
- Towing Package with controller
- Air Conditioner
- Heated drivers and passenger seat

Minor cosmetic issues:
- crack in windshield in top left, not visible when driving
- a couple of minor scratches on hood (probably could be waxed or buffed out)
- on plastic bumper under rear left tail light, there is a dent/scrape (probably someone bumped it in the parking lot)
- there are a couple of tiny chips in the paint on the right passengers door
- Driver's seat, low on the right side almost to where the horizontal seat meets the vertical "backrest" the vinyl (leather on top, vinyl/plastic material on the side) is worn and has a few cracks in it.
- Right rear door trim fell off (still have it... about 2 feet, goes above the door handle).
- There might be a couple of other minor blemishes, but in general, the paint is in great shape, and is two-tone green and tan.

I purchased this in 2004 when it was almost new, and it has been a great, dependable car for my daughter who used it for the last 10 years as a student at CSU (undergrad and vet school). She and her husband are moving to Japan this week, and can't take it with them, so I am selling it for her. Please respond to me via e-mail, or feel free to call me if you have any questions. I am not interested in talking to any dealers, period

NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs

Mon, 11 Mar 2013

It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.

2015 Ford Expedition

Mon, 21 Jul 2014

While the tide of bigger-is-better SUVs has been in recession since, well, the recession, fullsize utes are still very much with us. Conservative creatures that have been loathe to evolve, fullsize SUVs nonetheless remain enduringly popular among large families, livery customers, and anyone with lots of friends, relatives, and toys to tug around. With respect to Toyota and Nissan, the only players that really matter in the segment are the new-for-2015 Chevrolet Tahoe/Suburban, the GMC Yukon/Yukon XL, and this truck: the Ford Expedition, the latest evolution of which we just drove for the first time at a press preview in West Virginia.
Unlike the General Motors utilities, the standard Expedition and the long-wheelbase Expedition EL are not all-new, but rather are heavily refreshed versions of the same basic truck Ford started selling way back in 2007. The front fascia is where most of the exterior update happens for 2015, with a new three-bar grille design, halogen projector headlamps, and new bumper design with available LED foglamps. Despite all the new bits, the facelift breaks exactly zero ground in terms of design; in fact, it already looks dated, and will only look older once the macho 2015 F-150 bows later this year. Even less has changed out back, where the tailgate gets a wide chrome band spanning the taillamps and a new chrome exhaust tip. Other exterior changes are generally limited to colors and an all-new wheel lineup that includes a gleaming set of six-spoke 22-inch polished wheels on high-end models.
Speaking of high-end models, a new Platinum trim is positioned above the cowboy-spec King Ranch model for 2015. Both the Platinum and King Ranch get their own color combos and exterior trim finishes (satin metal for the Platinum, chrome everywhere and ginormous badges for the King Ranch) and posh, leather-lined interiors with their own aesthetic. The Expedition family also now includes a price-leading XL model, as well as XLT and Limited grades.
