This is a 1999 ford explorer XLT with 173,000 miles. It is what you would expect a vehicle to look like in the northeast. Little bit of Rust, some wear and tear. I will list all that I can here.
1. Engine & Trans are in good running order. No leaks that I have noticed.
2. Radio & CD Player work, along with the speakers
3. Right front door lock, Needs help locking. You will have to push it down. A little lube may help. Unlocks without a problem.
4. Rear Door Hatch Handle, it works but the screws that hold it on snapped off.
5. Right Front lower ball joint squeaks.
6. Newly installed Battery & Altenator
7. Newly Installed stabilzer Links
8. Front & Rear Brakes done in the last Year (Less than 8000 miles)
9. Muffler Replaced in the last 4 months. However there is an exhaust rattle, at the center pipe to the muffler. Only occurs at low idle. Pressing on that point makes it go away, or reving the engine up to 800 rpm make it go away.
10. Interior for the most part is very clean for a vehicle this age. Not perfect by any means. But Better than most. I did smoke in the vehicle,
11. A/C has a slow leak. Refilled in the summer and by fall it lost its charge. Not to sure of the cause.
12. Shipping is on you. You can pick up or arrange for shipping on your own. The vehicle is in Cleveland Ohio
13. You are welcome to have an inspection done at your expense. There are several repair facilitys with in one mile of my home.
14. I listed it as a SOHC, but I really am not to sure what it is other than a 6 cyl.
15. I bought the vehicle in 2003, and it had 42,865 miles on it. From what I remember, There was only one previous owner.
16. Tires will get you through the winter, possibly till next fall. They are a bit noisy. Drives straight. So I believe the alignment is good.
17. Rust/Dings - There are some spots. Some of the door seams, one at the A-pillar, the rear hatch at the bottom seam. Again this is a Teanage car in northeast ohio. Rust happens.
18. Paypal Deposit of $500 required within 48 hours of auction close. Remaining balance within three days. Remaining Balance can come in the form of Cashier Check or Personal Check (Personal Check will have to clear before you can pick up the vehicle) I will not alterter the sale price on the title, so don't ask.
Any questions feel free to reach out to me or if you would like any additional pictures or video.

Ford doubling 1.0L EcoBoost engine production
Fri, 06 Sep 2013Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine hasn't been around that long, but it sounds like the engine is getting to be fairly popular in the automaker's global car lineup. The Detroit News is reporting that Ford has add a second shift that will allow its German engine plant to double daily output from 500 engines to 1,000.
The increased capacity is part of a plan to sell more than 300,000 vehicles a year with this engine in Europe by 2015. Europe is currently the only market where the smallest of the EcoBoost engines is offered (including in the Focus pictured above), but US-spec Fiesta models will be getting this mill for 2014.
Three-cylinder engines are expected to continue to grow in popularity in coming years with the report indicating that global production of these engines will double by 2018 to 9.8 million units. General Motors, BMW and Mitsubishi are all expected to introduce three-cylinder engines in the near term, as well.
Ford ST Octane Academy [w/video]
Wed, 04 Jun 2014
The ST school is about more than just handbrake turns, hot laps, and sliding into parking spaces.
I felt like such a rock star. On my second pass around the UrbanCross course (read: fancy autocross) at the Ford ST Octane Academy, I absolutely nailed the exit, sliding the bright-yellow Focus ST sideways into a box the size of a parking space, all four wheels in line.
Ford nets $5.7B in 2012, $1.6B in fourth quarter
Tue, 29 Jan 2013Ford brought in $5.7 billion in net income during 2012, which is around $307 million less than one year prior. Even so, the automaker closed out 2012 with the highest pre-tax profit for a single quarter in nearly 10 years, earning $1.7 billion in the fourth quarter thanks largely to a higher-than-average truck mix in the US. That's a jump of $577 million over 2011. Likewise, that translated into fourth quarter income of $1.6 billion. All told, Ford set a full-year pre-tax profit record in 2012. But that doesn't necessarily mean everything is rosy in the land of the Blue Oval.
Like every other manufacturer, 2012 saw Ford get hammered in the European Union, where a deep economic recession continues to drive down consumer confidence. The automaker lost more than $700 million in Europe, and saw full revenue of $26.6 billion in 2012. That's a decline of $7.2 billion compared to last yea. Ford says the market for new vehicles in Europe has contracted to 13.5 million units, the lowest number in 17 years. You can read the full press release below for more information.
