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.

RTR Spec 5 Concept shows off 2015 Ford Mustang's drifty potential
Wed, 05 Nov 2014Meet the Ford Mustang RTR Spec 5 Concept, a fully functional drift car that, according to our team in Sin City, has been doling out demo drifts in front of the Las Vegas Convention Center.
Destined to be the flagship of RTR's Tactical Performance Line, the Spec 5 Concept is, in addition to its 5.0-liter Aluminator V8 engine, chock full of performance parts that you can buy for your very own 2015 Mustang. In addition to the Ford Racing engine, the OEM parts supplier has lent the Spec 5 an aluminum radiator and a close-ratio six-speed transmission.
ASD Motorsports provided the front lower control arms, while the car itself rides on a fully customized coilover suspension. Magnaflow and American Racing have provided the exhaust system and headers, respectively. 20-inch HRE wheels, designed for RTR, are wrapped in sticky Nitto rubber.
Google's new Android Autos OS unveiled, will be in cars this year [w/video]
Wed, 25 Jun 2014Connected cars are coming en-masse. We know this much. How, though, remains something of an open question, especially as two of the world's largest tech companies are preparing to battle for control of your car's dashboard. On the one hand, we have Apple and its CarPlay system. And now, we know what Google has been working on with Auto Link.
Its new name is Android Auto, and yes, it's based off the Android architecture that is the primary challenger to Apple's iOS mobile operating system. Announced at Google's I/O conference today, Android Auto functions similarly to CarPlay - owners will need to plug their smartphones into their cars to access the full breadth of capability.
In Android Auto's case, that means a wealth of voice controls to limit distracted driving. Google's marquee apps will be available when the interface arrives in production models later this year, including Google Play Music, Google Maps and voice-activated texting and text playback. Meanwhile, developers will be able to begin designing custom apps for the new system via an upcoming software development kit.
Mustang pinball game will feature art by Ford GT designer
Fri, 13 Dec 2013To celebrate 50 years of Mustang, Ford and Stern Pinball are collaborating on a new pinball machine that will feature the muscle car in all its glory, Polygon reports. Even better, Camilo Pardo, the guy who designed the Ford GT, will provide art for the table; Tanner Foust, Top Gear USA host and professional driver, will handle narrating duties; and a Sony Music soundtrack spanning five decades will provide the tunes.
"The Mustang is one of the most iconic, American cars ever made... What better way to celebrate 50 years of Mustang than with the launch of the Ford Mustang pinball game?" says Stern Pinball CEO Gary Stern.
Watch the promotional trailer for the upcoming Mustang pinball machine below, which will have to hold you over until pricing and availability are announced in early 2014.
