I am the original and only owner of this 2001 Ford Explorer XLT with Leather Seats, Multi-CD changer in the middle console, non-smoker, never been in a wreck, and low miles...80,293 at the time of this listing.   If you were looking around for an affordable four wheel drive vehicle and wanted to save money with a vehicle that had a couple issues to disclose, this is one that will be sold on auction with no reserve so thanks for bidding and good luck. This is a fairly good running and overall nice looking Explorer for its age with four wheel drive that just needs a little mechanical attention. 

Mechanically, the 4.0L six cylinder runs very well with lots of power and no apparent smoke or leaks. This is listed in poor condition since the automatic transmission has a slight hesitation between 1st and 2nd gear but otherwise drives well and it has served our family very well. This could likely be the most expensive repair so please bid accordingly.  The brakes are strong, and no warning lights are illuminated on the dash. The ball joints and rear struts may need to be inspected and replaced.  There is decent amount of tread on all tires, there is cracking on all tires from sitting in the hot Texas sun. 

The interior of the car is fairly healthy with no major rips or tears in the leather seats, the front driver seat is more worn as shown in picture from normal use and there are black marks on the back of the seats.  Clean cargo area and clean and odor-free carpets. The headliner is in tact and tight and the dash is perfect with all the power options and 4WD functioning as they should. There is a crack on the drive side door speaker cover, but speaker still works fine and the cargo area side panels are scuffed up that is hard to tell from pic.  Maintenance done over the past couple years includes: Radiator and Transmission Flushes, Oil Changes, replaced the center console arm rest due to wear, replaced Front Hood Latch, replaced battery, AC was serviced and works great, state inspection is current. No signs of pets and no smell of tobacco so overall it has been pretty well taken care of.

The body of the car is listed in poor condition due to slight fading above rear driver side door, trim on top has been painted black to fix fading issue, but done by professional, all other black trim shows fading, including bumpers and side trim.  There are 3 very small door dings and  about 5 small dings from hail, most you have to look at angle to even see them.  There is overspray over the majority of the car from being too close to fence when being stained and have heard it can be cleaned using Meguiar's Smooth Surface Clay Kit.  Front Wipers work good, rear wiper needs new wiper blade and cigarette lighter is missing.  There is a very small crack in the bottom part of the front windshield smaller than a dime and doesn't obstruct view.  No major dents aside from typical nicks and scratches and no rust as this has been in North Texas since we bought it new.  We would keep this car, but needed to get bigger car for our family. 

I did the best I could to list all known issues, but the car is over 10 years old and may have other defects that aren't known to me, so I encourage you to inspect the car prior to bidding and is being sold AS-IS. Will be happy to answer any questions or schedule a test drive with proof of insurance and valid drivers license.

Winning bidder to make transportation arrangements.  Will work with shipping company of your choice to help transaction go smooth.  I have clear title and will be transferred to wining bidder within 48 hours of confirmed payment.
