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.

Ford Everest Concept shows China also has an affinity for big trucks
Mon, 21 Apr 2014The Ford Everest Concept SUV at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show shows the future of the Blue Oval's truck line in China. While a concept for now, we're told that JMC, Ford's Chinese joint-venture partner, will build a production version sometime in the near future.
With design from Ford's Asia Pacific design team, the handsome seven-passenger SUV shows off some very muscular styling with wraparound headlights that hook into the contours of the angular trapezoidal grille. The beltline rises up the body in the rear and makes the back appear higher than the front. The rear is made from hard, chiseled contours that give the truck a very tough look. The Everest looks ready for some rough roads.
Ford is keeping the interior and mechanical details about the Everest a secret for now, but the SUV is rumored to share some components with the overseas Ranger pickup. The company has no plans to sell the truck in North America. Scroll down to read the official announcement, including the few details on its production.
Deep discounts — $12K, $13K, $16K — are fueling a pickup price war
Mon, Jun 4 2018Heavy discounts of up to $16,000 per vehicle are fueling a "truck war" among full-size pickups sold in the United States by the Detroit Three, a Reuters analysis shows. Strong U.S. sales this year of the highly profitable big trucks have helped offset lagging passenger car sales. But it is not clear how much of the truck demand is linked directly to ample factory incentives and dealer discounts, or how far sales might decline without those subsidies. A Reuters survey of Ford, General Motors Co's Chevrolet and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles's Ram truck dealers across the United States indicates stores are offering deep discounts the country's bestselling full-size pickup trucks. "The walls are not crashing down on full-size trucks," said Sam Fiorani, vice president of global vehicle forecasting at AutoForecast Solutions in Chester Springs, Pennsylvania. Detroit-based automakers want to keep cranking out their high-margin trucks, he added, and "giving up a little of the profit is the cheapest way to do it." Stores are offering discounts of up to $12,000 on the 2018 Ford F-150, which remains the best-selling vehicle in the country, recording more than 80,000 sales in May. Discounts run up to $13,000 on the 2018 Chevrolet Silverado and as high as $16,000 on the Ram 1500. Average transaction prices for full-size pick-ups range from around $42,000 to $45,000, industry analysts and automakers say. All three companies are spending furiously - GM and Fiat Chrysler to help sell off carryover 2018 trucks to prepare for redesigned 2019 models, and Ford to sustain its long-held sales crown. A supplier fire that temporarily shut down production of the F-150 last month "changed the game," said Jeff Schuster, senior vice president of forecasting at LMC Automotive in Troy, Michigan said. The supply halt nudged Ford's crosstown rivals "to ratchet up incentives on the current models to go after weakness at Ford," he said. Deals advertised on the companies' official websites range from rebates and low-interest loans to ultra-cheap lease rates, but they are not telling the whole story. Ford, for instance, advertises a $2,000 rebate and a $500 financing credit on sales of certain F-150 models. But James Collins Ford in Louisville, Kentucky, is offering discounts of up to $12,215 on the 2018 F-150 XLT SuperCrew 4x4. The price cuts are even steeper at a number of GM and Fiat Chrysler dealers. Quirk Chevrolet is selling the 2018 Silverado 1500 Double Cab at $13,000 off sticker.
