I am selling my 2001 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer All Wheel Driver ( AWD )SUV, I am only selling it because I am getting married on September 14th and I am hoping to free up some money for it. I have four other vehicles hence the low miles. This Explorer is fully loaded, it has factory leather seats ( not heated ), sunroof that works as it should, the factory compass and temperature guage works as it should- you can see it in the pictures along with the sunroof. It has an aftermarket Pioneer CD player and it also has a 6 disc cd changer that came with it from the factory in the arm rest, it was working before I put the aftermark CD player in it.
The Exterior: As you can see it has a 4 inch lift that was professionally installed in 2008 it does have a newer set of meaty Hankook tires. The paint and body are in good shape it does have a few typical dents and dings from being driven. However there is NO RUST on the body and the undercarrage is very clean and rust free as well, which you can see in the pics. I have been very meticulous about keeping it clean and waxed. The factory rims have also been treated and cleaned every year and still look sharp. I do have 2 spare tires and rims for the Explorer, you will also note the extras. This Explorer comes with an aftermarket grill guard and top luggage rack also a few additional lights that do work, the ones on the grill work on a switch- the ones on the luggage rack will need to be hooked back up
The Interior: The interior is good shape, showing typical wear for being 12 years old and being used as family vehicle, I have kept it clean and vaccumed, also treated with Armorall, The leather seats are in good shape, however the drivers seat does have a small crack on the upper right hands side which you can see in the pics. This Explorer is also equiped with font and side airbags, dual climate control for the front and back. I also still have the factory cargo shield for the back. It does not have the 3rd row seating.
The motor: Is a 302 5.0L V8, It does have an upgraded K&N Air intake, the oil has been changed as it should. The battery is 2 years old, but does not have any problems. The transmission shifts as it should, the brakes are newer and all work as they should. The exhuast may or may not need to be replaced in the near future, it does have a slight barley noticable noise at low idle, however it does disipate once you put it in drive and take off.
Hopefully I have answered any questions,I have described this vehicle the best I can please keep in mind it is 12 years old, it is in good shape but you are not bidding on a brand new vehicle it has been a very good vehicle for me, very reliable and great in snow and ice, especially in significant accumulations. I have taken my family of four on many long trips with out hesitation and I would still do the same. I live close to Peoria Illinois, and Rock Island and I am about 2 hours south of Chicago. I would be willing to meet winning bidder if it helps with in a reasonable distance from my house, I will accept payments in cash or certified check ( but will need to speak to your bank for exchanging). Feel free to email me with any questions.
Thanks for looking

Is Tesla's next project an F-150 competitor? [w/poll]
Wed, 13 Nov 2013What's the future look like for Tesla after it launches the Model X CUV and possibly a smaller, sub-Model S sedan? Would you believe a pickup truck? Yes, Tesla could be looking to use its EV know-how to take the fight to Ford and the F-150, based on comments made by company founder Elon Musk.
"If you're trying to replace the most gasoline miles driven, you have to look at what people are buying," Musk said during an impromptu Q&A session following a speech at Business Insider's Ignition conference. "[The F-150 is] the best selling car in America. If people are voting that's their car, then that's the car we have to deliver."
And while the idea of electric pickup may sound kind of absurd to some, Musk makes a very valid point - if Tesla's goal is to replace gas miles with electrical miles, it simply can't afford to ignore pickups.
Drive Ford's new Mustang in Need For Speed Rivals
Mon, 16 Dec 2013If waiting for the all-new 2015 Ford Mustang to hit dealerships is just too tall of an order, you'll be happy to hear that there is now an alternative means of getting behind the wheel of America's favorite pony car. The Mustang is making its video game debut in Need For Speed Rivals.
"We worked closely with the development team at EA to provide them with engineering data for the new Mustang, several months before we showed it to the rest of the world," said Ford product licensing manager Mark Bentley. "Computer design models enabled the game developers to create an accurate representation of the new Mustang before it goes on sale."
Players will have access to five unique designs for the Mustang, allowing a degree of individuality beyond solid colors and decals. According to Digital Marketing Manager Andrea Zuehlk of Ford, those designs are drawn from the four most popular designs on the Mustang Customizer, an online, mobile and tablet app that allows the public to design their own custom Mustang. A fifth design, penned by drift racer Vaughn Gittin, Jr., is also available.
Toyota hangs on to title of world's largest automaker for first half of 2013
Fri, 26 Jul 2013General Motors and Ford can have all the success they please, but it doesn't seem like America's two largest manufacturers are going to topple Toyota in the first half of 2013. According to Reuters, Toyota moved 4.91 million vehicles in the first six months of 2013, representing a 1.1-percent drop from the same period in 2012.
GM is on the rise, though, with a four-percent increase in global sales, to 4.85 million. Volkswagen, still sitting in third, saw a 5.5-percent jump to 4.7 million vehicles in the first half of 2013.
If this pace continues for Toyota, it'll finish 2013 in the top sales spot for the second year in a row. The manufacturer fell to third, behind GM and VW, in 2011 after earthquakes and tsunamis ravaged its production capacity.
