Who would like a solid 4 wheel drive vehicle, especially in the midst of this winter? I am the original owner (non-smoker), purchased it new, and have driven it as my primary vehicle until recently when I purchased a new SUV.

As the pictures show, it is in great shape. It is an Eddie Bauer model, so it is loaded with amenities.

Issues that I am aware of:

As shown in the pics, it has a cracked front windshield (does not affect NJ Inspection, they no longer check anything beside emissions).
As shown in the pics, it has that typical Explorer crack in the piece right below the rear window near the Ford symbol (once it happened to me, I see it on a lot of Explorers).
Battery is a bit on the weak side, been a rough winter here.
Not an issue, just to make you aware: the transmission was replaced @ 106k miles, has been very smooth with no issue since.

I have all of my service records available, with nearly everything being done at my local dealership. There are no 'service' lights lit on the dash.

Vehicle comes with a clean title, 2 keys & 2 remotes, and a mat to protect the cargo area.

If you need the vehicle shipped to you, please contact me ahead of time. I have no relation with any shipper, that will be up to you to find a company, but I can assist.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Winner must send a non-refundable deposit of $250 within 24 hours of auction end, and full payment within 72 hours (please contact me ahead of time if this will be an issue). Failure of either will cancel your claim to the vehicle and I will either go to the next person on the list or re-list the vehicle (my choice). Cash preferred. If payment is made via bank check, I will not release the vehicle until the check clears the bank. Please understand that some banks will hold other bank's check for up to 2 weeks.

I reserve the right to cancel this listing at any time should it sell locally.

As with any used vehicle, I am not responsible for any repairs needed after the deal is complete. I have been upfront and honest about my description, and will provide all of the service records I have. This vehicle is being sold AS IS, where is with no warranty, expressed written or implied. The seller shall not be responsible for the correct description, authenticity, genuineness, or defects herein, and makes no warranty in connection therewith. No allowance or set aside will be made on account of any incorrectness, imperfection, defect or damage. Any descriptions or representations are for identification purposes only and are not to be construed as a warranty of any type. It is the responsibility of the buyer to have thoroughly inspected the vehicle, and to have satisfied himself or herself as to the condition and value and to bid based upon that judgement solely. The seller shall and will make every reasonable effort to disclose any known defects associated with this vehicle at the buyer's request prior to the close of sale. Seller assumes no responsibility for any repairs regardless of any oral statements about the vehicle.

This woman owns the first Ford Mustang sold in the US

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

As Ford celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Mustang with the unveiling of the all-new sixth-gen design, one Chicago women can lay claim to a piece of Mustang history. According to CBS Chicago, Gail Wise was the first person in the US to buy a Mustang in 1964, and she did so two days before the car was even unveiled to the public.
Wise, then a 22-year-old teacher, went into the Chicago Ford dealership wanting to buy a convertible, and a salesperson ushered her over to car covered by a tarp. That car was a baby blue Mustang convertible, which she still owns today - along with the documentation. After sitting for almost 30 years and undergoing a full restoration, the car now looks to be in original condition. The report says that this $3,400 purchase could be worth anywhere between $100,000 and $250,000. While this worked out well for Mrs. Wise, we wouldn't recommend anyone going into a dark, back room of a dealership hoping to get a jump on the purchase of a 2015 Mustang.

Thu, 25 Jul 2013

It's official: A panel of female automotive writers has chosen the Ford Fiesta 1.0-liter EcoBoost as the Womens World Car of the Year, and it beat tough competition like the Mazda CX-5, Range Rover and Porsche Boxster S for the overall top spot.
The CX-5 and Range Rover won the SUV and Luxury Car categories, respectively, and the Boxster S laid claim to the Sports Car category, beating the runner up Audi RS5 and third place Toyota GT86/Subaru BRZ (or Scion FR-S). The Audi Allroad was named the Family car of the year.
The panel consisted of 18 female automotive writers from around the world tasked with picking the best car in each of eight categories, including top vehicle overall, using criteria that women utilize when shopping for a car. That includes safety, value-for-money, aesthetic appearance, storage space, child-friendliness, ease-of-driving, color, sex appeal and environmental footprint.
