Up for sale is a 2003 Ford Explorer XLS 4X4 4.0 in excellent mechanical condition.


The Good:
-Very strong engine with absolutely no issues whatsoever.
-4X4 shifts smoothly between high and low gears
-Only 117,200 miles
-Very clean gray interior
-Transmission shifts smoothly with no issues.
-Overall very good looking truck
-Cassette and CD player
-Foldable rear chairs
-Lots of space once you put down the chairs.
-NEAR brand new tires....almost 90% tread left
-Tinted privacy windows

The Bad:
-There is a small hole to the right of the front bumper and a scrape on the rear right fender area....not very noticeable but can definitely see if you look close enough.....maybe a $100-150 repair (See picture in gallery).
-Small crack on rear door....does not leak water or anything...I've noticed other Explorers also have similar crack....not sure how it cracked....from previous owner.
-A few chips on hood paint, BARELY noticeable but wanted to describe everything so that no surprises.

The car RUNS VERY STRONG and is in excellent shape and looks really nice....similar trucks are going for a lot more and are not even 4x4.....CLEAN title with no accident history....asking $6300 or best reasonable offer.

If serious, I can get carfax report at my expense.

PM if interested

Thanks

i think every single explorer ive seen of this model has the cracked plastic on the back hatch

8/29/2011 12:36:39 PM

^I was driving around the other day and saw another explorer with the same crack....design flaw?

8/29/2011 12:46:31 PM

Tune up recently?

Have you already changed the timing belt?

8/29/2011 12:51:40 PM

^I believe it has a chain.

Regular maintenance was performed, oil changes, spark plugs, etc. It runs like a beast!

8/29/2011 1:28:10 PM

yep, its a design flaw. ford wont pay for a replacement either.

When I was shopping for a used one they all had the crack also... There are online movements for a recall, but no action from Ford at this time.

$4,250, assuming the vehicle checks out my inspection

8/29/2011 7:21:05 PM

^I am certain it will pass your inpection, but I cannot accept anything under $5800-5900.

8/29/2011 11:19:41 PM

Price is dropping $100/day. That's not how you keep the low-ballers away

8/30/2011 1:45:00 AM

I know....but this is rock bottom....will not take a penny lower than this.
