Used 1998 Ford Explorer for Sale

This vehicle is built tough! It is a '98 so it has close to 200k miles on it but it still runs like it's new! It's not the most eco-friendly SUV on the market (by far) but for it's age it goes over bumps like they aren't even there! The interior is still in great condition! Really seems to be "Built FORD Tough" Downside, this car has a lot of slight mechanical errors as I have found, but they are usually inexpensive and quick fixes, usually those you can do yourself. Trust me, if I can do it with my busy schedule as a full time mom and being employed full time, then you know it's easy!

I knew when I bought my Explorer it was going to be a gas guzzler, and it is. Not that bad on the open road. It makes up for it by performing well. I've been driving this car in my business for two years now. We clean foreclosed houses that usually have a lot of debris that has to be hauled away.

I love my Ford Explorer it is such comfortable SUV, the interior is large but driving it is a breeze. There is hardly a blind spot in the car and it rides smoothly even while pulling a pop up camper and an 8 x 10 trailer. I prefer box looking cars and the white color really makes it pop. This was my third car and probably my favorite I only had to take it to the shop once and that was because a hose popped out of place but other than regular oil changes that was it. I love that the body is all metal. I was in a car accident with the car where I was hit in the left rear and my car barely had a dent and the other car which was newer was torn up. It is a metal tank and I love it! The only con of the car is the pretty low gas mileage. We call it the "gas guzzler." It only gets about 15 - 20 MPG which could be better however, I prefer the power and reliability the car has. The car is very easy to handle and I feel safe in it because of the all metal body (As said earlier) and the ease of the drive. It doesn't feel as if you are driving a large truck or SUV. It feels very comfortable and I think anyone could have an Explorer as their first car. It was the only car that would start up during a freak ice storm and I put my complete faith in my Ford.
