Not to brag but I was successful in selling this vehicle in a single day. I am thinking I wasted my $$ using Autotrader.com and Cars.com as the FREE Craigslist ad did the trick.
I did receive lots of phone calls that were just too late as the truck sold to the first person to look at it in person. I kind of wished I had more paid off cars to sell, dang...

It is time to pass this gem on to someone else
2002 Ford Explorer XLT V8 with 7 passenger 3rd Row seating
I am not a dealer, but I am the original owner of this great family vehicle. Regular Title and never in a accident.
Comparable cars that don't compare. I didn't even bother comparing with Dealer cars, taxes and dealer doc prep will cost you $1000. Why pay it?
2002 2WD 78K on V6 engine no third row seating asking $7900
2001 2WD 94K on V6 engine no third row seating, XLS trim, asking $5990
2002 4WD 67K Leather and Class III hitch upgrades, best comparision, asking $8800
2004 2WD 105K on V6, asking $8995
2003 4WD 74K on V6, asking $12500
2006 4WD 99K on V6, salvage title, asking $7000

Custom Rear Rack is perfect for long trips or just fun outings
had this rear rack custom designed for my Explorer and it is included with the sale. When the rear seats are up large items can be problematic. My examples are bikes, coolers, and oversized luggage. Well the top rack will support those items, but it is not great to drive with stuff on roof as the fuel economy suffers.
The perfect solution is the removeable rear basket rack. I just lock it to the hitch receiver and load it up. It can handle hundreds of pounds and everything is secure and hidden from the wind, while you drive. Note: this is not a cheap $100 rack, this is custom designed to take abuse and has a brand new black powder coated finish.
