YES THIS TRUCK MAY BE A 97 IT MAY HAVE A FEW MILES ON IT BUT IT RUNS VERY STRONG, IT HAS NO NOTEWORTHY RUNNING OR DRIVABILITY ISSUES, IT REALLY RUNS AND DRIVES AS WELL AS ANY 100K MILE EXPLORER I HAVE HAD! MECHANICALLY THIS TRUCK EXCEEDS MY EXPECTATIONS OF HOW WELL I WOULD EXPECT A COMPARABLE VEHICLE TO RUN AND DRIVE! I WILL GET MORE DETAILED IN THE NEXT PARAGRAPH! IT HAS A GREAT CARFAX REPORT SHOWING ONLY 2 OWNERS, THE SECOND ONE HAS HAD IT SINCE 1999, IT SHOWS NO ACCIDENTS AND THIS TRUCK NEVER FAILED A STATE SAFETY INSPECTION, A SIGN OF GREAT MAINTENANCE! THE BODY IS AS CLEAN AS ANY 97 WITH COMPARABLE MILES COULD BE! IT HAS ONE NOTEWORTHY IMPERFECTION RIGHT WHERE THE LOWER ROCKER MEETS THE PASSANGER DOOR, I HAVE INCLUDED A PIC! OTHERWISE IT HAS NO NOTEWORTHY BLEMISHES OR IMPERFECTIONS! THE FRONT BUMPER WAS SPRAYED OVER AND IT WILL HAVE THE MINOR IMPERFECTIONS THAT WOULD ACCOMPANY ANY COMPARABLE CAR! VERY CLEAN ALL IN ALL AND THE ALLOY WHEELS, FACTORY TINT, CHROME ACCENTS, SHARP COLOR, GREAT BODY STYLE AND THE DECENT CONDITION ALL GIVE THIS TRUCK A NICE LOOK! CLEAN, STRAIGHT, SHARP AND SPORTY! ITS A GOOD, DECENT LOOKING, INEXPENSIVE TRUCK! THE INTERIOR IS IN GREAT CONDITION! NOT EVEN ONE NOTEWORTHY IMPERFECTION! NONE! VERY CLEAN AND GREAT CONDITION! AN INTERIOR TELLS ME ALOT ABOUT A CAR AND ITS OWNER AND THIS ONE IS IMPRESSIVE! NO RIPS, TEARS, BURNS, OR HEAVY WEAR! THE OPTIONS INCLUDE POWER WINDOWS, LOCKS, MIRRORS, TILT WHEEL, CRUISE CONTROL, A/C, AM/FM CASSETTE PLAYER, AND MORE! (NO SUNROOF). THE MAJOR OPTIONS ALL SEEM TO WORK WELL, HOWEVER PLEASE EXPECT THE NORMAL TICS YOU WOULD FIND ON ANY COMPARABLE VEHICLE! MECHANICALLY THIS TRUCK HAS NO NOTEWORTHY DEFECTS OR DRIVABILITY ISSUES! IT RUNS AND DRIVES WELL! HOWEVER, PLEASE UNDERSTAND, THIS IS NOT A STATEMENT THAT THIS TRUCK IS 1000% PERFECT IN EVERY ASPECT AND THAT EVERY PART IS BRAND NEW OR THAT YOU WILL NOT HAVE TO SPEND ONE DIME ON THIS TRUCK TO MAKE IT 100% PERFECT! IT IS A 14 YEAR OLD, HIGHER MILEAGE, INEXPENSIVE TRUCK! MY DESCRIPTION MEANS THAT THE MOTOR RUNS STRONG, SMOOTH AND QUIET, THE TRANNY SHIFTS PERFECT, THE 4X4 WORKS WELL, IT HAS NO FLUID OR EXHAUST LEAKS, NO SERVICE LIGHTS ON, AND IT GOES DOWN THE ROAD VERY WELL, FREE OF ANY MAJOR RATTLES, SHAKES OR VIBRATIONS!

IF YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO ABIDE BY OUR PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS, PLEASE DO NOT BID! THANK YOU AND GOOD LUCK! ATTN:WE HAVE JUST OPENED A NEW BUSINESS AND ALONG WITH IT A NEW SITE. HOWEVER WE ARE EXPERIENCED WITH EBAY SALES AND WE PLEADGE TO DO ALL WE CAN IN ORDER TO GIVE YOU ACCURATE, HONEST DESCRIPTIONS, AND ALSO TO MAKE YOUR EXPERIENCE AS TROUBLE FREE AND AS SEAMLESS AS WE CAN! WE UNDERSTAND YOU ARE DEPENDING STRONGLY ON OUR DESCRIPTIONS, THEREFORE WE WILL ALWAYS INCLUDE NOT ONLY THE POSITIVE ASPECTS, BUT ALSO ANY BLEMISHES OR MECHANICAL DEFECTS THAT WE ARE AWARE OF! ALONG WITH US DOING OUR PART, WE ASK YOU ONLY TO HAVE REASONABLE EXPECTATIONS, THAT COINCIDE WITH THE YEAR AND MILEAGE OF THE VEHICLE YOU ARE BUYING! IF YOU ARE BUYING A 10 YEAR OLD CAR WITH 140K MILES, PLEASE EXPECT THE AVERAGE WEAR, BLEMISHES, ETC..., THAT WOULD BE FOUND NORMALLY ON COMPARABLE VEHICLES! WE LIST ANY "NOTEWORTHY" IMPERFECTIONS THAT WE SEE. HOWEVER A NOTEWORTHY IMPERFECTIONS ON A 10 YEAR OLD 140K MILE TRUCK, IS MUCH DIFFERENT THEN A "NOTEWORTHY" IMPERFECTION ON A 2 YEAR OLD 40K MILE TRUCK! THESE VEHICLES WILL ALL BE SOLD IN A NO RESERVE FASHION. THEY WILL SELL HUNDREDS AND SOMETIMES THOUSANDS BELOW THE AVERAGE MARKET PRICE. THE WAY WE INSPECT THESE VEHICLES BEFORE DESCRIBING THEM IS AS FOLLOWS: WE DO A WALK AROUND, VISUAL INSPECTION, LOOKING FOR NOTABLE IMPERFECTIONS, BLEMISHES, FLUID LEAKS, AND ANY OTHER NOTEWORTHY DEFECTS, WHICH IF FOUND WOULD THEN BE DISCLOSED IN OUR DESCRIPTION. MECHANICALLY WE TEST DRIVE THEM FOR A MINIMUM OF 30 MILES AND SOMETIMES UP TO 500 MILES IF WE ARE USING THEM FOR A FEW DAYS. THIS IS THE ONLY MECHANICAL INSPECTION THAT IS DONE! WE BASE OUR MECHANICAL DESCRIPTION ON OUR YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN THE BUSINESS, AND IF WE FEEL ANY NOTEWORTHY DEFECTS THAT WILL AFFECT THE RUNNING, SAFETY, OR THE OVERALL DRIVABILITY! FOR INSTANCE, IF WE HEAR AND EXHAUST LEAK, WE WOULD DISCLOSE IT IN THE AD, IF THE BRAKES HAVE A HEAVY PULSATION, IF I MAJO OPTION SUCH AS A/C OR A POWER WINDOW DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY, WE WOULD DISCLOSE THAT! THAT SAID, IF THE #5 PRE-SET BUTTON ON THE RADIO DOES NOT LIGHT UP AT NIGHT, WE WOULD NOT PROMISE THAT WE WOULD, 1. NOTICE IT, 2 DISCLOSE IT AS A "NOTEWORTHY" MECHANICAL DEFECT! OTHER EXAMPLES WOULD INCLUDE: A POWER MIRROR THAT GOES UP, DOWN, LEFT, BUT NOT RIGHT, A SUNVISOR THAT DOES NOT CLIP IN CORRECTLY, A LIGHTER THAT DOES NOT WORK, ETC, ETC...! SO WE ARE THOROUGH WITH YOUR MOTOR, TRANNY, 4X4, MAJOR OPTIONS, BRAKES, POWER STEERING, SAFETY ISSUES, AND THE GENERAL, OVERALL DRIVABILITY OF THE VEHICLE, WHILE WE MAY MISS, OR NOT FEEL THE NEED TO INCLUDE THINGS AS MINOR AS A RADIO BUTTON! SO WE ASK THAT, REGARDLESS OF THE DESCRIPTION, YOU EXPECT YOUR VEHICLE TO HAVE NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR, AND THAT YOU HAVE REASONABLE EXPECTATIONS, THAT COINCIDE WITH THE YEAR AND MILEAGE OF THE VEHICLE YOU PURCHASE! LAST BUT MOST DEFINETLY NOT LEAST: IF YOU ARE NOT 100% POSITIVE YOU WILL BE ABLE TO COMPLETE THIS TRANSACTION, PLEASE DO NOT BID! IF YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO ABIDE BY OUR PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS, IF YOU HAVE NOT TALKED WITH YOUR SIGNIFIGANT OTHER, IF YOU HAVE NOT CHECKED INTO THE COST OF TRANSPORT, AND SO ON AND SO ON! THIS IS HOW WE FEED OUR FAMILIES, NOT A VIDEO GAME, AND WE ASK THAT YOU RESPECT THAT! THANKS AND GOOD LUCK
