I initially bought this because my knee couldn't take any more of a clutch. I drive it now to keep it going. No longer need it. I have the title. It is clean and clear. I have added several new parts including blend door motor, front and rear rotors and ceramic pads, new motor craft plugs, cold air intake, agm battery, flowmaster, and hankook dynapro tires. There are a couple small issues I will address. The door ajar light stays on while driving. The dome lights stay on for about 10 minutes after you turn the engine off. When driving, the lights go off after 1-2 minutes. I just took the bulbs out of dome lights. The actual blend door is broken, which makes air come out to defrost, floor, vents, etc. I wasn't too concerned, but may try to fix that. 1 small tear in side of drivers seat. Has small nicks and dents on exterior from where people don't know how to open their doors correctly. It had vent visors that attached to the outside of Windows and I replaced with in channel visors. There is still tape from old visors on the exterior. I plan on cleaning it as soon as it gets above freezing and will take more pictures. It rides and sounds great. Does awesome in the snow. Has the option of 4 wheel hi or low or automatic. I put it in High and low once a week to keep the solenoid active. I average about 15-16 mpg around town and closer to 20 on highway. I have always been a ford guy and take care of my vehicles. If you buy this, the only things you should have to do is put gas in it and change the oil. Keeping the tires rotated is important as this is awd and if you need 1 or 2 tires, you have to buy 4, otherwise it will not drive well. Tire shop technician told me a difference in the diameter of 3/32 will cause it to act up. I've driven this from the beach to the mountains and is currently my daily driver. Has the DVD system from the factory and everything works as it should. It does not have third row.here are the values I found from nada and kbb not that they really matter these days. Nada has rough trade in at 2500, average trade in at 3250, and clean trade in at 3850. Retail value from a dealer is 6050. KBB says 2400-3200 for trade in and private party value in fair condition is 3870 and good condition at 4200. Being that it is 13 years old, I would say good. It doesn't leak or burn any fluids. Has a few dings and scratches. Paint on roof is missing in the run off channels. Deposit of $500 due in 48 hours of auction end and remainder due by time of pick up. I can possibly help with delivery depending on location. I think I can get it transported up to 200 miles one way for free, but don't hold me to that.
