Hi, I'm a New Member. I purchased a 1995 Eddie Bauer with 275,000 miles on it for $1.00(yes, one dollar, from a friend) in March '08 . Have put $600.00 (tires, windshield repair, and exhaust repairs to pass MD inspection) into it and driven it about 5,000 miles, including towing a 3,000 lb boat and trailer for 800 miles through the hills of eastern PA and upstate NY. Gas mileage 18 MPG while towing! Never been a Ford user until now. Great vehicle. A few irritating issues with a/c and electrical system, but that's about it.
