Hello,
First post on the forums here.
I've never owned an Explorer. There seem to be quite a few for sale at reasonable prices. I am looking to purchase used as I cannot afford to buy anything remotely pricey.
I am looking at a 94 XLT tomorrow.
85K miles. Needs to have alternator replaced and seller says needs a tail pipe.
It seems to be very low on the miles for a 94. Is it possible to verify the mileage on the vehicle. The pictures he sent me look good. Seller says there is a bit of rust on a bumper and one of the wheel wells...other then that he says it's in very good condition.
He is asking $1300 for said vehicle. It seems like the price is almost too good to me. Am I being naive in thinking this?
Is there anything I should be specifically looking for when I look at this explorer? I am not overly mechanically inclined, but am not clueless when it comes to vehicles.
The low miles are very attractive to me but it almost seems to good to be true.
I'd appreciate any comments or advice that is given concerning my questions or the vehicle in general.
I currently have a 94 jeep cherokee with 217K miles and just about completely rusted out.
Thank you in advance for any help or advice given.
