Got it! 1999 Ford Explorer Sport

[mustangfu]

I got it! It seems like it has pretty much every option available except for leather and it has some sort of premium sport package (?) with a spoiler and everything up top. Also, it's my first vehicle with 4 wheel drive, which I get to enjoy under the 4 inches of slush/ice here in Stafford, VA lol.

Pics!

Nice Sport, don't skin it in the snow ! ! The "spoiler" is actually a wind deflector to help keep the back glass clear/clearer.

Gratz very nice sport

Very nice! Somebody took good care of it from the looks of it. It's the same color on the outside as mine but the interior looks lighter. Enjoy...

Welcome fellow Sport owner

You have purchased a very nice Sport! I wished that my 2000 interior was as nice as yours. Your electric seats appear to have much more lateral support than my manual seats. I may upgrade in the future. The 1995 to 2000 Sport is my favorite two door mid-size SUV body style.

Love my 98 but your interior is way cleaner

I had a '00 Sport almost identical to yours except mine had tan interior (would have preferred grey, but the price was right). I love the Sport (owned. '93, '97 and '00). Went 4 door when I started a family. Moving a car seat in/out of the 2 door sucks!

Nice ride.

The spoiler doesn't work as advertised. I had one on the '00 and have one on my '99 EB. Purely cosmetic at the end of the day.

Thanks guys! I thought it was funny to have a spoiler on top, deflector for the back makes more sense lol. I love it! Only thing wrong so far is the rear windshield wiper doesn't work, though I can hear it try and squirt fluid out when I press the button in.

I'm thinking about getting this next week: http://www.kustomz.com/054098.html
Anyone have experience/complaints about that intake? Just to free up some air and give it an easier time breathing. Is there room underneath for dual exhaust do you think? I'd like the way that looks on this truck.

1999 Ford Explorer 2-door
4 wheel drive
92,900 miles

I paid 4,200. It was on Craigslist and Autotrader, bought it at Jerry's Ford up in Alexandria. The original owner bought it there, serviced it there, and traded it there for an '11 Explorer. Until I bought it, the back seats apparently have never even been sat in. Weatherstripping is great, only blemishes in the paint are on the drivers side (looks like car door parking lot stuff, nothing major).

Very nice! Being an explorer sport owner of two 99's now, I will tell you to watch out for the transmission! Baby it, love it, pamper it. I have a B&M transcooler and oil filter kit on mine. 135k and shifts smooth as a baby's bottom. Also, the IAC valve was a part I had to replace on both. Also, check the switch that operates the brake light. I've had it fail on both trucks

sounds like it was well taken care of.now all you need is a decent snow to go out and have some fun with it
