Potential 2006 Explorer Purchase

[Blackexplorer06]

The ESP price is negotiable. Also you can buy them from other dealers who offer discounts. Make sure it covers the transmission.

I just sold my 2006 with 172,000. Yours is just a pup.

Regardless of warranty, you will go through front axle seals, front pinion seal and a radiator in the next two years. Guaranteed...

However, if the tranny is good (may consider a fluid change - not a flush ((too many miles)) from a reputable shop) you're good for at least 50K more miles.

Just bought a 2010 with 52K, looking forward to the next 5 years and 100K.

Best wishes, enjoy your '06

Must be a typo... Who would sell one with 102,000 miles for that cheap... Mine had 107k and was 8000 and some change... Was it rolled 15 times lol

Holy crap, for that price even I would buy it.

Purchased the 2007 Explorer off a friend un seen who just had enough of it costing him a lot of money. I was worried over the coolant leak, but would have been happy to pull the motor and rebuild it, but as it turned out it just needed a thermostat housing.
Body and frame in great condition, wheels are ready to swap out.
Windscreen was cracked, forgot about that, just had it changed.
Price was not a typo,

I bought my Daughter's 2006 with 200k miles because I wanted her in a "tank" from a safety standpoint. But wow the problems.....multiple radiators, thermostat housing, water pump, now blower motor problems......

Have spent about $2500 in repairs in 2 years. Praying the engine and tranny holds out until she gets through college......

VMR on that one is close to 10k Canadian. For that price its worth wrapping it around a tree and having insurance pay you out.
