Well-equipped 2002 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer 4x4 with the desirable 4.6L V8, automatic transmission, third-row seating and factory towing package.
This has been a two-owner family vehicle since new. It was originally purchased by my father in 2002 and transferred to me in 2021. It has a clean title, no reported accidents, recently passed smog, and an unusually extensive documented service history. The CARFAX shows 66 service records and long-term California ownership.
This Explorer was heavily optioned from the factory and originally stickered for more than $38,000.
