Question:

Go to the Kelly Blue Book web site. They have used car values. In my opinion, the price is way to high. Go out and price some new 97’s leftovers and you will see what I mean.

I got a 96 Eddie Bauer V8 AWD Explorer with sunroof, towing package, trip computer, CD changer and leather seats with 11,000 miles for $24,000.  This was a perfect vehicle with absoultely no scratches, marks, stains, never wrecked, or anything.  I bought it from an indivdual about three months ago.   A dealer wanted $28,000 for the same vehicle with about 30,000 miles.– Rex Graves Notice:  My return address has been modified, guess why             remove the "SPAMSUCKS."!

Susan, I am leasing a 96 XLT with the same features you have listed plus the JBL sound.  My buy out in June ‘98 with 24K miles is $22K. Ken
