- 1999 XLT
I've got an oral contract on a clean '99 XLT with 4.0 liter V6, auto tranny, alloy wheels, and 108,000 odometer miles. The agreed price is $3500.
Our mechanic checked it out and found no problem except for the brake rotor and pads on the right front wheel, which he replaced.
I've never owned a Ford product before. This car is for my daughter to drive in her last year of college. She wanted an Explorer, and it had to be blue! (This one is.)
What do you think of the price?
What kind of problems should I be on the look-out for in a '99 with this kind of mileage? Is there any preventative maintenance I should get done immeditately: for example, changing the transmission fluid? (The PO had the engine oil changed last week.)
