2005 Ford Escape

Ford Escape (2005)
for sale

Price: US $6,390.00

Description:

For Sale is my wife's 2005 Ford Escape Limited 4 door SUV with All Wheel Drive (AWD). We are only selling because I just bought her a new mini van because we wanted a 7+ passenger vehicle. This SUV has no known major issues at all, it does have a few scrapes and rust spots of which I will point out with pictures but nothing major. This SUV is pretty loaded for its time... it has Limited trim, keyless entry, black leather, AWD, power everything, moon roof, 6 disc CD player, and heated front seats. All the small things such as blinkers/lights, power windows, air/heat, radio/CD player work fine. (the only thing that doesn't work is the rear view window wiper) This is a fantastic winter vehicle, because it has AWD it can go through most anything (I didn't even bother shoveling the snow on my wife's side of the drive way) This vehicle has never been in any major accidents(I will link the auto check at the bottom of this description) It has however been in two minor accidents. The first minor accident was in 2009 when a car rear ended it at fairly low speed denting the rear bumper, (no air bags were deployed) it did get repaired professionally via insurance company. The other accident was more of a scrape in which a car pulled out in front of the vehicle and literally scraped the front license plate right off the front of the SUV. This was not repaired because I didn't' deem the damage to be significant enough to justify it. (picture is linked below in imperfections list) I have always kept up with regular maintenance such as oil changes. In October 2014 I spent nearly $600 to purchase 4 new Hankook tires with a 70, 000 mile tread warranty for this SUV. Earlier this year I had new rear brakes installed with new rotors, pads, and calipers. Mechanically the vehicle is sound and should run great for a very long time, my wife wasn't even driving 6, 000 miles a year and it only has 75, 218 miles on the odometer. It's a solid all around vehicle and I have no doubt it will serve its next owner well for a long time. Thats about all I can think of to say, I will let the pictures and short video I took of this SUV speak for themselves.
I'm asking for Fair Condition Kelly Blue Book Price for this vehicle. $500 deposit via paypal will be due within 24 hours of agreeing to purchase. Please note this will be local pick up only, (Vehicle is located in Akron Ohio about 35 minutes South of Cleveland Ohio) I will only accept cash and we will have to meet at a chase bank with Notary on staff so I can immediately deposit the funds and sign the title over to you all at the same time. I can not offer any payment plans or warranty, vehicle is sold AS-IS. My feedback is perfect so please buy with confidence!
