#87 of 212 Just bought 05 Eddie Bauer w/$5k rebate! by hondafan5 Jun 12, 2005 (8:17 am)
Just purchased and EB Explorer v6, tow pkg, convenience group, auxiliary air, 3rd row seat and other options for $28,500 in central eastern Florida. Invoice was $28,200 after $5,000 rebate. It is red with tan trim. For $28,500 they threw in a bug deflector with installation. Per edmunds - this is a good deal. The rebate really helped! I did have a 98 eddie bauer also - they have made many improvements since then at almost the same price after the rebate. I'm not crazy about the changes they are making to the '06 so I was motivated to use the rebate and get an '05. Hopefully I will get many years out of the explorer. I did not get the extended warranty - a lot of money. I plan to look into warrantydirect.com - I learned about this from one of the forum postings here on edmunds.   Happy Explorering!

Replying to: hollyw00d (Nov 28, 2004 4:01 pm) I just bought a loaded 2003 Eddie Bauer Explorer in near-mint condition with 24,000 miles for $20,000 even, including extended drivetrain warranty to 2009 and remainder of factory warranty. Northeastern Wisconsin. Leather, 6 CD, dual power heated leather seats, climate control etc. Does not have rear air and no 3rd row seating. Bargain hard and pay no more than Edmunds dealer price. If they won't take it, walk away. This is a buyer's market for SUVs and don't believe any sad tales to the contrary. (This SUV was on the dealer's lot since February and about to go to auction.)   Dealers in my area have dozens of new leftover 2004 Explorer XLT's with cloth, 6CD, towing package and 3rd row seating asking $23,000 (without negotiation).

#90 of 212 2004 Mecury Mountaineer Premier AWD by creepers Jun 30, 2005 (9:27 pm)
Ready to pull the trigger on purchasing a 2004 Mecury Mountaineer Premier AWD for $22800. It has 30xxx miles. The only option it does NOT have is DVD. Think I am getting a good deal. Does anyone have any concerns they can share? Replies to this message: midas72 (Jul 01, 2005 4:16 am) creepers (Jul 01, 2005 8:47 am) midas72 (Jul 01, 2005 9:55 am) rollin59 (Jul 08, 2005 5:00 pm)

Replying to: creepers (Jun 30, 2005 9:27 pm) Creepers, someone might tell you to just spend the extra $6k or so and buy a 2005. Me, I bought a 2003 explorer XLT with 26k miles for $19,800 (right in line with Edmunds certified used price).   I think the miles are a bit high -- are you getting a discount for that?

Replying to: midas72 (Jul 01, 2005 4:16 am) If so, it is already in the price. One thing I did not add, which may or may not be assummed, the Mountaineer is a V8 with tow package. Think this is standard for the Premier model.   I do not think I can get a 2005 Premier for 22800 + 6000 = 28800. Premiers list for 38-40K. Please advise....

Replying to: creepers (Jul 01, 2005 8:47 am) My sarcasm came through, I really don't have much to add other than get a discount for the mileage.

Replying to: hondafan5 (Jun 12, 2005 8:17 am) I'm guessing you don't have 4 wheel drive since you're in Florida? Anyway, I just got the 2005 EB V6, 4X4 w/ ultimate conv group, moonroof, reverse sensing system, cargo cover and roof rack for $29 + T,T,L. I was working the phone for about 2 days with 4-5 dealers and on 6/30 the deals really heated up, seems they all want to sell cars for end of month quotas. I had one dealer call me today, not knowing I had got one last night,and told me Ford is coming out with a better program on 7/6, He didn't say what after I told him I already got one........I didn't get the extended warranty either. Since it's black, I may get the paint protectant but I'll have to see how much that is. Incidentally, for those of you still looking, don't forget the dealer holdback when negotiating these cars. I know Edmunds says they include that in their pricing, but I got mine under TMV, by about a grand Replies to this message: chuck1 (Jul 01, 2005 2:28 pm) sphere99 (Jul 06, 2005 11:46 pm) chuck1 (Jul 07, 2005 9:26 am) chuck1 (Oct 13, 2005 6:13 pm)

Replying to: bpwrightwv (Jul 01, 2005 11:06 am) You will want an extended warranty on this vehicle. I got one as well! Replies to this message: sphere99 (Jul 06, 2005 11:46 pm) chuck1 (Jul 07, 2005 9:26 am) chuck1 (Oct 13, 2005 6:13 pm)
