Any interest?

I'm thinking about selling my 92 Explorer...and figured I'd check with the local crew before I tossed it to the wolves in the classifieds. It's got leather seats, the stereo is one of the factory AMPed stereos, only it has no sound.
Power everything...locks, windows, seats, steering, tilt wheel, cruise, center console, includes an extension that extends it to under the dash. Push button 4WD works. moon roof (sunroof?) privacy glass.
THE BAD: the heater switch runs on high...or not at all. The power driver's seat doesn't go forward or backward. There is something in the idle circuit that is funky. It won't always idle right, and will stall occasionally. It's got a problem with the front end, also. I think it's either a tire out of balance, or it's out of alignment. I've just got too many vehicles... Is $1000 too much to ask? Or would it be better to go $900 or B/O? I've had it for just about a year, and it never failed to start for me. OK, thanks for looking....
Rick

I knew I'd forget something...it's got the 4.0 V-6 with the overdrive transmission and the pushbutton transfer case. It's got just over 206,000 miles on it, and like I said, it's never failed to start, even in the cold. The body is fair...it's got the usual rust on the rockers, and the previous owner's son hit something with it and took out the corner marker reflector on the passenger side. The passenger door needs something.(bushings? pins?) as it sags when it's opened. It latches tight, it just doesn't close real well. I use it as my daily driver going back and forth to work, so that door seldom gets opened, anyway. I'm supposed to be picking up a set of four used Goodyear tires that I was going to put on it, to see if the front end problem is tires or alignment. They will go with it. (225-75-R15 Goodyear RTS tires with about 60% tread) Let me know if you'd like to check it out, and I'll try to arrange a time for you.
