Re: $5+/gal gas
I'm interested to see how the online used vehicle valuation sites might adjust. Here's the value for my '08 FEH as of today:
Site 1: $17,845 (Private Party)
Site 2: $16,975 (Trade-in)
Site 3: $17,860 (Private Party)
Current mileage is a little under 67,000 and condition is Clean.

Fair Enough.
Without getting too deep into which model (XLS, XLT, Limited) is closest to my FEH, here's the prices for an '08 Escape I4 XLT with similar options/values:
Site 1: $14,885 (Private Party)
Site 2: $14,600 (Trade-in)
Site 3: $13,581 (Private Party)

When I was searching for my FEH I used two
sites to value a vehicle. They are:
http://www.nadaguides.com/
http://www.kbb.com/
These two sites will never agree on a value
but taking the two of them as a strong
indicator is a good tool. I often found that
a Dealer would price an Escape at Thousands
above the maximum Retail value of a vehicle.
Also if you are looking at a non-FEH Escape
check to make sure you can't get a lower
price, and great deal, on a new one rather
then a resale off a lot.
And always, ALWAYS ( did I say that loud
enough ) run a prospective vehicles VIN
through:
https://www.nicb.org/theft_and_fraud...check/vincheck
before you buy. It was amazing how many
cars I found For Sale that had been
stolen, junked and then retitled.
A Title with the "Brand" Junk means
just that. It ain't worth a dime.

Got my new Explorer and sold my old Explorer last Friday. Averaging 22mpg over 824.4 miles and if I was the only driver I would be above 30mpg. No way in getting my wife to hypermile her new Explorer. At any rate, the new Explorer has been keeping my attention learning new hypermiling techniques. It is one hell of a vehicle so take a look: http://www.cleanmpg.com/photos/showg.../500/ppuser/36
