Is this car worth it? ford explorer 1996 xlt 4wd - $800?

for $800 its probably an okay buy, depending on mileage. if its extrmely high, your not going to get much more out of it so i would look at something newer. if its lower mileage and well maintained, go for it. the ford explorer is a great suv, sells very well, and people are always very happy with it.
