Hello all. I'm shopping for a new vehicle and considering a few different sport Trac options. One is an adrenaline and I'm unsure the normal selling price for these special edition models. I've seen on craigslist ads clean examples of adrenaline models ranging from $13k to $25k. Is there a common price for an adrenaline model?
Another is being advertised for $500 and ad states locksmith tried cutting new keys and the programming didn't work so now the comp is fried? Doesn't seem legit to me, and a little searching makes me think someone tried to steal it and the anti theft kicked in. What should I be looking for with this one? Should the dash and aux components still work, just an engine that won't start? Something else or any red flags that would confirm the "computer needs replaced"?
And the other options are just the safe bets, moderate mileage vehicles in the $5-$10k range depending on miles/condition. Are there known issues to look for with the sport Trac? I think the 4.0 V6 is a pretty reliable motor, are the trans or drivelines known to fail anywhere? Body parts or electronics that regularly fail?
Thanks for any help input or leads for more research.
