Opinions on a 2001 Ford explorer sport 4x4 2door?

Question

I always drive Chevy's & went from a 2005 trailblazer that I wrecked to a 2009 equinox now but I am looking for a winter car with the 4x4 that I'm used to. 
 The one I'm looking at is the Ford 2001 explorer sport edition 2 door, with 4x4, no rust & only 120,000 miles and $1400.00 which seems like a great price & deal to me off a Craig's list seller that seems honest & has a shop doing this buying & selling thing as his business & he said he wouldn't want no bad coming back on him having a shop & all. 
 So does anyone have 1 & like it or had 1 & disliked it or was it a money pit ???
 They also seem to have good reviews on the Kelly Blue Book website it's like 7.5 out of 10
 Thanks

Rust is the big factor, so if it's rust free, that would be a good price. Make sure the transfer case is working right. They had some problems and a rebuilt one would cost more than the truck.
 My Explorer was the most trouble free vehicle I've ever had. $200 in repairs over 10 years and 160,000 miles.
 If the tires need replacing, those and a bunch of other minor things could set you back a grand before you get it in top shape.

You should have it checked by an independent mechanic before purchase but otherwise it sounds like a good deal.  The Explorer is a much better vehicle than your prior Trailblazer.   Good Luck

Exploder Sports are junk.
