Need opinions on a Ford Employer 1996?

I can pick up the above SUV with 141,000 miles for $700.00. It looks and sounds fine just will need new tires. I've never bought a vehicle with high miles like this and am a little afraid of major repairs down the road. Give me an honest opinion on this SUV
Thanks

If it's got the 4.0L V6, you should be able to get another 100,000 miles out of your employer. Unless it decides that you aren't meeting your production goals, or that you're not getting along well with Donna in Accounting just because she thinks you like Kevin, who she's had her eye on.

In which case, your car will fire you.

700 bucks pretty good bet you'll need twice that to get it road worthy and to get it to pass safety/emissions. also known rust buckets. also on another note this just might not pass one or the other tests to get it on the road. my two cents pass on this

For $700 and it runs, your in pretty good shape

honest opinion ?..........................Don't Expect too much for $ 700......, Don't sob when it fails you. It might last a week, or maybe a year, you never know
