A Impuls review

Very happy to enjoy my good older Mercedes obtained

Very happy to enjoy my good older Mercedes obtained from these people. Relatively good on gas, relatively simple car since it still has more mechanical parts than computer on wheels! Also, super nice, good price! Very nice people to deal with. Helpful and down to earth. Highly recommend them!

2003 Ford Explorer Sport XLT review

Awesome 2 door SUV of the rare kind 😉

I love my cult classic 03 Ford explorer. I rarely see them on the road and mine is in excellent condition. At around 50,000 miles mine is a jem and for good reason, I maintain it's quality condition. It's a safe smooth ride and has never had any problems. The 4 wheel drive handles exceptionally well in wet snowy conditions and is easily controlled, literally with the flip of a switch. The hatch back is one of my favorite features and super spacious. So many possibilities and uses with this vehicle and I am extremely happy I own this SUV. If you're lucky enough to find one of your own don't pass the opportunity by to check it out. As long as it has been taken care of with routine services this SUV won't let you down or leave you stranded on the of side the road. Best purchase ever.
