1992 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer Edition, sitting for years.  Kudos to the owner, he at least keeps the tires aired up.

The lawn seems to be cared for so I'm somewhat surprised the owner would keep this eye sore on the property. Feel bad for the neighbors. I would bet the farm that this Explorer will eventually end up at the scrap yard. Pete, keep them coming.

Man, that Explorer has been ridden hard and put up wet! Was a nice piece of automotive iron back in its day. Shame to see it so messed up. Maybe this is its year!

I bought a 92 Eddie Bauer Explorer in red and loved it. This one has obviously been run hard and put up wet too many times and appears to be only a parts car. I've seen front brake dust before but nothing like this. Thanks Pete for a fun post.

I must say Pete....  you post some of the MOST sun-burnt-vehicles  I've ever seen; and I've been out west, down south, and on the west coast.    "Your cars"  are fried!  😬 😳 😬 😳 😬
