What do water/flood 2017 FORD EXPLORER models sell for?

Across 14 recorded sales of the 2017 FORD EXPLORER with water/flood damage, the median was $4,250, from $3,100 to $6,800. That is 6% above the $4,000 median for the model across every damage type, over the last 36 months. Estimates from past sales, not a valuation.

What does a salvage title mean for this FORD EXPLORER?

This 2017 FORD EXPLORER was sold on a salvage title. A salvage title means an insurer declared the vehicle a total loss. Repairing it and passing a state inspection can convert it to a rebuilt title, which stays on the record permanently and affects resale value.

How far is this FORD EXPLORER from an export port?

The lot sat at COPART in NY - BROOKHAVEN. The nearest major vehicle export port is Newark, roughly 160 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $200-$300, which is a real part of the landed cost and one reason identical cars fetch different bids depending on where they sit. Rates are indicative market figures rather than quotes, and rise with fuel prices and in winter.

Is 105,662 miles high for a 2017 FORD EXPLORER?

Comparable 2017 FORD EXPLORER listings at auction averaged 111,746 miles across 4269 sales, so at 105,662 miles this one sits 5% below that. At salvage auctions mileage moves the price far less than damage does — a low-mileage car with structural damage will still sell under a higher-mileage clean one.

What does "ENHANCED" mean on this listing?

ENHANCED is the auction's own condition note for this 2017 FORD EXPLORER. It marks a lot the auction has given extra listing prominence, not a statement about condition. Anything beyond that has to come from the photos and a physical inspection.

Did this 2017 FORD EXPLORER come with keys?

Yes — this lot was listed with keys present, which usually means the vehicle could at least be started or moved at the yard. Combined with water/flood damage, that tells you more about its condition than the damage label alone.
