Daily driver condition, well maintained, drives and runs perfect.  Almost everything works perfectly, its easier to list the things that don't.  The backup light switch has got a problem, it shorts out the fuse when you put it in reverse and that fuse also controls the turn signals so the backup light switch has been disconnected for a couple of years.  I'm sure a junkyard would yield a replacement but I haven't bothered.  The transfer case indicator lights aren't working, it shows when you're in 4X4 mode but not the individual 4H, 4L lights.  They were working until I replaced the transfer case so I suspect the new case internal switch isn't quite right.  Odometer currently shows 4032 miles, clearly the real mileage is in excess of its mechanical limit.


Transmission was rebuilt approximately 50K miles ago, the aforementioned transfer case about the same time.  All of the suspension bushings have been replaced with urethane so everything articulates great.  Shocks are James Duff, about 40K on them.  Door handles shaved, two key fobs included that pop the doors, works perfectly and been very reliable, back lift gate still has key hole and handle.  Interior was redone a few years back in the original color scheme but in vinyl instead of the original cloth, carpet replaced at the same time.  Engine starts, runs great, gets about 20 MPG around town and out on the freeway, passes emissions inspection easily if needed (not anymore in Texas, its over 25 years old).  Front brake calipers replaced about 10K miles ago, radiator about 30K miles ago, e-brake cables about 40K miles ago.  Tires are getting close to the wear bars, if I were keeping it I'd be considering new pretty soon.  All the lenses, taillights, headlights, turn signal indicators were replaced so they are all in perfect condition.  Window glass is all in perfect condition, no chips anywhere.  I daily drove it for many years and maintained it as such, I wouldn't hesitate to do so again.

Weak spot is some rust.  Pictures show the worst spots, nothing structural.

Buyer MUST pick up the vehicle by June 10th or earlier.  I reserve the right to end the auction early.

Watch Piquet and Mansell bend some sheetmetal in Ford Fusion GP

Tue, 12 Feb 2013

As we told you about before, there were four episodes planned for the Ford Fusion GP campaign in Brazil, and the whole series has now run its course. The Ford ads pit Brazilian Formula One driver Nelson Piquet against English F1 pilot Nigel Mansell driving the new Fusion, the two coming together again after their partnership at the Williams F1 team ended in a miserable state more than 20 years ago.
They're lined up for you below, in reverse chronological order. You should watch number three first, though, as it adds a bit more spice to the NASCAR action in the fourth.

2015 Ford F-150 enters production

Wed, 12 Nov 2014

Ford has given the F-150 a dramatic makeover for 2015, switching to an aluminum body that helps reduce weight by about 700 pounds. Because the truck is dramatically different, Ford also had to change the way it makes the F-150, so we went inside its sprawling factory in Dearborn, MI, this week to see the Blue Oval's new manufacturing techniques in action.
The company has added 850 jobs at the site and upgraded its stamping and tool and die facilities. The body shop is also modernized, and it has been fitted with 500 new robots that join the structures together. The first 2015 F-150 rolled off the line on Tuesday, and the trucks will begin arriving in dealerships in December. Get a closer look at the F-150's unique assembly process in our video.

Ford hybrids getting update to improve fuel economy

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

Ford has announced that it is introducing "calibration updates designed to improve on-road fuel economy for owners of the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid, 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid and 2013 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid."
We can speculate that these changes are at least due in part to lawsuits over mileage claims of hybrid vehicles. The automaker is enhancing 2013 models starting in August by raising their electric cruising speed to 85 miles per hour from 62 mph, optimizing the use of active grille shutters and the climate control system, shortening the engine warm-up period by 50 percent and reducing electric fan speed to minimize the fan's energy consumption.
It bears mentioning that Ford is doing pretty well in the US electrified vehicle market this year. The company claims to have grown its share in the segment by 12 points to 16 percent while taking a high number of Toyota Prius trade-ins in the process. Conversely, Toyota has experienced a five-percent drop in new-Prius sales over the same period. Additionally, Ford states that it has increased its share of the US vehicle market by one percent this year, more than any full-line automaker.
