2006 Ford E350, Engine Gone, Otherwise A Gem. on 2040-cars
Monsey, New York, United States

Hate to see this baby go. After 7 faithful years and 300,000 miles of mostly carpooling kids to schools and camps its time has come. Engine went the way of the dinosaur and it's time to get a new horse and carriage for the kids.
Bought in 2006 as a same-year barely-used model with only 16000 miles the van lived a happy life watching kids grow up, hear their laughter, witness their rascalities, listen to their homework studies and inside-gossip. Before it landed on my driveway the van was used as a crew vehicle for the Sopranos. Some bragging creds right there. (A "Soprano's Crew" tag is still attached to the sun visor.) During its tumulous life span the van saw heat and cold, sub freezing temperatures and iron melting heat; new asphalted highways and others less so. Little scratches and standard wear are visible all over as a charming sign of age. Back door is adorned with stickers added by jovial adolescents expressing individuality and uniqueness. The 2 front tires are merely brand new. I just bought them at the end of summer. I would suggest you put them on on the rear for good traction. The spare tire is fully inflated and in top shape having barely been used. 1 of the 13 passenger cabin seat belts doesn't work properly. Driver's armrest came off when a suitcase was pushed against it. First bench cloth has a rip (fixable with a needle and thread, ask Mom to do it for you). AC is in top shape. The only complain I ever heard, even on the hottest days, was "Can you lower the AC?" which was music to my ears. Heat on the other hand works only in the front. Now, on most days, even very cold ones, the front heat covers the whole cabin all the way to the back. But I will show you an easy fix for that. It's just a screwdriver and a couple twists away. All 4 rows in the passenger cabin area come out to provide multiple configurations of cargo hauling space. Hope I didn't let anything out. Feel free to ask any question even as mundane as when I filled up gas last or as daunting as the age of the kids I chauffeured. Goes without saying that the van is not in a position to revolve its wheels on its own. It needs a tug. Preferably on top of a muscular flatbed but 2 barn yarn cords connected to a pickup truck will get it out of my driveway just as well. As for payment, I'll give you a chance. I will accept your check and wait the mandatory couple of days till my bank contacts your bank and has a Brinks truck deliver the money straight to my bank account. In other words no need for paypal (unless you insist, that is). |

Ford recalling 205k Edge and Lincoln MKX units for possible corrosion
Thu, 30 Oct 2014After the horrible weather last winter, it's hard to look forward for the season to return this year. For those readers in much of the country, the snow is going to be flying soon, and with it comes salt on the roads. That means Ford's regional recall for the 2007-2008 Edge and Lincoln MKX arrives at the perfect time because they are at risk for corrosion.
The campaign covers 204,448 examples of the models in 21 states, plus the District of Columbia and some provinces of Canada. In total there are 186,024 vehicles in need of repair in the US and 18,424 in Canada.
According to Ford, it's possible for the area, "under the reinforcement brackets where the fuel tank is mounted" to corrode. If this happens, there might be a gas smell in the vehicle or even a fuel leak could develop. In fact, the automaker reports that one fire could be related to the problem but no injuries or accidents are reported.
EU formally questions French government assistance of Peugeot's finance arm
Fri, 28 Dec 2012Recently, the finance arm of PSA/Peugeot-Citroën was in such debt trouble that it was pricing itself out of the car loan market. The rates it was paying to service its debt, which was rated one step above junk, were so high that it was forced to charge car-buying customers higher rates than they could find elsewhere. This was adding to Peugeot's already impressive woes by sending revenue out the door to competitors.
Two months ago a deal was worked out with the French government whereby the state would provide 7 billion euro ($9 billion USD) in bonds to guarantee the finance arm's loans. The French government could nominate someone to join the Peugeot board, Peugeot would guarantee more French jobs, and on top of that deal, other banks would provide non-guaranteed loans. The government would take no equity stake in the car company.
Although not yet finalized, the arrangement is meant to create some breathing room for Peugeot Finance to lower its interest rates for customers, and a government-nominated board member, Louis Gallois, was recently named to Peugeot's supervisory board. The arrangement was also openly questioned by at least three competitors: Ford, Renault - which is 15-percent owned by the French government after it received state aid - and the German state of Lower Saxony, itself a 15-percent shareholder in Volkswagen.
