**Attention**  This is NOT the hybrid.  Ebay is automatically bringing that in and I can't get rid of it!!  This is the 4 cylinder gasoline engine.  Sorry for any confusion.

This an absolutely LOADED 2011 Ford Escape Limited with only 40,071 miles. Gas prices are always going up it seems and this SUV gets some of the best MPG. If you live in a location that gets snow, have no fear, this FWD gets around perfectly and you can save the MPG from 4WD that you truly will not need. This is a very versatile vehicle, and believe it, or not has a THIRD ROW SEAT. We added the "Little Passenger Seat" shortly after we bought it and details about it are listed below. The third row seat truly makes this vehicle extremely versatile. If you have some small children out of rear facing child seats its perfect to get some additional seating. There are three seatbelts, but honestly we felt its better suited for two, due to space limitations. And this is a seat for children only, adults and teenagers are not going to fit comfortably in this seat. But that's the beauty; if you have the need then you have it. If there is a trip in which you need cargo, but not the seating, then it can easily be removed in minutes with NO TOOLS, and you'll have all the original cargo space. We also added Power Acoustik dual headrest touchscreen DVD players, which the details are listed below. The car has been very well taken care of. It's always in the garage, and has been serviced every 3,000 miles. The only blemishes are a small "door ding" apparently from another car in a parking lot, and a small, shallow scratch in the clear coat on the hood which can only be seen when the light is right. Its due for two new tires, but the rear have some mileage left in them.  We are only selling it because our family has outgrown it. Do your homework, lookup the value, include all these awesome options and you'll realize it's priced to sell. Don't forget the third row seat which I have the receipt showing cost $1,200 itself. Don't forget the DVD players which cost over $500. Read through these options, there is also information on the 3rd row seat and DVD Players which were copied directly from the manufacturers' websites.

STUDY: Ford owns brand loyalty in 2009; Scorned Saturn, Pontiac buyers will look outside of GM

Fri, 16 Oct 2009

Ford buyers appear to love their cars more than customers of any other automotive brand, returning back to the American automaker when it comes time to purchase their next vehicle. According to a study by Experian Automotive, six of the top 10 vehicles for customer brand loyalty wear badges from the Blue Oval. That includes the Ford Fusion (62.4 percent), Ford Edge (57.9 percent), Ford Five Hundred/Taurus (56 percent), Ford Freestyle (51.9 percent), Ford Escape (49.4 percent) and the Ford Focus (47.57 percent).
Other vehicles making up the top 10 include the Toyota Prius (52 percent), Chevy Impala (51.7 percent), Toyota Camry (47.8 percent) and Toyota Corolla (47.56 percent). This brings up an interesting question: With the closing of automotive brands like Saturn and Pontiac, where are those buyers to turn for their next automotive purchase?
Apparently, not back to General Motors. According to Experian, Pontiac owners are most likely to look to the Ford lineup for their next car or truck and Saturn shoppers will switch to Toyota or Honda - not particularly surprising given that Saturn was meant to compete with import brands. Experian predicts that GM's overall market share will fall from 20 percent to about 17.5 percent, with most of the slack being picked up by Ford, Honda and Toyota.

This is what a 3D-printed liquid metal Ford Torino looks like

Sat, 12 Oct 2013

Artist Ioan Florea has encapsulated a 1971 Ford Torino with 3-D-printed liquid metal transferred onto the car using technology that he developed, and the result is a stunningly shiny, seamless design.
"The surface has the highest coefficient of reflectivity never achieved before," Florea told us in an e-mail, using "nano-materials and nano-pigments that create an internal three-dimensional structure and dictate the polymer how to behave." Sure... We'll leave it to him to make any more 3-D-printed liquid metal-transferred art pieces.
Florea grew up in Romania, and the motivation behind picking the old Ford as his canvas came from his childhood memories of what an American car is - "big and wide and fascinating," he says - and the European name of the car itself, which it shares with an Italian city.

US Air Force Thunderbirds Mustang fetches $400K at auction

Wed, 07 Aug 2013

For the last six years, Ford has created a special version of the Mustang with a military aviation theme, and then donated the car to the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) to be auctioned off at the annual AirVenture event, also known as The World's Greatest Aviation Celebration. The money raised goes to the EAA Young Eagles program to inspire the "aviation pioneers of tomorrow," and this year's 2014 Ford Mustang GT US Air Force Thunderbirds Edition was won with a final bid of $398,000.
Celebrating 60 years of the USAF's Thunderbirds, this Mustang GT is the only one of its kind with a paint job matching the Thunderbirds' F-16 Falcon jets and some Ford Racing performance added on for good measure. Including this car, Ford has helped raise around $2.3 million for the charity with the biggest auction price coming from the first year of the program, the F-22 Raptor-inspired Mustang AV8R from 2008, which sold for $500,000.
