For sale is my 2002 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer. This was my regular driver from 2005 to 2013. It now has apx. 190,000.miles. I had just got the Explorer a new PA inspection in the summer of 2012. New tires, brakes etc. Early 2013 the tranny started acting up. Rough shifting. I just parked it. I started driving one of my work vans. I called a tranny shop and got a verbal quote around $1500.00. I have never had it to the shop to get officially diagnosed. I am selling it with the assumption that it will need re built, or replaced. If it is something else then it will be a bonus to the winning buyer. It still can be driven. I don't know how far. I actually had it on the highway for a stretch and after it shifted through the gears it drove OK. I do not make any guarantees that you can drive it back home to ?? Check out the pictures I just took them for this auction. This Explorer always drove great. No known mechanical issues(other than the tranny). Only has a couple of thousand miles since the PA sticker was put on. Once again it has been sitting for about a year and a half. Brand new battery. The Explorer still looks great. The paint looks good. Some paint chips, some small rust bubbles, scratches, door dings etc. It is a 12 year old car that was a regular driver. The interior is in very nice condition. A little wear on the drivers seat. Good door panels, back seats are great. Carpets good. Glass good. Everything works. Moonroof, windows, locks, cruise, stereo with 6 pack CD. One of the pre sets ate my CD. Just coughed it up the other day. Air still blows cold. No third row. I kept it expecting to put the money in to repair it. I bought an older Navigator last summer. I just invested a grand into that to get a fresh inspection. Time to sell the Explorer. I do have it advertised locally and already have some interest. I was offered $1500.00. today. That is where I will start the bidding with no reserve. If you are local and want to come by and check it out let me know. Any questions just ask.

Ford to build next F-150, outgoing model concurrently?

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Ford is rumored to be considering concurrent production for old and new F-150 models in a bid to minimize supply chain disruptions and inventory. Automotive News is reporting that the Blue Oval will build both the current F-150 and its replacement, which we showed you testing just last month, side by side for about half a year before switching over entirely to next-generation production.
As IHS Automotive analyst Mike Jackson told AN, "In order to ramp up, you have to retool...and that means you have to take capacity offline." Building both models alongside could allow Ford to cope with the still strong demand for the current F-150, while populating dealer supplies and working out supply chain kinks for the new model before making a full-time switch.
A loss of capacity when demand is so strong, even for a short period, could spell bad news for Ford, which nets an estimated 90 percent of its global profit on pickups and large SUVs. As AN states, Ford produces the F-150 in both Kansas City, Missouri and Dearborn, Michigan, which allows it to maintain some degree of flexibility in production. The new F-150 is expected to arrive at the 2014 North American International Auto Show as a 2015 model, with a design inspired by the Atlas Concept first shown at the Detroit Auto Show last January.

Watch how a Ford Raptor rolls down the assembly line in Dearborn

Sun, 30 Mar 2014

Bloomberg TV reporter Matt Miller is the proud new owner of a pretty killer truck. How do we know? The reporter headed to Dearborn, MI to Ford's assembly plant, with a film crew in tow, to see exactly how his new F-150 SVT Raptor and its mother-loving 6.2-liter V8 engine, was screwed together.
The resulting video does an excellent job of summing up how an assemblage of parts and pieces is turned into a triple-black Raptor, thanks to the work of some 1,000 employees and about 20 hours of real time. Click through below to see how the truck is born, with a surprise cameo playing the part of delivery driver at the end.

Next Ford F-150 delayed for aluminum body panel issues?

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

The timetable for next-generation Ford F-150 may be in trouble if a report from The Truth About Cars is true. The next F-150 is slated to make extensive use of weight-saving aluminum in its body, but the aluminum alloy provided by suppliers hasn't met Ford's requirements in the earliest phases of pre-production, according to the report.
The F-150 represents a huge portion of Ford's profits and is the best-selling truck in the US, even in the face of increased pressure from cross-town rivals General Motors and Ram. While the current truck is treading water against its competition, we'd be lying if we said the F-150 weren't growing quite long in the tooth.
If production of the next-generation of the Ford cash cow, said to be based on the Atlas Concept from the 2013 Detroit Auto Show (pictured above), is delayed, it could be bad for Ford. Production at Ford's Dearborn Truck Plant is already set to be delayed six to ten weeks, missing an internal on-sale deadline of Memorial Day.
