 This is a great car, and the AWD is an amazing feature. We live in the snow belt, and often see accumulation close to a foot. I have never gotten stuck with this car, and it is very solid on snowy roads. Our old truck recently departed for the great junkyard in the sky, and we couldn't afford to keep the car and buy a new truck, so unfortunately, the car has to go. It can do a lot of things, but it can't pull a livestock trailer or haul hay. We bought this car Ford Certified used, it was a lease trade in, and had less than 14000 on it. I took great care of this car; all oil changes on time with synthetic blend, regular maintenance, tire rotation, etc. It has the 6 disk CD changer, which was a huge selling point for me, and I have never had a problem with it. I was in an accident a couple years ago; I was rear ended in a low speed collision. It was a bumper replace, no other damage. We had it fixed at the Ford dealership. The windshields were also replaced at the Ford dealership a few years back; the front had a stone chip, but then something (we have no idea what, but think it was a big rock from a passing truck) fell through the back window, so I had them both done at the same time since the insurance was paying for both. There is the original spare that I have never used, the back seats flip down making it able to haul really big items. It gets really good gas mileage, even in town, and it has a huge gas tank. Now that I drive a full size truck on a regular basis, I miss the gas mileage on my Fusion...a lot. This is mechanically sound, no leaks, no problems that I am aware of. We just had it to a Ford mechanic a couple weeks ago, it checked out good, but they recommended the transmission hoses be replaced, so we had that done. The pictures are from late summer, but we are putting it up for sale now because we were waiting to see if we could keep the car and buy a new truck, but we can't. We drove it to Pittsburgh a couple days ago and it runs like a dream, so no problems. Someone is getting a really good car, and they are going to be vary happy with it. We bought this because at the time, it was a much cheaper option than a 4x4 truck or jeep. I am sure someone will be as happy with this car as I was. Feel free to contact me with any questions. Unfortunately, I have had some bad experiences selling little things on Ebay like books and stuff. I have never sold a car before, I am hoping everyone is more honest about it, but, if you don't have a good buyer rating, or if you have a history of not paying, or other problems, I will delete your bid. I will require a deposit within 24 hours, and the balance due within 3 days. There will be no arrangements made to pick up the car until the balance has been paid in full. I will accept cash, cashiers check, or paypal. There is NO lien on the vehicle, it is payed off.

EU formally questions French government assistance of Peugeot's finance arm

Fri, 28 Dec 2012

Recently, 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.

Pickup prices rising at 2x industry average

Tue, 11 Jun 2013

We've said it before, but bears repeating: Pickup trucks are the financial engines of America's automakers. Good thing, then, that the segment is in rude health - in fact, Automotive News is suggesting that pickup truck sales are arguably healthier than they were pre-recession, even though the segment's volume is still significantly down from where it was before the bottom fell out of the US economy. That's because per-unit profits on full-size trucks are skyrocketing, outpacing the industry's average price increases by more than double since 2005. According to data from Edmunds, the average transaction price of a full-size pickup is now $39,915 - a heady increase over the $31,059 average price in 2005 - a gain of over 8 percent after inflation is factored in.
Just how important are trucks to automakers' bottom lines? Automotive News quotes a Morgan Stanley analyst as saying the Ford F-Series is responsible for 90 percent of the company's 2012 profits, and General Motors isn't far behind, with the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra twins chipping in about two-thirds of the automaker's earnings.
Automotive News points out that Detroit's automakers now have the money to invest in modernizing their full-size truck offerings, in part because they don't have the same overhead and legacy costs that pushed General Motors and Chrysler into bankruptcy. Certainly, the pickup segment has seen a lot of innovations as of late, including turbocharged V6s, coil-spring rear suspensions and active aero. Those improvements in important areas like fuel economy and ride comfort have given existing pickup buyers new reasons to upgrade. In addition, automakers are piling on the tech and luxury goodies, creating more and more high-content, high-profit models like the Ford F-150 King Ranch, Ram 1500 Laramie Longhorn and Chevrolet Silverado High Country (shown).

Ford bringing production F-150 to Detroit with Atlas styling and Alcoa blast shields

Fri, 27 Dec 2013

According to a report in Bloomberg, the 2015 Ford F-150 will indeed be showing up at the Detroit Auto Show next month. It will bring attitude with it, not only in the form of sheetmetal inspired by the Atlas concept (pictured) that appeared at the 2013 Detroit show but also in the Alcoa military blast shields among the display being used to showcase the ruggedness of aluminum.
There's been a lot of talk about the F-150 switching to aluminum body panels (although maintaining a steel frame), and for good reason. The lightweight body is expected to shed more than 700 pounds and greatly increase its highway mileage, but production-line issues and possible delays have been a major focus of attention concerning the best-selling vehicle in America for 32 years, meaning Ford has to get it right. F-150 is responsible for a massive portion of the company's global profits and it will come in a year when company profits are already predicted to decline because of new car launches.
When it comes to dings, the Bloomberg story says Ford wants Alcoa to supply some of the military-grade aluminum it uses for blast shields on battlefield vehicles to help it talk up the toughness of aluminum. Reading commentary on the many stories about the F-150 reveals there are many more little questions about the aluminum overhaul, like "How much will it cost to repair and insure?" and "How will companies hang their magnetic signs?" Answers should start coming in a couple of weeks.
