2008 Ford EDGE, Dark Navy Blue (easily mistaken for black most of the time). It's the mid-tier SEL trim model of the Edge with the important All-Wheel Drive option.
Brand new Good Year tires were installed last month and a fresh alignment was done. Cloth seats.
The Edge is valued at $14,560 on Kelly Blue Book at its current mileage, options, and in "good" (average) condition. I'm listing it as "good" condition (as opposed to Excellent, or Very Good conditions listed by Blue Book) as it is in great mechanical condition, but there are some cosmetic flaws in the form of scratches. The cosmetic flaws are of a nature that you won't be able to see them well in pictures but you can pick them up when you're close up with the car. I have added some closeups of the major cosmetic scratches along the passenger rear door, passenger rear quarter panel, back bumper and hood. There is a small impression a couple inches wide on the driver's side door, likely from a door ding.
Other issues include some stains on the carpet in the back seating area, mostly covered by the premium rubber mats, and some stains in the back cargo area. The car is in a very presentable conditional, but it is not perfect. Everything else is what you would expect from a car that is only five years old and has less than 75000 miles. The car is mechanically sound and is still fairly new. I treat the car well and fill up on Techron gas and change the oil regularly with Mobile 1 full synthetic.
The car is listed here on EBAY with a rebuilt title, however it does have a clear Texas title. In 2009 it was purchased from an insurance company following a wreck in late 2008. It was repaired, sold, and given a rebuilt title in Arizona. I bought the car with a rebuilt title in Nevada, and moved to Texas in 2011. Texas recognizes other state's "salvage" titles but not "rebuilt" titles. The thinking is likely that because a "rebuilt" vehicle is repaired and inspected to certain standards, it is in the same condition as any vehicle that has been involved in an accident. In any case, the "rebuilt" brand was stripped from the title in 2011 according to Texas law and the vehicle has a clear, unbranded, normal title. The accident was about four years and forty-five thousand miles ago and there are no issues with the car.
You will get a great deal on a very dependable vehicle that will last you another ten years or more.
I will expect the winning bidder to send an initial payment of $300 through PayPal within 48 hours of auction closing. The rest of the payment will be done through Cash or Bank Checks. I need full payment by July 5, 2013.
Buyer is responsible for all shipping costs, however, I am willing to assist in getting the vehicle hooked up with the shipper.
Good Luck.

Mazda Turnpike in Japan shut down for racing
Mon, Dec 29 2014The people behind Motorhead Magazine in Japan clearly have some friends in high places. Not only did they manage to shutdown eight kilometers of the Mazda Turnpike up the Hakone mountain, but they invited some of the country's premiere racers to take a drive up the hill. This wasn't just a Sunday cruise either. Featuring a BMW Z4 from the Super GT series, a classic Ford GT40, two flavors of Nissan GT-R and two takes on the Subaru Impreza WRX STI, these guys came ready to run. When an opportunity to let racecars challenge a curvy mountain road presents itself, you don't squander it. Thankfully, the folks at Motorhead knew that and outfitted the course with a plethora of cameras and high-quality sound equipment to capture the action. The result is nothing short of sublime. Take the video's urging to turn up your speakers for this one, and watch as these racers hit ludicrous speeds in a beautiful place never meant for them.

How the 2015 Ford Mustang will save your knees
Sat, 21 Jun 2014The 2015 Mustang is one of the most hotly anticipated vehicles of the moment, and Ford continues to leak out interesting little details about its newest pony car. The latest info doesn't have anything to do with its quarter-mile time or handling, but if any of that goes drastically wrong, the innovative new glovebox-mounted airbag may prevent passengers from knee injuries.
All variants of the 2015 Mustang get the active knee airbag as standard, and it's the first vehicle in Ford's lineup to receive the system. The setup is actually quite simple and ingenious. The glovebox is made from a plastic outer panel that is attached to the inner door. Sandwiched between them is this new injection-molded plastic bladder that folds flat when in use. If the passenger-side airbag deploys, the system springs into action to act as a cushion for your knees. Compared to a traditional knee airbag that has to fully inflate, this arrangement is 65 percent lighter and can use a 75 percent smaller inflator. It's also basically invisible when you look at the glovebox door.
Ford spokesperson Ed Saenz declined to tell Autoblog whether the system will appear in other vehicles in the Blue Oval's lineup but said, "We're considering other applications." Provided it's effective, the approach seems too simple not to make its way to other products. Scroll down to watch a video showing how the glovebox-mounted knee airbag works.
Ford bumped by Amazon in best-perceived brand list
Mon, 20 Jan 2014Back in July, a mid-year study from YouGov found Ford to have higher brand perception than any other company in the US. While Ford failed to top the year-end study, it still has plenty to brag about. The final BrandIndex report shows that online retail giant Amazon edged out Ford for the top ranking, while Subway, the History Channel and Lowe's rounded out the top five spots.
For Ford, it's still an improvement from sixth place in the 2012 study, and, more importantly, it dominated other automakers in terms of brand perception with a clear advantage over Toyota, Honda, Chevy and Volkswagen. To determine how well - or not so well - a brand is perceived, YouGov uses a Buzz score that asks respondents whether they've "heard anything about the brand in the last two weeks, through advertising, news or word of mouth" and whether it was positive or negative. While it isn't clear how many respondents were included, YouGov does point out that Ford had a strong presence in social media, advertising and newsworthy toward the end of the year.
