This vehicle has a "rebuilt" branded title.  It was wrecked in Florida in 2012.  It was repaired by Auction Direct in Miami in summer  of 2012.  I purchased the car from the Florida seller with full knowledge of the damage and a picture of the Escape before it was repaired (see pictures).  No airbag deployment and relatively minor right front damage.  I wanted to try a Ford Escape for my personal vehicle, but had no idea of how I would like a Hybrid.  I thought this would be a cheap way to test out the Hybrid.

This has been my personal car since August 2012.  I have recently purchased another Ford Escape Hybrid as I have had a very good experience with this one that is for sale.  The mileage has been impressive for an SUV.  I don't know of another SUV that gets the 30 MPG I have gotten with this one.  I've driven several Rav4's, a Mazda Tribute, and a regular Escape.

I hold a Texas Dealer License, so I change cars a couple of times a year.  If you are a Texas buyer, please be prepared to pay for Texas sales tax, title transfer fees, registration, etc.  at the time you pay me for this Escape.  I do not add any fees.

The Escape is sold with a SATISFACTION GUARANTEE. If you arrive to pick up the car and don't want it for any reason, you are not obligated to complete the sale, and your deposit will be refunded in full.  If you purchase the car and want me to assist you with shipping or delivery, I am happy to do so, but the car must be PAID IN FULL before it leaves my house.  Once it leaves my house, there is no guarantee or warranty.

I am a local County Judge and I have no desire to cheat you or rip you off.  I believe you will get a great buy on a low mile Escape with plenty of life left in it, and despite it's damage history, it makes very decent transportation.

THE BAD ABOUT THIS ESCAPE....Rebuilt Title (totaled by insurance company and sold at auction), rear tires need to be replaced within 5,000 miles, front tires within 10,000 miles. The SERVICE SOON message and icon comes on from time to time.  There is a buzzing noise inside of one of the A/C vents to the right of the radio that occurs when you don't run the fan.  I dont know what makes the noise.  It hasn't been a bother for me since i ususally have some kind of fan running for heat or air conditioning.  Low tire pressure light occasionally comes on due to a slow leak in right rear tire.  Air it up and the low pressure light goes off.

THE GOOD ABOUT THIS ESCAPE.....Low Miles, around 67,500.  Title indicates not actual miles as with any rebuilt title, however the AutoCheck history seems to indicate the miles at the time i purchased it were correct.  Great mileage, averaging around 30 MPG.  Charging system and hybrid battery indicate all's well.  Recent brake job about 4,000 miles ago.

I live in Mt Pleasant, TX (Titus County), but the Escape is located in North Dallas with my 30 year old son so that it is more accessible for buyers; You may inspect it at his workplace, Central Expressway at Park Lane.  Inspections are welcome and encouraged.

Please check out my SELLER FEEDBACK on previous sales of Cars and Motorcycles.  No negative feedback, all happy customers.  I want to keep it that way.

If you need assistance with shipping, I will be glad to offer you guidance, but the final decision as to who to hire will be YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.

$500 deposit via PayPal is due within 24 hours of auction end, balance due within 5 days.  I will transfer the title for you and mail you Texas license plates (if you are a Texas buyer).  If you are an out of town buyer, I will  give you clear title at time of pickup, or I will mail you the title.

Please call with any questions or email me. Thanks, Brian    titusjudge at gmail dot com or 903-466-6666

Ford bringing adaptive steering to the masses [w/video]

Thu, 29 May 2014

Within the next year, Ford will offer a brand-new adaptive steering system (unimaginatively dubbed "Ford Adaptive Steering"), and this week, the automaker invited us out to its proving grounds in Dearborn, MI to get a taste for how its new setup works. In function, Ford's system doesn't greatly differ from the majority of other adaptive steering units already on the market from companies like Audi or BMW, but consider this: Ford will be the first non-luxury automaker to offer this technology, and uniquely, the whole system fits inside the car's steering wheel.
Ford's engineers have worked hard to create a system that can be tacked on to the company's full lineup of cars, trucks and utility vehicles, and says that the adaptive steering will be uniquely tuned for each specific vehicle. The automaker will not confirm exactly which vehicle will launch with this technology, but for the purpose of our preview, we tested the technology in a 2014 Fusion - a vehicle with already-good behind-the-wheel feel, one that the company says best demonstrates its current steering efforts.

Ford Mustang returning to Australia in 2016

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

Australia's Herald Sun newspaper has reported that the next-generation Ford Mustang is heading Down Under in 2016, just as Ford is hanging the "Closed for Good" sign on its Australian manufacturing operations and sending the Falcon to its grave. Ford hasn't offered any official word on the matter, but the paper says that Ford's global VP of sales and marketing, Jim Farley, is flying to Australia to make the announcement himself.
While Ford converted Mustangs in the early 2000s from left-hand to right-hand drive for the Australian market and then sold them at high prices, it's been almost five decades since Ford imported a dedicated right-hand-drive Mustang to Oz. The arrival of the global model specifically made for places like Australia and the UK means Ford will also be able to offer them at better prices than the converted models; the Herald Sun says the price is expected to be "close to $50,000."
And that's for one of the "V8 performance models," which are the only ones Australia will get; Ford apparently won't send the turbocharged four cylinder or the V6. The Aussies could find out in a month from now whether this rumor is true. We will all find out what this Mustang fuss is about when the car debuts at next year's New York Auto Show.

Ford's Troller introduces even more rugged T4 SUVs in Sao Paulo

Mon, 27 Oct 2014

The Bronco may be long gone from Ford dealerships back home, but down in Brazil its spirit lives on in the Troller brand. Founded independently in 1995, Ford do Brasil took over Troller in 2007 and has been teasing us with its rough-and-tumble SUVs ever since. So with the Sao Paulo Motor Show coming up, Troller has revealed this special version of the T4.
Looking even more rugged than the existing three-door sport-ute, this special T4 packs a snorkel, winch, upgraded bumpers and knobbier tires. We're not sure what to make of the "sophisticated" brown and tan paint job, but send it north and the Jeep Wrangler would have a new challenger on its hands... especially since the Toyota FJ Cruiser was discontinued.
Alongside the version seen here, Troller will also exhibit another T4 outfitted for rescue workers. Scope out initial details of both in the press release below, enclosed in both its original Portuguese and auto-translated into English.
