1998 Ford Escort Se 178000 Miles. Runs Great, Good On Gas! on 2040-cars
Niles, Michigan, United States
|
For sale 1998 Ford Escort SE. 178782 original miles (miles may go up by a few due to me driving it to keep it maintained around the block). Never smoked in. The car runs and drives really well for its age. My girlfriend received it from her father as a graduation present and drove it for 4 years. It has been very reliable and great on gas and has been mostly driven on the highway going back and forth to school and work. Only selling because she upgraded to a newer car and wont be able to afford insurance for 3 vehicles.
I have just recently replaced the following within the past year: New Battery 12/2013 (Autocraft Silver) Rear struts and springs (Quick strut) Rear brake lines Front ball joints (MOOG) Front sway bar links (MOOG) Plug wire set (Bosch) Double platinum spark plugs (Autolite) Front brake pads (Duralast) Transmission flush Power steering flush New air filter (Motorcraft replaced at 177500 with oil change) The timing belt and water pump has been also replaced as of 2/09 with approximately 140,000 miles (receipts retained) The A/C will need to be recharged, I believe its low on refrigerant. Last season it blew pretty cold, but not perfect. Recently its not as cold, but gets colder the more you drive. Compressor still kicks on so more than likely a pound or so of R-134a could be added. (Possible small leak) The alignment is a little off, so it will need a new front end alignment Passenger side door has been repainted the closest color I could match to the color code for the car. We got the car with a huge dent in the door panel next to the handle from a deer running into it while driving. The door wouldn't latch so I picked up a whole new door assembly from LKQ that was red. Everything latches properly now and I repainted the inside and out of the panel to match. Besides a few cosmetic issues, the car would be great for daily commuting or a first car. I haven't had any serious issues besides the normal wear parts such as brake pads, and suspension parts. I am asking $1500 O.B.O. as is. I am willing to come down a little bit in price, but no low ball offers. If I cant sell at a reasonable price, I will keep it for myself to drive daily. My name is Tyler and if you have any questions feel free to message me, or call/ text me at 269-635-2765. |

Watch how a Ford Raptor rolls down the assembly line in Dearborn
Sun, 30 Mar 2014Bloomberg 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.

Ford, Ram in heavy-duty towing spat
Mon, 28 Jul 2014Every pickup truck commercial has the brand trying to convince us that its model is the biggest, brawniest vehicle on the block. But Ford and Ram appear ready to really throw down the gauntlet and scrap over the towing figures for their heavy-duty models, and it could potentially end up in court.
The issue revolves around what it means to be best in class. Ford claims that its 2015 F-450 (pictured above) has a max tow rating of 31,200 pounds, compared to 30,000 pounds for the Ram 3500 (right). However, both companies market these heavy haulers as having the top towing in their class. According to Automotive News, Ford is threatening legal action if Ram doesn't back down.
The situation isn't as simple as just comparing the numbers, though. First, the two companies calculate their towing capacities differently. Ram adheres to the SAE J2807 rating, while Ford uses its own internal system. Although, as the company introduces new models, they are certified using the SAE standard. "When an all-new F-Series Super Duty is introduced, it also will use SAE J2807," said Ford to Autoblog in an emailed statement.
