This is our beloved “Mothership” - FIRST AND FOREMOST I have bought and sold many cars on eBay and one thing is paramount FULL DISCLOSURE so here you go, this is the story of The Mothership I am the original owner, purchased this from Varsity Ford in Ann Arbor, MI in Feb. of 2001. She left the lot with 20 miles on her and she will come to you with over 328,000 miles of experience and adventures. Her favorite place on earth is the U.P. in Michigan, if you’ve never been there, just point her north, set the cruise and enjoy the ride, she knows the way. She has also taken us to FL, AL, KY, OH, IL,& WI. We are a family of 5 (six including Fritz our German Shepard) and this truck is a part of our family, but the time has come to part ways. My oldest son was 4 almost 5 when I bought this and he’ll be graduating High School this coming year. For the last 2 years, we have only driven her on family vacations every Thanksgiving & Christmas we spend in the UP (750 miiles round trip). When we all travel together, we all PREFER to take the Mothership vs. our new cars, but we can no longer justify the cost of multiple vehicles. The decision to offer her to a new owner has only taken us 2 years to make :-) She has ZERO mechanical issues. She does has some cosmetic issues and I will detail everything below. This is a 12 year old vehicle so expect to see the typical signs of use and wear. I did not invest in the industrial size bottle of armor all to make the pics look shiny and fake. For those of you looking for a great deal on Ford’s awesome 7.3L Powerstroke Turbo Diesel you’ll find it in the Mothership Here is The Good, The Bad and The Ugly... this is the stuff I would want to know if I was going to bid. The technical stuff (features and options) will come from Kelley Blue Book. THE GOOD She has Ford’s bullet-proof “Million Mile Motor” 7.3L Turbo Diesel runs a smooth and strong as she did when new Oil Changes & Reg Maintenance all done on schedule. A/C is cold Heat works great New Jasper Transmission installed at approx 285,000 miles Front Hubs replaced with WARN (lifetime warranty) locking hubs Shocks are Monroe (Lifetime warranty) Brake Pads (lifetime warranty) ALL fuel injectors & Glow Plugs were just replaced Luke at L&A Auto in Jackson, MI (highly recommend him) has been taking care of The Mothership since she was just a pup. All records are available for the serious bidders New (lifetime warranty) Alternator just installed this Spring, apparently Ford only builds these to last 326,000 miles - go figure :-) New serpentine belt installed last winter New adjuster pulley installed same time as the belt New Fuel Filter just installed these were typically replaced every 5-10k miles Rear climate controls and radio controls all work perfectly No Accidents NO AFTERMARKET PERFORMANCE KITS EVER USED ON THIS TRUCK THE BAD Passenger blinker lens broken - see pictures She will need new tires within the next 3000 miles Rear window will not stay up on it’s own in the cold weather hydraulic arms should probably be replaced Driver side door speaker seems to have stopped working - all the rest are fine The Rear driver side hinged window, the one by the spare tire, the hinge is broken, the motor to open it works fine, but there is a pin that holds the hinge together and it is broken... never been a problem for us because the spare tire is there anyway and Fritz likes the other window open to get his smells along the way There was some body work done on the driver side rear pillar, someone backed into it while is was in a parking lot. Local body shop did the repairs, no structural damage. The driver side back dutch door was replaced, I put a hole in the original door backing up to the trailer (oops) again, no structural damage. New door, some paint, she was good to go. Pull down DVD screen with wireless headphones we are working on troubleshooting this, but during the last use (school field trip) we can't seem to get the DVD out of the machine... so there may be a bonus DVD of The Incredible's included if we can't figure out what's wrong. THE UGLY Various scratches, Stains see pictures, I did my best to show you the most obvious ones, nothing outside what you would expect for a 12 year old vehicle that has “raised 3 kids” and been the go-to vehicle for every school field trip. Chip in the windshield right below mirror mount - see pics Passenger mirror had to be “frozen in place” with silicone. The brackets that hold the mirror in place broke a couple winters ago while we were scraping the mirror and I just haven’t felt like paying the $500 Ford wants for a new mirror assembly. The heated part of the mirror still works fine The back support bracket for the running board on the driver side has rusted out and needs some support. Driver side just behind the passenger door there is a dent and scratch from a blue post office box (turned too sharp too soon) I think this is everything, feel free to email, we will do our best to reply asap. My BUY IT NOW is below the Kelly Blue Book info listed below.

Ford hybrid sales rebound following MPG controversy
Sun, 31 Aug 2014Ford hybrid customers apparently have very short memories. With two EPA fuel economy reratings in the last year, sales of the C-Max, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ haven't been too terribly dented, Ward's Auto reports.
All three vehicles saw sales dips following the August 2013 rerating, although sales of the MKZ Hybrid had begun to rebound as early as November of that year. C-Max sales, meanwhile, took slightly longer, with sales on a steadily improving course as early as February of this year.
The second rerating, in June of this year, has had an even smaller effect on the Blue Oval's hybrids. The C-Max has actually been subject to a sales increase, while both the MKZ and Fusion saw minor sales drops (less than 400 units between the two in the month following the rerating).
Ford ditching Microsoft in favor of BlackBerry QNX for next-gen Sync?
Mon, 24 Feb 2014Ask the average consumer - at least, those who follow the goings-on in the automotive industry - which carmaker they'd most closely associate Microsoft, and the answer you'd most likely get would be Ford. The Blue Oval automaker, after all, was at the forefront of bringing Microsoft technology into cars with its pioneering Sync system, and, though reality didn't turn out as such, Ford's CEO was recently touted as a potential future head of the Redmond-based software giant. But that relationship, according to the latest reports, could be coming to an end.
Alan Mullaly kiboshed the idea of leaving Dearborn for Redmond, but more importantly Ford is tipped to be ditching Microsoft in developing its next-generation Sync system. In its place, Ford is expected to partner with BlackBerry's QNX division.
Now, before you go balking "BlackBerry?! But they're finished!" consider that QNX is (or at least was) an independent entity that Research In Motion (as BlackBerry's Ontario-based parent company was then known) just happened to have bought back in 2010. QNX provides control systems to everything from nuclear power plants and UAVs to automakers like Audi, BMW and Porsche.
Watch Ken Block's scary Rally America crash from inside the cockpit
Wed, 19 Feb 2014Ken Block became famous for his series of Gymkhana videos, but he's a real racer in his own right. Block has competed many rounds in the FIA World Rally Championship and also rallied in the 2013 Rally America series. He nearly won that latter title last year - if not for a massive crash in the final event of the season.
Block and his co-driver Alex Gelsomino went into the Lake Superior Performance Rally needing a win to take the championship. However, missing a clump of dirt on the side of the road and one little word in the pace notes was all it took to catapult Block's Fiesta off the road and into a tumbling accident. Block says his initial reaction was anger because the crash came out of nowhere.
For 2014, Block is joining the FIA World Rallycross Championship for at least three rounds. He'll drive a Ford Fiesta for the Hoonigan Racing Division at the Norwegian, French and Turkish events of the 12-round championship. Former Formula One World Champion Jacques Villeneuve will also compete in the series.
