2004 Ford Excursion Limited Sport Utility 4-door 6.8l on 2040-cars
United States
Just in time for summer vacation and trips to the lake; I have for sale my 2004 Ford Excursion Limited. You will have plenty of leg room to haul the entire family, those pesky neighbors kids that never seem to stay home, the family pet, AND all of the luggage. With its 3/4 ton suspension and powerful V10 gas engine this baby can "haul" (literally). Plenty of power to haul your boat, trailer, and camper to your getaway destination. Mechanically this vehicle has been well maintained and needs nothing. Engine starts and run smooth, only has 140,300 miles. Oil has been changed according to manufacture recommendations. Transmission shifts smooth with no shuddering or slipping, transmission temperature gauge built in the dash so you can keep a close eye on all your gages while in tow. Power windows, power locks, all leather with heated captain seats up front and bench 2nd and 3rd row seating. Tires are in great shape with few miles on them. Includes over head luggage racks and trailer tow package. This vehicle has been very dependable for me and my children. Over the years I have transported numerous children (almost the whole ball team) to and from sporting events, practices and camps. It has ample room for coolers, shoulder pads and helmets in the back. My children are now older and have started driving so my needs have changed. This vehicle will make a nice addition to those who are still growing their family. |

Nuclear-powered concept cars from the Atomic Age
Thu, 17 Jul 2014In the 1950s and early 60s, the dawn of nuclear power was supposed to lead to a limitless consumer culture, a world of flying cars and autonomous kitchens all powered by clean energy. In Europe, it offered the then-limping continent a cheap, inexhaustible supply of power after years of rationing and infrastructure damage brought on by two World Wars.
The development of nuclear-powered submarines and ships during the 1940s and 50s led car designers to begin conceptualizing atomic vehicles. Fueled by a consistent reaction, these cars would theoretically produce no harmful byproducts and rarely need to refuel. Combining these vehicles with the new interstate system presented amazing potential for American mobility.
But the fantasy soon faded. There were just too many problems with the realities of nuclear power. For starters, the powerplant would be too small to attain a reaction unless the car contained weapons-grade atomic materials. Doing so would mean every fender-bender could result in a minor nuclear holocaust. Additionally, many of the designers assumed a lightweight shielding material or even forcefields would eventually be invented (they still haven't) to protect passengers from harmful radiation. Analyses of the atomic car concept at the time determined that a 50-ton lead barrier would be necessary to prevent exposure.
The big dune jump and the damage done
Mon, 20 May 2013The Silver Lake sand dunes see their fair share of well-built trophy trucks executing impressive jumps. Drivers build insane pieces of machinery for the express purpose of sailing through the air like mad men and women.
Mike Higgins is no stranger to the area. His heavily modified Ford trophy truck has gone flying through the sky on more than one occasion, but he recently bit off more than he could chew. After hitting a particularly lofty dune, Higgins went airborne for a ridiculous 180 feet before becoming intimately familiar with the finer points of gravity.
While Higgins nailed the jump, his landing fell short of wowing the judges. The impact very nearly broke his truck in two. Despite the mechanical mayhem, the driver walked away without a scratch, proving that occasionally miracles really do happen. You can check out the jump and the subsequent destruction below for yourself. Be warned: there's a fair bit of foul language.
Watch how Ken Block spent his weekend in Barbados
Thu, 22 May 2014Regardless of what you think of his skill as a racer, Ken Block is an expert showman. At this point, he has a career of showing up around the world to do vehicular stunts, and he's still able to go racing as well. It's a pretty sweet niche to carve out. Recently, Block was in Barbados to participate in Top Gear Live and the first event of the Global Rallycross Championship season, and Ford Racing produced a short video to show off his exploits.
It looked like a great show. Block got to race Lewis Hamilton in a Mercedes-Benz Formula One car and had a very weird crash during a Rallycross race that put his Ford Fiesta on its roof. Top Gear also released an extended look at Block and Hamilton's spectacle with the two of them expertly sliding around. Scroll down to watch the videos and get a taste of Block's tropical racing adventure.
