1998 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer Sport Utility 4x4 on 2040-cars
Berkeley Heights, New Jersey, United States

This truck has been used as a station car and weekend vehicle for the past 13 years. I am the 2nd owner and bought it with only 21,000 miles on it from a guy who used it on weekends only. I have had it serviced regularly and never had any major issues or repairs on it including the 4WD. Overall it is in decent shape, but by no means perfect - it is almost 18 years old and I will try to list all everything I can remember about the truck. There is a long scratch down the driver and passenger side doors from being keyed at the RR station a few years back. Doesn't seem to be down to the metal, just through the clear coat and paint. There are a couple of stains and wear marks in the carpet, but mostly by the driver's seat. I would say 95% of the time, I was the only one in the car. No rips or tears in the leather seats at all. The back seat was rarely used and the 3rd row seat has been sitting in my basement ever since I bought the truck. The overhead light (one of the two) needs to be replaced - the little unit holding the bulb, not the bulb itself. The AC and heater both work fine. 6 disc CD player works fine. One of the back speakers distorts at high volume, but since I listen to sports talk radio, it doesn't bother me too much. If I think of anything else, I will update the page. I will add more pictures this weekend including the interior, but I wanted to get this out there as soon as I could, since I now have a replacement for this one. Low miles for the age compared to similar vehicles on eBay right now and hopefully someone can drive it for another 100,000 miles as these seems to last forever. Being sold AS IS. Tests drives are welcome on the weekends. Feel free to ask me any questions and I will try to answer them ASAP. |

Expert: 54.5 mpg CAFE standard can be reached without many plug-ins
Sat, Jan 18 2014Johnson Controls executive Brian Kesseler isn't likely to get any holiday presents this year from Nissan chief Carlos Ghosn or Tesla Motors head Elon Musk, but lots of other folks might be happy with what he has to say about automakers' efforts to reach stricter fleetwide fuel-economy standards. Speaking at the Automotive News World Congress, Kesseler said automakers wouldn't need to sell an extensive number of plug-in vehicles in order to meet the 54.5 mile per gallon Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standard the US government set in 2012 for 2025 model-year vehicles. In fact, he said, components such as stop-start engine technology, turbochargers and direct injection may actually do the trick. Already, things like smaller engine sizes and lighter cars are already playing major roles in spurring fuel-efficiency gains. Of course, Johnson Controls sells batteries specially built for stop-start systems, so Kesseler does have a bit of skin in this game. The 54.5-mpg CAFE standard equates to about a 40-mpg "real world" fuel-efficiency level. To put that into perspective, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said in a report late last year that model-year 2013 average fuel economy was an even 24 mpg. That was up from 23.6 mpg for the 2012 model year and 22.4 mpg for 2011.

Get a taste of Ford GT ownership from Dust Devils
Thu, Jan 1 2015It seems that the automotive world might be right on the cusp of getting some kind of follow-up to the Ford GT. It might not be called the GT or even use the coupe's retro look, but rumors point to such a beast being on the way. If the future halo model can inspire as much adoration among fans as the previous ones, then the Blue Oval is sure to have another winner on its hands. To get idea just how closely GT owners are bonded to their cars, take a ride with the participants in the ninth Ford GT National Rally in this short documentary titled Dust Devils. The owners convened with over 80 of the retro supercars in Las Vegas, NV, to admire the coupes and give them a workout on the desert roads. It's especially nice to see the drivers of these limited production Fords unafraid to take their cars to the track and stretch their legs a little.

The long, low-slung look is simultaneously menacing and lithe, and the growl from the latest model's supercharged V8 is nothing to complain about either. Get just the slightest taste of what it's like to have one of these halo Fords in this clip, from the people that love them the most.

2014 Ford Mustang GT
Fri, 17 May 2013I was more than a year removed from my last experience with the Mustang GT and its delicious 5.0 V8 when this new 2014 example rolled up to my driveway recently. Good weather and a planned road trip across the state meant that I would get plenty of seat time in this conservatively specified example, too. In total, I logged about 400 miles in a week of driving - not a lot for some of you super commuters out there, but quite a lot for this work-from-home journalist.
The basic formula of the 5.0 has stayed the same for 2014. The 2013 model year saw a number of updates to keep the Mustang fresh until it's replaced with an all-new generation for 2015. So, for its bon voyage tour, the fifth-generation Pony Car has seen only a few modifications: a couple of new paint colors (Oxford White and Ruby Read Metallic), trim and wheel revisions and, sadly, the deletion of the Boss 302 from the Ford lineup. However, while the limited-edition Boss is likely to reappear sometime after the gen-six Mustang makes its debut in 2015, the GT Track Package cars like the one I tested provide at least a partial solution for those looking for hot laps.
