Up for sale is a 1998 Ford Expedition XLT 5.4L Triton V8 Motor, with 131,476 miles on it. I bought it in Februrary, planning to repair everything to restore it cosmetically, and tow with it.  Title is clear, and in hand. The truck appears to me,  to have been in an accident, due to the various body damage that it has on it.  Once listed, vehicle information should be available within the listing.

I don't want to put anymore money into it, and am looking to recoup some of the money invested.  After I bought it, I had to have the inner and outer tie rods replaced, tires, and an alignment.  So the Good-Engine and Trans, Tires, inner and Outer tie Rods, Alignment, and Hitch.  Have all paperwork for that recent work which costs me $990 total.
  It has 4 wheel drive, but when I tried it to get out of a parking spot, it didn't seem to help, so I am not sure what the issue is.  Bad- Cosmetically not appealing, and there is a wire that came loose on the passenger side, that appears to plug into something, but didn't keep it from driving.  I am not sure what it is, but I drove it back from Chicago that way last night, and have driven it today as well. If I find out what it is, I will ad it to the listing later.  It has tan leather seats, that need TLC, and no 3rd row seat.  Seatbelts work in the front and the passenger rear side only.  The worst area is probably the passenger rear quarter panel, the front passenger headlight and corner light, and the bumpers.

The passenger front window won't come down.  The driver's side looks pretty good.  There is a hitch on the SUV, but no ball.  The back door opens and window, however it did get stuck on me once and wouldn't open.  The top hinge of the rear window needs fixing.  All items can be found at a junkyard, and replaced. Found headlight 4 piece set on ebay for $50.  Has an aftermarket CD player that works, but not great, and speakers are horrible, except maybe one. The exterior is Black, with some flat black painted areas.  Feel free to ask me questions, and I will respond the best I can , with what I know about the truck. 

Running a 3 day auction, or you can click the Buy it now and buy it immediately.  Upon Auction end, payment of $750 is expected within 24 hours, and the remainder within 3 days.  Depending on the distance, I may be able to drive it to you, for an extra charge, which I would require through Paypal, and can add to the invoice.  If that is of interest, please send me a question through Ebay and let me the city and state you are in.  I am near Champaign, Illinois, two hours south of Chicago, Illinois.

Ford Mustang was almost 'Imported from Detroit'

Wed, Oct 7 2015

The Ford Mustang achieved iconic status nearly the moment the sheet came off at the 1964 World's Fair. And if Henry Ford II wasn't getting divorced around that time, the pony car might have been called the Torino and been marketed as 'Imported from Detroit,' according to Automotive News. We'll explain. During research for the new book Once in a Great City: A Detroit Story, author David Maraniss found an interesting connection between Chrysler's (now FCA US) slogan and the Ford Mustang. Before the pony car even had a name, the Blue Oval's advertising agency had the idea to market it as a "brand new import ... from Detroit," according to Automotive News. The vehicle would be sold as "inspired by Italy's great road cars, but straight from Detroit." The name Torino was suggested, as well. However, the real world interfered in making the Mustang Detroit's first import. According to the author, Henry Ford II was getting a divorce, and his future wife was Italian. It was therefore thought to be a bad idea to sell the future pony car as being from Italy. Things clearly changed by the time the Torino hit the streets years later. Related Video:

Trump tells Detroit 3 CEOs he wants more US jobs, calls environmentalists 'out of control'

Tue, Jan 24 2017

As expected, President Donald J. Trump met with top executives from FCA, Ford, and General Motors this morning as part of a larger push to generate jobs in America. "I want new plants to be built here for cars sold here!", Trump said in a tweet ahead of the meeting. Not everything said in the meeting was made public, but the President later tweeted that he had a "Great meeting with automobile industry leaders." FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne, Ford chief Mark Fields, and GM's Mary Barra all echoed the positive vibes after the meeting. In a statement, Barra called the discussion "very constructive and wide-ranging," adding that it focused on "policies that support a strong and competitive economy and auto industry," and "that supports the environment and safety." That's noteworthy, because Trump is reported to have said "I am to a large extent an environmentalist. I believe in it, but it's out of control." Fields, speaking to reporters after the meeting, said, "We're excited about working together with the president and his administration on tax policies, on regulation and on trade to really create a renaissance in American manufacturing." The Ford CEO was specifically talking about Trump's withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership. "We've repeatedly said that the mother of all trade barriers is currency manipulation, and TPP failed in meaningfully dealing with that, and we appreciate the president's courage to walk away from a bad trade deal," he said. Marchionne focused on American manufacturing in his statement after the meeting. "I appreciate the President's focus on making the US a great place to do business. We look forward to working with President Trump and members of Congress to strengthen American manufacturing." Perhaps equally as interesting as what was said and who was invited are what wasn't said and who wasn't invited. Trump has been very vocal about his distaste for US automakers' plants in Mexico, but no mention was made of the North American Free Trade Agreement by Trump or any of the Detroit CEOs after the meeting. We also have to wonder if Trump plans to meet with representatives from German, Japanese, and Korean automakers that have made massive investments into American plants and produce a large number of cars in this country.

Ford to ramp up Lincoln rollout in China in bid to catch rivals

Thu, Apr 12 2018

DETROIT/BEIJING — Ford Motor Co's premium Lincoln brand plans to build as many as five new vehicles in China by 2022, according to two U.S. sources, in a move to expand sales in the world's largest vehicle market that would also blunt the impact of trade U.S.-China trade spats. Ford has said it plans to build an all-new sport utility vehicle in China by the end of 2019, however the company has not detailed future production plans for the Lincoln brand in China beyond that. "Our localization plans to support the China market are on track and will serve to further drive Lincoln's growth in China," Lincoln spokeswoman Angie Kozleski said. "Beyond that, it would be premature to discuss our future product and production plans or timing." Sources familiar with Ford's production plans told Reuters the automaker now expects to begin building the new Lincoln Aviator in China in late 2019 or early 2020, along with replacements for the MKC compact crossover and the MKZ midsize sedan, followed in 2021 by the all-new Nautilus, which replaces the Lincoln MKX crossover. A fifth model, a small coupe-like crossover, is tentatively slated for production in China in 2022, the sources said. Ford has much to lose if the war of words over trade between China and U.S. President Donald Trump escalates into a full-blown tariff war. Last year, it shipped about 80,000 vehicles to China from North America, more than half of them Lincolns to support the brand's growth. All Lincoln vehicles that Ford now sells in China are brought in from North America. Even if China does reduce its 25 percent tariff on imported vehicles - as Chinese President Xi Jinping promised on Tuesday - it is not clear that would mean a big, long-term increase in Fords and Lincolns made in U.S. factories heading to Chinese showrooms. Ford is pursuing long-range plans to build more vehicles in China to serve a market that is now roughly 60 percent larger than the U.S. market, and projected to keep growing. But it is playing catch up to hometown rival General Motors Co and German luxury brands including Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz, which have invested heavily in Chinese production in recent years as a form of insurance against trade, political and currency gyrations and to lower price points for their premium cars.
