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.

How new car shortages may impact your buying experience
Wed, 04 Sep 2013If you want further proof that the auto industry is bouncing back, look no further than the empty lots and forecourts of your local dealership. According to a story by The Wall Street Journal, continued high demand for mainstream cars is overtaxing automakers' ability to produce enough models. Several dealers interviewed for the story are reporting two-week supplies as opposed to the typical two-month allocations.
With sales expected to hit 1.4 million units when August numbers arrive shortly and incentive spending down to its lowest amount since January, these limited supplies are pushing prices even higher. For example, according to the WSJ, the average price of a Ford Fusion is up past $26,000. Unfortunately, it's difficult for manufacturers to increase production quickly. If it invests in its facilities, as many manufacturers have done, it risks wasting cash if growth suddenly slows. At the same time, the momentum gained over the past several years could be short lived if vehicle supplies continue to dwindle. "Manufacturers are in a precarious situation," notes Karl Brauer, a senior director at Kelley Blue Book.
Low interest rates and a wealth of desirable features are also allowing customers to purchase more expensive vehicles while justifying their higher overall price tags, a situation that is compounding supply shortages. Even now, during the annual end-of-summer clearance season, deals on new vehicles are remarkably difficult to come by. According to the report, the Toyota Corolla is in a self-inflicted state of shortage, as Toyota clears out inventory in anticipation of the new 2014 generation arriving in dealers. Ford's supplies should rebound as Fusion production comes on line at its Flat Rock, Michigan factory. The Chevrolet Impala, Honda Odyssey, Civic, and Accord and Subaru Forester are also facing shortages.
Ford trademarking 'Mach 1,' possibly for Mustang
Thu, 24 Oct 2013A legendary name might be accompanying the redesigned, 2015 Mustang when it finally makes its world debut - Mach 1. Stumbled upon by the team at Ford Authority, the Mach 1 title was found in a trademark filing with the US Patent and Trademark Office, and would revive a name last used on the fourth-generation, 2003 Mustang.
While the the 2003 vintage was well and good, the Mach 1 is really remembered for a three-year run from 1969 to 1971 - it's best to just forget the emissions-choked 1972 to 1978 Mach 1s - when power output ranged from a modest 250 horsepower with the two-barrel, 351-cubic-inch Windsor V8 to "375 hp" (actual output was rumored to be well north of 400 horsepower) with the righteous, 429-cubic-inch Super Cobra Jet V8.
What does the title hold for the sixth-generation Mustang? It's tough to say. The fanatics at Ford Authority seem to think Mach 1 could take the place of the Shelby GT500 at the top of the Mustang hierarchy, which sounds like a valid argument. At the same time, we could see the SVT Cobra moniker returning for the flagship model, and the Mach 1 doing battle with the Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 (unless the Boss 302 were to return). Confounding things is the historical precedent - the Mach 1 was responsible for the death of the Mustang GT in 1969, so it might make sense as a volume performance model.
Volvo to shake off Ford ties with new platforms, engines
Sat, 23 Feb 2013
It would seem Volvo is finally getting around to throwing all of Ford's things out of the apartment. Automotive News reports the Swedish automaker is preparing to unleash a range of new engines as well as a fresh platform designed entirely in house. The powerplants include an all-new four-cylinder engine set to bow before the end of this year before arriving in the US by 2014. Shortly thereafter, the world should get its first glimpse at the next-generation XC60, which will the company's first model to make use of the Volvo scalable platform architecture (SPA). US buyers can expect to see that machine on their roads by early 2015.
The next V70 and S80 will also use the SPA, though those models will carry V90 and S90 designations when they hit dealer floors. But that doesn't mean Volvo has completely weened itself off of Ford technology. The V40 will continue to ride on Ford bones until the model's next chassis can be co-developed between Volvo and Geely.
