For sale is our 2003 Expedition XLT 4X4.  We purchased this vehicle 5 years ago from our neighbor who used it to commute about 70 miles round trip daily for work.  She took great care of it. That's why it has high mileage.  The reason we are selling it is because our kids are off to college and we downsized to an  Escape.  This vehicle is in very good condition and has always been maintained and garaged.  The transmission has been flushed and maintained regularly and it shifts and runs out flawlessly.  All the coil on plug ignition coils have been replaced since we purchased the vehicle and it runs great and used no oil.  It has no leaks.  We had a 3"/2" Ready Lift leveling kit professionally installed.  This style lift has no negative affect on the ride or tire geometry.  It only levels it and lifts it a couple inches.  It looks much better and gives it a more aggressive stance.  We also installed Ford OEM 20" wheels and new 305/60R20 Goodyear Wrangler tires.  You may also notice that we removed the OEM running boards.  We still have them and they're in great shape.  We just liked the look better without them.  I have one picture on here with them still installed so you can see what they looked like.  They go with the vehicle or we can put them back on for you if you like.  Everything works on this vehicle.  It rides and drives like new. The A/C is cold and the forward and rear A/C controls all work.  This is the first year of the fold away rear seats and they are much nicer than those on the 97-2002 Expedition.  Plus the extra legroom in the third row make its very comfortable for adults.  My boys are 6'3" and 6'5" and they fit back there fine.  It's also a split rear seat so cargo/people carrying is very flexible.  We had the 10" DVD system professionally installed and there are 3 sets of wireless headphones.  We installed a performance muffler because I like a little exhaust rumble.  It sound great outside but has no annoying drone inside.  It has a brake controller because our neighbor occasionally pulled a pop up camper.  It has the factory tow package and 3.73 gear ratio.  It has the keyless entry key pad which is very convenient.  We have all the original manuals and key fobs and we have all weather Husky floor liners for the first two rows of seats. 

The only issues it has are cosmetic.  The very front of the hood has a small dent in it from hitting a turkey buzzard on the highway.  Instead of getting it fixed and trying to match the paint, I installed the bug deflector to conceal it.  I have a pic showing this.  The other thing is the rear hatch.  You can see from the picture of the back of the vehicle some paint bubbling.  This is NOT rust because the back hatch on these is aluminum so it can't rust.  It was a paint defect from the factory that many of these vehicles have.  It's been that way since we've had it and, again, I chose not to do anything with it because it would be hard to match the paint and it's not hurting anything as is.

Don't let the mileage worry you.  Our last Expy was a 1997 and it had 220,000 miles on it when we sold it.  It's still on the road with the man we sold it to years ago with the same engine and transmission.  This was our family vehicle up until we got the Escape.  It's road ready and can be taken anywhere any time without worry.  I'm a fanatic when it comes to taking care of my stuff.  In fact, I drive my family crazy because I'm so picky with my vehicles.  It's not a new vehicle but it's very nice inside and out for its age.  Contact me if you have any other questions.

Ford launches pair of recalls affecting fullsize sedans and Transit Connect van

Wed, Jan 28 2015

Ford has announced a pair of pretty significant recalls affecting the 2010-2013 Ford Taurus and Police Interceptor, as well as their platform-mate, the Lincoln MKS. A separate recall covers the 2014 Transit Connect. The fullsize sedans include 205,000 vehicles built at Chicago Assembly over a variety of timeframes, ranging between December 1, 2009 and November 30, 2012. The vehicles, 194,889 of which were sold in the United States, have an issue with the spring controls on the interior door handles that could cause the door to open in a side-impact crash. The Transit Connect recall, meanwhile, includes 16,100 vans built between November 6, 2013 and September 20,2014 at the company's Valencia, Spain factory. In these vehicles, the seatbelt fasteners may not have been tightened properly, which could cause them to loosen over time, a condition that's obviously bad news in the event of a crash. Ford says it is not aware of any accidents, injuries or crashes in either recall. Owners will, of course, be notified and asked to report in for inspections and if necessary, free replacements. Scroll down for the full press release from Ford, which includes the complete breakdown of dates during which the affected sedans were built in Chicago. JAN 28, 2015 | DEARBORN, MICH. FORD ISSUES TWO SAFETY RECALLS Ford is issuing two safety recalls. No accidents or injuries are attributed to either of these conditions. Details are as follows: Ford issues safety recall for certain 2010-2013 Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS and Ford Police Interceptor sedans for interior door handle issue Ford is issuing a safety recall for approximately 205,000 2010-2013 Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS and Ford Police Interceptor sedans due to an issue with the spring that controls the interior door handles. If the spring is unseated, the door may become unlatched in a side-impact crash, increasing the risk of injury. Ford is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this condition. Affected vehicles include certain 2010-2013 Ford Taurus vehicles built Dec. 1, 2009 to July 31, 2010 and Feb. 1, 2011 to Nov. 30, 2012 at Chicago Assembly Plant; certain 2010-2013 Lincoln MKS vehicles built June 2, 2011 to Oct. 31, 2011 at Chicago Assembly Plant; and certain 2010-2013 Ford Police Interceptor sedans built Dec. 1, 2009 to July 31, 2010 and Feb. 1, 2011 to Nov. 30, 2012 at Chicago Assembly Plant.

Ford 3D-printing Mustang out of chocolate and candy for Valentine's Day

Thu, 13 Feb 2014

Is your beloved in love with the new 2015 Ford Mustang? Do they like chocolate (that's a trick question - everyone likes chocolate)? Are they a bit of a futurist? Then this Hallmark holiday, you need to get them this Ford Mustang, 3D-printed in sweet, delicious chocolate.
Ford is teaming with 3D Systems' Sugar Lab in LA to produce the super-accurate pony car confections in both chocolate and sugar candy varieties. The process kicked off with a CAD rendering of the 2015 Mustang, which was then programmed into the 3D printer. After a bit of work from the machine, a four-inch long, two-inch tall Mustang was the result. Why the tieup with 3D Systems, though?
"We wanted to create something fun to show that while 3D printing made these edible Mustangs, manufacturing-level 3D printing was used in the development of Ford's all-new sports car," said Paul Susalla, Ford's supervisor of 3D printing.

Second-tier UAW workers promoted for first time after Ford hits quota

Mon, Feb 2 2015

The United Auto Workers put out a statement on Friday that 55 Ford workers chosen by seniority would be moved from the Tier 2, entry-level pay rate of around $19 per hour to the Tier 1, non-entry-level rate of about $28 per hour. One of the stipulations in the 2011 UAW-Ford agreement was that only 20-percent of the total hourly workforce could be paid the Tier 2 wages agreed upon in 2007; after that, those workers had to be moved to Tier 1. Even so, the new Tier 1 status makes them less expensive to Ford than veteran Tier 1 workers because they receive fewer benefits. However, Automotive News had reported that same day that Ford was 69 workers shy of the limit, and when AN asked Ford about the situation Ford said it had "some room" on the entry-level roster. If workers do move to the higher pay grade, it will be the first time that's happened since the two-tier system was agreed. But it sounds like there's going to be some haggling between the UAW and Ford before that happens. Ford is the only one of the Detroit 3 automakers to have to work with a cap, since it didn't go through bankruptcy proceedings during The Great Recession; General Motors and Chrysler jettisoned the cap in 2009. GM is said to have 16 percent of its hourly workers at Tier 2 while Chrysler has 42 percent, but Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has long been opposed to the two-wage system. The UAW is preparing for its 2015 negotiations with the US automakers. It wants to eliminate the difference in pay by going to the higher scale, if there is a consensus among automakers it seems to be that they also want a single wage, but less than the higher scale, with the addition of profit-based bonuses. The recent statement from the labor union is below. UAW President Dennis Williams and UAW-Ford Vice President Jimmy Settles announced today that the union is delivering on its promise to convert workers DETROIT, Jan. 30, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- UAW President Dennis Williams and UAW-Ford Vice President Jimmy Settles announced today that the union is delivering on its promise to convert workers making entry-level wages to traditional employees. "The 2011 UAW-Ford agreement allows for a contractual limit of entry-level employees. Once that threshold is surpassed, entry-level employees convert by seniority to 'regular, non-entry level employment.' At this time, fifty-five UAW-Ford workers will receive the wage increases, which put them in the category of non entry-level employment.
