A Fantastic Beast: 2005 Ford Expedition Xlt Sport Utility 4-door 5.4l on 2040-cars
What can I say about this beast? It's a great and reliable vehicle. In great condition for its year and mileage. Say what you like about Ford, but my last vehicle was a Ford and lasted to more than 170,000 miles. The ONLY mechanical issue I've had with the car since I've had it is a spark plug needed to be replaced. Otherwise, I have maintained the the truck well and with care and oil change/check up every 3,000 miles. I put brand new tires on the truck this past fall, less than 6 months ago -and not the cheapo ones.
I am really going to miss driving this thing, but I need to downsize because it just doesn't make sense for a single guy with a long commute. I have had the Ford Expedition for a little more than a year and actually trading in for a smart car -ha! This is a great vehicle for a family, organization, or someone who needs some cargo space. It seats 8...that means driver and passenger in the front, 3 seats in the middle and 3 seats in the third row. The back row and middle row fold down practically flat to allow for a very large cargo, capable of hauling a full sized couch with the rear door/trunk closed. The leather seats are all in great condition. There is quite a bit of interior storage, and an additional mirror above the windshield mirror so you can keep an eye on what's going on in the truck behind you. This vehicle is very clean inside and out, and very sharp. It has a very modern look for the year. And it's fun to drive, you'll feel like king (or queen) of the road. Email with any questions. This is a great truck! |

Toyota sells six of 10 of hybrids in California
Wed, 31 Jul 2013In an apparent shot back at Ford's increasing market share of electrified vehicles and claim that it accepts more Prius trade-ins for its own hybrids than any other car, Toyota has flexed a muscle and played the numbers game to put the Blue Oval in its place.
Leaning on its hybrid market dominance in California, the Japanese automaker stated that six out of 10 hybrids sold in the Golden State are Toyota models. And it keeps coming: Year-to-date through May 2013, Toyota sold five times more hybrids than Ford. One of every two hybrids in California is a Prius model. In addition, Toyota notes that it has sold 1.5 million Prius vehicles in the US, 90-percent of which are still on the road today.

Ford updates Power Stroke diesel V8, strengthens F-450, tweaks King Ranch
Thu, 26 Sep 2013Ford is giving its F-Series Super Duty trucks some upgrades for 2015, and we're happy to say that one of them is an improved Power Stroke diesel V8. Also, Ford is strengthening the top-of-the-line F-450 to handle more abuse. And if wild west-style luxury is your thing, the automaker has performed minor cosmetic updates to its King Ranch Edition trucks, as well.
The turbocharged 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 is currently rated at 400 horsepower and 800 pound-feet of torque, and Ford only tells us the new and improved Power Stroke can "produce power beyond today's" engine. What, then, did Ford actually improve upon? First, the Blue Oval swapped in a new, larger turbocharger. The new Garrett GT37 turbine unit is 72.5 millimeters in diameter, eclipsing the old GT32's 64-mm diameter piece. Ford states output increases with the new turbo setup, but since the new turbocharger operates at a lower peak pressure than the old one, the automaker was able to eliminate the wastegate system and reduce the engine's complexity. Ford even redesigned the turbo's oil and cooling lines to make the powerplant simpler. A byproduct of the larger turbo is better engine exhaust braking, which is controlled manually by a button on the dashboard.
Ford claims the upgraded diesel engine is more powerful, more robust, more efficient and more refined than before.
Ford Transit customs ready to work for SEMA
Fri, 31 Oct 2014Ford's booth at the SEMA Show this year looks to have two, big themes. The Blue Oval is bringing over a dozen takes on the 2015 Mustang to the event, and it's now also announcing five customized versions on the 2015 Transit to join the modded pony cars. Each of the vans shows off a different use for the spacious commercial vehicle, from plush luxury to offroad ruggedness.
You probably don't think of the Transit as hitting the trails, but that's just what the take on the design from the Vegas Off-Road Experience (pictured above) is for. The company gives people the opportunity to drive a desert race truck, and this custom is meant to drive them to events. It should be able to take on the terrain a little better with off-road wheels and tires and fender flares, but inside passengers get serious luxury thanks to a 60-inch LED TV and video game systems.
Alternatively the blazing red Designed Travel Transit (right) is all about long road trips. The interior features four captain's chairs with heating, cooling and massage functions, and there's a 4K 50-inch TV to watch. For a touch of added class, the floor is made from hickory.
