For your consideration. Ford 1996 Explorer XLT V8 AWD. Always a southern vehicle, never seen road salt. Needs some engine work. Transmission shifts smooth. The vehicle will start and run, but overheats and runs rough. I never took it in to a mechanic, so I have no idea what could be the problem. Take a close look at the pictures. The battery is from 2008, so it might need one soon. This will sell AS-IS and I have disclosed all the know defects with this vehicle. It ran strong and dependable until last week. This SUV had good power and sounded great with Magnaflow cat-back exhaust system. Great buy for a mechanic. 


ATTENTION - YOU CAN START THE ENGINE AND RUN IT - BUT WILL NEED TO BE TOWED OR TRANSPORTED. 

The Exterior >> Tires good. New brake pads and rotors front and rear. New radiator. Body fair condition with no rust out. Custom aluminum billet grill. Aluminum alloy wheels. Drivers side tail light assembly broken, but have new in box replacement (see pictures) that will include with the vehicle. Drivers side electric window does not work. Small scratches and dings normal for year. A few small paint spots peeling, but overall the body is solid and looks good. Magnaflow cat-back exhaust that sounds good. Has Trailer Hitch, but I never towed with it.

Interior >> Leather seats. Drivers seat has rips and has a cover on it. Has been smoked in before and has a few burn marks. All gauges work, but the odometer was broken when I purchased 2 year ago. Odometer stuck on 158000 (mileage is unknown). Air conditioning worked last summer, but it needs a charge now to get colder.

I have a clear Georgia Title. Winning bidder will need to pay in full within 7 days.  Deposit PayPal only. Arrangements to transport or tow the vehicle will be done by the buyer, but I will coordinate with your arrangements as best I can. I have sold several vehicles on eBay, and the transport  car carriers will pick the vehicle up at my house.  I will cooperate and be available to the transport service you choose.

Good luck bidding and thank you for looking !

Ford Police Interceptor with 2.0L EcoBoost rated most fuel-efficient police sedan

Tue, 26 Nov 2013

Back in September, Ford announced a non-pursuit version of its Police Interceptor Sedan, which swaps out a choice of two V6 engines for a fuel-efficient 2.0-liter EcoBoost inline four-cylinder. This Special Service Police Sedan will be marketed to law enforcement agencies looking to cut fuel costs and don't need the extra power.
For college campuses, detectives and the like, this new police car has now been certified with EPA fuel economy estimates of 20 miles per gallon in the city, 32 mpg on the highway and a combined rating of 24 mpg. These figures represent a decrease of two mpg in city and combined ratings compared to the civilian-spec 2014 Taurus. These police cars still offer active grille shutters for better aerodynamics, although we're guessing agencies upfitting their cars with light bars and push bumpers aren't exactly concerted with aerodynamics. The true benefit of the SSP version is when it's compared against other police sedan options like the Dodge Charger, Chevy Impala, Chevy Caprice and even the V6 Police Interceptor Sedan.
Ford claims the new Police Interceptor Sedan SSP is the most fuel-efficient current option for police departments, saying that this car can save $1,720 per car over three years and almost $260,000 over the same span of time for fleets with 150 vehicles. There is an official press release posted below, and also check out the gallery of images from Ford collected from various police agencies across the US (although none show the 2.0-liter SSP model). Head on over to Ford's Police Interceptor mini-site for even more pictures of the Police Interceptor Sedan and Utility.

Ford Transit gets outfitted for prison duty

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

Between the Taurus-based Police Interceptor, the Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility and the F-150 and Expedition special service vehicles, Ford has no lack of offerings for law enforcement. And now it has one more in the form of the new Transit PTV.
Based on the fullsize Transit van, the Prisoner Transport Vehicle can move as many as 12 prisoners in three separate compartments between detention facilities. Created in collaboration with Pennsylvania-based Havis Prisoner Transport Solutions and with input from Ford's Police Advisory Board, the Transit PTV takes advantage of the Transit's considerable configuration options that include three roof heights, two wheelbases, three lengths and four body-styles - not to mention engine options that include the flex-fuel 3.7-liter V6, 3.5-liter EcoBoost and 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel.
"Transit PTV is the latest example of Ford's deep commitment to helping provide law enforcement agencies with capable vehicles. This concept proves Transit is upfit-ready and designed to Built Ford Tough standards," said Jonathan Honeycutt, Ford police marketing manager. "Many Police Advisory Board members have had the chance to drive this vehicle and they are excited about it. This new vehicle is tough, smart and efficient - ideal for the needs of law enforcement agencies."

Ford Mustang GT350 seen and heard in motion for the first time

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

We just recently saw our first spy shots of the next-gen hi-po Ford Mustang slated to replace the Shelby GT500, but now we're getting our first look - and listen - of prototypes captured on video. Mustang6g.com has the video (along with some different spy shots), which show that, if nothing else, SVT knows how to tune an exhaust system. The :50 mark is a good example of this, but fast-forward to around 2:00 where the driver revs the engine and really gets on the throttle hard taking off from a stop.
There's still no definitive evidence that the next-gen SVT Mustang - said to be called GT350 - will be naturally aspirated, but it sounds just as menacing as the current Shelby GT500. While the video posted below exhibits the sort of quality that is to be expected from someone driving while trying to film someone who is attempting to elude being filmed, it's still exciting to see and hear this new Mustang in motion.
