NO RESERVE ***************** NO RESERVE Vehicle Auctions (First time bidders see note at bottom) This is a 1998 Ford Explorer seized by the Sheriff as a result of a forfeiture. The answers to questions requesting additional information will be posted on the item description as the auction progresses. Here is what I know: The vehicle is a 4.0 liter 6 cylinder with 180,000 miles on the odometer. The engine seems to run well. Sounds good. The tires are in good condition. Flaws. The vehicle needs to be jump started. Since it’s been sitting awhile, the battery will need to be replaced. Some rust which should be visible in a photo. Keep in mind we have no history of the vehicle other than it was being driven when it was seized. Since then it has sat in storage. Good luck. FORFEITED VEHICLES/SHERIFF’S SALES The Sherburne County Sheriff’s Office currently disposes of forfeited vehicles through public auction on eBay. The vehicles are listed with no reserve price, meaning the highest bidder wins the auction. Auctions typically start at $100.00. Vehicles are forfeited for a wide variety of reasons, from drunk driving to drug sales or fleeing a police officer. The vehicles also display a wide range of maintenance and repair (or disrepair, as the case may be). The Sheriff’s Office does not have a mechanic, nor do we claim to know anything about vehicle maintenance. For that reason, you are strongly encouraged to view the vehicle in person or arrange for someone to look at the vehicle for you prior to sale. While the department will make every effort to note each defect or characteristic to help you make an informed purchase decision we simply don’t know cars to the level of detail that has been requested in some of the auctions held since the department started using eBay in 2002. Bottom line, if the vehicle was being driven at the time it was seized we’ll tell you. From the time it comes into our possession, it gets towed or moved by flatbed. We don’t drive the vehicles. As such, we can’t attest to their operability. As each vehicle listed for auction on eBay was forfeited, it is unregistered and unlicensed. Both details must be taken care of before the vehicle can be driven off the lot. Out-of-state buyers can purchase 31-day permits for $11.00 at the local license bureau, which would allow the vehicle to be driven. Minnesota residents must handle license and registration transfer prior to the vehicle being driven. The local license bureau office (5 minutes away) is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. As for the title, when we seize a vehicle a rather lengthy paper chase begins. The end result of that paper chase is that the Sheriff’s Office becomes the legal owner of the vehicle and our name is on the title. We do not begin an auction until we have that title in our possession. At the end of the auction, the title is transferred from us to you. You will leave our office with the vehicle, keys and the title in hand. PLEASE NOTE: 1. Unless otherwise stated, the condition of this vehicle is unknown. 2. This item is being offered "AS-IS, WHERE-IS" with no warranty or other guarantee as to its condition or fitness for use. As mentioned above, we don’t drive the vehicles and can’t attest to their operability. 3. We do not ship vehicles and all transactions must be in person. 4. Purchaser is responsible for transportation to and from the Sherburne County Government Center in Elk River, MN. 5. Unless otherwise specified, vehicle will be available for public inspection/pick-up at 13880 Business Center Drive, Elk River, MN 55330 weekdays from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM Central Standard Time. 6. Full Payment is due within 7 calendar days from the end of auction. 7. None of our vehicles come with license plates. Purchaser should check with local license bureau for licensing requirements. 8. Vehicle listed is offered on a competitive bid basis and must be removed within 20 calendar days from the end of auction. Because of malicious buyers I cancel all bids of buyers with a (0) rating. If you have a (0) rating you must contact me to bid. |

Ford recalls 277,000 Super Duty trucks over foggy rear-view camera
Thu, Sep 1 2022Ford has issued a recall that applies to around 277,000 units of the Super Duty pickup built between the 2017 and 2020 model years. The campaign also includes about 13,000 units of the Lincoln Continental, and it aims to fix an issue that makes the rear-view camera foggy. Assigned recall number 22V-644 by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the recall includes 139,131 units of the F-250, 109,960 units of the F-350, 14,830 units of the F-450, and 13,119 units of the Continental. The affected trucks are all fitted with the Ultimate Trailer Tow Camera system and were built between November 12, 2015, and March 10, 2020, while the affected Lincoln models are equipped with the 360-degree camera and were made from November 30, 2015 to March 10, 2020. Ford explains "degradation of the coating on an internal rear-view camera lens can lead to a progressively foggy or cloudy image." It adds ultraviolet radiation causes the problem and that this issue increases the risk of an accident, though it's not aware of accidents or injuries. Owners of affected cars and trucks who have already paid to get the issue fixed have until September 30, 2022, to ask Ford for a refund. The company will begin notifying customers about the recall by mail on September 12, 2022, and it will ask them to take their vehicle to the nearest authorized dealer to get the rear-view camera replaced free of charge.

Which of these high-powered pickup classics would you choose?
Fri, Apr 17 2020High-performance pickups would appear to be having a moment on the auction site Bring a Trailer, with two tempting examples up for auction right now: a 1971 Ford Ranchero GT and a 1991 GMC Syclone. These trucks are a generation apart, but they each represent the peak muscle truck of their time. The Ranchero, of course, was Ford's car-based pickup, and Ford took advantage of its Torino roots by offering the same ultra-high-performance 429 Cobra Jet V8 in the Ranchero as it did in the Torino-branded coupes and convertibles. The 429 V8 in this truck is said to be numbers-matching, and it looks the business topped with an air scoop poking through the hood. It's paired with a three-speed automatic and a limited slip differential, reportedly one of only 82 1971-model Rancheros with this powertrain combo. As a Ranchero GT, this example sports hidden headlights, and the dual sport mirrors and vinyl top further establish its kinship with its passenger-car siblings. A set of factory Magnum 500 wheels and a respray in the original red add to the muscle-truck vibe. Two decades later, car-based pickups were dead, so when GMC decided to revive the muscle-truck genre it did so with the mid-size Sonoma. The resulting Syclone put a more modern spin on the fast-pickup idea (and on the spelling of "cyclone"). This hi-po hauler uses a 4.3-liter V6 topped with a Mitsubishi turbocharger that helped it make 280 horsepower. It's mated to a floor-shifted four-speed automatic and a Borg-Warner all-wheel-drive system with a 35/65 torque split. The Syclone was a one-year-only model, of which just under 3,000 were built. All were black with matching cloth seats with red accents. The only other '71 Ranchero to appear on BaT was a non-original GT with a 351ci V8 that was a no-sale at $7,900. This Ranchero is already nearly double that figure. Of the four previously Syclones that have crossed BaT's virtual auction block, two have sold, for $36,000 and $50,000, but both had lower miles than this truck. At this writing, these two trucks are neck-and-neck, both in the mid teens with both auctions set to end April 23. Which powerhouse pickup makes you want to put your money down?
