THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN A DAILY DRIVER AND VERY DEPENDABLE. I PURCHASED A NEW F-150 3 MONTHS AGO AND CAN'T STAND TO SEE IT SIT. I START IT ABOUT EVERY OTHER WEEK AND RUN IT FOR ABOUT A HALF HOUR JUST TO KEEP THE ENGINE LUBED UP. IT NEEDS TIRES IMMEDIATELY, AND THE LAST TIME I STARTED IT, I NOTICED THE WATER PUMP HAS A LEAK, SO IT WILL NEED REPLACED SOON, PROBABLY FROM SITTING AND GASKETS DRYING OUT. I AM SETTING THE RESERVE PRICE WITH TIRES AND WATER PUMP IN MIND. IF I REPLACE THEM BEFORE THE END OF THE AUCTION I WILL RAISE RESERVE. THE REASON I BOUGHT THE F-150 WAS BECAUSE I BOUGHT A LARGE BOAT ON EBAY AND I REFUSE TO ABUSE THE EXPLORER BY PULLING IT. BUT NOW THAT I HAVE THE NEW TRUCK THE EXPLORER IS JUST SITTING BECAUSE I DO NOT HAVE TIME FOR IT. A CLEAN CAR FOR ITS AGE AND HAS ALL THE OPTIONS AVAILABLE AT THE TIME, INCLUDING REAR AC. MOST OF THE TIME THAT I OWNED IT SINCE 2004, THE REAR SEATS WERE FOLDED DOWN, SO THEY SHOW NO WEAR. THE FRONT IS IN REALLY GOOD SHAPE AND THE CARGO AREA IS AS WELL. SOME IDIOT HIT AND RUN THE DRIVERS DOOR AT MY WORK PLACE, AND AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICS, THAT DAMAGE IS SO MINIMAL THAT YOU CAN GET BY WITHOUT DOING ANYTHING FOR A WHILE. I PUT A COAT OF PRIMER AND A COAT OF SPRAY PAINT ON IT TO KEEP IT FROM RUSTING UNTIL I HAD TIME TO DEAL WITH IT... OBVIOUSLY I NEVER GOT THE TIME TO DEAL WITH IT. THE GADGETS ALL WORK, BUT THE LEATHERETTE COVER OVER THE SWITCHES (ON THE STEERING WHEEL) HAS CRACKED AND SOME PIECES HAVE COME OUT (ALSO VISIBLE IN PICS), BUT THE SWITCHES STILL OPERATE PROPERLY. PLEASE EMAIL IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS OR WANT AN APPT TO DRIVE OR LOOK AT HER. GREAT CAR, BUT NEEDS SOMEONE THAT WILL DRIVE HER.

Ford to kick off F-150 campaign during College Football Playoff
Tue, Dec 30 2014The long-awaited inaugural College Football Playoff will feature the nation's best college teams, with the Oregon Ducks taking on the Florida State Seminoles, and Alabama Crimson Tide facing some team from Ohio. On top of that, though, it'll also see the launch of the very first advertising campaign for the 2015 Ford F-150. Viewers from across the country will see a trio of ads featuring the all-aluminum truck, with two half-minute spots and a full 60-second commercial, all voiced by Denis Leary, touting the F-150's feature set and towing capacity, but passing on mentioning the new truck's class-leading fuel economy. That, Automotive News reports, isn't a miscue by Ford. The company simply didn't have enough time between the EPA's fuel economy announcement and the 2014-2015 Bowl Season to prepare a spot. Expect plenty on the F-150's fuel efficiency in future spots. Interestingly, though, AN is reporting future F-150 advertising won't include a Super Bowl appearance. Ford has made the decision to focus its new truck ads on college football rather than during the NFL championship. "From our point of view, there's no bigger stage to debut the F-150 creative than the College Football Playoff," Keith Koeppen, Ford's US marketing communications boss, told AN. "It's so closely aligned with the passions of our customer." It's those passions that are pushing Ford to kick off its ad campaign for a new truck so much earlier. Speaking to AN, Doug Scott, Ford's truck marketing manager, said that the automaker typically doesn't begin ad campaigns until its dealers have at least a fifty-fifty mix of old and new models, but that it's pushing the 2015 F-150's ads to fit with the college football playoffs. While Ford's focus is on the two semifinal playoff games on New Year's Day and the National Championship Game on January 12, the ads will actually air for the first time on New Year's Eve, when the TCU Horned Frogs face off against the Ole Miss Rebels in the Peach Bowl. The three spots will also be shown during other bowl games, as well.

Ford sued over alleged 3.5-liter EcoBoost defects
Thu, 16 May 2013Three Ford owners from Ohio have filed a lawsuit against the automaker over defects that they allege exist within the company's twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost engine. Automotive News reports that the lawsuit claims the engine "contained serious latent design, manufacturing, or assembly defects." Those defects, the suit claims, cause the vehicle to shake, misfire and lose power quickly.
Two of the plaintiffs, a married couple, own a 2010 Ford Taurus SHO, and allege they experienced a loss of power and stalling, while the third, an F-150 owner, claims he lost power while accelerating. In addition to the Taurus SHO and F-150, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost engine is also available in the Ford Flex, Explorer Sport and Lincoln MKT and MKS. Other three- and four-cylinder EcoBoost engines are not included in the suit. There have been no recalls associated with 3.5-liter V6 engine, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is currently not investigating the matter.
The plaintiffs, however, claim Ford has known about the problem, citing several technical service bulletins issued to dealers of the F-150 that suggest possible fixes. Ford had no comment for Automotive News, saying that it's yet to review the lawsuit, which was filed last Friday in Columbus, OH.
2015 Ford Focus sedan shows its fresh face in New York
Wed, 16 Apr 2014That handsome fellow you see above is the 2015 Ford Focus sedan. We liked the looks of the 2014 Focus, and the updates for 2015 only improve things to our eyes, with the adoption of the Aston Martin-inspired grille that has been permeating Ford's lineup these last few years. Sweeping, slightly bulbous headlamps join a revised, more demure lower grille opening to round out the styling updates up front. The rest of the car's look is just slightly massaged, including new taillamp clusters that look much like they did last year.
New for 2015 is the availability of Ford's 1.0-liter three-cylinder EcoBoost engine, mated exclusively to a six-speed manual transmission. There's also a new SE Sport Package that adds more aggressive suspension tuning, paddle shifters (when equipped with Ford's six-speed dual-clutch automatic) and a few body kit bits and pieces. Rounding out the mechanical changes are an updated electronic steering rack that promises better feel, suspension tweaks to make the ride more comfortable and some software updates designed to make the dual-clutch gearbox better behave itself.
In addition, inside there are a few interior upgrades, as well as some added comfort and safety tech that includes available blind-spot detection and lane-keeping assist, along with other more incremental changes that all add up to a better vehicle. We suggest you check out the official press release below for all the details, but not before scrolling through our image gallery of live shots above.
