2002 Ford Explorer Xls V.8 4.6 Fwd on 2040-cars
Columbus, Ohio, United States

Hi there,
I have a 2002 Ford explorer XLS V8 4.6 liter ABS 4 Wheel Drive SUV for sale. I bought it in July of 2012. I bought it knowing it needed, brakes, and an exhaust, and there was a small crack in the window so I got a pretty good deal on it. I decided since I was getting new brakes and an exhaust I had them see if there may be any future problems. They informed be that I would eventually need a rack and pinion so I went ahead and got that fixed too. I got all 6 catalletic converters rebuilt and after rear ending someone in a (thankfully) small slow accident sliding on snow at a stop light the grill and parts of the hood got a little broke up. That I did not fix. It's only cosmetic but there did seem to be a problem with my transmission slipping. So I decided to go ahead and get that all rebuilt also. So most of the engine is either new or rebuilt. The 2 problems left are cosmetic. The dents on the front and the grill, and having to manually open and close the hood. It was my perfect second car for work and to take everyone camping. its got 144,000 miles on it. Not bad for a 12 year old car. Things I love about it: Power: Steering, windows f/b, power mirrors, power LEATHER seats. anit lock breaks tilt wheel privacy tinted back windows cruise control air conditioner in front and back dual air bags 3rd row seating that can be folded down to either sleep in while camping or store groceries luggage roof top racks running boards automatic am/fm radio cassette player CD player Towing capatible Brand new battery I hate to get rid of such a nice car (to me at least) that I took such good care of. I just simply can't afford two cars anymore. So I would like to sell it for $4300.00. (negotiable) I'd consider it in Good condition, but fair because of the cosmetic issues in the front. All the lights and everything work fine it's more of a matter of your personality. I'm not a flashy person and since it was my work and camping SUV it never bothered me enough to pay the $3 or $400 bucks to get the front fixed up if you'd chose to you'd have a pretty perfect car. I, nor anyone else, ever smoked in it. If you'd like to send me your email I can send you lots more pictures. CARFAX for it. I'm off all next week so get ahold of me anytime day or night if you'd like to see it or test drive it. |

2014 Ford Transit Connect Taxi hopes to fare thee well
Mon, 23 Sep 2013New York City may have selected its taxi of tomorrow, but there are still plenty of municipalities across the US with citizens that depend on yellow livery cars to get them across town in a jiffy. That's why Ford is going ahead with this, the new Transit Connect Taxi.
Based on the 2014 Transit Connect, the TC Taxi boasts a number of features designed to make the compact van appeal to discerning taxi drivers and their fares, with the most notable upgrade being a standardized prep package to convert the 2.5-liter four to run on liquefied petroleum or compressed natural gas. The clean-burning fuel options will allow operators to save on fuel costs and cut down on pollution without sacrificing performance.
A lower load floor and a new twist-beam rear suspension are meant to improve the riding experience for passengers, while the longer 2014 Transit Connect sports extra cargo space as well. In addition to the CNG/LPG conversion, the Transit Connect Taxi can also be easily modified for wheelchair access. Drivers, meanwhile, will have access to optional goodies like Sync with MyFord Touch and a rear-view camera.
UK's Loughborough University improving Ford's 1.0-litre EcoBoost engine
Wed, May 21 2014How much does it cost for college students to study zero emissions vehicles? At Loughborough University in the UK, a new Advanced Propulsion Centre (APC) is being built at a cost of a billion pounds ($1.7 billion US). The school has just announce that it will fund a number of grad student positions and is creating a new Chair in Advanced Propulsion Systems, which sounds like a fun job to us. We're weird like that. There will be a total of four professor-type positions in the new Center, including the chair, all focused on teaching students about low-carbon vehicle technologies, specifically electric and hybrid ones. The school is investing 1.5 million pounds ($2.5 million) for the new positions. There is a bigger picture as well, a 26-million pound ($44 million) Advanced Combustion Turbocharged Integrated Variable-valvetrain Engine (ACTIVE) project, which uses funds not only from the school but also from Ford and others. The point of ACTIVE is to study Ford's 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine and "improve further its efficiency and ensure it exceeds 2020 emission regulations." This is already a popular engine for the automaker, and it will need to stay at the bleeding edge of efficiency to remain as important in 2020 as it is today. Loughborough University has been working with automakers on advanced energy technologies for years, for example with Rolls-Royce and fuel cells in 2007 and the Lotus Hotfire engine in 2008. University invests GBP1.5M in advanced propulsion research to advance zero emissions vehicles challenge Loughborough University is investing GBP1.5M over five years in strategic research appointments, inspired by the global challenge to develop the new advanced propulsion technologies required for the move to zero emission vehicles. These appointments reinforce the University's world-class research in low-carbon vehicle technologies, adding new dimensions concerned with electric and hybrid drives. Four appointments will be made, including a Chair in Advanced Propulsion Systems, supported by a number of PhD studentships. The GBP1.5M investment is part of the University's commitment to the recently announced Advanced Propulsion Centre (APC) to support the development of new supply chains for low carbon vehicles. APC is an initiative established by the Automotive Council that will see GBP1 billion of investment from government and industry over the next 10 years.
