2004 Ford Explorer Xlt...4.0l V6...4x4...needs Work, But Really Nice on 2040-cars
Mount Holly, New Jersey, United States
|
Listed for sale is this 2004 Ford Explorer XLT with approximately 119K miles. The vehicle is in very good condition inside and out. The interior shows some wear and tear, but the leather seats and carpet are free of rips. Front seats could use some leather cleaner, but the rest of the seats look almost new. The exterior is also in very good condition. There is paint peeling from the end of the hood caused by the wind visor that was recently moved. Overall, I rate the interior a 7.5, and the exterior an 8 on a scale of 1 to 10.
The vehicle will need some mechanical work. Installed what was believed to be a good transmission about 3 weeks. Once the transmission was installed, the vehicle shifted perfectly, but it had no park. It would rolled if the vehicle was not on a flat surface, but all the other gears worked perfectly. Now, the reverse only works some of the time. I had several mechanics said this has to do with the linkage, which could be caused if the transmission wasn't installed properly. The vehicle belongs to my uncle whose almost certain the transmission he purchased was good, but that it wasn't installed. My uncle happens to be a mechanic; however, he didn't install the transmission. He's not sure what he wants to do with the vehicle, and asked if I would list it on EBay for him. The car was just recently serviced and tuned-up. In addition, both catalytic convertors were replaced; so the vehicle sound a little louder than normal. However, both O2 sensors will need to be replaced. This is a very nice vehicle overall, which is worth repairing. Again, he doesn't believe it's the transmission, but he's not 100% sure. However, he did get a quote for another transmission and installation, which came up to approximately $900 to $1000. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Thanks and Good Luck! NOTE: $300 Deposit due within 24 hours and full payment in 3 days. |

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost already hitting 12-second quarters
Sun, 28 Sep 2014The arrival of a new Ford Mustang means many things to many people, but not least of them is drag racers. The pony car has always been a mainstay of the drag strip, and the Ford Racing team aims to carry that reputation forward with this latest generation. So it cooked up a few basic modifications on three new 'Stangs and headed to the strips at US 131 and Milan Dragway to see what they could coax out of 'em.
Impressively, the 5.0-liter V8 Mustang GT with a few modifications (but no forced induction) managed to clock a quarter-mile time of 11.77 seconds. Another Mustang GT fitted with a supercharger clocked a blistering 10.97 seconds. But just as intriguing was the modified EcoBoost model that, with only four cylinders and 2.3 liters of displacement, still passed the gates in just 12.56 seconds - nearly half a second better than expected. This with modification limited to a new subframe, half-shaft, drive shaft loops, exhaust, engine calibration, slicks, roll cage and bucket seat. Well done, boys.
Why Ford's Alan Mulally would be right for Microsoft, or any company
Thu, 03 Oct 2013
That Mulally was seriously being considered says a great deal about Microsoft and Mulally.
It appears that the chatter about Ford CEO Alan Mulally possibly leaving early to take over as CEO of Microsoft is losing air pretty fast. What's pretty interesting is that it got any traction in the first place.
Ford tumbles to second worst in Consumer Reports reliability survey, list dominated by Japanese [w/video]
Mon, 29 Oct 2012It's no secret that MyFord Touch has had its share of problems since being introduced, but the most recent reliability survey from Consumer Reports shows just how much this infotainment system has affected Ford. Just two years ago, the automaker was in the top 10 for the institute's reliability rankings, but since then, it has tumbled to the second-lowest rung just above dead-last Jaguar. In addition to MyFord Touch, CR also attributes a handful of new products that have had issues right out of the gate.
Compiled from 1.2 million subscriber surveys, this year's auto reliability survey heavily favors Japanese automakers, with eight of the 10 spots hailing from Japan. Toyota brands grabbed the top three spots (Scion, Toyota and Lexus - in that order) with Mazda, Subaru, Honda and Acura filling the next four spots. The only non-Asian automaker cracking the top 10 was Audi at number eight.
Audi climbed a total of 18 spots from last year, and Cadillac and GMC round out this year's top gainers breaking into the top 15. Helping Cadillac's upward movement, the CTS Coupe was named the most reliable domestic car. Lincoln, Volvo and Chrysler join Ford on this year's biggest loser list.
