This beauty has been good to us and we have treated it well, but we are moving to England (US Navy) and can't take it with us. Come get it at $11,500, more than $500 under the Blue Book value!

*Zip past anything (0-60 in less than nine seconds) and tow 7,300 pounds with a 292 hp 4.6L 24-valve SOHC V-8 driven by an electronically-controlled six-speed automatic transmission.
*Protect your family with front-seat side airbags, dual-stage front airbags, an adaptive steering column to reduce intrusion in a front-end collision, adaptive airbag venting, driver-seat position sensors, and AdvanceTrac with Roll Stability Control.
*Fit anything in the back with fold-down second-row seats. I just moved an entire loveseat!
*Don't worry about snow and ice next winter, the 4x4 Auto with Ford's Control Trac AWD system will get you there safely.
*Show off your leather seats and wood trim.
*Smoke-free its entire life.

The one flaw in this diamond is the third-row seats. They need the lift arms replaced. Phil Long Ford priced the labor at $208, and you can get both arms for around $450 total online. That's $658 in repairs.

Blue Book on this car without the repair issue is $12,625. I'll offer it for $11,500. If you don't need the third row right now, save the money and fix it later - you're getting a great SUV. If you do need the seating, you're still $500 under the private party value for Blue Book and I'll help you order the arms. If you bought it from a dealer, Blue Book says it would cost $2700 more than my price. 

You won't find a recent model with mileage or a price this low - feel free to check Autotrader.

Thank you for considering it.

2015 Ford Mustang GT road test ride-along

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

You've no doubt already pored over our first drive of the 2015 Ford Mustang, where author Jonathon Ramsey proclaimed that "this new car shames the old, redefines the model and gallops far ahead of anything else in the segment." And following Ramsey's first stint behind the wheel of Ford's new coupe, we sent him back out with another 'Stang to capture some of these same impressions over a backdrop of the car moving quickly along gorgeous California canyon roads.
But this also gave our author and editors time to read through the hundreds of comments left on that original Mustang review. You readers are indeed a vocal bunch, and one particular comment about how the automotive media is so willing to bash an outgoing car as soon as the new one arrives really caught our attention. In this video, Ramsey stands by his written text, saying the new Mustang is "massively better than the one it replaces," and in doing so, addresses your comments while providing more insight into just how good the Ford truly is.
We won't spoil the rest for you. Check out the feature video above, and as always, leave us your thoughts in the Comments section below.

Ford shows off V8-powered Ranger headed to Dakar Rally

Tue, 30 Jul 2013

Avert your eyes now if you're jealous that the global version of the Ford Ranger is not offered in the US. Ford's midsize pickup is being tuned up to take on the 2014 Dakar Rally, and the result is a truck that is probably even cooler than any F-150 SVT Raptor we've ever seen in the States. Ford is actually building two versions of the truck for Dakar, which will run from January 5 through January 18, covering more than 5,000 miles from Argentina to Chile.
Starting with a fully composite body and a 5.0-liter V8 plucked from a Mustang, nearly every aspect of the trucks have been purpose built to take on the grueling race. This includes things like the six-speed sequential gearbox, liquid-cooled rear brakes and the 132-gallon fuel tank. As proof that Dakar is more about endurance than speed, the engines used in these race trucks will be limited to around 350 horsepower and 413 pound-feet of torque, and will max out at a top speed of just 105 miles per hour. Scroll down for Ford's official press release offering more information about the trucks and teams being prepped for Dakar.

Ford hiring 800 more salaried workers than originally expected

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Ford is on a roll this year, with excellent quarterly earnings and better-than-expected vehicle sales leading to 800 more job opportunities with the Blue Oval. In January, Ford announced that it wanted to hire 2,200 salaried employees, but, since then, that figure has been revised to 3,000, representing a 36-percent increase over original projections. About 1,500 of those jobs remain, 80 percent of which are technical professional positions.
"Engineers and technical professionals are in as much demand as our cars, trucks and SUVs," says Felicia Fields, Ford Group Vice President for Human Resources. Helping to spur this job growth are increasing market share on both the West and East Coast and robust demand for the Ford Escape and F-150.
To find job candidates, Ford is reaching out to them via Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, in addition to the company's corporate career site. The Blue Oval is also ramping up its presence on college campuses.
