I am selling my 05 ford focus 2 door, zx3 hatchback, it has a 5 speed transmission, is great on gas, like close to 40mpg highway. 

Runs and drives, no problems, full tune up recently, always maintained. Engine idles, runs, and drives great, transmission shifts flawlessly, muffler is quiet, brakes are good, NO RUST, one small dent above left side taillight (see pics). Some orange peel on the drivers side fender and door (have to be right next to car to see)

It has a salvage title because it was involved in a low speed crash with a deer, just damaged the bumper but that was replaced and painted. Car passed salvage inspection, and is my daily driver. Have title in hand, ready to go as soon as the auction ends.

This car has almost every option you can have on this year focus, power locks, moonroof, windows, steering wheel controls, tilt steering, power mirrors, fog lights, red cold air intake, black stock rims, tinted side markers, grill, and taillights, red calipers and rotors, alpine cd player with motorized face(have the stock 6 disc cd player if you want that installed instead), de-badged the trunk, ford factory alarm with 2 remotes, keyless entry.

Has a 2.0 duralast 16valve motor, not the zetec that is in older focus' this is a better more reliable motor, this car is fun to drive its very responsive. 

VERY CLEAN, TOP TO BOTTOM, NOTHING MISSING OR BROKEN, STARTS RIGHT UP, A/C IS COLD. HAVE TO SEE TO APPRECIATE.
111,042 miles on car they will be going up because its my daily driver, oil always changed.
Great car for the money, very reliable!

 I will ship this car, as long as the winning bidder pays with paypal.Once the payment clears shipping can be arranged. Any questions you can call or text me, just message me on ebay or email me for my contact information.

Xcar shows how to drive the Ford Model T

Wed, Jan 21 2015

A couple of weeks ago Xcar posted a teaser review of the Ford Model T, a look at what the British duo would have been doing if they'd been doing their thing for 100 years. Now we have their complete, 12-minute take on the what might be, as they say, "arguably the most important car of the 20th century." Thankfully, instead of just a review, Xcar spends about half the time giving us a tour of history, from Ford's early days working for the Edison Illuminating Company to his racing days and founding of several car companies that either died or became other car companies after he left, like Cadillac. They also line up the pieces and the sales realities that led to Ford implementing – not creating, mind you – assembly-line production of the Tin Lizzie. And then they get into how crazy it is to drive, like how a driver needs two of the three pedals, the handbrake lever and a steering column stalk to get into high gear. Enjoy the video above on a 100-year-old car that is "unbelievably comfortable," "mildly terrifying" and ready to do just about anything.

Ford rethinking vehicle launch strategy

Tue, 07 May 2013

With a new boss at the helm, Ford is looking at new ways to improve its vehicle launches in North America to prevent recent issues that have popped up with models like the Lincoln MKZ, Ford Escape and Ford Fusion. Speaking with Automotive News, Ford's new president of the Americas, Joe Hinrichs, revealed a few ways the automaker plans to avoid early build issues such as the engine fires on certain 2013 Escape and Fusion models and months-long delays for customers to receive their MKZs.
It sounds like the root of the problems may have been Ford's relationship with suppliers compounded by the fact that the product surge came on the heels of the recent industry-crippling recession, and in the AN article, Hinrichs says improvements are being made to reduce problems during the launch of new or redesigned models. Three such improvements that were implemented during the first quarter of this year including more rigorous quality comparisons, better use of computer technology to catch major problems sooner and hiring engineers to work closer with suppliers.

Foreign automakers pay from $38 to $65 per hour to non-union workers

Sun, Mar 29 2015

As leaders for the United Auto Workers gather in Detroit for their Special Convention on Collective Bargaining to work out the negotiating stance for this year's new labor agreements with the Detroit 3 automakers, what they most want to do is figure out how to eliminate the two-tier wage scale. However, the lower Tier 2 wage has allowed the domestic automakers to reduce their labor costs, hire more workers, and compete better with their import competition. As it stands, per-hour labor rates including benefits are $58 at General Motors, $57 at Ford, and $48 at Fiat-Chrysler – a reflection of FCA's much greater number of Tier 2 workers. The Center for Automotive Research released a study of labor rates (including benefits) that put numbers to what the imports pay: Mercedes-Benz pays the most, at an average of $65 per hour, Volkswagen pays the least, at $38 per hour, and BMW is just a hair above that at $39 per hour. Among the Detroit competitors, Honda workers earn an average of $49 per hour, at Toyota it's $48 per hour, Nissan is $42 per hour, and Hyundai-Kia pays $41 per hour. The lower import wages are aided by their greater use of temporary workers compared to the domestics. Automotive News says the ten-dollar gap between those foreign camakers and the domestics turns out to about an extra $250 per car in labor, which adds up quickly when you're pumping out many millions of cars. That $250-per-car number is one that, come negotiating time, the Detroit 3 will want to reduce, as the UAW is trying to raise both Tier 1 and Tier 2 wages. Another wrinkle is that the domestic carmakers are considering the wide adoption of a third wage level lower than Tier 2. Some workers who do minor tasks like assembling parts trays kits and battery packs already make less than Tier 2, but the UAW will be quite wary about cementing yet another wage scale at the bottom of the system while it's trying to fight a bigger battle at the top.
