Extremely fuel-efficient. I drove from Arden, Ontario to Burlington, Ontario and back, and used just over a half-tank.
I had the braking module changed on it since I bought it used in 2012. I drove out west with it and back, in -30c weather in the winter time, and the brakes work great. I had two minor front end collisions that were not the car's fault. One, because of tires and very bad road, and the other because of night-time driving. All Ford model parts replacement, no after market. Front bumper changed and some little things. I can provide a list for serious interest only. I have gotten excellent Ford report cards on the car. Interior charcoal fabric. Car starter, remote lock and factory alarm system, combination entry on driver's side, very beautiful rims, ambient lights under the side mirrors that show off the car, at night. Very comfortable seating. Back seats all have adjustable headrests and good leg room. (I am tall!) It has all the bells and whistles, except for sunroof. Hands-free phone connection, digital display and computer plugins, satellite, 6 cd changer, driver and front passenger separate environmental controls, multiple power plugins for cell phone or anything that plugs into a cigarette lighter. BTW, this is a non-smoking vehicle. This car does not need to be plugged in - ever - since I had it. It self charges when it runs. It is very quiet when in gas mode, and silent when in electric mode. It alternates on its own between modes, depending on your acceleration, or also, when it is idle. When idle, it will alternate every 10-12 minutes between modes. I have kept up with oil changes. If you put the high-quality oil, you do not need to change it for about 10,000km. And I recommend going to Ford for tune-ups - as this is their specialty car that they know well. It doesn't cost me more to go to a Ford dealer, in fact, they want to be competitive, so it has worked out for me. This is the most fuel-efficient, one of the most comfortable, and one of the sexiest cars I have ever driven. My circumstances have changed and I need to sell it. This is a nice car for a professional or for your wife! There is a lien on this car. Please email me for offers. Negotiable. |

Ford hiring 2,200 salaried US workers this year
Fri, 11 Jan 2013With its influx of popular new products made in the US, Ford Motor Company has announced that it intends to hire 2,200 new salaried workers domestically this year. This is the biggest increase of salaried workers for Ford in the last 10 years, and it is all a part of Ford's contract commitment to the United Auto Workers union to bring 12,000 new jobs to the US by 2015.
There were no specifics as to where in the US these job openings will be, but Ford did reiterate that it will be spending $773 million on equipment upgrades and capacity expansion at six plants located in southeast Michigan; as a whole, Ford is investing a total of $6.2 billion to its US assembly plants over the next couple years. According to recently appointed president of the Americas Joe Hinrichs, the new jobs will be focused on areas such as engineering, manufacturing and computer software. Ford will post its job openings online at careers.ford.com, and it will also use social media sites like Facebook and Twitter to recruit new workers, including military veterans.
Scroll down for more about Ford's planned job growth as well as how to go about applying for said openings.
Ford Green Zone works magic with GPS to make your drive smarter, cleaner
Fri, Aug 29 2014For the most part, plug-in hybrids rely on the power stored in the battery until that charge is depleted. Unless the switch can be changed manually, it's only then that the cars fire up the internal combustion engine and begin using the fossil fuels on board. This is ideal, of course, when one's drive isn't long enough that the car needs to start sipping gasoline at all. On longer commutes, when it's certain that the route is longer than the car's all-electric range, this isn't necessarily the most efficient use of energy. Ford's Green Zone system is designed to save some of that juice for the parts of the drive that require slower speeds. Ford is working on a smart system, based on Nokia mapping technology, that uses GPS data to use both the electricity and conventional fuel more efficiently. Since battery power is less efficient at highway speeds, Ford's Green Zone system is designed to save some of that juice for the parts of the drive that require slower speeds, rather than just using up all the electrons right at the beginning of the drive. Using a website or the in-car navigation system, the driver can pinpoint the parts of the route, highlighted in green, where using battery power would be more effective, and set the car to automatically switch to electricity for those sections. Depending on the route, the car could automatically switch back and forth between the two power sources multiple times, particularly if the drive is a mix between city and highway driving. Of course, Green Zone will be go beyond that. The program is being developed to take traffic and road grade into account, details that allow the car to be make even smarter choices to improve efficiency. Ford even hopes to have Green Zone learn driver habits, and respond accordingly depending on who is driving the car. The system could control other features as well, such as anticipating corners and shifting the headlights to better illuminate the road ahead. Green Zone could also potentially use information from vehicle-to-vehicle networking to control functions in the car. The Green Zone system still has a few years before it will be ready to be put into production vehicles, but Ford is confident it will make its way onto the road eventually. As with other innovations that improve efficiency and make our vehicles smarter, we can expect to see similar technology from other manufacturers, until it becomes a regular part of driving in the future.
