Up for sale is my 1996 Ford Probe GT. It has a 2.5L DOHC V6 engine with 95k miles on it. The transmission is a 5-speed manual. It is a two door coupe that seats four. Everything on the car is stock except for the air intake and the sound system/speakers. I am only the second owner in the car's history, have had it for about 4 years and have put about 10k miles on it. The car's title is clean and I have it in hand.

The good:
-Less than 100k original miles is great for a car almost 20 years old
-Interior is in good shape, there are a couple of cosmetic problems but it has seat covers that match on the front two seats
-Brand new interstate battery with a 5 year manufacturers warranty (Feb, '14)
-Aftermarket kenwood sound system: cd/radio/aux input single din deck with four kenwood speakers
-full engine tune up when I bought it: timing belt, spark plugs, system fluids flush
-regular oil changes since I have owned it
-10% tint on all windows except the windshield
-All power options on the car work: sunroof, windows and locks, side view mirrors, cruise control, and even the remote locks. I have the original set of keys (key and key fob) along with a spare key
-Brand New rain-x windshield wipers
-Full detail including the engine bay
-Smoke-free environment

The bad:
-tires are at about 25% tread and will need replacing soon
-trunk struts are broken so the hatch does not stay open on its own
-one headlight motor is broken so it won't flip down, however both lights work when the headlights are turned on
-the steering is a little off and it probably needs an alignment
-it has California plates with expired tags

Overall, this is a good car. The car has treated me well over the years and I will be sad to see it go. Its a perfect first car. For all the parents out there, consider that its a manual transmission, so you have to drive with two feet and two hands most of the time so you're not gonna be using a cell phone while driving. It also has an aux input so you can play Pandora through the car's speakers!

Toyota, Ford decide to end hybrid collaboration before it starts

Tue, 23 Jul 2013

Not all so-called Memorandum of Understanding pacts end in actual collaborations. For instance, after a two-year "feasibility study," Toyota and Ford have just announced that they will not be developing hybrid systems for use in light trucks and SUVs as previously planned, and the two automakers will instead continue to develop their own hybrid technology independently.
The would-be collaboration was first announced in August of 2011, and would have seen a rear-wheel-drive hybrid platform that would "improve the efficiency of trucks and SUVs while still allowing them to be driven in the way customers expect," according to our initial post on the topic.
Keep in mind that this announcement isn't to say we shouldn't expect hybrid pickups and SUVs from the two automakers, but that they probably aren't coming very soon - Ford says it will have a system "before the end of this decade" and we haven't heard much from Toyota on the hybrid truck front since the 2008 A-BAT Concept (pictured above) - and that they will not share any components between them (and they never have, for what it's worth).

Ford will probably never offer two RS models at the same time

Mon, 18 Mar 2013

Autocar has some sour news for fans of go-fast Ford products. According to Roelant de Waard, Ford's president of marketing in Europe, the automaker will probably never offer more than one RS performance model for sale at the same time. That statement runs contrary earlier rumblings that suggested Ford would launch its next-generation Focus RS in 2015 and follow the hatch with a spate of other vehicles with an RS badge. But de Waard has made it clear that Ford of Europe is now focused on squarely on the next Mustang, even though there may be more RS models on the way eventually.
"What is clear is that the RS shouldn't be a series, or a car badge that we have in our portfolio all the time. It is an extreme car - something more than ST," he said.
That philosophy makes plenty of sense. We loved the old Focus RS - shown above in RS500 trim - because it was generally bonkers and plenty exclusive. Diluting either aspect is sure to end in disappointment for everyone involved.

William Clay Ford Sr. dead at 88

Sun, 09 Mar 2014

William Clay Ford, retired vice chairman of Ford Motor Company and the last surviving grandchild of company founder Henry Ford, died this morning after a bout with pneumonia. He was 88.
Ford spent 57 years with his grandfather's company, joining the board of directors in 1948 before graduating from college. Ford also held a position as chairman of the design committee, as well as the chairman of the executive committee and vice chairman of the Board of Directors during his tenure with the company. In a 2013 Detroit Free Press story, retired CFO Allan Gilmour said Ford had an eye for design, and was once able to pick out when a fiberglass model of a Ford Contour was asymmetrical, off by an inch on one side. He retired and assumed the position of director emeritus in 2005.
"My father was a great business leader and humanitarian who dedicated his life to the company and the community," said Bill Ford, Jr., Ford's current executive chairman. "He also was a wonderful family man, a loving husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. He will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him, yet he will continue to inspire us all."
