I have owned this car since Dec 2007. I bought it in Texas as a second car used for occasional trips and to escort customers. I have added a little over 13,000 miles in that time. The only time the car failed to start was when the battery died. Since I purchased it, it has been in a garage until last year when it was moved under a carport. The car was originally from Michigan where it started as a leased vehicle. At 3 years old it had less than 30,000 miles. It now has just over 43,100. I no longer do the type of work where I need a nice second car for customers and rarely drive this car so it is time to sell it. For a car this age the interior is nearly perfect as is the outside. Everything on the car works as one would expect it to as if it was much newer. I have had the car serviced every 3,000 miles. The tires were put on last year and still look new. My mechanic says the only thing he knows this car needs is to have the rotors turned the next time the front pads are replaced because there is a slight vibration upon firm braking. The right front speaker buzzes a little. The car comes with the original owner's manual. Kelly Blue book puts this car at over $6,000 in a private party sale. The front seats have been covered since I purchased the car to preserve the cloth. A dash cover is on the car to protect the dash from cracking in the Texas heat. The car is now in Southeastern Kentucky. I drove it from Texas to Kentucky on several occasions with no issues. In stop and go traffic it gets about 18-19 mpg and the best highway mileage I have recorded is 26. At 70 mph it does about 22.
I will not sell to overseas buyers and shipping is the responsibility of the buyer, if required. I will work with any shipper. A $250 non-refundable deposit is required up acceptance of your offer and remaining funds must be verified before I will release the car.

Watch Ken Block's scary Rally America crash from inside the cockpit
Wed, 19 Feb 2014Ken Block became famous for his series of Gymkhana videos, but he's a real racer in his own right. Block has competed many rounds in the FIA World Rally Championship and also rallied in the 2013 Rally America series. He nearly won that latter title last year - if not for a massive crash in the final event of the season.
Block and his co-driver Alex Gelsomino went into the Lake Superior Performance Rally needing a win to take the championship. However, missing a clump of dirt on the side of the road and one little word in the pace notes was all it took to catapult Block's Fiesta off the road and into a tumbling accident. Block says his initial reaction was anger because the crash came out of nowhere.
For 2014, Block is joining the FIA World Rallycross Championship for at least three rounds. He'll drive a Ford Fiesta for the Hoonigan Racing Division at the Norwegian, French and Turkish events of the 12-round championship. Former Formula One World Champion Jacques Villeneuve will also compete in the series.
NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Owners of Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner, Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models, listen up. According to a report on Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into these four vehicles totaling an estimated 725,000 units. The investigation appears to center around a malfunctioning throttle body on non-hybrid models of the 2005-2012 Escape and 2011-2012 Fusion. With Mercury dying off after the 2011 model year, this probe will also apply to the 2005 through 2011 Mariner and the 2011 Milan. There has been some discussion around the Escape stalling issue for some time now, but this investigation appears to be larger in scope than before.
Though not a recall yet, NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 123 complaints of stalling or surging vehicles, while Ford itself has logged 1,472 complaints. The investigation report, which is posted below, seems to indicate that a faulty circuit board for the throttle body could cause the vehicle to go into limp mode, which, according to NHTSA, could cause complaints of both stalling and surging.
Ford EcoBoost V6 hits the dyno before hitting the track
Wed, 02 Oct 2013Ford Racing just unveiled the Riley Daytona Prototype that will make its racing in the United SportsCar Racing Championship Rolex 24 at Daytona in January, and now it has released a video showing development of twin-turbo 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 that powers the car. Using the same block and heads that can be found on a production Ford Taurus SHO, this new racecar benefits from the collaboration between Ford Racing and Ford powertrain engineers.
While we still don't know what kind of power this engine is putting out, it has definitely gotten a workout at Ford's 17G dyno. This area deep within Ford allows the automaker's racing program to work hand-in-hand with production engine programs, which can be a benefit to racing operations and production cars alike. Scroll down to hear a few people from Ford talk about the crosspollination between its racing and engine teams and watch the EcoBoost get red hot on the dyno.
