Up for sale is a 1995 Mercury Grand Marquis LS with only 64,180 original miles.  This is a garage kept, 1 owner vehicle that is in excellent condition.  I say excellent because the vehicle does not need any mechanical reconditioning and the body and interior are immaculate.  The body is straight with no previous repairs or even dents.  There are two paint chips I found on the front passenger wheel well (see pic), but other than that this car is very clean.  The interior has no rips or burn holes.  The air conditioning works well and so does everything else in the vehicle with a few minor exceptions.  One item I noticed that doesn't work is the push button off on the radio.  The radio stays on but the volume can be turned all the way down if no sound is desired.  Also, the hood struts do not keep the hood closed but these can be replaced inexpensively. Finally, the front passenger window doesn't go down.  I'm not sure if it's a switch, motor, or something else.  


The tires are all matching Michelin tires with plenty of tread wear left.  I have pictures but didn't include them here because I can only put 24 pics. 

All in all this is an elegant automobile with it's classy lines and cloth top roof (which is in tip top condition).  And it's basically like buying a new car for a whole lot less since this car is ready to be driven for a whole lot of miles.  Most of you know that these are the same as the Ford Crown Victorias and were the first choice by police and taxis when they were being produced.  This is because they are full frame vehicles which means they are very sturdy and will last for hundreds of thousands of miles with proper maintenance (trust me..I ask every NYC cab driver how many miles they have on their cars and I'm shocked to constantly hear numbers above 300,000 miles). Also, they have plenty of room, power, and are cheap to maintain due to parts being widely available and from domestic producers (cheaper).  

Not sure what else to say about this car...the pictures should speak for themselves.  

Feel free to call me with questions -  516-468-3258

I reserve the right to end this auction early since the vehicle is being sold locally as well.

Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.

Ford finds flex-fuel engine design plays big role in emissions output

Mon, Jan 6 2014

How bad is ethanol for your engine? There's been a lot of debate on this issue as the US considers upping the biofuel content in the national gasoline supply from 10 percent (E10) to 15 percent (E15). The ethanol industry and some scientists say higher ethanol blends show no "meaningful differences" in new engines while the oil industry says ethanol creates health risks. Researchers working at the Ford Research and Innovation Center decided to take a closer look at how a wide range of gas-ethanol blends - E0, E10, E20, E30, E40, E55 and E80 - affected the emissions coming out of a flex-fuel 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis. To see the full report, printed in the journal Environmental Science & Technology, requires payment, but there is an abstract and Green Car Congress has some more details. The gist is that, "with increasing ethanol content in the fuel, the tailpipe emissions of ethanol, acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, methane, and ammonia increased." At least NOx and NMHC emissions decreased. The researchers say that the effects are due to the fuel and "are expected for all FFVs," but that the way that a manufacturer calibrates the engine will affect NOx, THC, and NMOG emissions. It's this last bit that's important, since the researchers found, "Higher ethanol content in gasoline affects several fundamental fuel properties that can impact emissions. ... These changes can have positive or negative effects that can depend on engine design, hardware, and control strategy. In addition to direct emissions impacts, higher ethanol content fuel can also provide more efficient combustion and overall engine operation under part-load conditions and under knock-limited higher-load conditions." So, as we head towards more ethanol in our fuel supply (maybe), manufacturers are going to need to learn how to burn it most efficiently.

Ford recalls 1.9m cars and crossovers for defective airbags

Wed, Jun 1 2016

The Basics: Ford is recalling a total of 1,898,728 vehicles to replace defective Takata front passenger-side airbags. This includes the 2007-2010 Ford Edge, 2006-2011 Ford Fusion, 2005-2011 Ford Mustang, 2007-2011 Ford Ranger, 2007-2010 Lincoln MKX and 2006-2011 Lincoln MKZ, Zephyr and Mercury Milan vehicles built in North America. The Problem: The defective airbags have been linked to ruptures that can send metal fragments at the passenger, due to deteriorating propellant. Injuries/Deaths: Ford claims it's not aware of any injuries due to the problem, but rupturing Takata airbags have been linked to a series of serious injuries and deaths. The Fix: Dealers will replace the passenger-side frontal airbag at no charge to the customer. If you own one: Look out for a letter from the manufacturer to arrange service at your local dealer.
