2004 Mercury Marauder Trilogy Motorsports Supercharged.  Here's your chance to own a fine example of a modern muscle car!  A rare model to begin with, only sold for 2003-04 with around 2500 Marauders made in 2004.  Then add the Trilogy Motorsports supercharger which only 250 were made.  This car is kit # 166.  The Mercury Marauder starts basically as a Police Interceptor undercarriage with the heavy duty brakes, suspension, transmission, and fluid coolers.  Then add the 4V 4.6 liter Mustang engine from the Mach 1 Mustangs of the same year.  Wrap all of that in a gorgeous black Mercury body and Voila!  Modern Muscle at its finest.  This one has been stored in a heated garage and taken out on weekend cruises and the occasional roadtrip.  With less than 50,000 miles, that averages to 5,000 miles a year.  Hardly high usage.  This example has been adult owned and driven by a meticulous aircraft mechanic.  Regular service and care was completed as needed.  The interior is free of any major defects with no tears in the leather.  Every switch functions as it should.  There is an aftermarket Stereo unit with a Tom Tom GPS unit installed.  The stock stereo will be included. Estimated around 450 horsepower to the rear wheels.  Not super fast off of the line, but 40 to ??? acceleration is unbelievable.  Looks so much like a police vehicle, it isn't uncommon to be mistaken for one.  Fly under the radar.  Will bring its new owner many years of hot rod enjoyment.
There are a few minor defects.  You can refer to the pictures for a visual representation.  There is a minor dent in the hood. Can be pushed out by a qualified dent removal shop.  There are a couple of minor scratches on the paint with the worst on the right front fender.  The right front wheel has slight curb rash.  The front bumper cover has some paint "spiderwebbing" from a 10mph brush with a deer.  The deer walked away!  This incident did crack the front grill, so it was replaced.  These are small issues that are hardly noticeable.  The car looks great from 5 feet and is in great shape for being 10 yrs old. The tires are a little over 50% tread right now, but a full price offer will secure 4 new tires.  Also comes with the special Mercury Marauder Black leather jacket in XL.
No warranties are expressed or implied.  Buyer to arrange and pay for shipping if needed, but I can assist your carrier.  Or fly in and drive it away, I would not hesitate to jump in it right now and drive coast to coast.  Cash or certified funds only.  Just in time for Christmas!  Don't let this one get away.

Ford recalls over 953,000 vehicles to replace Takata airbag inflators

Fri, Jan 4 2019

DETROIT — Ford is recalling more than 953,000 vehicles worldwide to replace Takata passenger airbag inflators that can explode and hurl shrapnel. The move includes over 782,000 vehicles in the U.S. and is part of the largest series of recalls in U.S. history. Included are the 2010 Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX, the 2010 and 2011 Ford Ranger, the 2010 to 2012 Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ, the 2010 and 2011 Mercury Milan, and the 2010 to 2014 Ford Mustang. Some of the recalls may be limited to specific geographic areas of the U.S. Takata used the chemical ammonium nitrate to create an explosion to inflate airbags. But it can deteriorate over time due to heat and humidity and explode with too much force, blowing apart a metal canister designed to contain the explosion. At least 23 people have been killed worldwide and hundreds injured by the inflators. Ford says it doesn't know of any injuries in vehicles included in this recall. Dealers will replace the inflators. Ford will notify owners about the recall starting on Feb. 18, and the company has replacement parts available for dealers to order, said spokeswoman Monique Brentley. In previous Takata recalls, parts availability had been an issue. Owners can go to this Ford website and key in their vehicle identification number to see if their cars and SUVs are being recalled. The same information will be available soon at the NHTSA recall website. More than three years after the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration took over management of recalls involving Takata inflators, one third of the recalled inflators still have not been replaced, according to an annual report from the government and a court-appointed monitor. The report says 16.7 million faulty inflators out of 50 million under recall have yet to be replaced. And 10 million more inflators are scheduled to be recalled this month, including the Ford vehicles. Safety advocates said the completion rate should be far higher given the danger associated with the inflators. The recalls forced Takata of Japan to seek bankruptcy protection and sell most of its assets to pay for the fixes. The inflators grow more dangerous as they get older because ammonium nitrate deteriorates due to high humidity and cycles from hot temperatures to cold. The most dangerous inflators are in areas of the South along the Gulf of Mexico that have high humidity. Related Video:

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.

Ford announces free brake pad offer if customers stop by dealers

Mon, 04 Aug 2014

These days, when you buy a new car, it's not unreasonable to expect a certain period of free maintenance to come along as well. Sometimes this is through the life of the warranty, in other cases a little less. But Ford Motor Company is going beyond those deals for at least one part of its cars. As of now, if you buy a set of Motorcraft brake pads for a Ford, Lincoln or Mercury model, you get free replacements for as long as you own the vehicle. The offer is good at Ford or Lincoln dealers and Quick Lane Tire & Auto Centers.
"We will replace the pads for as long as you own the vehicle," said Elizabeth Weigandt to Autoblog. She did clarify that the Motorcraft pads are generally for models from the '90s or newer. Also, to take advantage of this program, a person must return to the same dealer each time to get the free parts.
Of course, Ford isn't just handing out brake pads to anyone who walks by; there are certain stipulations. First, the components have to be worn down to less than three millimeters to be eligible, and the buyer still has to pay for the labor to install them. If the model is used as a fleet vehicle for commercial purposes like as a taxi or limousine, this offer also doesn't apply; the same thing for racecars. On the plus side, if you recently bought a set of pads from one of the participating locations, you're still in luck. The deal covers parts purchased as of July 1.
