I have had this B2 since 2004. I bought it in South Georgia and brought it to Ohio in 2007. It has a 2.9 V6 and I suspect it has cracked heads. I was stuck in traffic and it over heated. I drove it home anyway, so the engine is probably toast. I have swapped the engine out a couple of times already and I am just tired of fixing it up. It does not run. The body is probably the best you will find. It was painted (stayed with original blue) a few years back and they did a good job. Then a deer ran into it and I replaced the passenger door and fender with ones out of a salvage yard of the same color (but faded). I do have a brand new fender still in the cardboard. Performance mods included: Pacesetter ceramic coated headers, K&N air filter, rear leaf springs from an Explorer, larger throttle body from an earlier year 2.9, cool 2 part sun visors, Upper and Lower intakes are port matched, 5 very nice wheels from an explorer, Bucket seats were reupholstered by a hot rod shop and I have enough fabric to have the rear seats done if they ever needed it (they are still original and in great shape), performance coil, upgraded plug wires, Thrush muffler (I will also give you the old turbo muffler if you want it), headlight lenses are pretty clear. I added a blue lighted switch on the dash for the fog lights. One of the fog lights got busted and I took the other one off, but it would be easy to put a pair on. I thought about swapping in a 4.0 (I have one on the engine stand) but I just don't have time to work on it any more. Somebody buy this B2. Don't make me take it to the scrap yard. It would break my heart. Hard to let it go. Would like to see somebody use it. YOU MUST COME AND PICK IT UP.

2014 Ford Fiesta gets fuel economy bump to 41 mpg

Fri, 07 Jun 2013

The 2014 Ford Fiesta is in showrooms now with refreshed styling and new performance ST model, but it's what isn't yet available that should help the Fiesta stand out from the growing crowd of subcompacts. Aside from the new 1.0-liter EcoBoost model coming later this year, Ford recently told us that a new Fiesta SFE trim level is on the way that should put the updated Fiesta at the top of its class for fuel economy.
The new Fiesta SFE will hit an estimated 41 miles per gallon on the highway when equipped with the six-speed automatic transmission. The current listing on fueleconomy.gov shows the 2014 Fiesta getting up to 29 mpg city and 39 highway, but the SFE will get minor aero tuning and a recalibrated engine controller to help bump the highway figure past rivals like the Chevrolet Sonic and Nissan Versa - both of which top out at 40-mpg highway. There's still no word as to when the small 1.0-liter EcoBoost will show in the US, but Ford has indicated that engine's fuel economy isn't expected to be released until October.

Ford sued over alleged 3.5-liter EcoBoost defects

Thu, 16 May 2013

Three Ford owners from Ohio have filed a lawsuit against the automaker over defects that they allege exist within the company's twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost engine. Automotive News reports that the lawsuit claims the engine "contained serious latent design, manufacturing, or assembly defects." Those defects, the suit claims, cause the vehicle to shake, misfire and lose power quickly.
Two of the plaintiffs, a married couple, own a 2010 Ford Taurus SHO, and allege they experienced a loss of power and stalling, while the third, an F-150 owner, claims he lost power while accelerating. In addition to the Taurus SHO and F-150, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost engine is also available in the Ford Flex, Explorer Sport and Lincoln MKT and MKS. Other three- and four-cylinder EcoBoost engines are not included in the suit. There have been no recalls associated with 3.5-liter V6 engine, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is currently not investigating the matter.
The plaintiffs, however, claim Ford has known about the problem, citing several technical service bulletins issued to dealers of the F-150 that suggest possible fixes. Ford had no comment for Automotive News, saying that it's yet to review the lawsuit, which was filed last Friday in Columbus, OH.

Is this the 2017 Ford Fusion?

Fri, Aug 14 2015

Thanks to the sharp eyes of an anonymous tipster, you're looking at what may very well be the 2017 Ford Fusion. We know Ford's midsize sedan is in line for a makeover, and judging by the spy shots we've already seen, the somewhat blurry photo above matches what we're expecting to see. Styling updates won't be major, which is probably wise considering how well-received the current car's overall look was when it debuted as a 2013 model. The most immediately obvious styling tweak is a more taut fascia, with a grille that's pulled wider and pointier than the current Fusion. A shapely pair of headlights flank that new grille, and at the lower corners, angular new blades that may or may not house driving lights are new decorations to the Fusion's face. We don't see any changes to the car's bodysides, and with just one angle to dissect, we'll just have to guess at what the next Fusion will look like from the rear. Take a good look at the image above and let us know what you think. Is this indeed the 2017 Ford Fusion, and if so, is it a step in the right direction?
