Very well cared for 2005 Ford Escape, XLT, 3.0 V6, with just a little more than 85,950 miles at the time of posting. I can't say enough good things about the Ford Escapes! I just purchased a 2012 Escape, thus my reason for selling the 05. I am the 2nd owner of this vehicle, and it has been absolutely reliable and a pleasure to drive. Everything is in good working order. It was in need of new front shocks, which I just added new Monroe's this past month ($500+ for that, oil, rotation, and inspection by Aamco in Upland, CA). I had the transmission fluid flushed and filter changed there last year as well, and everything runs very smooth. No leaks, no smoke, no issues. The brakes were done when I got it at/around 34K miles, so that might be one item that will need attention at some point. At this time, there's no issues, as a majority of the miles I drove were freeway miles (including quite a few trips to Phoenix, Las Vegas, and the Fresno area). The exterior is in NICE condition. Never wrecked, accident free. The hood has just a few minor chips from over the years, and there's a thin-lined vertical scratch on the rear bumper. At first glance, I thought it was a little streak of water. There is also a very minor dent by the back side of the SUV, near the rear, passenger door. It's small enough that I don't think I can get it to show on the pictures. I only noticed it when standing on the side of it looking straight down the line of the body. This will be a great SUV for whoever ends up getting it. The V6's in the Ford Escapes are highly reputable, and have been battle proven over the years. I have seen 04 and 05 Escapes still running amazingly strong at 140K miles. This Ford Escape should be no exception.

2014 Ford Fiesta ST
Tue, 15 Oct 2013I'm not overly inclined to professional jealousy, as a rule. Sure, I go a bit green around the eyes when Ramsey draws the 911 GT3 trip to Weissach, Harley is tapped-in to drive a completely stunning Porsche 911 by Singer, or, you know, Drew Phillips gets to shoot a Lamborghini Veneno in the middle of a desert like some sort of sheik. I hate you guys...
Honestly though, one of the new car events that dug me the most, was when our Steven J. Ewing got to fling the Ford Fiesta ST around some hot corner of Europe. What goes around comes around, I suppose, as Mr. Ewing himself espoused an envious nature of the Focus ST trip that came before.
The good news in all this covetous intra-office behavior? All the cars mentioned, and specifically the Fiesta ST, are just wonderful to drive. I can say that with more confidence than ever now, having joined Ford for a good bit of Fiesta-flinging myself. In my case, the locale was slightly more pedestrian (Michigan not Portugal), and the car in question was the five-door version of the Fiesta ST that we get here in The States, as opposed to the three-door number they get across the pond.
Ford Police Interceptor with 2.0L EcoBoost rated most fuel-efficient police sedan
Tue, 26 Nov 2013Back in September, Ford announced a non-pursuit version of its Police Interceptor Sedan, which swaps out a choice of two V6 engines for a fuel-efficient 2.0-liter EcoBoost inline four-cylinder. This Special Service Police Sedan will be marketed to law enforcement agencies looking to cut fuel costs and don't need the extra power.
For college campuses, detectives and the like, this new police car has now been certified with EPA fuel economy estimates of 20 miles per gallon in the city, 32 mpg on the highway and a combined rating of 24 mpg. These figures represent a decrease of two mpg in city and combined ratings compared to the civilian-spec 2014 Taurus. These police cars still offer active grille shutters for better aerodynamics, although we're guessing agencies upfitting their cars with light bars and push bumpers aren't exactly concerted with aerodynamics. The true benefit of the SSP version is when it's compared against other police sedan options like the Dodge Charger, Chevy Impala, Chevy Caprice and even the V6 Police Interceptor Sedan.
Ford claims the new Police Interceptor Sedan SSP is the most fuel-efficient current option for police departments, saying that this car can save $1,720 per car over three years and almost $260,000 over the same span of time for fleets with 150 vehicles. There is an official press release posted below, and also check out the gallery of images from Ford collected from various police agencies across the US (although none show the 2.0-liter SSP model). Head on over to Ford's Police Interceptor mini-site for even more pictures of the Police Interceptor Sedan and Utility.
Ford and 'Dirty Jobs' pitchman Mike Rowe part ways [w/videos]
Thu, 20 Feb 2014Former Dirty Jobs host Mike Rowe has one less job as of today - the pitchman is no longer a pitchman for Ford, with yesterday's announcement from Rowe ending a seven-year partnership between the TV host and the Blue Oval.
Rowe made the announcement to political pundit Glenn Beck, saying the two are "going in different directions" and wishing Ford "every possibly success that any car company could ever have," according to The Detroit News. Rowe and Ford got together in 2005, right around the time the 51-year-old came to prominence as the host of Dirty Jobs and the narrator for Deadliest Catch, two of the Discovery Channel's most popular shows.
Take a look below for a few video snippets of Rowe's tenure at Ford.
