ALWAYS BEEN A FAMILY VEHICLE!!

UP FOR AUCTION TODAY IS MY 2002 FORD EXCURSION 4X4 WITH THE HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER 7.3 LITER POWERSTROKE DIESEL! I HAVE OWNED IT FOR THE PAST 8 YEARS. I BOUGHT IT FROM THE ORIGINAL OWNER WHICH WAS THE LOCAL FORD DEALERSHIP OWNERS WIFE BACK IN JAN. 2006. THE VEHICLE WAS COMPLETELY STOCK EXCEPT FOR THE HUSKY LINER FLOOR MATS WHICH WERE PLACED THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE VEHICLE. THEY ARE STILL IN IT TODAY. WITHIN A FEW MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING IT, WE HAD A BANKS SYSTEM PUT IN FROM GAIL BANKS ENGINEERING OUT OF ASUZA, CA. WE ACTUALLY HAD IT INSTALLED IN CA. AT BANKS. THE WHOLE INSTALL TOOK ABOUT 3 DAYS. WE PUT THE MOST INTO IT YOU COULD PUT AT THE TIME AND HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS WHATSOEVER! THE UPGRADES INCLUDE THE POWERPACK W/ STINGER STACKED WITH THE BIG HOSS BUNDLE WHICH BASICALLY UPGRADED THE EXHAUST, INTERCOOLER, TURBO, AIR FILTER SYSTEM (K&N) AND THE COMPUTER SYSTEM. GOING TO CALIFORNIA, WE WERE AVERAGING 17 MPG AND COMING BACK HOME WE WERE GETTING 19 MPG!! THAT'S DRIVING NORMAL. THIS THING HAS PLENTY OF POWER IF NEEDED. ALSO, WE HAD THE BANKS TRANSCOMMAND INSTALLED TO RAISE THE LINE PRESSURE TO THE TORQUE CONVERTOR WITH THE EXTRA HORSEPOWER. WE NEVER PULLED ANYTHING WITH IT OTHER THAN A LITTLE UTILITY TRAILER WITH A 4-WHEELER. IT WAS MOSTLY USED AROUND TOWN BY MY WIFE AND FOR THE LONG TRIPS TO DISNEY AND CALIFORNIA. MAINTENANCE WISE, I HAVE ALWAYS USED ROYAL PURPLE IN THE ENGINE. THE TIRES STILL HAVE GOOD THREADS ON THEM. THE FIRST BREAK DOWN PARTS FINALLY HAPPENED TO US THIS YEAR. BACK IN MAY OF LAST YEAR, WE HAD THE HPOP CHANGED. THIS IS THE HIGH PRESSURE OIL PUMP. WE INSTALLED AN ADRENALINE PUMP WHICH HAS A 2 YEAR 24,000 MILE WARRANTY WHICH IS TRANSFERRABLE TO THE NEXT PERSON, I ALREADY CALLED THEM UP. THIS PUMP GAVE IT A BETTER RUN FROM TAKE OFF. ALSO, A NEW ALTERNATOR AND SERPENTINE BELT WAS PUT ON RECENTLY. **THIS WAS A SOUTHERN TRUCK IT'S WHOLE LIFE** NO RUST WHATSOEVER!! I TRIED TO COVER MOSTLY EVERYTHING I COULD HERE AND THE UPPER DESCRIPTIONS. I AM AN HONEST PERSON AND WILL NOT LIE ABOUT THE CONDITION OR TRY TO COVER IT UP WITH SOME QUICK PAINT OR ARMOR ALL. WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET. THE VEHICLE WAS USED BY MY FAMILY OF SIX WITH NO ISSUES. IT HAS BEEN GREAT TO US, BUT IT IS TIME TO LET IT GO TO SOMEONE ELSE WHO CAN PUT ANOTHER COUPLE HUNDRED THOUSAND MILES ON IT. I WILL TRY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT COME UP IN A TIMELY MANNER. I HAVE BOTH SETS OF KEYS AND REMOTES. ONE WAS NEVER USED. THANKS FOR LOOKING AND GOOD LUCK!!

I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THE AUCTION EARLY AS IT IS FOR SALE LOCALLY.

Curtain officially comes down on Mercury as dealers remove signage

Mon, 03 Jan 2011

The process of shutting down the Mercury is complete. Ford officially made the decision to close its mid-level brand in June of 2010. In the months that followed, Ford offered its dealers money to stop selling the cars, with production shutting down in September. The last Mercury, a Mariner, rolled off the assembly line in the beginning of October and former spokesperson Jill Wagner said her good-byes to both the car and her job. Now the last piece of the brand has come down as dealers are removing any and all Mercury signage from their lots.

Recharge Wrap-up: Tesla considers Model III SUV and wagon, Ford tears Tesla apart

Mon, Oct 27 2014

Worries over Brazil's electric grid mean EVs are excluded from green car incentives. As part of a new efficiency program, non-plug-in hybrids will be eligible for a reduction in import duties, while EVs and plug-in hybrids will not. Brazil's government is concerned that the country's grid lacks the capacity to handle the increased load from an influx of EVs. Brazil plans to create a new incentive program - perhaps a more inclusive one - when the current one expires at the end of 2015. Read more at Green Car Reports. Tesla could make SUV and wagon derivatives of the upcoming Model III sedan. Tesla's VP of engineering, Chris Porritt, told Auto Express that to reach as many customers as possible, Tesla would consider all its options. "SUVs, estates - who knows?" says Porritt. He also says that while the company is currently focused on products with a broader appeal, another Roadster or other sports car aren't out of the question in the future. Read more at Auto Express. Ford admits to a Tesla Model S teardown. Ford CEO Mark Fields says that after disassembling, reassembling and driving the model S, his company is "very familiar with that product." He also says the Ford has the capability to build a similarly high-tech, long-range electric car. The questions still remains if Ford has plans for such a vehicle, but Fields says that it fits within Ford's "product philosophy." Read more at Business Insider and at USA Today.

2015 Ford F-150 specs revealed, EcoBoost 2.7L to make 325 hp and 375 lb-ft [w/video]

Tue, 22 Jul 2014

Our new man Greg Migliore is in attendance at a Ford media event at the Blue Oval's Dearborn, MI headquarters today, and he's reported in with a handful of the 2015 F-150 stats that we've been dying to know. Ford is slow-playing the news release here, but we can still offer up some interesting output and performance figures after half-year of waiting.
We have all be quite aware that Ford's shift to aluminum construction would save a lot of weight for F-150 models, and the results we're hearing now are duly impressive. For instance: in Super Crew trim, a 2015 F-150 is a whopping 732-pounds lighter than was its closest 2014-model-year equivalent. That's like hauling three middle-aged dudes to your bowling alley's league night for free. Polish your balls, guys.
Ford isn't willing to offer up any actual curb weights just yet, but if we take that 732-pound loss and extrapolate with the 5,128-pound curb weight of the 2014 F-150 Super Crew with the 3.7-liter V6, we can guesstimate that 2015 models will measure out in the 4,400-pound range. That's impressive.
