2003 Ford Excursion Limited, V10, Lifted 37s on 2040-cars
Harvest, Alabama, United States
This is my ONE owner Excursion with less than 80k miles. I purchased it in Alabama and have lived here the entire time. Everything works as it should, nothing needs to be fixed. Rear passenger brake caliper has slow seep from banjo bolt. Recent 2500 mile trip resulted in loss of a couple ounces tops. Haven't bothered doing anything to it. No leaks elsewhere. This vehicle has been well maintained. Oil changes every 2500-3500 miles with Motorcraft 5w-20. All other fluids have been changed at least once. New fuel filter twice. New Battery in 2013. The rear expansion valve was replaced in early 2012 and AC system was recharged. Both front and rear systems work perfectly. Brakes have never been changed and probably could be but they stop well and make no noise at this moment. The truck was lifted in 2004 and 35s were installed. The rear end was changed in 2009 from 3.73s to 4.56s. Mileage dropped a little but acceleration improved and made it more fun to drive. Gears were broken in for 500 miles and the fluid was changed and tolerances checked. No noise nor problems. I had a flat tire and changed the rears to used 37s, but the front are still 35s. It is 2WD so tire difference is not an issue. Then I got new tires all around, still 35s in front and 37s in rear. 37s will not clear in front without cutting or more lift. Tires have less than 10k miles. Truck has a 5gal air tank, pump and Triple Horn Train Horns. Horn is switched with stock horn operated by OEM horn switch. OEM radio has been removed and everything upgraded. Polk separates and an Orion (old school) sub installed. The HCCA amp got tired and an Alpine was installed but the Orion SX still powers the rest of speakers. In dash DVD with rear AV IN/out is also installed for Game Systems or more Monitors. It also has a 400W inverter installed near amps for power to monitors and game systems. I changed all 10 plugs and boots before it hit 70k. Didn't change COPs but rotated the back 2 as they see more heat and fail first. Might help prevent that issue. Truck was involved in a minor crash on April Fools day (in 2005 I think) where someone idles into the rear bumper. Damage was less than $500 and it was never repaired. Can barely see little dent in drivers rear bumper near reverse sensor. No other accidents. All reverse sensors work and has receiver installed as all of them do. I have a hitch mounted spare carrier and a spare 35" tire. I have a couple spare 37s if wanted as well, no extra rims. One rim has damage from the flat but is only cosmetic. A run away shopping cart or something hit passenger door. No abrasion to paint but has a small dent/imperfection. Has only one door ding as it is never parked near other vehicles without taking 2 spots. Ding is standard door ding and located near fuel fill door. It has a Flowmaster Super 40 single in dual out muffler with dual 5" tips. Carpet has always been covered with mats and is close to new. No mods to engine or trans. Most of the standard black plastic has been covered with Line X. Running boards, grill guard, lower front valance, rear lift glass plastic and wiper, rear plastic bumper cover. It could use a refresh as is not perfect, but better than grey. Windows tinted all around. I might have forgotten something but listed all the bad. Truck gets driven rarely so mileage will increase. I use it mainly as a travel vehicle and will drive it anywhere without worry. In 2013 we drove it to SD twice and to FL once. Can help with delivery for price of gas and return flight if needed. Excursion gets a consistent 10-11 mpg in the city and 12-14 on the road. You may get a little better on the road as I always set cruise at 9 over. Was forced to do 60mph for about 100 miles and it returned almost 16mpgs. I can take any pics you need, just ask. I might have left something out so ask away. |

2015 Ford Mustang will tell authorities how you crashed and if you were belted [w/video]
Sat, 28 Jun 2014When the 2015 Ford Mustang hits dealers, it will be with a new batch of features that will power up Sync's 911 Assist feature, and provide an even greater degree of information to first responders in the event of an accident.
911 Assist will already make a phone call, via a Bluetooth-connected phone, should you bin your car. The automatic message to first responders is a pre-recorded blurb from Ford. With the new enhancements, though, emergency personnel can learn about the maximum change in velocity and whether the crash involved a front, rear, side or a rollover impact. 911 Assist will also send information about how many seat belts were in use and if airbags deployed, allowing more accurate dispatch of resources.
"Sync will only broadcast relevant information to save time, and it constructs a very efficient message for the operator," said David Hatton, the global project leader with Ford Connected Services. "After the introductory message, the voice line opens automatically and occupants can speak directly with the operator via Sync's hands-free functionality."
Recharge Wrap-up: Ford steals Best Green Brand spot from Toyota, EV buyer survey goes online
Wed, Jun 25 2014Chevrolet is one of the Top Global Green Brands of 2014, according to brand consultancy firm Interbrand. Chevy ranks number 32 on the list, which cover brands across a wide variety of segments. The report measures brand perception and brand performance, and the gap between the two is small for Chevrolet. "The company is not only actively demonstrating its environmental commitment," says Interbrand CEO Jez Frampton. "It's communicating those efforts in an authentic way that resonates with customers." Chevrolet cites its Spark EV, Volt and Cruze models as reason for its green cred. This is the first time Toyota didn't take the top spot. Being 32nd is good and all, but other automotive brands ranked much higher than the Bowtie. Ford, Toyota, Honda and Nissan took the top four spots in the report, respectively, with BMW, Volkswagen and Mercedes-Benz all besting Chevrolet. The big takeaway here is that Ford topped the list. In the Top Global Green Brand list's four-year history, this is the first time Toyota didn't take the top spot. Ford was second on the list last year, and 15th in 2012. "Ford embodies everything the business of the future must be: efficient, visionary, flexible, adept at problem-solving, cooperative, and focused on creating shared value," Interbrand says on its website. "From unveiling a first-of-its-kind solar-powered vehicle, the C-MAX Solar Energi Concept, to partnering with peers across sectors to do the seemingly impossible - like creating bio-plastic out of tomato fiber with Heinz-Ford is showing us what's possible." It bears mentioning that Ford's most recent MPG adjustments came after the study was conducted. Ford is also making the news for its 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine earning International Engine of the Year for the third straight year. Awarded Best Engine Under 1.0 Liter, the turbocharged three-cylinder motor earned high praise from judges. "This year's competition was the fiercest yet, but the 1.0-liter EcoBoost continues to stand out for all the right reasons – great refinement, surprising flexibility and excellent efficiency," said International Engine of the Year co-chairman Dean Slavnich. "The 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine is one of the finest examples of powertrain engineering." The 123-horsepower engine powers the Fiesta 1.0-liter EcoBoost, and will be available in a version of the Ford Focus in the US later this year. See more about the award in the press release, below.
Exceptionally rare '65 Ford GT40 Roadster prototype up for auction
Sat, 14 Jun 2014Think of mid-engined supercars and your mind is bound to gravitate towards Europe, but the United States has been known to make a handful from time to time - exceptional vehicles from the likes of Vector, SSC, Mosler, Hennessey, and Saleen. But long before any of those came around, Ford famously became obsessed with beating Ferrari at its own game, leading to the development of the iconic GT40.
The story is well known, sending Ford to the checkered flag at Le Mans four times in a row in the late 1960s. Ford and Shelby also built over 100 for public consumption, but just four of them were roadsters. Of those only one remains in original condition, and now that exceedingly rare example going up for auction.
Consigned to RM Auctions for its mid-August sale during Pebble Beach weekend in Monterey, California, this 1965 model is the first GT40 Roadster built. It was used as a development and demonstration vehicle for Ford and Shelby. Carroll Shelby himself drove Henry Ford II in this very car during one of many test and demo events, this time held for Ford's board of directors in Los Angeles.
