I am selling my 2001 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer All Wheel Driver ( AWD )SUV, I am only selling it because I am getting married on September 14th and I am hoping to free up some money for it. I have four other vehicles hence the low miles. This Explorer is fully loaded, it has factory leather seats ( not heated ), sunroof that works as it should, the factory compass and temperature guage works as it should- you can see it in the pictures along with the sunroof. It has an aftermarket Pioneer CD player and it also has a  6 disc cd changer that came with it from the factory in the arm rest, it was working before I put the aftermark CD player in it.

The Exterior: As you can see it has a 4 inch lift that was professionally installed in 2008 it does have a newer set of meaty Hankook tires. The paint and body are in good shape it does have a few typical dents and dings from being driven. However there is NO RUST on the body and the undercarrage is very clean and rust free as well, which you can see in the pics. I have been very meticulous about keeping it clean and waxed. The factory rims have also been treated and cleaned every year and still look sharp. I do have 2 spare tires and rims for the Explorer, you will also note the extras. This Explorer comes with an aftermarket grill guard and top luggage rack also a few additional lights that do work, the ones on the grill work on a switch- the ones on the luggage rack will need to be hooked back up

The Interior: The interior is good shape, showing typical wear for being 12 years old and being used as family vehicle, I have kept it clean and vaccumed, also treated with Armorall, The leather seats are in good shape, however the drivers seat does have a small crack on the upper right hands side which you can see in the pics. This Explorer is also equiped with font and side airbags, dual climate control for the front and back. I also still have the factory cargo shield for the back. It does not have the 3rd row seating.

The motor: Is a 302 5.0L V8, It does have an upgraded K&N Air intake, the oil has been changed as it should. The battery is 2 years old, but does not have any problems. The transmission shifts as it should, the brakes are newer and all work as they should. The exhuast may or may not need to be replaced in the near future, it does have a slight barley noticable noise at low idle, however it does disipate once you put it in drive and take off.

Hopefully I have answered any questions,I have described this vehicle the best I can please keep in mind it is 12 years old, it is in good shape but you are not bidding on a brand new vehicle it has been a very good vehicle for me, very reliable and great in snow and ice, especially in significant accumulations. I have taken my family of four on many long trips with out hesitation and I would still do the same. I live close to Peoria Illinois, and Rock Island and I am about 2 hours south of Chicago. I would be willing to meet winning bidder if it helps with in a reasonable distance from my house, I will accept payments in cash or certified check ( but will need to speak to your bank for exchanging). Feel free to email me with any questions.

Thanks for looking

Ford and 'Dirty Jobs' pitchman Mike Rowe part ways [w/videos]

Thu, 20 Feb 2014

Former 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.

Which electric cars can charge at a Tesla Supercharger?

Sun, Jul 9 2023

The difference between Tesla charging and non-Tesla charging. Electrify America; Tesla Tesla's advantage has long been its charging technology and Supercharger network. Now, more and more automakers are switching to Tesla's charging tech. But there are a few things non-Tesla drivers need to know about charging at a Tesla station. A lot has hit the news cycle in recent months with regard to electric car drivers and where they can and can't plug in. The key factor in all of that? Whether automakers switched to Tesla's charging standard. More car companies are shifting to Tesla's charging tech in the hopes of boosting their customers' confidence in going electric.  Here's what it boils down to: If you currently drive a Tesla, you can keep charging at Tesla charging locations, which use the company's North American Charging Standard (NACS), which has long served it well. The chargers are thinner, more lightweight and easier to wrangle than other brands.  If you currently drive a non-Tesla EV, you have to charge at a non-Tesla charging station like that of Electrify America or EVgo — which use the Combined Charging System (CCS) — unless you stumble upon a Tesla charger already equipped with the Magic Dock adapter. For years, CCS tech dominated EVs from everyone but Tesla.  Starting next year, if you drive a non-Tesla EV (from the automakers that have announced they'll make the switch), you'll be able to charge at all Supercharger locations with an adapter. And by 2025, EVs from some automakers won't even need an adaptor.  Here's how to charge up, depending on which EV you have:  Ford 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. Tim Levin/Insider Ford was the earliest traditional automaker to team up with Tesla for its charging tech. Current Ford EV owners — those driving a Ford electric vehicle already fitted with a CCS port — will be able to use a Tesla-developed adapter to access Tesla Superchargers starting in the spring. That means that, if you own a Mustang Mach-E or Ford F-150 Lightning, you will need the adapter in order to use a Tesla station come 2024. But Ford will equip its future EVs with the NACS port starting in 2025 — eliminating the need for any adapter. Owners of new Ford EVs will be able to pull into a Supercharger station and juice up, no problem. General Motors Cadillac Lyriq. Cadillac GM will also allow its EV drivers to plug into Tesla stations.

Ex-PR chief Vines accuses Ford of bugging cars, phones

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

Jason Vines, former head of communications at Ford among other automakers, is accusing the Blue Oval of bugging his company phone and his car during the Firestone tire recall for the Explorer in 2001. The allegations have come to light in Vines' upcoming book What Did Jesus Drive? Crisis PR in Cars, Computers and Christianity.
According to The Detroit News, which has an advance copy of the book, Vines (pictured above) claims that after leaving the company, someone with security within Ford advised him that he had been bugged around the time of the recall. The allegations don't stop there, though. Vines further contends that he might not have been the only one to get this treatment, noting that then-general counsel John Rintamaki also believed he was being listened to.
According to The Detroit News, even if it had been a company phone, recording Vines without his knowledge still would have been a felony under Michigan law.
