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

MyFord Touch getting second update, extended warranty
Wed, 28 Nov 2012There is no doubt that Ford has had its hands full fielding complaints with its MyFord Touch and MyLincoln Touch systems these days, but looking to keep its customers happy, Ford is once again upgrading its infotainment systems and extending the warranties. Despite having just sent out updates for its systems back in March, Automotive News says that customers are still complaining about the speed and ease of use.
Vehicles with MyFord Touch will now get a five-year, unlimited-mile warranty, while the MyLincoln Touch will have a six-year, unlimited-mile warranty. Previously, the systems were covered under basic warranties (three-year, 36,000-mile for Ford and four-year, 60,000-miles for Lincoln).
What is being referred to as "version 3.5" for the MyFord Touch and MyLincoln Touch systems will be mailed out (or downloaded) next month for owners of cars without navigation and in January for cars with nav. Owners of hybrids, plug-ins and electric vehicles will get the update sometime in the first quarter of next year.
Galpin Ford GTR1 supercar debuts in Monterey
Fri, 16 Aug 2013Galpin Auto Sports has finally taken the wraps off the car we first previewed back in December, the Galpin Ford GTR1. A few weeks ago, we posted the first hints of just what the GTR1 would be capable of, with Galpin teasing that its 5.4-liter, twin-turbocharged V8 would produce in excess of 1000 horsepower, with a top speed of 225 miles per hour. Package all that in a coachbuilt body, and you have the recipe for one wicked supercar.
The price for the carbon fiber-bodied car is $1,024,000.
Now, we have all the glorious details. Galpin is targeting a production run of six cars, but if interest is strong enough, will expand its initial quote to 24 vehicles. The price for the carbon fiber-bodied car is $1,024,000. Opting for the aluminum bodywork could lower that, although it's not immediately clear by how much.
1964 Ford GT40 prototype to be auctioned in April
Wed, 12 Mar 2014The Ford GT40 owns a firm spot on the list of the greatest American racecars ever made, being the first car from the United States to take an overall win in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. And now Mecum will auction what it claims is second-oldest GT40 still in existence at its Houston sale on April 12.
The story of the GT40 is fascinating. Henry Ford II attempted to buy Ferrari in the early '60s, but Enzo refused. Ford decided if he couldn't have them, then he would beat the Prancing Horse on the track. Ford went to Carroll Shelby and asked him to spearhead the program. The early cars combined a steel monocoque chassis with Ford's 4.2-liter V8 engine pumping out around 350 horsepower. The first prototype made its public debuted on April 1, 1964, at the New York Auto Show.
Shelby kept building prototypes, including GT/104, which is for sale here. This version featured a lighter steel chassis and was raced at Le Mans in 1964. However, a fire forced it to retire. It was then repainted and had a 4.7-liter (289-cubic-inch) engine fitted. The chassis had its best finish at the 1965 Daytona Continental 2,000 Kilometers where it finished third with Bob Bondurant and Ritchie Ginther behind the wheel. Later that season, it was shipped back to Ford where it was restored and displayed at auto shows until 1971 when the automaker sold it. Since then, it has had many private owners.
