Springfield, Illinois, United States
2013 Ford Focus SE
Cut and paste the following link for a more exhaustive view of this vehicle...running, driving and overall condition: http://youtu.be/4r8C095xKrw For your consideration, I am selling my 2013 Ford Focus SE, Hatchback. This vehicle is in excellent condition with 5,450 (five thousand, four-fifty) miles, 2.0 liter inline four cylinder fuel injected DOHC gasoline engine, automatic transmission with console shift, front wheel drive and four wheel anti-lock disc brakes. I am the second owner of this Ford Focus SE and it is an excellent looking, running and driving vehicle which offers a combined 33 plus MPG with approximately 325 (city) to 450 (hwy) mileage range per 12.4 gallon tank of fuel. The 2.0 liter engine is extremely clean, electronic ignition starts immediately without hesitation, runs smoothly and quietly at idle, does not miss or smoke and produces 160 hp and 162 ft-lbs of torgue. The engine is mated to an automatic 6-speed transmission which shifts seamlessly and is very responsive in passing gears. This is a compact/economy car (for insurance purposes) but rides and drives more like a mid-size car with plenty of room for a driver and four passengers, loads of horse-power, responsive handling, excellent braking and produces a ride quality unbeatable for a vehicle in this category. The exterior of this vehicle is nearly flawless and shows extremely well; the paint is beautiful medium blue candy metallic-pearl in very good condition with high gloss and deep shine. The body panels are laser straight with no dents, dings or physical damage. All glass is clean and clear and the power windows raise/lower as anticipated. The wheels are 16" aluminum five spoke in perfect condition with Continental Conti-Procontact tires also in like new condition. The hatchback compartment is very spacious and the spare tire, wheel well and tire tool kit are in unused condition. All exterior lights work and function as they should. The interior feature beige hybrid material, adjustable front bucket seats with lumbar support and a rear bench seat in excellent condition. The carpet is flawless charcoal; the headliner is clean and tight. The dash is in perfect condition as well as the center console and arm rest. Conveniences include: power mirrors, cruise control, remote trunk release; hands free calling, stereo CD player with steering wheel controls and 6 speakers, MP3 auxiliary port, 12 volt adapter, in dash computer, Blue Tooth link, vanity mirror inserts, Destination Guidance Service capable and Sirius XM. The heater warms quickly and the air blows ice cold. All interior gauges and lights function as they should, owner's manual and factory literature is included within the glove compartment as well as two keys with remote locking, trunk release and alarm mode. As noted this vehicle will come with an Illinois issued rebuilt title. Within the first year of purchase, this vehicle side swiped another vehicle causing minor damage to the passenger side rear door and quarter panel. These items were professionally repaired by a reputable local collision center and fully inspected by the IL Secretary of State. As was explained to me at the time of purchase, the original owner had full-replacement coverage and thus the vehicle was replaced by the insurance company which by default labeled this vehicle as rebuilt. I have spoken with and have the contact information for the repair center where the repair was completed and I would be happy to pass this information along to you if you desire further verification. The Ford Focus SE is categorized as an compact/economy hatchback, well appointed, comfortable and reliable. I believe any interested party would agree that this definition applies to the vehicle I am offering for sale; with 5450 original miles, it is extremely close to perfect. This Focus is a no excuses vehicle; synthetic oil/filter are newly changed, 32 point inspection at my local Ford Dealership (all good), the car has been fully detailed, there are no warning lights illuminated on the instrument cluster, this car will need nothing at the time of purchase. It is a very comfortable and extremely easy to operate, own and maintain vehicle. Drive any distance at any time and maintain excellent fuel economy while doing it. I encourage you to inspect this vehicle in person or have this vehicle inspected by any automotive service you deem trustworthy. . .but you will not be disappointed, this is a very nice looking, running and driving car in as-new condition. Please text or call Mark at two one seven, four nine four, two eight seven five, for more information, viewing or test drive. |

2014 Ford Fusion to get 1.5L EcoBoost three-cylinder?
Tue, 09 Apr 2013Just one year after launching the all-new 2013 Fusion, Ford is reportedly set to alter the sedan's powertrain lineup with the addition of a new 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. A member of Blue Oval Forums apparently got their hands on the ordering guide for the 2014 model year Fusion, and this 1.5-liter mill is set to be introduced with late availability.
This lines up with other news about the Chinese-market Mondeo being offered with a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost - a derivative of the 1.0-liter triple that will come to North America under the hood of the Fiesta (note: the 1.0 is also offered in the current Euro-spec Mondeo). In the Chinese application, the larger three-pot engine produces 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, which is very close to the current 1.6-liter inline-four's output numbers of 178 hp and 184 lb-ft.
What's interesting, however, is that the 1.6-liter engine will reportedly still be offered in the Fusion, but only with the six-speed manual transmission. The smaller 1.5-liter EcoBoost will only be mated to a six-speed SelectShift automatic, and will feature start/stop. This means that while the 1.5 is slightly down on power compared to the 1.6, it could easily improve fuel economy numbers, allowing the Fusion to regain the title of having the best mileage in the segment, likely besting the 38 miles per gallon of the Nissan Altima. Currently, the Fusion 1.6 is rated at 23 mpg city and 36 mpg highway.
Ford Explorer is America's new favorite police car
Mon, 24 Mar 2014There is a new vehicle that you should keep an eye out for when you're going a little too fast down the Interstate. Ford's Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility was the bestselling new law enforcement model in the country last year, and signs show that won't be changing anytime soon.
Ford sold 14,086 Interceptor Utilities in 2013, up 140% from the year before, and 10,897 Interceptor Sedans, up 31%, according to USA Today. Overall, the brand's police sales were up 48 percent, and they were enough to boost the company's law enforcement vehicle market share by 9 points to nearly 50 percent.
The success comes just a few years after it made the decision to finally retire the long-serving Crown Victoria-based cruiser for two more modern vehicles. "We had to reinvent the category," said Chris Terry of Ford Communications to Autoblog. The automaker had to convince police departments that a unibody chassis without a V8 could perform better than a model that had been a law enforcement staple for years.
Ford open to diesel, hybrid or electric Mustang? [w/poll]
Sun, 08 Dec 2013The Ford Mustang may not be the first vehicle that comes to mind when you think of environmentally-friendly forms of transportation. The arrival of the turbocharged four-cylinder engine in the new Mustang could do a lot to combat that perception, but the EcoBoost engine may just be the tip of the iceberg in that regard.
Speaking with Ford powertrain boss Bob Fascetti at the reveal of the new Mustang in Australia, GoAuto reports that the Blue Oval automaker is considering offering its latest pony car with a diesel, hybrid or even electric powertrain in the future.
"We're not looking at diesel at the moment, but given where we need to go with fuel consumption we are looking at all our options," said Fascetti. Other options could include a nine- or ten-speed automatic transmission to replace the current six-speed unit in order to help improve fuel economy and emissions for the Mustang, although figures for the current lineup have yet to be revealed.
