Up for sale is my 2002 Ford Taurus SES. The car was used as my company vehicle so although it's got a bunch of highway miles on it (192K) it has been routinely fleet maintained every 3000K with receipts. The SES model is absolutely loaded with everything including the following:
  • Power steering
  • Power brakes
  • Power window
  • Power door locks
  • Power seats
  • Power adjustable pedals
  • Power mirrors
  • Power trunk release
  • CD player w/ concert sound
  • Defrost rear window
  • Defrost side mirrors
  • Key-less entry
  • Cruise control
  • Dimming mirror 
  • Digital compass
  • Leather seats
  • Floor mats
  • Exterior entry lighting
  • Cold A/C 
The car has recently had a complete tune-up including wiper blades, spark plugs, spark plug wires, coil packs, oil change with filter, tranny service with filter, air and oil filter, tire rotation, as well as new brakes on all four wheels including drums, rotors, calipers, shoes, pads and rubber lines. The fuel pump was replaced about 10K miles ago. Please note, this is the car with the good motor in it. If you are in the market for a Taurus or Sable, do yourself the favor and stay away from the cars that have the emblem on both front fenders that reads "24 Valve DOHC" as these motors were notoriously problematic. 

This car is FAR from being perfect and it most certainly has it's fair share of dings, scratches, bumps and chips for a twelve year old car. The interior although clean, also shows wear on the seats and door panels but the dash, steering wheel, headliner, etc. are all in good condition. It has been a good reliable and comfortable car for us over the years, everything works on the car, all the gauges operate in the normal range and really all that is needed is a good home. If you need reliable transportation for not a lot of money, this is the car. Please look over the photos as the pictures serve as the description. Please note, I have a 100% clean and clear title in my hand, not some salvage title, not a rebuilt title, not a theft recovery title. 

Zero feedback bidders MUST contact me prior to bidding. Do not place a bid if you do not have the means to complete the transaction. Car is being sold "as is" and "where is" so it is 100% the buyers responsibility to inspect the vehicle PRIOR to the auction ending. I will help the winning bidder with transportation if needed, but this is at the buyers expense or you can fly in and drive home as well. A $500. non-refundable deposit is due within 24 hours and the balance must be paid with-in seven (7) days from auctions end. Please contact me with any questions and thanks for your interest.

Ford acquires Livio to bolster connectivity biz

Thu, 26 Sep 2013

Ford Motor Company has announced the acquisition of Livio, a Ferndale, MI-based software development company best known for aftermarket in-car connectivity devices, but also as a supplier of technology for proprietary systems for automakers. Livio, co-founded by Sigal and Massimo Baldini, will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Ford Global Technologies.
"With the additional expertise Livio provides us, Ford intends to continue to lead the next generation of in-car connectivity with technology advancements that give consumers more options to access their devices on the go," said Paul Mascarenas, chief technical officer and vice president, Ford Research and Innovation, in a statement.
Ford is clearly trying to beef up its in-house tech capability around telematics and device connectivity. While the Blue Oval has been a leader in these areas with SYNC and MyFord Touch in terms of getting the systems into as many cars as possible, the execution of the applications have been criticized for glitches.

Britain orders 10,000 ventilators from F1/McLaren/Mercedes/Ford/Rolls-Royce/Airbus

Mon, Mar 30 2020

Paramedics and ambulance personnel get instructions from a command unit outside London's ExCel Centre arena, which is being turned into a 4,000 bed temporary hospital called NHS Nightingale to deal with coronavirus patients. The hospital is due to open Monday, March 30. / AP     LONDON — Britain has ordered 10,000 ventilators from a consortium of leading aerospace, engineering and Formula One racing companies which will start production this week in response to an urgent government call for industry to help save lives. The 27-strong team, including Airbus, BAE Systems, Ford and Rolls-Royce, have joined forces to ramp up production of a ventilator made by Smiths Group, which supports those with complications from COVID-19. The consortium, which also includes seven Formula One teams including McLaren and Mercedes, home to World Champion Lewis Hamilton, said they had pulled staff off existing projects to meet the national need. Some 1,228 people have died from coronavirus in the United Kingdom and a senior health official said on Saturday the country would be doing well if it manages to keep the death toll below 20,000. "This consortium brings together some of the most innovative companies in the world," Dick Elsy, the head of the consortium, said in a statement. "I am confident this consortium has the skills and tools to make a difference and save lives." The United Kingdom, which initially only had 5,000 ventilators available in its National Health Service, has been trying to secure additional supplies after realising it needed 30,000 to cope with the peak of the outbreak. Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who is now in isolation in Downing Street after testing positive for coronavirus, made an emergency appeal earlier this month for manufacturers to retool their production lines and start making specialist health equipment including ventilators. Britain now has about 8,000 ventilators, with another 8,000 on order from international manufacturers that are due in coming weeks. Last week it placed an order for a newly-designed model from the vacuum cleaner company Dyson that will need to be approved by the health regulator. Mercedes part of a separate effort, too Separately on Monday a second consortium including Mercedes Formula One and other F1 teams said it had developed in less than a week a new version of a breathing aid that can help coronavirus patients.

Ford hybrids getting update to improve fuel economy

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

Ford has announced that it is introducing "calibration updates designed to improve on-road fuel economy for owners of the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid, 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid and 2013 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid."
We can speculate that these changes are at least due in part to lawsuits over mileage claims of hybrid vehicles. The automaker is enhancing 2013 models starting in August by raising their electric cruising speed to 85 miles per hour from 62 mph, optimizing the use of active grille shutters and the climate control system, shortening the engine warm-up period by 50 percent and reducing electric fan speed to minimize the fan's energy consumption.
It bears mentioning that Ford is doing pretty well in the US electrified vehicle market this year. The company claims to have grown its share in the segment by 12 points to 16 percent while taking a high number of Toyota Prius trade-ins in the process. Conversely, Toyota has experienced a five-percent drop in new-Prius sales over the same period. Additionally, Ford states that it has increased its share of the US vehicle market by one percent this year, more than any full-line automaker.
