For your consideration is our 2002 ford Taurus lx. I picked this up for my oldest son at a state of Connecticut surplus auction 4 or 5 years ago. The state of CT maintained the car very well but it did come with numerous exterior dings and dents that you will see in the pictures. The nicks never bothered us as we just wanted a safe, reliable, efficient vehicle for our boy. This car has been very dependable for us and will make a great car for its new owner.
I've spared no expense maintaining this car. It has four newer matching tires with 75% or more tread. I've been good about changing the oil end fluids on time using premium oil. It has new rotors and brake pads all the way around and stops on a dime. We recently replaced the starter, charged the air conditioning system, and did a complete service with new oil, oil filter, air filter, spark plugs, spark plug wires, and windshield wipers. The car runs as good or better than new with no leaks, vibrations, noises, or rattles.
The interior is very clean and never smoked in. Other than the state supplied nicks on the outside, you'd never know the car is 10 years old. It comes with a nice pioneer stereo system that will link to your ipod or mp3 player. We always know when he's pulling in the driveway because the stereo thump precedes him.
The car is surprisingly good on gas for a mid size sedan.. I think he gets high 20's on the highway and low/mid 20's around town. The front wheel drive and good all season tires make this car amazing in bad weather.
As for the negatives, there really is nothing to mention other than the exterior dents and scratches. There's virtually no rust or mechanical issues to mention. Bid confidently knowing you're getting a safe, dependable, well maintained vehicle. The winning bidder can pick this up and drive it across country with no worries.
This is a no reserve auction. Cash at pickup is strongly preferred though paypal is ok if you must. Please plan to conclude this transaction within 7 days of auction close.

Ford of Europe celebrates Mondeo's 20th anniversary
Wed, 25 Sep 2013Ford's European operations are celebrating a milestone of sorts as the Mondeo, the Blue Oval's bread-and-butter D-segment sedan in the old country, celebrates its 20th anniversary. The mid-sizer, which was sold in the US for a short time as the Contour, has been a far more popular vehicle in Europe - even receiving regular praise from one Jeremy Clarkson.
Narrated by Cockney actor Ray Winstone, the video goes through the Mondeo's years and how it's evolved from 1993 to the as-yet-unreleased fifth-generation model, which is essentially the same as the Ford Fusion that's sold in America. Take a look below for the full video from Ford of Europe.
Ford confirms launch of new Tourneo vans and Ecosport in Europe for Geneva
Sun, 24 Feb 2013We've already seen plenty of what the Geneva Motor Show will have in store for us in less than two weeks, but most of the confirmed debuts that were announced so far have generally been luxury or performance cars. Ford, on the other hand, will be showing off a couple of its new family-friendly models for European buyers to enjoy.
On the larger side of things, the full range of Tourneo vans (shown above) will be on display, including the introduction of the new Tourneo Courier model, but Ford will also be showing off the all-new EcoSport crossover, which is based on the automaker's Global B platform and will be positioned beneath the Kuga, better known here as the Escape. The subcompact EcoSport was originally unveiled at the Beijing Motor Show last April.
Ford reveals concept trucks that ultimately became Atlas
Wed, 03 Apr 2013The Ford Atlas Concept was one of the quiet success stories of the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, and now Ford has given us a quick glimpse as to how that creation came to be. Designers actually combined two early sketches to build the Atlas. One, called the Bullet Train, is a futuristic, aerodynamic creation, while the other, aptly named the Locomotive, features the squared off proportions we're familiar with.
Once designers settled on the truck's proportions, they began nailing down exactly which attributes they wanted the final design to have. The Concept's notched windshield originated as a forked glass roof that seamlessly transitioned into the windscreen.
Likewise, designers wanted to fit the truck's tailgate with a storage compartment for tools and a first aid kit, but settled on the dual-purpose step/cargo cradle. Interestingly enough, the concept's active aero shutter wheels actually originated in some of the earliest sketches. Check out the photos and slides here for a closer look.
