***PRIVATE SELLER, I AM NOT A DEALER*** I'm selling my 2002 Ford/Mercury Taurus Wagon SEL-Deluxe, which is in Mint Condition! This 2002 Ford Taurus Wagon body style has become a hard to find 8 passenger vehicle. You get the best of both worlds, roomy like an SUV but the comfortable ride of a car and with great fuel economy. The Ford Taurus Wagon drives great, it rides very nice and smooth like a new vehicle. The exterior is the original factory paint it's called Matador Red and it has a beautiful clear coat shine with no fading, no hits and/or dents on it, but just a few scratches on the rear bumper that was already there when I bought the car. The interior is the original factory gray leather with no tears or rips, the floors inside are spotless with no stains, no fading, and no rips also the original floor mats when the car was new are spotless too. You will be very pleased when you see how clean & nice the interior is for being a 2002 which still has that original clean leather smell, and it's been a NON-SMOKER vehicle. It's roomy inside for 7 people and it can hold the 8th person in the front seat since the center console folds-up and converts to a seat if needed. The engine performance is Rock solid, runs like a champ with no issues what-so-ever & no leaks plus good fuel economy (I get 21-24 City & 25-28 Highway) and the transmission is Rock solid and smooth you don't even feel it shifting & no leaks. The A/C system is Ice Cold & no leaks. The Taurus wagon is over all a solid, dependable, reliable and as good as new and ready to go anywhere in the U.S.,Canada or Mexico..!! The Taurus wagon is great for any small or large family, a retired couple, and for anyone that likes plenty of room for long trips and/or if your car-pooling. It's a great vehicle too if your putting to many miles on your current lease and/or your lease is ending soon and you want to take sometime off on car payments. (It's also a Pedal adjustment switch this feature moves the brake & gas pedal away from you or closer to you) this is only on the SEL Models.

I'm a proud US Navy Veteran served 6 years I'm not here to over sell you on this car, I'm just stating the facts of the cars condition. I'm also not here to waste your time but you will like the condition and the way it looks in-person..! I want you to be very comfortable, happy, and secure with your purchase as the car is being sold “AS-IS” with a Clean clear Title (Vin#1FAFP59U72A162915) Superb Condition with only 107K miles. My wife & I purchased this vehicle about 9-10 months ago and just sat in my garage until my F-150 lease ended and just a short time ago had the Taurus registered in Florida. We've used the Taurus on several trips to visit our second oldest son at Florida State University, and visit family & friends up in Northern Florida/Georgia. The previous owners lived in North Carolina and moved down to Miami, FL. We have kept it very clean & neat and we take great pride with our vehicles always looking & running their best. The Taurus Wagon SEL is much cleaner and mechanically reliable then other Taurus's & Sable's for sale. Again the car looks better in-person then it does in the pictures and once you see it you'll will not be disappointed and it will give you many more great years. I have maintained everything up-to date that needed to be serviced including the the 100k servicing. Just keep up with the normal services needed as all cars are required to do, basically from this point on, it's just the oil changes & tire rotations.

Ken Block and friends race light in silly-beautiful Castrol commercial

Wed, 28 May 2014

How does one make fast, loud, drifting cars better? Well, you can add more fast, loud, drifting cars or you can add lasers. Either or, really. In this case, Castrol did the right thing and added both, creating a highly stylized commercial for its Edge Titanium motor oil starring South African racer Adrian Zaugg, BMW factory driver Augusto Farfus, Audi DTM and Le Mans staple Mike Rockenfeller and some bloke named Ken Block.
Their cars? No surprise, but Block is in his Ford Fiesta GRC, while Zaugg samples a Lamborghini Aventador and Farfus and Rockenfeller drive along party lines, with a BMW M4 and an Audi R8, respectively. And those cars look good, too, thanks to the creative light and laser work on display.
Take a look below for the video from Castrol.

The U-2 spy plane needs high-performance cars to help land

Thu, Oct 15 2015

Typically, aircraft deploy their landing gear from three main points. Most military aircraft, for example, deploy two gears at the back and one forward, like a tricycle. Some civilian aircraft flip the layout, with two in front and one in back - tail-draggers. The U-2 Dragon Lady is wildly different than any of these. With a 103-foot wingspan but a body that's just 63-feet long, the layout of the U-2 makes a traditional landing setup infeasible. Instead, the U-2 utilizes a pair of wheels, one up front and one in back. With such a bizarre layout, landings are so tough that since the U-2's earliest flights at Area 51, the US Air Force has used high-performance chase cars to guide the pilot down safely. The landing process isn't over there, though. As this video from Sploid shows, balancing out the aircraft to fit the detachable "pogos" – think training wheels for spy planes – is a comical procedure requiring a number of airman using their full body weight to even out the U-2. This video also recaps some of the great vehicles that have served as chase vehicles for this legendary spy plane. They include Chevrolet El Caminos, and the Fox-body Ford Mustangs so favored by the California Highway Patrol. For the last several years, the USAF has utilized products from General Motors, using fourth-generation Chevy Camaros, before switching over to the Pontiac GTO and most recently, the awesome Pontiac G8. It's fair to say that if you're a gearhead in the Air Force, this is the job you want. Check out the video, embedded up top.

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost

Fri, 16 May 2014

Earlier this week, Ford invited us to Charlotte, NC, to ride in an all-new 2015 Mustang fitted with its turbocharged 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder. It's the first forced-induction, four-cylinder ponycar for the Blue Oval since the sun set on the 1986 Mustang SVO. We jumped at the opportunity, as only a handful of people have ever been in the passenger seat of this new car, and most automotive media won't get as close as we did until this fall.
As we revealed in our Deep Dive, Ford will slot this new turbocharged four as premium powerplant between its naturally aspirated 3.7-liter V6 and the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8. At last mention, the automaker said the direct-injected, all-aluminum engine will develop 305 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, returning the best fuel economy of the three powerplants in the process. History buffs will note that those figures are appreciably stouter than the 200 horses and 240 lb-ft that the '86 SVO realized out of the same displacement, and the latter's figures were hugely impressive at the time. On paper, the new EcoBoost four looks to be a good fit for most owners who want to balance performance with efficiency - we were eager to see how it felt from the passenger seat.
