2004 Ford Taurus Sel Wagon on 2040-cars
Tampa, Florida, United States
This is a beautiful Silver Frost Metallic 2004 Ford Taurus SEL wagon in excellent condition with only 45,000 miles. I purchased this vehicle in June of 2006 from Autoway Ford in Brooksville, FL. and have used it as a daily driver. It is extremely reliable and with the luggage rack on the roof and the internal cargo area it's great for moving supplies for your home projects. It's Front wheel drive with dual front air bags. The Ford Taurus has been one of the 10 best selling vehicles in the U.S. and rated as one of the best family cars in terms of safety. In fact safety, comfort and reliability are the trademarks of this vehicle. It has a 3.0 Duratec liter V6 aluminum block ( a $1200 option hwhen new ) with 201 horsepower and 4 speed automatic transmission. This wagon provides up to 81.3 cubic feet of cargo space and this SEL model is the top of the line offered for Taurus wagons. It has automatic climate control, power adjustable pedals, a leather wrapped steering wheel, AM/FM cassette player with 6-disc CD changer, four wheel disc brakes, 7 spoke machined aluminum wheels, keypad entry, dark paledo wood-trimmed interior, adjustable luggage rack and a unique bumper shape with step pads at the rear. In addition, it has a flip-up rear window in its tailgate which is useful if you just want to reach in and grab something quickly without opening the tailgate. In addition, this vehicle has dual color keyed remote power adjustable exterior rearview mirrors. These SEL wagons are better equipped than the sedans as ABS is standard and it has a rear anti-roll bar for better handling. This particular wagon comes with the vinyl cover that rolls up and covers the rear cargo area which you don't often see on these wagons so you can conceal any valuables in the cargo space if you wish. ( please see the pictures ) The exterior metallic paint is in very good condition and the body has no dents or dings since I have always been very careful to park it away from other vehicles when grocery shopping. It has been senior owned and operated since purchased in Brooksville, FL and has been a joy to drive. I am selling my wagon since I have medical issues to deal with otherwise it would remain in the family. All of the window glass is immaculate with no cracks or chips and the power windows all operate as they should. The engine is always very responsive and the acceleration is good when you need to merge with traffic. The interior is in excellent condition and the leather is supple and well preserved since I have always maintained it with leather conditioner. All of the instruments work and the interior lighting at night is very well positioned and marked for night time driving. The floor carpeting is in terrific condition since it has been covered with rubber mats and vacuumed on a regular basis. This wagon would suit anyone since it so reliable, safe and has excellent performance. As you can see I have an excellent buyer/seller record with E-Bay and I am an honest person who just wants to find a good home for my car. The vehicle is being sold " as is where is " and has to be picked up from the sellers home location. I will require a $1000 deposit via Paypal within 48 hours of auction close. All sales are final. No buyers remorse since this car is close to 10 years old and comes with no warranty. I have tried to describe this car to be the best of my ability and the pictures attest to it's condition. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask and I will be pleased to answer them for you. The payment balance will be due in full within 7 days of the auction close and the following forms of payment will be accepted.

2015 Mustang-based Saleen S302 to boast as much as 640 hp
Tue, 23 Sep 2014The Ford Mustang is obviously a famous performance vehicle in its own right, but it often works even better as a platform for the aftermarket to upgrade. With the all-new 2015 model just now hitting the scene, the famous tuners at Saleen are getting their improvements for the new pony car ready for the world. After recently teasing it, the specs for its fresh S302 model are officially here, along with a first look at it in profile.
Of course, the biggest question on everyone's mind is how much power the company can get from the Mustang's V8. With the 2015 V8 model rated at 435 horsepower and 400 pound-feet, Saleen expects to bump the Ford factory numbers slightly to 450 hp and 410 lb-ft in naturally aspirated form, or with the benefit of a supercharger, it will rocket the engine's output figures to 640 hp and 565 lb-ft. No matter which powerplant a buyer chooses, there are a wide variety of available final-drive ratios with a six-speed manual or automatic gearbox.
Available as either a coupe or convertible forms, Saleen will offer its S302 in three trim levels - White Label, Yellow Label and Black Label. The White Label is the only naturally aspirated one of the bunch, but it still benefits from upgrades like a new exhaust, limited-slip differential, improved suspension, heat extractor hood and rear wing.
2015 Ford Focus ST gets sleeker style, improved dynamics
Thu, 26 Jun 2014The Brits don't really have a major auto show these days. Not in a conventional sense, anyway, with stationary vehicles under floodlights in a closed exposition space. What they do have, you could argue, is much better: the Goodwood Festival of Speed, where the public can view the latest machinery not only under an open sky, but in motion as well, speeding up Lord March's front lawn. And this year, British automakers are rolling in with some very enticing new metal.
In the past few days alone we've confirmed the McLaren 650S GT3 and MSO, Jaguar F-Type Project 7, Range Rover Sport SVR and Ariel Ace will all be revealed for the first time at Goodwood this weekend. Ford isn't, strictly speaking, a British automaker, but for all its history in the UK, it might as well. So it's chosen Goodwood as the site to unveil its refreshed Focus ST.
The upgraded Blue Oval hot hatch still packs a 2.0-liter turbo four with 252 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque driving through a six-speed manual to the front wheels, so we're not expecting much change in measurable performance. But Ford has given the new Focus ST a new front suspension setup and a new electric power-assisted steering rack that combine to promise improved handling.
May 2016: FCA wins, Ford and GM stumble on weak car volumes
Wed, Jun 1 2016The May 2016 sales numbers are in, and it looks as though FCA is getting some vindication for boldly cancelling two slow-selling car models. Meanwhile, Ford saw overall sales dip and GM's May volume took a big dive versus the same month in 2015. While Marchionne's decision to axe the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Dart has drawn criticism as being short-sighted, it's working for FCA so far. Although the Dart and 200 aren't out of production yet and no capacity has been shifted to crossover or trucks, May's numbers show that the emphasis on Jeep and Ram models makes sense right now. FCA's US sales rose 1 percent last month compared to May 2015, putting the year-to-date total at 955,186 vehicles, an increase of 6 percent compared to the same period last year. Standouts included the Jeep Renegade, Compass, and Patriot, and the Fiat 500X. Ram pickup sales were down 3 percent. And your fun fact is that Alfa Romeo sales were up precisely 10 percent, for a total of 44 4Cs sold versus 40 in the same month last year. At FoMoCo, the Ford brand took a hit to the tune of 6.4 percent from May 2015 to 2016, registering 226,190 sales last month. Lincoln showed improvement on its modest numbers, going from 9,174 to 9,807, a 6.9 percent increase. Overall, Ford was down 5.9 percent for the month to 235,997; despite the slump, year-to-date total Ford sales are up 4.2 percent to 1,112,939. Strong sellers included Escape, Expedition, F-Series, and Transit - big stuff. Most small and/or efficient models (Fiesta, Focus, Fusion, C-Max) saw sales slides. Fusion sales were also down, likely due to effects of model changeover to the freshened 2017 model. Ford has promised four new crossovers and SUVs by 2020 and if things keep trending this way the company will be able to sell them, but things could change in the next four years. GM saw the worst of it for domestic brands. Retail and fleet sales were down for each of the four divisions, with the May 2016 total dropping 18 percent to 240,450 vehicles. GM's year-to-date sales are down 5.0 percent in 2016 to 1,183,705. Both the Sierra and Silverado were down significantly, and the majority of Chevy, Buick, GMC, and Cadillac nameplates saw sales decreases, with both small cars and larger utilities included. Not even big stuff could help GM this month, it seems. We'll have more on the rest of the industry's May sales as those figures trickle in.
