There is NO reserve on this vehicle-the starting price is BOTTOM LINE what we will accept for this vehicle-DO NOT MAKE AN OFFER! Again, this vehicle has 91,660 original miles. The vehicle has no notable body damage or rust-just normal wear-n-tear scratches, dings, and dents-nothing major! The vehicle has power locks, windows, mirrors, trunk release, power driver's seat lumbar/recline, power cut-off switch (push switch and remove ignition key and car will stay on, however, car cannot be placed in drive and stolen), rear defrost, dome light, interior lights, and spotlight ALL IN GOOD FUNCTIONING CONDITION. The vehicle also has manual tilt steering wheel, power adjustable gas pedal, AM/FM stereo, and air conditioning all in good working order. The vehicle is equipped with cruise control, however, we did not use it often, so we do not know if it works (probably works). The vehicle has driver's seat and passenger-seat air bags. Lastly, the vehicle's exterior lights, lamps, signals, wipers, defrost, etc. are all in working order. There are NO illuminated warning lights on in the dash indicating any malfunctions with the vehicle. Lastly, the vehicle's tires are in good condition (they were replaced 072013 and in good condition). The vehicle shows normal wear-n-tear regarding scratches and dings, however, there are NO major imperfections in the vehicle's body. The exterior of the roof has a couple of "plugs" from holes drilled in the roof for the light bar that was attached and removed. The police de3cals were all removed from the exterior, however, glue is very slightly visible. A good detailing should eliminate the glue from the decals left over. The interior roof liner has a smaller hole cut in between the driver and passenger seat, which once housed a police camera system, now removed. The rear removable seat (vinyl) is brand new, however dirty from being in storage-it will need to be wiped off. The front seats are in good condition with no tearing, however, they will need to be cleaned. The interior vinyl flooring is in good condition, however, again, will need a good cleaning. The following reflects the service record on the vehicle for "more major items:" Radiator replaced on 033111, A/C Condenser replaced on 041811, Blend Door Actuator & Motor Assembly replaced 050911, Cooling Fan Sender, Motor & Fan Assembly replaced 060711, Air Bag Jewel/Warning Lamp, Water Pump Assembly, and Intake Manifold/Thermostat replaced on 062411, Driver's Seat Belt Buckle Assembly replaced 112911, Manifold Intake, Gaskets, Thermostat, and Ignition Wire replaced 021712, Alternator replaced 032912, Tires, Left Inner Tie Rod Ends and Alignment completed 040912, Sway Bar Links replaced 052412, Front/Rear Brakes, Serp Belt, Right Outer Tie Rod, and Alignment completed 100212, Transmission Service/Flush completed 101812, Front Driver's Seat Rebuilt 112912, Trans Assembly, A/C Condenser replaced 042213, Blower Resistor, Air Bag Jewel/Lamp/Breaker, and Instrument Cluster replaced 051313, 4 Tires replaced on 072013, A/C Compressor, Accumulator and A/C Recharge completed 100113, Vehicle Involved In Minor Accident on 030414 (Front Passenger-Side Bumper/Headlight).

The vehicle currently has an oil filter adaptor leak in which the dealer charges approx. $300.00-this repair was NOT made. The vehicle will eventually need brakes replaced-fine for now though. Lastly, we were notified this year of a safety recall on the vehicle for the steering column shaft, which we have not repaired. The paperwork will go to the winning bidder and the repair at the dealership is free.

Takata air bag recall list
Tue, Dec 9 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration confirmed yesterday that 33.8 million vehicles with Takata airbags are going to be recalled. It's the largest recall in automotive history. The already record-breaking rate of automotive recalls this year shows no signs of slowing down, especially since millions of cars with defective airbags made by global supplier Takata are under ongoing scrutiny. The federal government is warning owners that inflator mechanisms in the air bags can rupture, causing metal fragments to fly out when the bags are deployed. The faulty air bags have already been blamed for multiple deaths. How do you know if your vehicle is safe? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration released an updated list of vehicles under recall. Sometimes however, the government's website will crash and the list may not be complete. Check your VIN at the NHTSA website to make sure. The list of cars affected by the recall has not been released, but seem to span multiple models over the years for many of the automakers.
Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner
Sat, 24 Aug 2013For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
J Mays on the 2015 Ford Mustang
Thu, 05 Dec 2013J Mays, head of design at Ford, may be retiring from the company after 16 years, but not before showing the world his swan song: the 2015 Mustang. Ford officially revealed its new coupe and convertible to the public at events around the world on Thursday, including a live unveiling on ABC's Good Morning America, and Mays was in attendance at the automaker's home event in Dearborn, MI, which is where we caught up with him for a few words about his new baby.
"It's a joy" to design the Mustang, Mays told Autoblog, adding that this sixth-generation coupe is his "favorite design so far." Of course, the 2015 model takes cues from all of the generations that came before it, but Mays said it was important to edit down the specific elements from previous models, leaving just enough off to let the customer "participate and fill in the blanks."
"If it doesn't sell itself, you probably aren't a Mustang fan."
