2004 Ford Escape Xlt Sport Utility 4-door 3.0l on 2040-cars

Year:2004 Mileage:120477
Location:

2004 ford escape xlt in pretty good condition has minor problems that can be fixed easily. The cruise control button is broken, i have a new button just havent had the time to change it. One of the motor mounts is missing 1 14mm bolt and i just recently noticed a small oil leak from the oil pan i cleaned it off and about after 20 minutes of running i saw a little oil by an oil pan bolt which is right above the exhaust. Another bad is that the car has a rebuilt salvage tittle . It was in an accident about 3 years ago in the front, these are the parts that were replaced...
Front bumper, front lights, radiator support, condenser and radiator and hood. They didnt do too good of a job painting the hood and some of the paint is peeling off....
Aside from all that it has always been good and reliable. The only reason we are selling is because we bought a small 4cylinder car to save on gas.
The ford escape has 120,000 thousand miles, all maintenance has always been done on time and sometimes even sooner, i recently replaced front rotors and pads about a month ago, i replaced sway bar links about 4 months ago, alternator replaced about 7 months ago, new battery bought in august 2013,, might be needing a tune up soon last time it was done was about a year and a half ago. Tires are in really good condition, everything else works with no problems... Heat ac power controls, power windows power locks 6-cd changer, also the transmission fluid was replaced at 90xxx miles so that will need to be changed soon..

Like i said earlier it needs little thing nothing big. I am almost certain it will pass state inspeccion,.
The suv also has a resses tow bar installed, we used it to pull a small bike trailer sometimes.

If you would like to come see the car and test drive it feel free to. Se habla espa?ol. Phone number is 443-988-3133

Ford Focus was best-selling nameplate in 2012

Tue, 09 Apr 2013

Last August, Ford made a few waves by claiming that the Ford Focus was, at that point, the top-selling car in the world. The automaker failed to account for variations of the Toyota Corolla wearing a different name (such as the Auris and Matrix), however. With official data from Polk coming in now, Ford is able to say that the Focus was, in fact, the best-selling nameplate in the world last year.
Using new-car registrations (which doesn't factor in fleet sales), the Polk data shows that a total of more than one million Focus models around the world. Strong sales in the US and China have led to a 16 percent increase in year-over-year Focus sales from 2011 that helped to create even more of a gap between it and the second-best global seller, the Corolla.
Ford also had the Fiesta and F-Series listed in the top 10 for worldwide nameplates, but what's even more impressive is the fact that the F-Series is only sold in North America. Scroll down to see the list (compiled by Ford using Polk data) of the top global sellers last year and a press release from Ford.

Amazon looking to bring Kindle to your next car?

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

Maybe so. The online retailer and digital media monolith recently announced the Amazon Cloud Player, an application for Ford Sync that allows users to stream media from their Amazon Cloud account directly to a Ford vehicle. This foray into automotive technology got the minds at Gigaom.com thinking about what could be next for Amazon. As Kevin Fitchard writes, the logical step is to make audio versions of your Kindle library selections available in your car. As he points out, Amazon has already laid the groundwork for such a move.
Amazon pulled the sheets back on Whispersync for Voice last year. The tech pairs ebooks with an Audible book for a small extra fee, allowing users to either read along with a narrator or switch between audio and text versions on command. Fitchard says it wouldn't be some great leap to apply the same principles to a car, where voice recognition software would allow users to pause or select chapters without ever taking their eyes off of the road.
It all sounds just fine to us, but Amazon hasn't said a thing about such a move. Still, we wouldn't be surprised to see the company come down this road in the near future just the same.

Hurricane Sandy cost automakers 15,000 vehicles, may have ruined up to 200k

Wed, 07 Nov 2012

Hurricane Sandy was the largest Atlantic storm in US history, and its total economic impact is just now coming into view. According to Automotive News, Toyota, Chrysler, Nissan and Honda are set to scrap around 15,000 new vehicles ruined by the storm. Nissan alone accounts for about 40 percent of those, with 6,000 Nissan and Infiniti models deeded "un-saleable" due to damage. The company saw 56 dealerships shuttered due to the storm, but 51 of those have since reopened.
Toyota, meanwhile, had some 4,000 vehicles at its Newark port facility, and of those, 3,000 may be scrapped. An additional 825 were dealer inventory when they were ruined. Honda and Acura dealers are reportedly sending 3,440 vehicles to the salvage yard. By comparison, Chrysler weathered the storm fairly well with 825 units destroyed, while Hyundai suffered only 400 lost units and Kia scrapped around 200.
As you may recall, Fisker also suffered some losses, and Automotive News reports the manufacturer saw 320 Karma models damaged beyond repair. Ford and General Motors have yet to come up with estimates, and no automaker has commented on the full cost of replacing the vehicles.
