I'm selling my 2005 Ford Escape XLT Sport. My wife and I bought it new in October of 2004, so it's a 1 owner(non smoker)vehicle and never been in an accident. It's front wheel drive and has the 3.0L V6 engine. Overall it's in great, clean condition but as with other used vehicles, has some nicks, scratches, and dents. Also, I want to be honest so I will say that the check engine light does come on after awhile(catalytic converter/manifold(bank 2/front)) but I have the part to fix it and it will be included. It has two-tone paint that's white on the top and charcoal on the bottom. The interior is tan leather. It has 175,500 mainly highway miles. I'm from NY and this is the car my wife and I used to drive back and forth once a month. She also drove it 80 miles round trip to work daily. It's been a great car and we've put a lot of work into it in the last 6 months/year but needed a bigger SUV so we're selling this one. It has new front brake lines, pads(ceramic)/rotors and calipers on the front. It has a newer alternator and brand new battery, new Y-pipe, newer serpentine belt, both tensioners, new A/C compressor/drier, and the whole system was vacuumed and recharged(September 2013). This model year Escape had a design flaw where they ran the moonroof drain to the rear passenger side wheel-well. Eventually, they completely rust out and the rear spring blows through the rear quarter panel. After driving with the spring literally coming through the inside of the truck, we had the problem fixed and put new rear springs on each side. This model year is also known for rusting under the doors and rear door/quarter panels, but those spots have been treated with POR15 and repainted. It has almost new(11/32) Continental Contitrac tires, full sized spare with matching alloy wheel, a class III hitch with 2" receiver, 6 disc in-dash cd changer and AUX input/FM modulator, wood grain dash trim, leather, power driver seat, power windows/locks, moonroof, tinted rear glass, and aftermarket Viper auto-start. We also have 4 new Timken wheel bearings and front hubs that we never got around to put on but will include. The oil has been changed every 3,000 miles and it's been well maintained. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me. Sold As-Is.  Thanks for looking!

    TX officer allegedly lets 140-mph street racer go with a warning [w/poll]

    Tue, 26 Aug 2014

    Being pulled over by the police is one of the most nerve-racking situations that a driver can go through, and it's even worse when you know that the officer has you dead to rights for speeding well over the posted limit. In this video, the driver of a heavily modified Ford Mustang with a claimed 966 horsepower at the rear wheels could have easily lost his ride for doing triple-digit speeds and street racing, but a friendly Texas police officer appears to send him on his way with a simple warning.
    What's more, the driver in question wasn't just speeding - his Mustang was the camera car for a bunch of rolling street races in the wee hours of the morning on a Texas highway. The driver was more than willing to mix it up in the action, too. Eventually the cops catch on and pick the 'Stang to pull over, but not before the Ford owner runs a claimed 140 mph. With only audio to go on after the car is pulled over, the police officer seems incredibly nonchalant about catching someone who was so brazenly breaking the law. Incredibly, the patrolman actually tells the driver that he's seen everyone racing tonight but ignored them. With traffic picking up, the cop says that it's time to "cut it out" and go home for the night. As far as this video shows, that was the end of it.
    Warning: There is explicit, not-safe-for-work language in the video below.

    Feds Probe Power Steering In 938,000 Ford Midsize Cars

    Mon, Oct 6 2014

    U.S. safety regulators are investigating complaints that the power-assisted steering can suddenly fail on three Ford midsize car models. The probe covers 938,000 Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ cars from the 2010 through 2012 model years, as well as the 2010 and 2011 Mercury Milan. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says it has received 508 complaints alleging that the cars lost power-assisted steering, causing increased steering effort. Four complaints say the problem caused crashes, but no injuries were reported. The agency says in documents posted Monday on its website that in many cases, a warning message appeared as the failure happened. Restarting the car corrected the problem in some cases, but the problem returned in others. The agency says it will check the scope and frequency of a problem. It could seek a recall. Ford says it's cooperating with the probe. Shares of Ford Motor Co. rose 6 cents to $14.65 in morning trading Monday. Its shares are down 14 percent over the past year.

    UK auto magazine says this is the best car commercial of all time [w/videos]

    Thu, 20 Dec 2012

    There have been many great car commercials over the years, but is it possible to define the best? Well, Ad Week recently took a crack at it by rating the top commercials of the year by looking at their view counts on YouTube, but Auto Express took a more democratic approach by putting the decision to a vote. Just after Thanksgiving, Auto Express came up with a list of the 20 popular commercials, and it tasked its readers with choosing the winner for the best car ad of all time. The winner? Honda's 2003 commercial for its then-new European Accord titled "The Cog."
    While the ad never aired in the US, most car people have surely seen the impressive Rube Goldberg-style spot. In fact, the only commercial on this list that we saw on US television was the Volkswagen ad "The Force," but many of the others have become viral videos, including transforming and dancing Citroën C4. Of the 19 other commercials that vied for the title of best ad of all time, only the Ford Puma "Steve McQueen" commercial gave Honda a run for its advertising money.
