2001 Ford Excursion 4x4 7.3 Turbodiesel W/wvo Conversion on 2040-cars
Ashland, Pennsylvania, United States
|
This is a high mileage Pennsylvania vehicle with all the associated rust you would expect. I would fix the rust (I was quoted $3,000) if I could still get the waste vegetable oil to run it, but I have run into supply problems. If I could drive it on the WVO a repair like that could effectively be paid for in a year. Mechanically it is sound. The 7.3 Powerstroke diesel is a great engine, and it starts and runs great, has enough power to pull the largest trailer with its class 3 hitch. The turbocharger and waste gate was replaced shortly after I bought it in Florida in 2008 and brought it back to PA. I just put new brake calipers, rotors and pads on the rear for June inspection. The alternator was replaced 3 months ago, and the starter last year. The transmission was rebuilt last summer by Vic's Transmissions in Elysburg, PA and has a three year warranty. The first year is 100% parts & labor and ends on 8/16/2014. The second year is 70% parts & labor and ends on 8/16/2015. The third year is 50% parts & labor and ends on 8/16/2016. The air conditioning was recharged a month ago, and blows cold. I replaced the electric fuel pump last week and both the Fleetguard filter and the stock fuel filter are new. New Pennsylvania state inspection expires June 2015. The waste oil conversion was done by Full Circle Fuels in Oberlin, OH and has been trouble free with proper maintenance. This conversion features a custom diesel tank that nestles within the frame rails and preserves ground clearance. The stock tank is used for vegetable oil and has a heated pickup tube, piped to the switching valve and the Fleetguard fuel filter pictured with a heating blanket. In the winter I also use an insulated wrap over the heating blanket for added insurance. There are two fuel filler caps, a spin-on for the diesel and the factory cap for WVO. It's not necessary to run it on WVO, you can simply buy the diesel fuel, and drive it like normal. But what's the fun of that? The 4WD works, tires have good tread, headlights were replaced with high-output halogen bulbs last winter. Like I said, there is rust, mainly the rocker panels. But it's been a good truck and has some good miles in it yet for the right buyer. Please ask any questions that aren't clear, and I will be happy to send additional photos on request. I require a $1,000 deposit at close of auction by PayPal only. The balance is due on pick-up within 10 days and must be cash, money order or cashier's check. There is a notary here in my town that will finalize everything. If you aren't satisfied with the truck at time of pick-up, a full refund of your deposit will be given. Delivery is available, I will drive it to you within a reasonable distance for the cost of the fuel.

Former Ford CEO Alan Mulally lands on Google board
Wed, 16 Jul 2014Former Ford CEO Alan Mulally often referred to the Blue Oval as a technology company when he led the automaker. Now he'll be offering guidance to a different kind of technology firm: Google.
Mulally was appointed to Google's board of directors July 9, and late Tuesday, it was announced that he will serve on the company's audit committee. The veteran executive led Ford from September 2006 until he retired in June, succeeded by Mark Fields.
While Mulally will act as a board member - rather than in a managerial role - his presence adds credibility to Google's recently announced plans to produce an autonomous car. The ambitious program calls for 100 prototypes to begin testing later this summer. Production of the car is rumored to be in collaboration with a Detroit area performance company, Roush.
2015 Ford Edge holds line on pricing, starts at $28,100*
Tue, 04 Nov 2014The Ford Edge gets an updated platform, bolder styling and a standard 2.0-liter turbocharged EcoBoost engine pumping out 245 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque for the 2015 model year. You might expect that all those new features would result in a big price bump, but you'd be wrong. Ford is keeping costs identical to the 2014 model with a starting MSRP of $28,100 (*plus an $895 destination charge), according to Edmunds. Ford spokesperson William Mattiace confirmed the numbers to Autoblog.
That's a pretty good deal, but the real ticket here might be the model's Sport trim. Buyers get a 2.7-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 EcoBoost engine with over 300 horsepower and standard adaptive steering for $28,600 plus destination. That's just $500 more than the base model.
Pricing for the Titanium trim has not yet been announced, but it'll be a short wait to find out. Mattiace tells Autoblog that full pricing and the configuration for the model will launch on November 5. He has also confirmed that the 2015 Edge will begin hitting dealers in the first quarter of 2015.

Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Customers have spoken and automobile satisfaction is down in 2015. I'm Chris McGraw and this is your Autoblog Minute. The American Customer Satisfaction Index or ACSI released its updated numbers and according to the survey, new car buyer satisfaction is down for the third straight year. According to an ACSI press release, customer satisfaction with new automobiles has fallen 3.7 percent, to 79 on its 100-point scale. The ACSI report is based on over 4,100 customer surveys collected in the second quarter of 2015 Sitting at the top of the industry in customer satisfaction is Toyota's Lexus brand with a score of 84. Which was good enough to dethrone Mercedes-Benz, which fell 3% to a score of 83. Of the Big Three, Ford was the only domestic automaker to maintain overall customer satisfaction with its score of 81. General Motors slipped 3% to 79 and Fiat Chrysler had a 5% drop, registering a score of 75 out the possible 100. What's driving this trend of customer dissatisfaction? ASCI points to the rise in recalls and car prices. Where do you land on customer satisfaction spectrum? Sound off in the comments with your thoughts on the current state of car ownership and brand quality. For Autoblog, I'm Chris McGraw.
