 Hunting season is over and I am selling my Ford Excursion 4x4. This is the diesel with the good 7.3 liter motor and the automatic transmission. This truck has a fully Rhino lined exterior. It's tough as nails from front to back, top to bottom. You can drive it through a thicket and not scratch it. There is nothing wrong with the vehicle. It starts, runs, shifts and stops as it should. It gets around 20 mpg. It does not leak or use oil. The engine is dry as a bone as is the bottom of the vehicle. It has a four inch exhaust from the turbo back. There is no rust. It is power everything and everything works as it should. It  has a sound system in it too complex for me to fully utilize. In other words a really good one. with GPS, etc. Has a cd player and a i pad music hookup. It has a top of the line alarm system and a auto start that will start the vehicle from 100 yards away or more if you wish. Great for when it's cold or hot outside. The leather seats are in good not perfect shape. The driver seat has a hole in the leather from getting in and out, pretty normal and easily repaired.. It has front and back ice cold a/c and tinted windows. There are three seats in it, the rear one can be easily removed and the back seat laid down. Plenty of room to haul about anything you please or to sleep in if you wish.. I have very heavy duty hard rubber floor mats and back mat to protect the floors. I put nerf bars on it to make it easier to get in and out. The vehicle has real good 8 ply Michelin tires on the aluminum rims and the spare is new. I would not be afraid to get in the Excursion and travel anywhere in the U.S.A. I put on plenty of photos. Buyer must pay in cash or cashiers check within 7 days. $1000. to be paid by paypal within 48 hours of auction close. Buyer is responsible for shipping or you can come get it. If you fly in to drive it home I will meet you at DFW airport. Clear title in hand. This is a good clean Excursion with the 7.3 diesel and no mechanical issues. Any questions, ask.

Ford recalling 433k cars for engines that don't shut off

Thu, Jul 2 2015

Ford Motor Company has announced an enormous recall affecting 433,000 vehicles built between April 2014 and June 2015. There's a problem with the body control module in the affected vehicles that can prevent them from turning off, even if the key is removed from the ignition or stop/start button has been pressed. Individual models include the Focus and C-Max, both built at the Michigan Assembly Plant. The defective Foci were built between June 17, 2014 and June 12, 2015, while the C-Maxes were built between April 22, 2014 and June 12, 2015. Also affected are model year 2015 Escape CUVs, built at the Louisville Assembly Plant in Kentucky, between April 1, 2014 and June 12, 2015. As is usually the case, the overwhelming majority of vehicles – 374,381 – are registered in the United States, while the 52,180 are in Canada and 5,135 are in Mexico. The Blue Oval is not aware of any injuries or accidents due to this defect. Individual consumers, meanwhile, will need to report into dealers to have the body control module's software updated.

F-150 just the start of Ford's aluminum plans

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

Not only have we been told that the 2015 Ford F-150 is tougher, more durable and up to 700 pounds lighter than the current truck, Ford COO Mark Fields said it's also "CAFE-positive." That means, for the first time in the history of corporate average fuel economy standards, the F-150 would be a positive contributor on Ford's CAFE balance sheet instead of being a vehicle it needs to counterbalance with frugal offerings.
Fields' comments made at the Detroit Auto Show were among quotes from other Ford execs that confirmed the carmaker will be using aluminum for more of its vehicles. CEO Alan Mulally said it would "proliferate across our lineup," with speculation being that we'll see it applied to crossover and sport utility models first, since they'll benefit the most. Even gaining the massive scale of using aluminum on the world's best selling vehicle for its first effort - on average, the company sells two times as many F-150s in a single day as Land Rover sells of its aluminum Range Rover in a month - Ford will be looking to further spread the cost of its five-year development investment in aluminum technology. And that should mean better handling and fuel economy for those of us who don't need to wear hardhats at the office.

2015 Ford F-150 shaves 700 pounds, adds 2.7-liter EcoBoost [w/video]

Mon, 13 Jan 2014

The Ford F-150 is one of the best selling vehicles on the planet. Considering that, one can imagine that when it comes time for a redesign, there are hardly any half measures. For its lucky thirteenth generation, Ford has gone all-in on the single most important vehicle in its portfolio, redesigning it from the ground up.
The big news is the F-150's new, lightweight, Atlas-inspired body. Ninety-three percent of that new body is made from a sort of aluminum alloy not unlike what the US military uses in its M2 Bradley fighting vehicles and Humvees, and it accounts for up to 70 percent of the F-150's 700-pound weight reduction. As a side benefit, the aluminum body should prove more resistant to dents and dings. Built Ford tough, indeed.
If you're wondering where the other 30 percent of that 700-pound weight loss went, 8.5 percent (60 pounds) came from the increased use of high-strength steel (up from 23 percent to 77 percent) in its ladder-box frame. Ford claims this steel is comparable to some of the heavy duty pickups used by its competitors, with a PSI rating of 70,000.
