2004 Ford Excursion Limited on 2040-cars
Scottsdale, Arizona, United States
More infos regarding my car at: tamisha.curt@isonews2.com . This is a fully loaded 2004 Ford Excursion with the 6.0 L diesel.
-Limited package with all the power options
-Immaculately maintained and serviced (oil changed every 2,500 - 3,000 miles since I bought it new in 2004)
-10,500 lb. towing capacity (great, very stable towing vehicle)
-Propane boost/assist (not an alternate fuel system, this is an assist and kicks-in when the vacuum pulls at a specific level. This is adjustable to your liking.) Controlled by on/off toggle in front of driver.
-Bullet Proof oil system installed 6 months ago. New head bolts were installed at the same time. This was done before any of the issues from the old oil system occurred. The engine is perfect!
-All cylinders inspected during the Bullet Proof install and they are immaculate.
-All 8 injectors have less than 2,000 miles on them. All replaced at same time so engine would not have to be opened numerous times.
-Towing receiver installed in front is terrific for bike racks when towing a boat or other trailer behind.
-Lights on push bar in front are terrific for long drives at night.
-Kenwood audio/visual touch screen deck feeds two amplifiers, which in turn feed six, 6-8 Kenwood speakers (three down each side of the truck), and the subwoofer (3 downward-firing 12" subs). This system sounds better than most of my friends' home stereo system.
-Sirius XM input
-Apple iPhone/iPod input as well, located in center console
-Boss video screen is fed by either the DVD in the Kenwood deck or an Apple iPad connector in the center console
-Four sets of wireless headphones for the video system
-Michelin tires have barely 5,000 miles on them.
-Leather inside is in great condition, except one wear spot on the driver's seat (not the back) and the driver's arm rest. I purchased a set of front seat covers from Cal-Trend (the "I can't believe it's not leather" product) to make it look better and to stop the wearing, and they turned out nicely. I have only used these two pieces of the cover set, the backs and the passenger seat bottom don't need them.
-Straight tracking - take your hands off the wheel on a good surface and she just goes...
-Steering - all bushings and anything else that is rubber or plastic in any part of the steering system, have been replaced in the last year. These items seem to last for one decade in the AZ heat, then they are gone, and these have all been replaced.

Jay Leno is far beyond driven in his 1971 Pantera
Mon, 23 Jun 2014Perhaps it's fitting that the band Pantera is known for its heavy metal music, because the DeTomaso Pantera is the automotive equivalent of a metal album. It's short, aggressive and makes a mean sound. It doesn't mess around either, with a Ford 351-cubic-inch (5.75-liter) V8 sending mountains of torque to the rear wheels. This week, Jay Leno takes us on a detailed tour of his '71 to show why it rocks.
There's a regular format to Jay Leno's Garage. It starts with Jay and maybe a guest taking a look at the car and talking about its history, and then they take it out on the open road. However, this video is practically a Pantera buyer's guide. Jay is adamant from the start that the last thing anyone should own is a stock example. To remedy this, he and his guest, the editor of the Pantera Club magazine, take viewers to school about some of the ways to turn them into even better performance machines.
No matter what you do to it, though, the Pantera requires that the driver adapt to it, not the other way around. For example, Jay isn't a big guy by most standards, but he has to cram himself into the cockpit with his shoes off and shirt partially unbuttoned just to go for a drive. Still, once out on the road, it all makes sense with that rumbling V8 and those Italian supercar looks. Scroll down to watch and learn a lot more about this uncompromising '70s performance car.
2015 Ford Expedition stays the course, adds EcoBoost power
Tue, 18 Feb 2014The era of the body-on-frame, fullsize SUV is rapidly vanishing in favor of smaller, unibody crossovers. However, Ford still sees life in the segment with the reveal of the updated 2015 Expedition, now available (solely) with the company's 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6. The new truck will make its public debut at the 2014 DFW Auto Show in Dallas on February 19.
The loss of the previous 5.4-liter V8 in favor of Ford's 3.5-liter, direct-injected, twin-turbocharged V6 engine might rankle some of the Expedition's fans, but Ford claims that the change gives the SUV better fuel economy, more power and increased low-end torque than before. Unfortunately, official engine specifications won't be released until later this year, but Ford says engine output will be similar to the 365 horsepower and 360 pound-feet of torque that this powerplant produces in other applications. The EcoBoost is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission, and the SUV now uses electrically assisted power steering, for an even greater fuel economy advantage. Ford claims this also allows for better maneuverability at low speeds and better feel at high speeds.
Exterior styling is basically unchanged for 2015. The front end has the same three-bar chrome grille and headlight design, but the lower air dam gets added chrome and LED lamps. The rear gets more brightwork on the hatch, and there's a chrome-tipped exhaust pipe. As before, Ford is offering the Expedition in two wheelbase lengths - 119 inches and 131 inches. A new, optional, continuously controlled damping system alters suspension settings constantly based on 46 parameters and offers comfort, normal and sport modes (just like the Expedition's sister, the recently refreshed and decidedly less-attractive Lincoln Navigator).
Ford hiring 2,200 salaried US workers this year
Fri, 11 Jan 2013With its influx of popular new products made in the US, Ford Motor Company has announced that it intends to hire 2,200 new salaried workers domestically this year. This is the biggest increase of salaried workers for Ford in the last 10 years, and it is all a part of Ford's contract commitment to the United Auto Workers union to bring 12,000 new jobs to the US by 2015.
There were no specifics as to where in the US these job openings will be, but Ford did reiterate that it will be spending $773 million on equipment upgrades and capacity expansion at six plants located in southeast Michigan; as a whole, Ford is investing a total of $6.2 billion to its US assembly plants over the next couple years. According to recently appointed president of the Americas Joe Hinrichs, the new jobs will be focused on areas such as engineering, manufacturing and computer software. Ford will post its job openings online at careers.ford.com, and it will also use social media sites like Facebook and Twitter to recruit new workers, including military veterans.
