Very clean 2001 Excursion. I replaced the engine including HPOP and injectors in April 2012 (156k miles ?) with a Ford Factory Remanufactured 7.3 PSD. The engine is covered under a nationwide 2 year/unlimited mileage warranty. I replaced the 4r100 stock transmission in June 2012 with the upgraded Ford Factory Remanufactured 4r100HD transmission. This unit is also covered under the same 2 year/unlimited mileage warranty. I upgraded the trans cooler to the much larger "6.0" cooler at the same time. During the two years that I have owned this truck I have replaced both batteries, power steering pump, end links, ball joints, front shocks, and tires (Michelin LT m/s). Recently replaced the radio with a media player type that includes bluetooth connectivity.

The interior is near mint. Exterior is in good condition with no major rust issues. Drives quiet and straight. I removed the roof rack so that it will fit in my garage, it will clear a 7' door and it will fit in a carwash that accepts 19' long vehicles!

The vehicle has the following upgrades: Larger 285/75 tires (stock rims), DP Tuner 80hp/150tq "Econ" or stock programs. Large aftermarket turbo intercooler (previous owner-unk make), RiffRaff FRx, Riff Raff 6637 air intake, 4" Magnaflow turbo back exhaust, helper springs (1000lbs ea?), Pyrometer/Boost Gauge.

This is the ultimate family road trip vehicle. It has a 44 gallon tank and an 800 mile range on the highway. I average about 15mpg combined hwy/city.

Toyota again claims Corolla outsold Focus worldwide

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

Toyota isn't convinced the Ford Focus was the best-selling nameplate globally last year. Bloomberg reports that for the second time in seven months, both Toyota and Ford are laying claim to the title. Ford cites R.L. Polk & Co. data that says the automaker moved some 1.02 million Focus models in 2012 compared to just 872,774 Toyota Corolla units. But Toyota says the actual figure is closer to 1.16 million Corolla models.
Last year, Ford said it took the sales crown through the fist half of 2012 based on information from IHS Automotive, but Toyota pointed out those numbers left out models like the Corolla-based Matrix and Auris, as well as the Corolla Fielder and Scion xB-based Corolla Rumion. Whether or not Toyota's belief that all these cars should be counted in the Corolla bucket is accurate or not is seemingly up for debate... as is the question of why it matters so much to both parties.
This time around, Ford is holding the line that the Focus is the "best-selling nameplate," with Erich Merkle, a US sales analyst with Ford saying the company's figure is, "a pure number that is verified by a third party." Toyota, meanwhile, has requested clarification from Polk.

Ford demonstrates Mustang's new Line Lock burnout feature

Tue, 22 Apr 2014

Been saving your pennies for a 2015 Ford Mustang? Put in a few extra shifts or some overtime? Got a great down payment ready? Well, however much you saved for your new pony car, start saving more - you'll need the extra money to spend on tires.
That's because the Mustang will come with a system called Line Lock, which can lock the front brakes electronically, allowing drivers to perform big, dumb, smoky burnouts without moving so much as an inch. It's sort of like launch control, only the average driver might actually use it.
Now, line locks aren't uncommon, particularly in drag racing. Usually, a flip of the switch locks the front brakes. The Mustang, besides offering the system from the factory which is unique in and of itself, looks a bit more involved.

Ford Australia launches Falcon GT F 351, last of its line [w/video]

Sun, 15 Jun 2014

It's always best to go out with a bang rather than a whimper, and Ford Performance Vehicles is doing just that in Australia with the Falcon GT F 351. It's the most powerful road car the Aussie performance brand has ever made with a supercharged 5.0-liter V8 pumping out 471 horsepower (351 kilowatts) and 420 pound-feet of torque. It's joined by the FPV Pursuit Ute with the same powerplant tuned to 422 hp and 402 lb-ft. Sadly, the last F in this Falcon's name stands for Final.
The GT F 351 is a monumental way to go out, though. It harkens back to the old days of Aussie muscle Fords, and the 351kw output is meant to reference the classic Falcon GT and its 351-cubic-inch V8. In addition to the massive power, the F has the improved suspension from the R-Spec model and Brembo brake calipers.
FPV is building just 500 GT F sedans for Australia and 50 more for New Zealand, plus 120 Pursuit Utes. They feature a blacked-out hood and black stripes over the hood and sides, plus gloss black accents around the headlights, door handles and mirrors.
