For sale is our 2003 Expedition XLT 4X4.  We purchased this vehicle 5 years ago from our neighbor who used it to commute about 70 miles round trip daily for work.  She took great care of it. That's why it has high mileage.  The reason we are selling it is because our kids are off to college and we downsized to an  Escape.  This vehicle is in very good condition and has always been maintained and garaged.  The transmission has been flushed and maintained regularly and it shifts and runs out flawlessly.  All the coil on plug ignition coils have been replaced since we purchased the vehicle and it runs great and used no oil.  It has no leaks.  We had a 3"/2" Ready Lift leveling kit professionally installed.  This style lift has no negative affect on the ride or tire geometry.  It only levels it and lifts it a couple inches.  It looks much better and gives it a more aggressive stance.  We also installed Ford OEM 20" wheels and new 305/60R20 Goodyear Wrangler tires.  You may also notice that we removed the OEM running boards.  We still have them and they're in great shape.  We just liked the look better without them.  I have one picture on here with them still installed so you can see what they looked like.  They go with the vehicle or we can put them back on for you if you like.  Everything works on this vehicle.  It rides and drives like new. The A/C is cold and the forward and rear A/C controls all work.  This is the first year of the fold away rear seats and they are much nicer than those on the 97-2002 Expedition.  Plus the extra legroom in the third row make its very comfortable for adults.  My boys are 6'3" and 6'5" and they fit back there fine.  It's also a split rear seat so cargo/people carrying is very flexible.  We had the 10" DVD system professionally installed and there are 3 sets of wireless headphones.  We installed a performance muffler because I like a little exhaust rumble.  It sound great outside but has no annoying drone inside.  It has a brake controller because our neighbor occasionally pulled a pop up camper.  It has the factory tow package and 3.73 gear ratio.  It has the keyless entry key pad which is very convenient.  We have all the original manuals and key fobs and we have all weather Husky floor liners for the first two rows of seats. 

The only issues it has are cosmetic.  The very front of the hood has a small dent in it from hitting a turkey buzzard on the highway.  Instead of getting it fixed and trying to match the paint, I installed the bug deflector to conceal it.  I have a pic showing this.  The other thing is the rear hatch.  You can see from the picture of the back of the vehicle some paint bubbling.  This is NOT rust because the back hatch on these is aluminum so it can't rust.  It was a paint defect from the factory that many of these vehicles have.  It's been that way since we've had it and, again, I chose not to do anything with it because it would be hard to match the paint and it's not hurting anything as is.

Don't let the mileage worry you.  Our last Expy was a 1997 and it had 220,000 miles on it when we sold it.  It's still on the road with the man we sold it to years ago with the same engine and transmission.  This was our family vehicle up until we got the Escape.  It's road ready and can be taken anywhere any time without worry.  I'm a fanatic when it comes to taking care of my stuff.  In fact, I drive my family crazy because I'm so picky with my vehicles.  It's not a new vehicle but it's very nice inside and out for its age.  Contact me if you have any other questions.

Consumer Reports no longer recommends Honda Civic

Mon, Oct 24 2016

Consumer Reports annual Car Reliability Survey is out, and yes, there are some big surprises. First and foremost? The venerable publication no longer recommends the Honda Civic. In fact, aside from the walking-dead CR-Z and limited-release Clarity fuel-cell car, the Civic is the only Honda to miss out on CR's prestigious nod. At the opposite end there's a surprise as well – Toyota and Lexus remain the most reliable brands on the market, but Buick cracked the top three. That's up from seventh last year, and the first time for an American brand to stand on the Consumer Reports podium. Mazda's entire lineup earned Recommended checks as well. Consumer Reports dinged the Civic for its "infuriating" touch-screen radio, lack of driver lumbar adjustability, the limited selection of cars on dealer lots fitted with Honda's popular Sensing system, and the company's decision to offer LaneWatch instead of a full-tilt blind-spot monitoring system. Its score? A lowly 58. The Civic isn't the only surprise drop from CR's Recommended ranks. The Audi A3, Ford F-150, Subaru WRX/STI, and Volkswagen Jetta, GTI, and Passat all lost the Consumer Reports' checkmark. On the flipside, a number of popular vehicles graduated to the Recommended ranks, including the BMW X5, Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, and Cruze, Hyundai Santa Fe, Porsche Macan, and Tesla Model S. Perhaps the biggest surprise is the hilariously recall-prone Ford Escape getting a Recommended check – considering the popularity of Ford's small crossover, this is likely a coup for the brand, as it puts the Escape on a level playing field with the Recommended Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, and Nissan Rogue. While Ford is probably happy to see CR promote the Escape, the list wasn't as kind for every brand. For example, of the entire Fiat Chrysler Automobiles catalog, the ancient Chrysler 300 was the only car to score a check – there wasn't a single Dodge, Fiat, Jeep, Maserati, or Ram on the list. That hurts. FCA isn't alone at the low end, either. GMC, Jaguar Land Rover, Mini, and Mitsubishi don't have a vehicle on CR's list between them, while brands like Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, Nissan, Lincoln, Infiniti, and Cadillac only have a few models each.

Nelson Piquet and Nigel Mansell revisit bitter F1 rivalry in... Ford Fusion campaign?

Wed, 23 Jan 2013

Formula One World Champions Nelson Piquet and Nigel Mansell haven't been on good terms since the 1986 season, when Piquet joined Mansell at the Williams team and Piquet spent the year privately fuming about not being granted the status of number one driver. Things only got worse from there - even though Piquet won the title the following year with Williams, still partnered with Mansell, the fuming was a lot less private.
They're back together after a 25-year silence, in the city of Porto Alegre, Brazil to drive the new Ford Fusion. Called "Fusion Grand Prix," both men get the new Ford sedan, prepped to their liking - but still street legal, we assume - for a race to decide... well, who is faster behind the wheel of a Fusion.
There will be four episodes, with the first two having already aired. The third episode comes on January 29 and the race happens February 5. You'll find two video episodes and a press release below, but note - because it's a campaign for Ford Brazil, Piquet's dialogue in the vids isn't translated, so hit the Closed Captioning button to hear his side of the smack talking.

2015 Ford F-150 to get 2.7-liter EcoBoost?

Mon, 30 Dec 2013

As we prepare for the arrival of the all-new, next-generation Ford F-150, rumors about the new truck are picking up steam. Naturally, many of said rumors aren't just related to the way the truck will look (it's expected to take design cues from the Atlas concept shown above), they're tied to what's going to motivate the Blue Oval mainstay, with Ford's EcoBoost range likely to play an increasingly key role. While we're still expecting the current 3.5-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 to retain its position as a premium alternative to Ford's naturally aspirated V6 and V8, a Canadian automotive news site is proposing that the Dearborn automaker is also preparing a new, more fuel-efficient downsized EcoBoost option.
Autos.ca is reporting that a new, 2.7-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 could find its way into the lighter, aluminum-intensive truck. The new engine supposedly makes use of asymmetrical turbos to generate 320 horsepower and 370 pound-feet of torque - substantially more impressive numbers than the current 3.7-liter base engine's 302 ponies and 278 lb-ft - while offering improved fuel economy and emissions. The new 2.7 EcoBoost (internally dubbed "Nano") isn't expected to supplant the naturally aspirated V6 as the F-150's base engine, it's expected to slot in above directly it.
Naturally, we're prescribing more than a few grains of salt to go with these rumors, at least until Ford debuts the next F-150 at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show, a reveal we'll be covering in a mere two weeks.
