*2003 FORD EXPLORER SPORT XLT PREMIUM*
Selling my 2003 Explorer Sport 4.0 V6. This truck is absolutely beautiful and is in mint condition. I purchased it not too long ago but I am moving to Florida and wont need a 4x4 vehicle, I am looking to possibly buy a motorcycle, but I will cross that bridge when I get to it.
I am the second owner of this vehicle and it currently has about 94,000 miles. I purchased it from a police officer who drove highway to work until he was able to bring his patrol car home with him. He had all of the work professionally done at Rob's Performance shop here in NJ. The audio work was also done professionally.
Rob's Performance installed a custom Eaton M90 Supercharger with the Banshee Supercharger kit. It pushes out about 7.5lbs of boost. All steel braided lines with proper fuel pressure gauges. A larger fuel pump and increased performance 36lb fuel injectors. Next was the 10% reduction pulley for the blower. Also added was a Transmission shift kit and a huge transmission cooler. Over-sized stability sway arms were added in the front and back which makes the handling sharp and tight. The SCT tuner has loaded tune options as well. All of this work was at about 80,000 miles. The tune should have the truck running 0-60 just under 6 seconds. Pretty impressive for an SUV with 4x4. Brakes done recently and upgraded to EBC GreenStuff pads and EBC dimpled and slotted rotors.
-On top of all the performance upgrades, a full audio system was custom built and installed. Two 10" Alpine subwoofers are fitted into a special box in the back with a dedicated 600w amplifier. The installation is very clean and professionally done. All other speakers are Alpines with tweeters installed on the doors in the front, those also have a dedicated 250w amp.
-Most recently added are NEW just mounted 18" TSW Donington Rims with Michelin 265/60 R18 LTX AT/2s. Basically the best tires money can buy for an SUV. The tires and wheels were purchased about a month ago and were recently mounted on the truck. 99.9% tread life. Additionally, I just had new rear leaf springs installed.
Now onto the actual truck itself: Features, Options, Extras. That is what this truck is all about. She is extreamly clean. Non-smoker. I wanted something that was very comfortable, fast, nimble, 4x4, practical, reliable, strong, and fun. Out of the factory this is the highest offered Sport model with awesome options such as full power seat, mirrors, cruise control, tilt wheel, power sunroof, power mirrors, 4x4, heated seats, and two-tone leather seats. Ford did an amazing job creating a vehicle that is practical for virtually every situation. It has payload, towing, 4x4, auto headlights with timer setting. There is also a full size spare tire. Added on top of Fords work are some minor upgrades such as new headlight housings, taillight housings, HIDs for headlights and fogs, an amazing touch screen navigation/cd/dvd/mp3 headunit that talks to the car. Bluetrooth phone connectivity with wireless hands-free calling is integrated into the head unit. Additionally, it shows different functions such as Speed, G-force, RPM, ext..., also added was a backup camera that automatically comes up on the screen when the vehicle is put into Reverse, S&B intake and Gibson Catback exhaust, and some other small details such as rear A/C with separate controls.
This truck is one of a kind and is a blast to drive, it will leave a smile on anyone's face no matter how far the drive. Rain, Snow, Mud... Nothing is a problem for this Truck. No mechanical problems and runs amazingly. Upkept by the preformance shop. A lot of heart went into making her perfect and the awards from the car shows don't lie. This is a one of a kind Ford Explorer Sport.
-Because there has been so much done to this vehicle, I may have missed some features but feel free to messages me with any questions. I always have more photos as well.
Note: the truck in the Carlisle National picture had 22" five spoke rims which are no longer on the vehicle. The new 18" Donington rims will come with it as stated in the description above.
Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer.

Jay Leno's Garage goes eco with Ricardo HyBoost
Mon, 17 Mar 2014"Now before you turn away, this is not another boring hybrid car thing..." Despite the slightly defensive introduction from Jay, the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage is actually pretty fascinating. The Ricardo HyBoost is a 2009 Ford Focus that has had a 1.1-liter engine swapped in for the stock 2.0-liter four. That might not get you performance enthusiasts out there fired up, until, that is, you hear that the 1.1L is also fed by both a turbocharger and an electrically driven supercharger for an instant-on "torque-fill" effect. Sounds about right, considering that Ricardo engineering is part of the genius behind the McLaren P1.
Perhaps most exciting of all, the Ricardo folks say that the package should run somewhere in the neighborhood of $1,100. A sort of performance-hybrid that makes sense for the frugal driver and the enthusiast one, then. There's a lot more to the HyBoost, all of which can be seen in the video below.
Question of the Day: Most degraded car name?
Fri, May 27 2016When Ford came up with a not-so-sporty version of the Pinto and slapped Mustang badges on it in 1974, that was a low point for the Mustang name. When Chrysler applied the venerable Town & Country name on perfectly functional but unglamorous minivans, it saddened many of us. But perhaps the biggest demotion for a once-proud model came when, in 1988, General Motors imported a misery-enhancing Daewoo from Korea and called it the Pontiac LeMans. The original Pontiac LeMans was a great-looking midsize car with fairly advanced (for the time) suspension design and engine options including potent V8s and a screaming overhead-cam straight-six. The Daewoo-based Pontiac LeMans was a cramped, shoddy hooptie that served only to ruin the LeMans name forever, while stealing sales from the Suzuki-based Chevrolet Sprint. Sure, using the once-respected Monterey name on the Mercurized Ford Freestar was bad, but Mercury didn't have long to live at that point. I say the downward spiral of the LeMans name was the most agonizing in automotive history. What do you think? Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Shelby Cobra, Mercedes 300SL and 1947 Woodie from Petersen Museum headed to auction
Mon, 29 Jul 2013The changes happening at the Petersen Museum have been making the rounds in major press, but it probably won't be until August 18, during Pebble Beach, when we get the full story on what's happening; that's where and when museum reps plan on announcing the way forward for the SoCal institution. In the meantime, the museum is still reorganizing its collection, and that means auctioning some of its showpieces at this weekend's Auctions America event in Burbank.
Three of the stars are a 1964 Shelby Cobra 289, one of less than 20 produced with a three-speed C-4 automatic transmission, a 1960 Mercedes-Benz 300SL owned by actor Robert Stack and the last 1948 Ford Sportsman 'Woodie' ever produced. The Cobra, now restored to its original white exterior and red leather interior, was a factory demonstrator that first sold for $5,250. Showing just 38,950 miles on the odometer, its pre-sale estimate is $800,000 to $1 million.
The 300SL is actually a 1957 model but wasn't titled until Robert Stack took possession in 1960. The lead actor in the The Untouchables TV series used to drive by the Sunset Boulevard Mercedes dealership to ogle the car, but couldn't justify spending the money to buy it. When he and the producer of The Untouchables won Emmys for the show, the producer, who happened to be Desi Arnaz, bought the car for Stack. He owned it his whole life, it has been left as Stack drove it and still bears the California license plate "UNTCHBL."
