New York, New York, United States
|
The auction is for one Ford Focus as described above. Also included if you want is a compatible trunk-mounted bike rack. I moved to NYC and now do not need the car. Condition: Less than normal wear and tear! I've driven the car only for one year, commuting locally in Austin, Texas. It has only been driven 20555 miles. I cannot overstate what good condition it's in. I have taken very good care of it. Tires are original and in great shape, the engine runs wonderfully; everything works perfectly. Features: * MP3/CD player/AUX audio input * Power door locks * Manual transmission * 37 MPG highway (my experience) * Does not smell * 2 car adapter power plugs * I'll throw in a trunk mounted bike rack * 4 door, 5 seats 2010-12-31 - I bought the car from a dealership near Austin,Tx Now - I'm selling it as I moved to the city, and I don't need it. The car is completely paid off as of a few months ago. No liens, etc. Food for thought: * I studied the Consumer Reports information on auto reliability. This Focus is near the top of the list of reliable cars, needing little maintenance. * This is a popular car. This means that replacement parts, should anything happen, are plentiful and cheap. Also, as an aside, have a personal relationship with a mechanic. Don't let any shops bend you over. * This car has one owner, and no accidents. This means it is in very good shape. Check out the free history report. The NADA used car guide suggests this is worth $10550. Shipping: Please come pick the car up. I can drive it out to a few far points in the tri-state area, provided there's public transportation back into the city. I'm not familiar with other forms of shipping. Ask me about alternatives before purchasing. Thanks for taking a look! |

Experts wonder if aluminum F-150 gives Ford a real advantage
Mon, 17 Mar 2014There's no doubt that Ford is taking a risk in producing the body of its upcoming new F-150 pickup truck in aluminum. What is up for debate, however, is whether aluminum was a wise risk to take in the first place. Wards Auto took the opportunity to poll some experts on the subject of aluminum versus steel in the automotive sector, with somewhat unsurprising results.
Richard Schultz, a project consultant at Ducker Worldwide, which bills itself as "a leading aluminum industry consultant (though they also deal in steels), suggests that the potential drawbacks to aluminum - higher costs, lower supply - aren't really impediments to the auto industry's increased acceptance of the lightweight metal.
Similarly, Randall Scheps, global automotive marketing director for Alcoa, a massive aluminum producer, counters claims that aluminum is less safe for vehicle occupants, suggesting that the use of aluminum can actually increase safety as it could potentially allow for larger vehicles with more crush space than steel.
Need for Speed movie casts Mustang in hero car role
Mon, 10 Jun 2013Dreamworks Studios, Electronic Arts and Ford Motor Company announced today that the Ford Mustang will play the lead hero car role in the upcoming Need for Speed movie, slated to hit theaters next February. Of course, the Mustang didn't audition for the role like we imagine the film's star, Aaron Paul of Breaking Bad fame, might have. Rather, Ford and Dreamworks struck a partnership deal that meant the Mustang could skip the casting couch. The deal will also see the film's universe populated with other Ford products (gratuitously so, we're guessing), and the automaker will also help the studio promote the video-game-turned-movie next year.
The hero car in question is a special one-off Mustang created by Ford that is making its debut at the E3 video game trade show as we speak. Powered by a supercharged V8 and apparently based on the Shelby GT500, the car's been modified with a widebody kit, 22-inch wheels, larger air intakes and twin hood nostrils. Ford also provided the film's production with an F-450 truck that will be called "The Beast" in the film's story, and a second Mustang to be used during filming as a camera car.
The Mustang's movie career is really taking off, with news of its Need For Speed casting closely following last week's release of the trailer for Getaway, a movie coming out in August that stars Ethan Hawke, Selena Gomez and another Shelby GT500. In addition to Aaron Paul and a modified Mustang, the Need For Speed movie also stars Michael Keaton (cop, we're guessing) and Dominic Cooper (villain, we're guessing), and is directed by Scott Waugh, who directed the Navy SEAL film Act of Valor in 2012.
V6 engines will outpace V8s for the 2015 Ford F-150
Wed, 23 Jul 2014How times have changed. Even five years ago, who would have thought the mighty V8 would be just another engine choice for buyers of the 2015 Ford F-150?
Ford is projecting about 28 percent of the next-generation trucks will have the 5.0-liter V8. That's nothing to sneeze at, but consider this: Ford figures its two EcoBoost truck engines - the new 2.7-liter V6 and the existing 3.5-liter V6 - will also each account for about 28 percent of the F-150's sales (56 percent total). That leaves only 15 percent of the pie for the 3.5-liter (non-EcoBoost) V6. The new F-150 goes on sale late this year.
