Up for Auction is a:
My Freestyle is a 2006 Limited AWD and is loaded with virtually every option available including: DVD, Navigation (2009 Nav Disc), front, side full length air bags, driver and passenger seat airbags. 7 passenger seating, rear heat/air, sliding moonroof and much more. I have a copy of the original window sticker which I can email. THIS IS A NON SMKING CAR.
What I've done to her: I've changed her oil every 4500-5000 miles using Motorcraft 5W20 Synthetic Blend and Motorcraft Filters, Air Filter, Front Lower Left and Right Control Arms, Sway Bar end Links, Tuned up at 120,000 miles with Motorcraft plugs, Front brakes and rotors, rear brakes. I also installed a cabin air filter as discussed in one of the blogs. She has 147,000 miles and if you look into the oil fill port on top of the engine, the timing chain shines. She also has a new radiator and antifreeze change, PS fluid change from mineral to Synthetic Mobil 1 ATF. The transaxle roll resister and the lower front transmission are brand new. The most important service on this vehicle is the CVT Fluid. The CVT has been serviced in accordance with the maintainance log at 60,000 and 120,000 miles. This included draining and replacing the fluid and the high pressure filter as well as the filter in the bottom pan. I have marked the service date and mileage in the engine compartment. As for oil changes, I follow the electronic reminder in the dash and change when the reminder gets to 20% oil life left. The Oil was changed today (09/01/2013).
Knock on wood, she has never had an engine code or the wrench light come on and has passed NY State Inspection every year since I purchased her in 2008.
We just came back from three weeks in Florida and the air blows cold and the temperature control panel works great. She got 26-27mpg on the highway and has averaged the usual 17-18mpg around town. (We live in NYC).
What I have planned for the near future: I maintain her with only Genuine Ford Parts and was purchasing front shocks. I have the Motorcraft Strut Mounts for the front and a Monroe Sensormatic 72260 for the Left Front. Right shock is (Monroe 72259) is on its way. I also have a new serpentine belt to go on. I purchased but never installed two rear sway bar end links but the are included. Also have but haven't installed a new heated seat pads in the drivers seat. If I have good weather, I will install the new shocks or if the car sells, they will be included with the car as well as the uper strut mounts.
What she will need: She will need four tires as well as an alignment after the shocks and tires are installed. The current tires probably have another 10,000 mile left on them.
Her general condition: There is one cart ding hardly noticable on the drivers door. A stone chip in the front windshield has been repaired by Saflite. There is a very slight verticle dent in the rear bumper cover on the right side. There is no rust anywhere on the car. All these items will be included in the additional photos I am going to post. We are expected to have horrible weather over the next two days and once it has passed, I will take them.
She is a strong runner and the AWD works perfectly. There have not been any accidents with this car and she has not been abused whatsoever. She handles the snow really well where others don't. There has been only one other owner and they maintained the vehicle through their Ford Dealer. I have that record available.
I do have the NY Title with a Lien against her which this sale will satisfy. I will forward the title to the new owner via express mail along with a bill of sale. Also, by NY Law, the lienholder must send the Lien Release within 20 days which I will also forward via USPS Express Mail. Having a Lien will not prevent you from registering the car in your name. It only means that the lien will follow to your state title until the release is received and your state will then issue a clear title.
The purchaser is responsible for picking up the car or arranging for shipping. However, I will deliver the car within 50 miles of Staten Island once full payment is received.

Xcar shows how to drive the Ford Model T
Wed, Jan 21 2015A couple of weeks ago Xcar posted a teaser review of the Ford Model T, a look at what the British duo would have been doing if they'd been doing their thing for 100 years. Now we have their complete, 12-minute take on the what might be, as they say, "arguably the most important car of the 20th century." Thankfully, instead of just a review, Xcar spends about half the time giving us a tour of history, from Ford's early days working for the Edison Illuminating Company to his racing days and founding of several car companies that either died or became other car companies after he left, like Cadillac. They also line up the pieces and the sales realities that led to Ford implementing – not creating, mind you – assembly-line production of the Tin Lizzie. And then they get into how crazy it is to drive, like how a driver needs two of the three pedals, the handbrake lever and a steering column stalk to get into high gear. Enjoy the video above on a 100-year-old car that is "unbelievably comfortable," "mildly terrifying" and ready to do just about anything.
Ken Block walks you through his new 'Hoonigan Racing' HQ
Tue, 24 Jun 2014Ken Block seems like one hell of a nice guy. I ran into him at CES this past January, and he dropped the video games he was playing to chat with me for a while. His crew also recently gave our Steve Ewing a tour of the offices you're about to see on this video. Good guy to know.
As it turns out, they're some fairly cool new digs. Dubbed 'Hoonigan Racing Division HQ,' the office is open to Ford Focus ST and Fiesta ST owners who attend the driving program offered out at Miller Motorsports Park. The very same program that Ewing reported on just recently.
Or, if you've no plans to buy an ST or travel to Utah any time soon, you can let Block show you around himself in this MTV Cribs-style video. With interior decorating that relies heavily on shipping containers and luxurious amenities like a ping pong table, 10 refrigerators and a bear(?), there's no lack of eye-candy in the driverly HQ. (Judging by Block's outfit, you'll probably not go thirsty if you're a Monster drinker, either.) Take the tour along with the Gymkhana master, below.
Ford Recalls Nearly 435,000 Vehicles
Mon, Apr 7 2014Ford is recalling nearly 435,000 cars and SUVs to fix rusting frame parts or faulty seats. The biggest of the two recalls covers nearly 386,000 Ford Escapes from the 2001 through 2004 model years. Ford says the subframes can rust, allowing a control arm to separate and hamper steering control. Ford is aware of one crash but no injuries linked to the problem. The SUVs were originally sold or registered in 20 states and Washington, D.C., where salt is used to clear snow and ice from roads. Six Canadian provinces also are included. Dealers will install a reinforcement brace to fix the problem. The Escapes covered by the recall were built from Oct. 22, 1999 through Dec. 19, 2003 at the Kansas City Assembly plant, and from May 1, 2003 through Jan. 23, 2004 at the Ohio Assembly plant, Ford said in a statement issued Monday. They were originally sold or registered in Connecticut, Iowa, Minnesota, Ohio, Wisconsin, Delaware, Maine, Missouri, Pennsylvania, Maryland, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Vermont, Indiana, Michigan, New York, West Virginia and Washington, D.C. Also covered are Escapes sold or registered in Ontario, Quebec, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland & Labrador. The second recall covers 49,000 Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ, Ford Escape and C-MAX vehicles from 2013 and 2014. Dealers will replace seat back frames that weren't welded properly. No crashes or injuries have been reported from the problem, Ford said. Recalls Ford
