This is a 2000 Windstar I am not sure which motor it has. Please read this description carefully as I want a happy buyer and a good transaction. This car has been family owned and shows the wear expected of hauling kids around for years. It has been well maintained with regular oil, belt, filters and other items. AC works good and most everything else works. The front windows don't but they did so it might just be a fuse. The paint is ok, the hood is rough but looks ok from a distance. The transmission shifts and works smoothly. The brakes are about a year old as well as the alternator. Recent work performed by a mechanic include a new ignition coil, swapped intake manifold, heater pipe and check up. This car has been a daily driver until 2 weeks ago when it overheated and was towed home. This vehicle will need to be towed and worked on. Do not plan to be able to drive it home. It starts and runs but will overheat if left running. I do not know if there was any engine damage or what it will take to fix it. The oil is clean looking. The kids have grown up and I was planning on getting a smaller car anyway so I don't want to put any more money into this one. As a bonus this also comes with a spare 2001 parts vehicle which was in very good condition until a kid crashed it. There have been parts taken off of it but there are many left. Most of the parts taken off are still available. This give you a lot of options for the rear seats. They are removable and include four captains chairs and two benches so you can mix and match depending on comfort or packing people in. The tires on the parts van were only a few weeks old when it was wrecked. This is a package deal so if you only want the one van there is no discount. Both vans are sold AS IS WHERE IS with the buyer responsible to pick them up. It is available to be inspected and that is encouraged. Please ask questions. $500 deposit cash or pay pal within 48hrs of end of auction and the remainder cash or pay pal and the vans picked up and removed within 7 days of end of auction. All pictures were taken today and show the car as it is. I can supply more pictures if needed.

All the details on Plug In 2014 electric vehicle conference you could ever want
Wed, Aug 6 2014One of the best parts of the Plug In 2014 Conference in San Jose, CA last week was getting to listen in on thoughts about the state of the plug-in vehicle industry from people who have been involved with it for ages. They bristle when you call them the "Old Guard" (learned that one the hard way), but these are the people who have been through a number of ups and downs with plug-in vehicles, so they've got what we call perspective. Their knowledge was on full display in the three plenary sessions, which the Plug In Conference organizers have given us permission to share with you. Each is at least 90 minutes long, so make sure to set some time aside to enjoy the discussions after you download them (any help with making them streamable would be appreciated). Follow us below to see what we've got to offer. Opening Plenary (audio link). "The Road Ahead – Delivering on a Vision for Sustainable Transportation." Moderated by Mark Duvall (director of energy utilization at EPRI, the Electric Power Research Institute, and a long-time EV advocate), this panel featured: Jack Broadbent, Executive Officer / APCO, Bay Area Air Quality Management District Pat Romano, President & Chief Executive Officer, ChargePoint, Inc. Aaron Johnson, Senior Director, Customer Programs, Pacific Gas and Electric Company Brendan Jones, Director, EV Sales Operations & Infrastructure Deployment, Nissan North America, Inc. David W. Cash, Commissioner, MassDEP Dan Sperling, Director, Institute of Transportation Studies, University of California, Davis Highlights: Educating drivers to "get over the gas station" is a key strategy, how Level 2 and DC Fast Charging are really "a new paradigm," that there have been well over 214,000 EVs sold in US as of July 2014 and where Nissan sees huge potential for more EV sales (Northeast US and medium-size cities like St. Louis and Pittsburgh). Wednesday Morning Plenary (audio link). "Getting to the Mass Market – A Discussion of Ideas for Widespread PEV Adoption." Moderated by John Gartner, research director for smart transportation at Navigant Research.
Detroit 3 small cars lay an egg in latest Consumer Reports reliability study
Tue, 28 Oct 2014Consumer Reports has released its Annual Auto Reliability Survey and the results are, in a word, interesting. While we already covered the score-damaging effects of infotainment systems, there's another big angle to the data that's getting some attention - the utterly dismal scores of the Detroit Three's small car offerings.
The turbocharged Dodge Dart and Chevrolet Cruze, as well as the Ford Fiesta were their respective brands' lowest-scoring models, a stat that's made worse by the fact that the American automakers finished 25th, 21st and 23rd, respectively.
That's not acceptable for The Detroit Free Press' auto critic, Mark Phelan, who has penned a scathing critique of the D3's small car reliability scores, arguing that GM, Ford and Chrysler are "out of excuses."
70% of pickups could use aluminum by 2025
Wed, 11 Jun 2014In the next decade, the auto industry will see an explosion in its use of aluminum to cut weight and increase fuel economy, according to a study from market analysts Ducker Worldwide cited by The Detroit News. We are already seeing the lightweight metal show up extensively in luxury models from Europe, but with the impending launch of aluminum-intensive 2015 Ford F-150 (pictured above), North America is using it even more, as well. The report predicts 70 percent of US pickups to have aluminum bodies by 2025.
It won't just be pickups that see the benefit, though. The average amount of aluminum in US vehicles is forecasted by the study to grow from an average of 350 pounds in 2013 to about 550 pounds by 2025. The most common parts to use it will be hoods, doors and - to some extent - roofs, as well.
The massive increase in pickups' aluminum content hardly seems surprising. The F-150 is predicted to use so much that it might cause a short-term shortage, according to one earlier report. At the same time General Motors is heavily rumored to be negotiating with suppliers for the next generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. Ram is the last holdout of the Big Three, but the study predicts that not to last.
