Up for sale is a 1998 Ford Expedition XLT 5.4L Triton V8 Motor, with 131,476 miles on it. I bought it in Februrary, planning to repair everything to restore it cosmetically, and tow with it.  Title is clear, and in hand. The truck appears to me,  to have been in an accident, due to the various body damage that it has on it.  Once listed, vehicle information should be available within the listing.

I don't want to put anymore money into it, and am looking to recoup some of the money invested.  After I bought it, I had to have the inner and outer tie rods replaced, tires, and an alignment.  So the Good-Engine and Trans, Tires, inner and Outer tie Rods, Alignment, and Hitch.  Have all paperwork for that recent work which costs me $990 total.
  It has 4 wheel drive, but when I tried it to get out of a parking spot, it didn't seem to help, so I am not sure what the issue is.  Bad- Cosmetically not appealing, and there is a wire that came loose on the passenger side, that appears to plug into something, but didn't keep it from driving.  I am not sure what it is, but I drove it back from Chicago that way last night, and have driven it today as well. If I find out what it is, I will ad it to the listing later.  It has tan leather seats, that need TLC, and no 3rd row seat.  Seatbelts work in the front and the passenger rear side only.  The worst area is probably the passenger rear quarter panel, the front passenger headlight and corner light, and the bumpers.

The passenger front window won't come down.  The driver's side looks pretty good.  There is a hitch on the SUV, but no ball.  The back door opens and window, however it did get stuck on me once and wouldn't open.  The top hinge of the rear window needs fixing.  All items can be found at a junkyard, and replaced. Found headlight 4 piece set on ebay for $50.  Has an aftermarket CD player that works, but not great, and speakers are horrible, except maybe one. The exterior is Black, with some flat black painted areas.  Feel free to ask me questions, and I will respond the best I can , with what I know about the truck. 

Running a 3 day auction, or you can click the Buy it now and buy it immediately.  Upon Auction end, payment of $750 is expected within 24 hours, and the remainder within 3 days.  Depending on the distance, I may be able to drive it to you, for an extra charge, which I would require through Paypal, and can add to the invoice.  If that is of interest, please send me a question through Ebay and let me the city and state you are in.  I am near Champaign, Illinois, two hours south of Chicago, Illinois.

J Mays' legacy

Fri, 15 Nov 2013



Mays is by far not the first designer to use heritage design cues in his work.
The announcement that J Mays will be leaving his chief creative officer role at Ford Motor Company on January 1 ends a 13-year run in one of the industry's top design roles. While best known for having a hand in reborn classics like the Volkswagen New Beetle, Ford Mustang and Thunderbird (above), Mays' legacy is more complicated and nuanced than being considered the father of what is known as "retrofuturism".

Does the new 2015 Ford Mustang have a burnout control system?

Tue, 10 Dec 2013

Whether it's lane departure warning, blind-spot monitoring or automatic emergency braking, most of the electronic systems we see emerging on new vehicles focus on safety. But there are some there just for enthusiasts. We're talking about systems like automatic throttle blipping for perfect downshifts, or launch control to get that textbook acceleration from a standstill. But the latest system could prove just the opposite of the latter.
Although it has given us most of the details, Ford is still keeping certain elements of its new Mustang secret. But emerging reports may have the skinny on one system which Ford is trying is darnedest to keep under its hat for the time being. That, according to unnamed sources cited by Motor Authority, is burnout control.
The system is reportedly designed to help novices execute the perfect smokey burnout - sort of like launch control, but specifically the opposite. The system could, according to elaborative speculation, lock the front brakes while spooling up the engine to optimal revolutions before dumping (or indicating the driver to do dump) the clutch. A cloud of tire smoke and a long pair of skid marks would then ensue.

V6 engines will outpace V8s for the 2015 Ford F-150

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

How 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.
