Clear title. I recently paid off my loan, finance company(Mid Atlantic Finance) is mailing me title on Tuesday April 1st.

Automatic, V6, 4wd, power windows, AC, CD player, cruise control, Hankook tires with atleast 50% tread remaining. 

In last 6 months I have put in new battery, new fuel pump, new front rotors, new brake pads all the way around, new front sway bars. 

As of today it has 187,969 miles which will change. Most of these are highway miles as I travel weekly for my job. 

Check engine is currently on. This has gone on and off for months. Mechanic told me it was a sensor, do not remember exact one. Does not effect vehicle in anyway.

Four wheel high works great, did great this winter in snow. Four wheel low does not work. Not sure the issue as I never would use it anyway. 

The driver seat recline handle is broken, I have still have not replaced or repaired. 

On the steering wheel it has the cruise control buttons, some of the plastic over the button is broke/missing. Does not effect the function of cruise, it works fine. 

Very few rust spots, they are mainly on the running boards.

This vehicle runs great, I would not be afraid to drive it anywhere. I recently made new vehicle purchase so this one has to go.

Jay Leno is far beyond driven in his 1971 Pantera

Mon, 23 Jun 2014

Perhaps it's fitting that the band Pantera is known for its heavy metal music, because the DeTomaso Pantera is the automotive equivalent of a metal album. It's short, aggressive and makes a mean sound. It doesn't mess around either, with a Ford 351-cubic-inch (5.75-liter) V8 sending mountains of torque to the rear wheels. This week, Jay Leno takes us on a detailed tour of his '71 to show why it rocks.
There's a regular format to Jay Leno's Garage. It starts with Jay and maybe a guest taking a look at the car and talking about its history, and then they take it out on the open road. However, this video is practically a Pantera buyer's guide. Jay is adamant from the start that the last thing anyone should own is a stock example. To remedy this, he and his guest, the editor of the Pantera Club magazine, take viewers to school about some of the ways to turn them into even better performance machines.
No matter what you do to it, though, the Pantera requires that the driver adapt to it, not the other way around. For example, Jay isn't a big guy by most standards, but he has to cram himself into the cockpit with his shoes off and shirt partially unbuttoned just to go for a drive. Still, once out on the road, it all makes sense with that rumbling V8 and those Italian supercar looks. Scroll down to watch and learn a lot more about this uncompromising '70s performance car.

Ford readying Ranger-based Everest SUV?

Fri, 21 Feb 2014

Way back in August, we showed you a Ford concept for the Australian market called the Everest. Now, we can show you that work on the new Ranger-based SUV is well under way.
At this stage, it's still quite clearly a mule (note the misalignment of the front and rear doors), wearing the Ranger's front end and the rump of Ford's overseas Territory crossover. The wheelbase is shorter than a Ranger, according to our spy photographers, which strikes us as somewhat odd for a more passenger-oriented vehicle. Disc brakes should be fitted at all four corners, while the new SUV, which will almost certainly wear the Everest name, should sport a new rear suspension.
In terms of looks, we're expecting the Everest Concept to inform the appearance of the production model. Naturally, there will also be some interior tweaks, particularly around the dashboard, which is covered in these photos.
