So, up "FOR SALE" is a 1996 Ford Explorer XLT. Every thing is still factory inside except for the sound system! It has an aftermarket stereo, that is usb acceptable, also can install a memory card into it, along with being a cd player too! It also has a 1600 watt class d competition Crunch amp, along with 2 individual bass boxes, 1 box faces the back seats with (2) 12" MTX bass speakers, the other bass box is plexiglass & it faces the back along with (2) 12" Audio Bond bass speakers in it. The way I usually play it, people usually hear me way before they ever see me!! It has sunroof, thats fully functional, power everything, a/c, & heat work great too! Underneath the hood you will find the stock 4.0 V/6 engine, nothing has been changed or customized about the vehicle except for the chassis. This was also a 2 wheel drive Explorer, but as you can see now, its a fully functional 4x4 & yes it does work, tho since I have built it, I have run it in nothing but 2 low or 2 high, & have went anywhere I wanted too, but the 4x4 does work too, just never had to use it! The chassis the Explorer sits upon is an M37 chassis. It has a divorced NP200 transfer case that has the option of 2 high or 2 low or 4 high or 4 low. There is a seal in the case where the parking break was once at that is leaking, however I have all 4 seals to replace the old ones, just havent had the time to tear it down & install them, but the one that is primarily leaking could b fixed without the removal of any drive lines or divorce case, however, due to my physical condition, I am unable to get underneath it right now too! Its not very articulated, meaning it dont have a lot of flex to it, but it rides great, & pulls excellent, & also will stop on a dime! Its had all new brakes & wheel cylinders replaced, new drive lines that have been machined balanced, along with all new u-joints installed & have spare u-joints to go with it also, just in case one may ever go out! It stands upon 49" military tires, & the tires with rims weigh almost 400 pounds each, which I have bought some 24" aluminum rims to fit this, but havent gotten any tires, tho the rims will go along with the purchase too! This Explorer is barely in legal limits of S.C. law to operate on the highway! So yes, with insurance & a tag, you can have a street MONSTER! I have drove it all the way to Monroe, N.C. & back home without any problems at all, however, due to no steering stabilizers, & by the speedometer, you can only drive it at around 40 mph, anything over that, it will get a death wobble, which can b corrected with dual steering stabilizers! I also have clean clear title in hand!! The frame really needs to b sand blasted & painted, & the left side front fender has a boo boo where the tire caught it from turning to deep, but no biggie, easy fix & needs to b trimmed out some what!

Ford Fusion and Fusion Hybrid nab five-star ratings from NHTSA
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Ford's Fusion and Fusion Hybrid have both received the highest five-star overall safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The rating is a big upgrade for the Fusion, which was completely redesigned for 2013. The previous model fell one star short of the top rating, after scoring only three stars in the frontal crash test and four stars in the side crash test and rollover evaluations. The 2013 Fusion received four stars in side crash and rollover testing and a full five stars in the front crash test.
Test results for the 2013 Fusion and Fusion Hybrid were greatly improved at least in part due to Ford's Personal Safety System. The system utilizes smarter sensors to gather crash data and tailor the car's restraint systems to the occupants. Seatbelt usage and seat position are taken into account to ensure airbags deploy with less pressure for smaller drivers, more for larger drivers.
The 2013 Fusion twins also received the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Top Safety Pick+ designation. Read the official press release below.
Ford C-Max sales hold steady despite fuel economy fracas
Mon, 09 Sep 2013Despite the ballyhoo that accompanied Ford's lowering of the C-Max fuel economy figures, the Blue Oval is still seeing strong demand for the five-seat MPV, as Automotive News reports. Speaking to marketing boss Jim Farley, AN says that the controversy surrounding the C-Max's fuel economy figures won't force Ford to change its marketing strategy.
Ford lowered the fuel economy rating of the C-Max after public outcry and legal action by customers that were unable to reach the 47 miles per gallon promised by the window sticker. The new ratings were dropped about a month ago to 45 mpg on the freeway and 40 mpg in the city. Ford offered rebates for current C-Max owners, with $550 going to those that bought their car and $325 to lessees. The issue, says Ford, stemmed from testing standards that allowed the automaker to base the C-Max's fuel economy on the Fusion Hybrid, because they use identical powertrains. The C-Max's less aerodynamic shape wasn't taken into account, though.
Whether Ford's PR team handled the crises perfectly or people just aren't that bothered by a four-mpg drop in combined ratings, demand remains strong for the C-Max among consumers. Ford moved 3,000 units in August, which was a 12-percent jump over July sales. Meanwhile, consumer demand through third-party shopping websites remains strong as well, according to Autometrics, a data analysis company that spoke with Automotive News. While the long-term effects of the adjustments remain unknown, the C-Max appears to have fared well in the near term.
Europe's most-wanted classic car is... the Ford Mustang?
Sat, 28 Sep 2013Over the span of its 49 years and five generations, the Ford Mustang has held a special place in the hearts of automotive enthusiasts in the US, but, as it turns out, this car is also very popular amongst European car lovers. Earlier this summer, AutoScout24 - a new and used car shopping site in Europe - polled around 75,000 European "car lovers" (not sure how they vetted the respondents) to see which cars were the most popular, and the Mustang came out on top over iconic European classics like the BMW M1 and Volkswagen Beetle.
In the whole of Europe, 37 percent of those polled dream of owning a Mustang, but that number jumps in individual countries like Austria (42 percent) and Spain (41 percent). Rounding out the top five popular classics in Europe are the Mini and Citroën 2CV. Find out which cars made up the rest of the top 10 in the press release posted below.
