This is my wife's Taurus. She has been driving the car since 2001, and it has received regular maintenance. Oil and grease jobs every 3000 miles. Over the years it has received new struts (could use them again) a new oil pump, timing chain, lifter set, alternator, air conditioning compressor, power steering pump, and a transmission turbine inlet seal. The car just received a new battery and oil change. The engine is strong and neither the engine nor the transmission leak. It is very reliable. The radio and A/C both work as they should. Car doesn't overheat. Can be driven any distance home without concern.

Overall the car looks pretty good for it age, but the bumpers have lost their clear coat and the rear one has a small puncture in the cover. The interior shows some signs of age but is very presentable. The car will need struts soon, and the rear ball joints are getting squeaky (I have a set that goes with the car). I think the front half shafts (CV Joints) are getting weak, although they don"t make any noise while driving.

I don't want to oversell this car, after all it has nearly 200,000 miles on it, but it has been well maintained, is presentable and reliable and would make a good winter / work car for someone, or a starter car for a new driver. Feel free to ask questions.

Watch Tanner Foust hustle the Fiesta ST 'round the 'Ring

Mon, 15 Jul 2013

The last time we saw Tanner Foust at the Nürburgring he was sloshing an SVT Raptor from kerb to kerb. Sticking with Ford but swapping keys, this time the drift champion and Top Gear USA host goes to the opposite end of the manufacturer's tuner garage and plucks a Fiesta ST for 'Ring duty.
The 179-horsepower front-wheel-driver acquits itself well by the end of the video. But be warned, Foust doesn't set a 'Ring time and it's shot like a commercial... because that's what it is. Still, you can enjoy all two minutes and 31 seconds of it below.

Ken Block ain't got a care about ruining his wheels

Tue, 22 Jan 2013

During a drifting session at Irwindale Speedway in California, Ken Block made a boo-boo that would send a number of drivers immediately back to the infield. But there's an answer to "What do you do when you bash the wall while drifting and your wheel explodes?" and there's completely different answer when the question begins with the phrase, "When you're Ken Block..."
Instead of us telling you how Block handled the calamity in his Ford Fiesta competition car, you can watch it happen in the video below. You can probably also guess what it is - but it's more fun to watch.

Project Ugly Horse: Part VIII

Fri, 17 May 2013

Now With More EcoBoost
There's an EcoBoost 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder in there somewhere, and it's headed straight for Ugly Horse.
For the second time in my life, I'm staring at an engine in the back of a truck with no concept of how to get it safely into the garage by my lonesome. The first time this happened, I dragged home a $300 International 345 V8 in the back of my Scout Terra only to discover that the bounds of my manliness terminated well before my ability to muscle that 800-pound cast iron block out of the pickup bed.
