Clean 2 owner title 2000 Ford Explorer Sport, 234,000+ miles which needs (I'm told) a new clutch and transmission. Listed as "mechanics special" as the rest of the truck from a running perspective is mechanically sound. Engine, belts, diffs, suspension, exhaust, brakes (except emergency, more on that below) all are in working order with no leaks/drips. Tires should be replaced this year and body has normal wear and tear for being used both on and off road and has rust on the rear bumper and body on drivers side door entry which is typical for this model. Interior is fair for its age but carpets and passenger seat could use some cleaning but no rips, tears or holes.

Things that could be fixed but are not necessary to make it run:

- Emergency brake. I actually had this fixed but for whatever reason it won't engage the rear brakes. Pedal is tight so it may just need some tweaking

- Turn signal module. Turn signals both work but it gets stuck every couple of months.

- Drivers side door lock. It works (in theory), key fob doesn't unlock drivers door, just everything else... the rivet that holds the internal box inside the door came loose so you have to unlock from inside of truck by pulling the door handle. It's an easy fix, I just never got around to do it.

- Radio antenna. Douchebag in Mt Adams broke it off. I don't listen to the radio so I never fixed it. Again, another easy peasy one.

- Rear Lund wind deflector. You could remove it, but you would have to patch the holes you would have in the hatch door. It broke years ago and I ghetto rigged it back together using inner-city ingenuity, glue and gorilla tape. It has sentimental value to me, doubt it would for you however.

- Rear wiper, needs a new one although I'm not really sure why Ford even has one because I could never, ever get it to work right.

There are a few other things such as rock chips in front glass (but no cracks), missing mudflap etc that have nothing whatsoever to do mechanically. Just things from wear and tear.

I've taken plenty of pictures so judge for yourself. The truck still runs but needs transmission attention... $600.00 cash/cashiers check or PayPal only.

Reflecting on the Ford GT on its 10-year anniversary

Thu, 10 Apr 2014

Ten years ago, during the bright-eyed enthusiasm of the early 2000s and before the collective automotive industry did its best Titanic impression, we had the Ford GT. An everyman's supercar like there'd never been (remember, this was before 638-horsepower Corvettes were a thing), the GT arrived with a supercharged, 5.4-liter V8 that produced 550 horsepower and graced this retro-styled rocket with an easy, sub-four-second sprint to 60 miles per hour.
Equal to the GT's performance were its looks. Inspired by the GT40 racers that dominated Le Mans and bested Ferrari in the 1960s, the sleek, low, almost-reptilian look of the GT was the absolute pinnacle of the retro styling that so defined the early 2000s.
Crank and Piston put together a video celebrating the ten-year-old GT, arguing that Ford is a bit too busy with the next-gen Mustang, which turns 50 next week, to do it themselves. In the short clip, there is gratuitous engine noise and supercharger whine, not to mention scenes of the white-on-red GT prowling the deserts and streets of Dubai. It's a bit short, but very nicely shot. Scroll down, have a look and be sure to turn up those speakers before getting started.

FL man fatally shot after urging driver not to do donuts in a Mustang

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

Bradley Holt (pictured), the older half-brother of University of South Florida freshman quarterback Quinton Flowers, was killed in a random act of violence last week.
The 24-year-old Holt was throwing a football around with local kids in Allapattah, a neighborhood in Miami, when a yellow Mustang showed up and started doing donuts in the street. Holt, worried about kids playing in front his apartment complex, walked over to the driver and asked him why he was "driving so crazy with so many kids out here?"
The driver left. Holt's sister said the driver came back "about 15 to 20 minutes later" and fired two shots at Holt. One of them hit Holt in the back of the head, killing him.

50 new vehicles by 2025: Ford making big push in China

Tue, Dec 5 2017

SHANGHAI — Ford will launch 50 new vehicles in China by 2025, including 15 electrified vehicles, the U.S. firm said at an event in Shanghai on Tuesday, as it looks to rev up sales growth in the market and shift towards cleaner electric cars. Ford's sales in China have been weak in recent months, and the company is scrambling to come up with electric and hybrid vehicles to comply with strict Chinese quotas over production and sales for so-called new energy vehicles, or NEVs. The U.S. automaker is undergoing a broad review of its China operations, part of a strategic re-think under new Chief Executive Officer Jim Hackett, which will likely see the company focus on electric commercial vans as well as electric cars. "Between now and 2025, we will launch 50 new vehicles in China, and of those 50 new vehicles, 15 of them will be all-new electrified vehicles," said Peter Fleet, Ford's head of Asia Pacific, pointing to big growth in the "utility" segment. Fleet also said Ford's China revenue would grow by 50 percent over the same period. China is pushing automakers toward electric and hybrid petrol-electric vehicles, setting tough quotas for NEVs that come into play in 2019, and has signaled a longer-term shift away from traditional internal combustion engine cars. The major shift in the world's largest auto market has jolted some automakers, sparking a spate of recent electric vehicle (EV) joint ventures in the market. Ford has announced an EV tie-up with China's Anhui Zotye Automobile Co Ltd. "We've never seen change like we do today," said Ford Executive Chairman Bill Ford. "Everything is being disrupted" by the development of autonomous vehicles, trends such as ride-sharing and electric vehicles, he added. "It's clearly the case that China will lead the world in EV development, and so we at Ford are investing enormous amounts of money both here in China and globally to bring electrification into fruition."
