Hi there!
The car originally came from an Arkansas national park. Carfax proves this statement in case you doubt it. I noticed it does burn oil at a slow rate. I check the oil weekly and over about a four month period it will lose somewhere around a quarter of a quart. It is dependent on how I park as well when I check it of course. I have changed the oil in it twice and both times I have used Lucas oil treatment. I believe it to be the best for all vehicles. The only problem mechanically is the transmission tends to dive into its high gear early which makes it hiccup until you give it some gas. It happens specifically when I go down a hill and then up a hill immediately after. Research has shown crown vics often do this to save gas by cruising in OD as much as possible. Overall, it is rare situation and I only mention it to be as descriptive as possible. The vehicle drives great.
I changed the brakes just before the cold weather came last year (late in the year). They are still in good condition. I also changed a few parts on the front end simply because I had the money to blow. At that time I examined the springs struts and shocks and did not replace them as I believed they are in very good shape. Perhaps, the biggest bonus of the auction is I am going to throw in two brand new tires for the vehicle. I bought them this year and intended to put them on the front end but did not do it. The back tires are in decent shape but in no where perfect. I believe the front could make it through the summer but I wouldn't brave the winter. I also want to mention the exhaust is a bit loose on the bottom of the vehicle allowing it to create a mild rattling noise. I hope to capture this in the video to show its full extent. It is not horrible by any means.

Check engine light comes on and off pending the tightness of the gas cap. It has been that way prior to me purchasing the car. If you tighten it with two hands it stays off 90% of the time but is hard to un-tighten when refueling. It doesn't effect anything on the vehicle but it does exist. Hoping to buy a new gas cap that seals better before auction ends.

Ford pits Cobra Jet versus GRC Fiesta ST, worlds collide
Thu, 31 Oct 2013Racing takes on many forms in the automotive world. There are sanctioned events that are as varied and diverse as NASCAR, Formula One, Global Rallycross and drag racing, and to be good enough to win competitively in one discipline, you need to have a specialized vehicle. Or do you?
Ford decided to find out what would happen when its Global Rallycross Fiesta ST, driven by Tanner Foust, lined up against its Mustang Cobra Jet drag racer, driven by Roy Hill. In one lane, Tanner has just 2.0 liters of displacement to work with, while Roy has more than double that, at 5.0 liters. Evening the playing field a bit, Tanner has a massive turbocharger and all-wheel drive; Roy has to filter all his supercharged power through the rear wheels only.
So, who wins? We suggest you see for yourself in the press release and video below. And we're holding out hope that Tanner's challenge at the end results in another video from Ford Racing...
Ford F-Series Super Duty prototype reduced to smoldering mess of aluminum and steel [UPDATE]
Mon, 04 Aug 2014The most important bit of information you need to know after looking through our high-res gallery of images depicting a prototype 2016 Ford F-Series Super Duty pickup truck burning to the ground is that nobody was hurt. There were two engineers inside the vehicle when it caught fire, and both exited to safety.
That's the good news. The bad news is that the truck, which appears to have been testing in Death Valley, appears to be a total loss, minus, of course, whatever information Ford can glean from the conflagration - particularly tracing it back to its root cause. Besides that, we're also expecting the body of the next Super Duty to be hewn from aluminum, as is the case with its smaller brother, the brand-new F-150. Note the little aluminum droppings littering the roadway as apparent proof of that.
Our spy photographers report that it took just 21 minutes for the F-Series Super Duty to burn completely to the ground. The fire appears to have started in the driver-side front wheel well, spreading to engulf the entire front end in three minutes. We can't confirm the source of the blaze, but we're curious if the car's black vinyl cladding, meant to obscure the secrets within, contributed to the fire.
2015 Ford Mustang 50th Anniversary Edition says 'happy birthday' in New York
Wed, 16 Apr 2014Fifty years ago this week, Ford debuted the first-ever Mustang at the New York World's Fair. And to celebrate, the Blue Oval is offering up this special, 50th Anniversary Edition 2015 Mustang, which makes its debut at the New York Auto Show. It'll be a seriously limited affair, with only 1,964 examples of the special edition Mustang slated to be produced (the number chosen to coincide with the 'Stang's first year in production). But for those who raise their hands for the 50th Anniversary package, there's a pretty sweet package in store.
The 50th Anniversary Edition is based on the 2015 Mustang GT with the Performance Pack, and is only available in two colors: Kona Blue, or Wimbledon White (pictured). The car also comes fully loaded - the only option for buyers to choose is the transmission. Should you opt for the six-speed automatic, you'll get a limited-slip rear differential with a 3.55:1 final-drive ratio (the 50th Anniversary car is also the only way to get a slushbox-equipped 'Stang with the Performance Pack). Selecting the six-speed manual 'box will net you a Torsen differential with a 3.73:1 ratio. All 50th Anniversary cars will be powered by Ford's 5.0-liter, naturally aspirated V8, estimated to produce more than 420 horsepower and 390 pound-feet of torque in the 2015 Mustang.
Inside, there's a cashmere-stitched, leather-wrapped steering wheel, with a similar detail found on the instrument panel, shift boot, door inserts, seats, and center armrest. Two-tone leather/black upholstery is also part of the 50th Anniversary package, and of course, there's a special logo on the seats.
