This vehicle is very nice and nicer than most you will find on e-bay or Craigslist. Purchased this vehicle January, 2012, drove daily. Transmission was completely rebuilt in March 2013, due to reverse going out. This is a common problem for the model year 2005, so it is now worry free, with less than 20,000 miles on the rebuild. In May, right hand side catalytic converter was replaced. Most recently the steering rack was replaced.
See photos for condition of vehicle. Some minor, VERY minor surface rust near wheels, which could easily be properly sanded and sprayed. Car is reliable and I would drive it anywhere. Air conditioning is blowing warm. Most likely needs a charge. It was blowing cold until very recently. Headliner is in very good shape with only one minor tear near the ceiling interior light.
In the trunk is a BRAND NEW FIRESTONE FIREHAWK PV41 Spare tire, mounted and ready if needed. This is a $205.00 tire if you are to order it from any tire shop. When I picked this car up, there was no spare. I purchased wheel and tire, and had it mounted.
The odometer photo below shows actual mileage. I may drive it a few miles more while it is for sale, locally, since my current vehicle is being repainted. I have owned six Ford Crown victoria Police interceptors since 2003, and this is one of the nicer ones I have had the pleasure of driving. Originally came from a police department in Ohio somewhere, a friend who is a dealer snagged it for me from an auction.

IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013
Wed, 02 Jan 2013The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.
1964 Ford GT40 prototype sells for $7M
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Seven-figure Ferraris are not horribly rare. Heck, an eight-figure Ferrari isn't a rare occurrence. Between modern masterpieces like the Enzo and more classic offerings, cracking the million-dollar mark isn't a particularly tall order for the cars from Maranello. For a Ford, though, it's a big deal.
Now, this is not just some rare Mustang. This is a GT40, the car that Henry Ford II commissioned to whip Enzo Ferrari around a track in France. As far as the Le Mans-winning racers go, they don't get much rarer than this one. Sold at the Mecum Auctions in Houston, this is one of the prototypes, meaning it's one of the very first GT40s ever built. That makes its $7 million winning a bid, a record for on-air coverage of the auction, a pretty darn impressive figure.
You can watch the auction below, but first, take a look back at our original story on this rare Blue Oval.
2013 Ford F-150 Limited
Mon, 28 Jan 2013The Ford F-150 received yet another new model for the 2013 model year, the Limited trim, bringing the ways you can order this country's most popular vehicle to a grand total of 10. There really is an F-150 to suit any need now, and the Limited variant slots in at the very top of the range, above the already pampering Platinum model.
While normally I would admit that I'm the least-appropriate person to test a pickup, the fact that this particular trim places a much higher premium on luxury than anything with a bed and Blue Oval badge before it means that I don't need the workman chops of a skilled tradesman to judge how well this truck meets its true aim.
