**Attention**  This is NOT the hybrid.  Ebay is automatically bringing that in and I can't get rid of it!!  This is the 4 cylinder gasoline engine.  Sorry for any confusion.

This an absolutely LOADED 2011 Ford Escape Limited with only 40,071 miles. Gas prices are always going up it seems and this SUV gets some of the best MPG. If you live in a location that gets snow, have no fear, this FWD gets around perfectly and you can save the MPG from 4WD that you truly will not need. This is a very versatile vehicle, and believe it, or not has a THIRD ROW SEAT. We added the "Little Passenger Seat" shortly after we bought it and details about it are listed below. The third row seat truly makes this vehicle extremely versatile. If you have some small children out of rear facing child seats its perfect to get some additional seating. There are three seatbelts, but honestly we felt its better suited for two, due to space limitations. And this is a seat for children only, adults and teenagers are not going to fit comfortably in this seat. But that's the beauty; if you have the need then you have it. If there is a trip in which you need cargo, but not the seating, then it can easily be removed in minutes with NO TOOLS, and you'll have all the original cargo space. We also added Power Acoustik dual headrest touchscreen DVD players, which the details are listed below. The car has been very well taken care of. It's always in the garage, and has been serviced every 3,000 miles. The only blemishes are a small "door ding" apparently from another car in a parking lot, and a small, shallow scratch in the clear coat on the hood which can only be seen when the light is right. Its due for two new tires, but the rear have some mileage left in them.  We are only selling it because our family has outgrown it. Do your homework, lookup the value, include all these awesome options and you'll realize it's priced to sell. Don't forget the third row seat which I have the receipt showing cost $1,200 itself. Don't forget the DVD players which cost over $500. Read through these options, there is also information on the 3rd row seat and DVD Players which were copied directly from the manufacturers' websites.

White House clears way for NHTSA to mandate vehicle black boxes

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

At present, over 90 percent of all new vehicles sold in the United States today are equipped with event data recorders, more commonly known as black boxes. If the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gets its way, that already high figure will swell to a full 100 percent in short order.
Such automotive black boxes have been in existence since the 1990s, and all current Ford, General Motors, Mazda and Toyota vehicles are so equipped. NHTSA has been attempting to make these data recorders mandatory for automakers, and according to The Detroit News, the White House Office of Management Budget has just finished reviewing the proposal, clearing the way. Now NHTSA is expected to draft new legislation to make the boxes a requirement.
One problem with current black boxes is that there's no set of standards for automakers to follow when creating what bits of data are recorded, and for how long or in what format it is stored. In other words, one automaker's box is probably not compatible with its competitors.

Trucks, SUVs drive U.S. October new vehicle sales

Wed, Nov 1 2017

DETROIT — Major automakers posted mixed U.S. new vehicle sales in October on Wednesday, though America's love affair with high-margin pickup trucks and SUVs remained in full bloom as larger, pricier vehicles fared better than passenger cars. Auto industry publication WardsAuto put the seasonally-adjusted annualized rate (SAAR) for light vehicle sales in October at a robust level of 18 million units. But after a long boom cycle, carmakers are still ill-prepared for the slight decline in sales anticipated for full-year 2017 and have taken too few steps to trim production, said Doug Mehl, a partner in consultancy A.T. Kearney's automotive practice. "When you make a new vehicle, you have volume assumptions tagged to it, and who wants to be the guy who says, 'I'm going to make less of this really cool model'?" Mehl said. "But eventually the market is the reality, and it's going to force companies one way or other here." General Motors GM reported a sales drop of 2.2 percent for the month, with consumer sales down 6.6 percent. But sales of high-margin pickup trucks, sport utility vehicles and crossovers all rose. GM also cut its inventory of unsold vehicles — a source of concern for the market — slightly. The automaker has worked to reduce its volume of excess inventory, including through significant production shutdowns in the third quarter. GM had said its inventory would rise in October. "We are heading into the fourth quarter with good momentum, thanks to a strong U.S. economy and very strong pickup and crossover sales," said Kurt McNeil, GM vice president for U.S. sales operations. GM slightly reduced consumer discounts as a percentage of average transaction prices to 13.5 percent, from 13.7 percent in the third quarter. Industry experts believe consumer discounts above 10 percent of the average transaction price are unhealthy as they erode resale values and are unsustainable in the long term. Consultants J.D. Power and LMC said last week that based on preliminary October sales numbers, discounts have exceeded 10 percent in 15 of the past 16 months. Ford The U.S. auto industry posted record sales of 17.55 million vehicles in 2016. New sales received a strong boost in September as consumers replaced vehicles damaged in southeast Texas by Hurricane Harvey the previous month. Full-year 2017 sales are expected to be slightly lower than 2016.

2015 Ford Mustang GT Line-Lock Burnout

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

In this brief Short Cut, Autoblog's Steven Ewing demonstrates Line-Lock on the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. Accessed through an on-screen performance menu, the feature temporarily locks the front brakes to help you heat up the rear tires for better traction, as you would for drag racing. The result? A 15-second smokescreen.
