2005 Diesel Ford Excursion 4x4 on 2040-cars
Farmington, New Mexico, United States
|
This Excursion is like new mechanically and in very good condition cosmetically. I am a perfectionist and when the EGR cooler went out last year. I replaced and upgraded any parts I knew would be a problem in the future. At that time we were going to keep the Excursion for many years to come, but due to financial concerns I have had to put my baby up for sale. I have owned the vehicle since 2009.This was a hard decision to make because it is now such a great vehicle. Below is a list of all of the parts that were replaced during the repair. The engine was taken out of the vehicle and placed on an engine stand to be fully inspected and any parts that were prone to wear or that would be hard to replace in the future due to location were replaced. Engine was not overheated when the EGR cooler went bad. It happened in winter and was noticed due to increased moisture coming out of exhaust pipe. No evidence of heat damage when the engine was disassembled. All parts are FORD parts from the dealer except the upgraded EGR cooler and radiator. All bolts during assembly were torqued to specifications using factory manual.
Head gaskets with ARP head studs(the head gaskets were not blown), but ARP studs are much superior than factory bolts. Bulletproof EGR cooler Thermostat and housing Oil Cooler Oil pump HPOP fitting upgrade all oil pan gaskets including bedplate gasket(bearings inspected(like new) Front and rear main seals with wear sleeves(installed with seal tool from dealer). waterpump front and rear cover gaskets flywheel and dampner bolts torque converter nuts drive shaft bolts crank and camshaft sensors A/C recharged and tested for leaks by dealer upon completion of assembly new all aluminum radiator from bulletproof diesel glow plug wire harnesses Both fuel filters replaced Both transmission filters replaced All fluids replaced with FORD recommended fluids exhaust and intake manifold gaskets new exhaust manifold bolts Heads inspected and tested for cracks and leaks by the machine shop that the FORD dealer uses, original heads put back on vehicle due to excellent condition. Any specific questions please call 505-320-4299, Larry |

2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Your Mileage May Vary
As difficult as it is to write this, I was actually excited about the 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid. With the beautiful looks of the newest midsize fighter from Ford and a fuel economy estimate capable of shaming even the stalwart Camry Hybrid, the battery-augmented four-door seemed like a recipe for unabashed success. But appearances love nothing more than swapping our boundless enthusiasm for cold platters of disappointment. The 2013 Fusion Hybrid gets hobbled right out of the gate with a lofty price tag, and real-world driving keeps the sedan from even approaching those EPA figures.
With so many excellent midsize hybrids on the market, is there any reason to consider the newest Fusion Hybrid? Are sharp aesthetics, a well-executed interior and capable driving dynamics enough to overcome the machine's shortfalls? Not from where I'm standing.
Ford GT, Buick Avenir and Audi Q7 take 2015 EyesOn Design awards
Thu, Jan 15 2015The annual EyesOn Design Awards at the Detroit Auto Show allows some of the greatest designers in the world to weigh in on the best production and concept debuts at the big event each year. For 2015, the large panel of judges included luminaries like Frank Stephenson of McLaren, Ralph Gilles from FCA and Moray Callum of Ford. Apparently the editors at Autoblog had a good eye because the winner of 2015's Best Designed Production Vehicle award went to the Ford GT, which was also our favorite debut from the show. The new supercar beat the Acura NSX and Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class Coupe for the honor. The judges described the Blue Oval's shape as "capturing the original GT40 in a modern interpretation," according to EyesOn Design. The Buick Avenir was also a big winner in the awards this year and received the nods for both Best Designed Concept Vehicle and Innovative Use of Color, Graphics and Materials. In the concept category, it beat out the Chevrolet Bolt and Mercedes-Benz F 015, and in the latter group, the sedan triumphed over Audi Q7, Mercedes F 015 and Volkswagen Cross Coupe GTE. The Q7 received its own accolade for Best Designed Interior, and it beat the Avenir and Infiniti Q60 for the honor. This year's Lifetime Design Achievement Award went to former Renault designer Patrick le Quement, and Bob Lutz received the EyesOn Design Catalyst Award for the second time. The honor is for an executive "who has empowered great design," according to the organization, which describes Lutz perfectly. Scroll down to read the announcement with more comments about the winners.

Ford partnering with MIT, Stanford on autonomous vehicle research
Fri, 24 Jan 2014Ask any car engineer what's the biggest variable in achieving fuel economy targets, and he'll tell you "the driver." If one human can't understand human driving behavior enough to be certain about an innocuous number like miles per gallon, how is an autonomous car supposed to figure out what hundreds of other drivers are going to do in the course of a day? Ford has enlisted the help of Stanford and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to find out.
Starting with the automated Fusion Hybrid introduced in December, MIT will be developing algorithms that driverless cars can use to "predict actions of other vehicles and pedestrians" and objects within the three-dimensional map provided by its four LIDAR sensors.
The Stanford team will research how to extend the 'vision' of that LIDAR array beyond obstructions while driving, analogous to the way a driver uses the entire width of a lane to see what's ahead of a larger vehicle in front. Ford says it wants to "provide the vehicle with common sense" as part of its Blueprint for Mobility, preparing for an autonomous world from 2025 and beyond.
