1998 Eddie Bauer Ford Expedition
The SUV has 135,250 highway miles as of listing date. (Millage will go up because this vehicle is currently my daily driver.) It has been maintained VERY well by previous owner and myself. The previous owner purchased service manual (included with sale) and kept up to date on all service intervals. I too kept up all maintenance as well. New spark plugs! I did oil changes every 3k miles. Just serviced by my mechanic last week. Brand new abs sensor, u-joint, control arms as per his recommendation. Ready for the winter! It has the 5.4L V8. It is the Eddie Bauer Edition but the originally gold trim has been painted black to match the aftermarket black rims.

The condition of the vehicle has been clearly described to the best of my ability in the "condition description" provided in this auction:

"The expedition starts up, runs, drives, and stops great as it should. Exterior is very clean, original paint still shines and looks great. There are a few scratches throughout and a small dent at the rear passenger side of the vehicle. The interior is very clean with original floor mats in place since new. The driver's seat is torn up a bit but completely useable. There is a small plastic ring missing from the overdrive button on the gear shifter, however it still works fine and only effects cosmetics. "CHECK SUSP" light is only dash light on... One speaker for the radio does not work, it will "buzz" on occasion, I was told it is blown. The tires all have good tread and are all 33" in diameter, however the rear's brand do not match each other and are also different from the front set. All four tires have an equally aggressive tread so they do make a "humming" noise while driving at higher speeds, which is expected. Lastly, the 4x4 electronically engages and disengages as it should." Didn't have room to write but the "CHECK SUSP" (or check suspension light) is on only because this vehicle has been converted from air bag suspension to coil over suspension by the previous owner. Code is showing because the plugs to the airbags have been since disconnected. Suspension works great just as it should with the newer lower maintenance coil over suspension.

I would strongly suggest looking at the vehicle in person before bidding because the vehicle is sold AS IS with NO WARRANTY. I reserve the right to end auction early because the vehicle is also for sale locally. It is a sharp looking SUV, I always keep it clean, and very frequently do I get comments about it from complete strangers. It is not perfect but personally, I have yet to see a cleaner 1998 Expedition. The only reason why I am selling it is because I need a pick up truck for work.

Any questions or picture requests feel free to email call or text.

Thank you

-Phil

Michigan museum offers Model T driving classes

Sun, 29 Dec 2013

Halfway between Detroit and Chicago, there is a car museum that gives visitors a unique level of interaction with antique cars. The Gilmore Car Museum in Hickory Corners, MI has a driver's training class to teach people of any age to learn how to drive a Ford Model T.
From the crank starter to the column-mounted throttle control, this driving school teaches people all there is to know about driving and operating a Model T. Each class lasts about two and a half hours and is only open to 18 students. There are ten sessions planned for 2014 - twice a day on May 3, June 22, July 22, August 23 and September 14. The class costs $95 (or $85 for members), and it also includes a tour of the museum's automobile collection.
In addition to this driving school, the museum has plenty of exhibits on the property, and it's open all but three days per year (Easter, Christmas and New Year's Day) with free admission for school field trips and active military. Be sure to check out the Gilmore Car Museum's website or visit them on Facebook for more info.

NHTSA investigating Ford Fiesta for faulty door latches

Mon, 15 Sep 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a preliminary investigation on the 2011-2013 Ford Fiesta because the regulator has received 61 complaints from drivers, including one claim of an injury, about the doors on the subcompacts failing to latch and sometimes even flying open while driving. NHTSA has estimated that the problem could affect as many as 205,000 vehicles.
NHTSA is still gathering further data about the problem, but looking at the complaints so far, both front and rear doors appear to be potentially involved with the alleged failures. Among the reports, there are 12 claiming that the door opened while driving. Several also indicate the "Door Ajar" warning illuminating during this problem. The one purported injury happened when someone attempted to shut the door, and it bounced back.
Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker told Autoblog via email, "We are cooperating with NHTSA on this investigation, as we always do." Scroll down to read the report from NHTSA.

Porsche 911 tops a list of must-have classics, but No. 2 is more of a surprise

Wed, Aug 9 2023

No surprise here: In Europe, the Porsche 911 is the most sought-after classic car. Surprise here: Slip-streaming the 911 in the most sought-after chart compiled by the Car & Classic marketplace is the Ford Mustang. Using the Google search engine as a means to pick the winners, as well as the average prices achieved on the “Car and ClassicÂ” website, the venerable 911 was tagged 1.45 million times per month according to data stretching back 15 years. The number of 911Â’s sold though the C&C marketplace was 21,141, at an average price of 58,409 pounds, or $74,300. FordÂ’s pony car, still a popular choice for buyers in Europe, placed second on the list with 1.2 million monthly searches. The average sales price over 15 years was 31,107 pounds ($39,570), and the number of older Mustangs sold reached a total of 8,332. Models that also finished among the charted top 10 include the Land Rover Range Rover, the Corvette, the ultra-classic British favorite Jaguar E-Type and the BMW 3 Series. Â“Whilst a 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 RS could set you back the best part of GBP500,000 ($636,000), there are many more affordable models, which bring the average sale price of a 911 on Car & Classic to GBP58,000 ($73,800) Â– the third highest average selling price of any make and model on the site,Â” explained Dale Vinten of Car & Classic. According to the site, the Jaguar fetched the highest average selling price: a whopping 89,000 pounds, or $113,000. But thatÂ’s peanuts compared to a Series 1 Roadster in excellent condition, said Vinten. For that, Â“you can expect to spend up to GBP250,000 ($318,000), A Series 2 or 3 will cost less, as they are not as desirable, but in decent condition you can expect to pay around GBP40,000-GBP50,000. Even a barn find 1969 E-Type Series 2 Roadster can set you back to the tune of GBP33,000 ($42,000)." Launched in 2005, Car & Classic is among EuropeÂ’s most popular classic car clearinghouses. It also runs a stand-alone auction site.
