   Up for sale is a beautiful 2008 Ford Explorer Limited Adrenalin Sport Trac with a low 53,400 miles on it. This is my second Sport Trac and I loved both of them. I loved my '07 so much I ran up 85K miles on it in 2 years and had to sell it. This baby was to be my retirement ride and I looked long and hard to find the right one. This one was in Florida and was owned by a "CAR GUY". I've found that "CAR GUYS" are nicer to their vehicles than most drivers and I've always looked for cars that have been owned by them (you can usually tell before you even meet the owner). This car was no exception, Royal Purple oil, garage kept, hand washed, waxed often, never driven on gravel roads and a number of nice accessories added.

   I'm a 67 year old "CAR GUY" and I've kept up the same traditions as the first owner except I switched to MOBIL ONE oil. Because it was a Florida car and I leave for Florida in late September or early October each year, this car has never seen snow.
   Nicely equipped when delivered from the factory with 20" wheels now with newer Goodyear  RS-A tires (one original Perelli Scorpion with good tread is included), venting rear window, lockable hard tonneau cover, lockable tailgate, 2" receiver, two sets of Adrenalin floor mats (one set never used) steering wheel controls, auto headlamps, SYNC and all of the other Limited and Adrenalin standard equipment. The original owner added a Kenwood AM/FM/SAT/CD/DVD/NAV W/TOUCH SCREEN AND BACK UP CAMERA which I believe is also VOICE ACTIVATED (but I've never tried to use the voice or many of the other features), headrest DVD players with remote and headphones (I never used them), true DUAL EXHAUST with Rousch stainless steel tips (a little on the loud side but great at cruising speed), Viper ALARM system with REMOTE START, K&M air filter with recharge kit, blacked out fog lights, he had the Ford ovals painted black w/a red Ford in liew if the oem silver on blue. I'm sure I missing some items but you get the idea that the car is well equipped.
   The only change I made was to make the fender vents, which come  as a non functioning plastic grille, into back lit open grilles that come on with the lights(see pictures). I had other ideas but retirement has proven to be busier than i had hoped, although I'm not good at sitting around.
   I'm sorry to have to sell this baby as I still think it's one of the best looking, driving and most comfortable "trucks" out there. My wife and I have seven vehicles between the two of us and that's just not going to continue.
   Come on out and drive it...it will sell itself. Most of the cars I sell go to the first person to see them. I'm not a dealer, just a "CAR GUY".
   Low ballers can scammers can take the day off, if I wanted to give it away I'd give it to a relative or at least someone i knew, not a total sranger. I'm not releasing the car/title until the money is in my account and confirmed. Zero and negative feedback bidders can also take the day off. All shipping charges are by the buyer (I will assist/coordinate with your shipper). Clear title in hand with no leans.

Is that the Ford GT Le Mans racer in the background of this Forza video?

Mon, Jan 26 2015

Shortly after the reveal of the new Ford GT in Detroit a couple of weeks ago, Microsoft announced that it was putting the new American supercar on the cover of the upcoming sixth installment of the Forza Motorsport video game series. Now it has put out a video of the process of digitizing Dearborn's latest. Whether you're into Detroit steel (or carbon fiber and aluminum in this case), exotic supercars or video games, the video is worth a watch in and of itself. But our eyes were focused on something else. In the background of one shot (around the 1:49 mark) you can see a design board with renderings of what looks to be the rumored racing version of the GT – complete with reshaped air intakes, deeper side sills, a bigger rear wing and a central rear fin like you'd find on the latest LMP1 racing prototypes. It wouldn't be the first time we've caught wind of the prospect of the Blue Oval's new supercar going racing. We first heard of the plans last October, further reinforced in December with reports of the new GT coming to Detroit. And as we reported just a couple of weeks ago following the supercar's reveal, a return to Le Mans could be in the cards – which would be fortuitous timing, since next year will mark the 50th anniversary of the original GT40 scoring its landmark 1-2-3 finish in the 24-hour race.

Recharge Wrap-up: Ford's "snowtonomous" Fusion Hybrid, Porsche eyes battery makers

Fri, Mar 11 2016

Bosch and Panasonic are vying to be the battery supplier for Porsche's electric sports car based on the Mission E concept. While Bosch's costs may be higher, its solution would offer simpler logistics. Panasonic is already well established as a battery maker, providing the packs for the Porsche car's rival, Tesla. "We're in the final stage of making a decision," says Porsche CEO Oliver Blume, declining to comment on specific manufacturers. Neither Bosch nor Panasonic provided comment. Read more from Automotive News. Renault will supply a fleet of 150 Renault Zoe EVs for a smart solar charging project in Utrecht, Netherlands. The project involves the installation of 1,000 EV chargers powered by 10,000 photovoltaic panels. The Renault Zoes would be used as part of a carsharing program powered by the solar chargers. Renault and its partners will also implement a vehicle-to-grid system to provide energy during peak demand from the solar chargers and connected EVs. Read more in the press release from Renault. Ford has been testing an autonomous Fusion Hybrid prototype that is capable of driving itself in snowy conditions. Ford uses 3D mapping to scan the drive route. Its LiDAR laser mapping can even detect single falling snowflakes. It collects and processes up to 600 gigabytes of data per hour, comparing its environment to saved maps, a process that helps establish location more precisely than GPS. In addition to the LiDAR systems, the car is also equipped with cameras and radar to help it navigate. Eventually, the car could even be able to clean off its sensors when it detects loss of performance from ice and dirt. Read more in the press release below. FROM AUTONOMY TO SNOWTONOMY: HOW FORD FUSION HYBRID AUTONOMOUS RESEARCH VEHICLE CAN NAVIGATE IN WINTER DEARBORN, Mich., March 10, 2016 – Driving in snow can be a slippery challenge, with the potential for one blizzardy gust to white-out your field of view – a situation faced by the majority of people in the United States. So if self-driving cars are to become a reality – and they almost certainly will – they must be able to navigate snow-covered roads. In its quest to bring self-driving vehicles to millions of people around the world, Ford reveals six facts about its technology that allows for a car to drive itself in snow. 1. Mapping the way: Ford first creates high-resolution 3D maps using LiDAR technology to scan the area its autonomous vehicle will later drive in the snow.

2016 Ford Focus RS may yet be AWD, US sales likely

Fri, 29 Aug 2014

When it comes to forbidden fruit, few vehicles are spoken of in as hushed a tone as the Ford Focus RS. The turbocharged, five-cylinder hot hatch could only be seen from afar by American customers as it tore up the roads of Europe. And while it's safe to say that Ford's Yankee fans are quite happy to now be on equal footing with drivers in the old country thanks to the Focus ST, we doubt there'd be much protestation over a successor to the RS arriving stateside.
Of course, we've seen images of the new RS undergoing testing, but a new story by Road and Track aims to fill in some very large blanks in our knowledge of that car, thanks to a pair of mysterious insiders at the Ford. Chief among those is this - the RS will almost certainly make its way to the US, albeit in limited quantities. It gets better, though.
Under hood, the new RS is unsurprisingly expected to borrow the 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder from the 2015 Ford Mustang and 2015 Lincoln MKC. While that twin-scroll turbo produces 310 horsepower in the Mustang and 285 ponies in the MKC, R&T expects the RS to deliver quite a bit more firepower - 325 to 350 hp, with preference going to the higher output due to the limited-edition nature of the RS. This roughly fits with previous reports.
