2006 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer Sport Utility 4-door 4.6l on 2040-cars
Colorado Springs, Colorado, United States
This beauty has been good to us and we have treated it well, but we are moving to England (US Navy) and can't take it with us. Come get it at $11,500, more than $500 under the Blue Book value!
*Zip past anything (0-60 in less than nine seconds) and tow 7,300 pounds with a 292 hp 4.6L 24-valve SOHC V-8 driven by an electronically-controlled six-speed automatic transmission. *Protect your family with front-seat side airbags, dual-stage front airbags, an adaptive steering column to reduce intrusion in a front-end collision, adaptive airbag venting, driver-seat position sensors, and AdvanceTrac with Roll Stability Control. *Fit anything in the back with fold-down second-row seats. I just moved an entire loveseat! *Don't worry about snow and ice next winter, the 4x4 Auto with Ford's Control Trac AWD system will get you there safely. *Show off your leather seats and wood trim. *Smoke-free its entire life. The one flaw in this diamond is the third-row seats. They need the lift arms replaced. Phil Long Ford priced the labor at $208, and you can get both arms for around $450 total online. That's $658 in repairs. Blue Book on this car without the repair issue is $12,625. I'll offer it for $11,500. If you don't need the third row right now, save the money and fix it later - you're getting a great SUV. If you do need the seating, you're still $500 under the private party value for Blue Book and I'll help you order the arms. If you bought it from a dealer, Blue Book says it would cost $2700 more than my price. You won't find a recent model with mileage or a price this low - feel free to check Autotrader. Thank you for considering it. |

2016 Ford Mustang GT bringing back hood turn signals
Sat, May 9 2015The 2016 Ford Mustang is being teased again, this time with a short video. And what you're looking at here is a nod back to Mustangs of the 1960s. Ford is bringing back a hood with turn signals in the vents. In 1967, Ford offered an optional hood on the Mustang with two heat extraction vents that faced the windscreen. Inside those vents were amber turn signals, so, you know, drivers could see their own blinkers blinking. A novelty feature, sure, but a nice historical cue that Ford is bringing back for its updated 2016 'Stang. We also know that Ford will offer a California Special pack on the 2016 Mustang GT. Beyond that, we don't expect too many more changes, seeing as how the Mustang was just completely redesigned for 2015. Stay tuned for the full details on Monday, May 11. Related Video:
2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid recalled over lack of roof padding
Mon, 29 Jul 2013Ford is recalling 33,021 units of its 2013 C-Max Hybrid not equipped with optional panoramic roof panels. During testing, the model in question returned testing results for occupant head injuries that fell outside of criteria laid out in the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. The issue puts occupants at greater risk of injury in the event of a crash if they are in an affected car.
The recall will begin August 19, at which time C-Max Hybrid owners can take their cars to dealers to have energy-absorbent material installed between the headliner and roof. The bulletin below from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has more information.
These horribly misguided front-drive design studies nearly became the Mustang
Fri, 08 Nov 2013As we eagerly await the unveiling of the all-new sixth-generation Mustang, Ford has been giving us some great information over the past few months showing what has gone into shaping its venerable pony car. As many changes as the Mustang has gone through in its 50 years, though, it appears the fourth-gen model played a decisive and pivotal role in the car's future.
As is part of Mustang lore, the front-wheel drive Ford Probe was originally developed as a next-generation Mustang in the Eighties before cooler heads prevailed. The Blue Oval has just released a handful of images showing how bad things could have been - including a full-scale clay model of a front-wheel-drive Mustang (shown above). Fortunately, the FWD Mustang plan was scrapped and Ford went to work designing a rear-wheel-drive replacement for the Fox Body Mustang, with three design studies making it far enough to become full-scale models. These include the soft "Bruce Jenner" Mustang, the over-the-top "Rambo" Mustang and the middle-ground "Arnold Schwarzenegger" Mustang, which finally became the basis for the 1994 'Stang.
By early 1991, the design language of the fourth-generation Mustang had been worked out, and the rest, they say, is history. Scroll down for the fascinating press release telling the story of the fourth-gen Mustang, and be sure to check out the gallery of horribly misguided sketches and various design studies that were all on the table in the late 1980s.
