*** 2001 Ford SVT Lightning 12,033 Original Miles *** Read First: I know this truck will have a lot of interest. I may choose not to answer some emails or questions as I'm only looking for a buyer that has the funds capable of purchasing this nearly flawless example. Please let me know of your intent or how serious you are. This is not an "eBay special" nor will it sell for "cheap", although it's less than a new 4-cylinder Toyota Camry I saw at the Toyota Dealer. :-) If you're hoping to get a lot off my asking price, you won't. i'm very easy to work with, though, and will help out with anything you need such as storing it for a longer period of time or working with your shipper. What: I have owned, played with, and collected unique and fun autos my entire life. This is my 4th SVT Lightning and by far the nicest example I've ever seen. I purchased my first Lightning back in 2003 and have loved them ever since! I owned one stock, one lightly modified, and one heavily modified that produced 730 horse power. This example is completely stock and always has been. Completely 100% original as it came off the showroom floor in 2001! Currently at only 12,033 original miles. You may not ever find one like this again. Rare chance at a nearly new SVT Lightning. This should be an amazing future investment (Barrett Jackson?). My struggle is not driving it, not modifying it, and keeping the miles off. It has never been raced or at a track. It should, however, attend a few "car shows". This truck has never been driven in the rain or the snow. This is a third "car" for us in addition to our other toys (PWC, Boat, Jeep...). We do not need to sell this and I've closed this auction template a few times after deciding not to part with it. Our plan was to keep it for years and keep the miles low as I know I cannot replace this. It will only appreciate in value. I'm not listing this for sale locally as I'd like to avoid tire kickers, and do not plan re-list this again if it doesn't sell during the auction. Includes: Original "Ford Special Vehicle Team" Certificate. Build #3407. Original Window Sticker Original Books/Manuals Both original keys and key fobs Original Ford Tonneau Cover (factory option on the Window Sticker) Original Ford Rubber Bed-Mat Unused Garage Door Opener/Velcro (shown in picture) Original Ford Stereo Tape Player with 6-Disc CD Changer (behind seat) Condition - Exterior: Excellent. As new. No dents, no scratches anywhere on the paint. Original paint, original panels, original VIN tags. The tires have no dry rot or issues. Tread depth looks like you'd expect with only 12,033 miles. I would guess all for around 30% worn with 70% tread left. I've taken a photo of a minor scratch on the top of the tailgate plastic. And one photo of a slight scratch on one rim. That's all I can find anywhere on the exterior. Otherwise picture a brand new Lightning. Even the underside of the truck looks new. Condition - Interior: Excellent. As new. Zero issues. Non smoker, no pets, no food, no smells, no wear on the suede/leather seats. Engine: Excellent condition. As new and as you'd expect with only 12,033 original miles. Shipping: We're in Charlotte North Carolina. I will help you and your Shipper if you're out of state. Or feel free to fly in to Charlotte and drive it home. Payment: A non refundable Paypal deposit of $500 is due IMMEDIATELY after you win the auction. No exceptions. Feedback: Note our near perfect, positive feedback for ~11 YEARS on eBay! |

Ford abandons MyFord Touch, all hail Sync 3 infotainment [w/video]
Thu, Dec 11 2014MyFord Touch has been among the most widely disdained automotive infotainment systems on the market, practically since its introduction in 2010. Consumer Reports was among the most vocal critics, all but advocating its lynching by an angry mob armed with torches and pitchforks. Not surprisingly, then, after such a critical walloping, Ford has finally decided to say goodbye to the unloved tech, declaring the end of MyFord Touch branding in favor of Sync 3 for its upcoming, all-new system. Ford is promising everything you would expect from Sync 3, including faster response time, better voice-command integration, easier controls and a more useable interface. The screen layout includes fewer items to make them easier to discern, and the icons are made from large, high-contrast buttons. There's also a dedicated tab for apps at the bottom of the screen in addition to those for audio, climate, phone and navigation. Another useful feature is the fact that Sync 3 can download improvements over your home Wi-Fi for easier updates. In addition to the revamped interface, the software running behind the scenes is a big change too. Rather than MyFord Touch's Microsoft-sourced system, Sync 3 uses the Blackberry-owned QNX, according to Automotive News. Such a switch was rumored earlier this year. Drivers still have to live with MyFord Touch a little longer, though. According to Automotive News, Ford said that the change to Sync 3 will happen during the 2016 model year with complete integration into the lineup by the end of the 2016 calendar year. It will come standard on Titanium trim models and as a separate option will be priced in line with the current MyFord Touch. The Sync 3 brand will carry over to Lincoln, too, but with a different look. The gallery above shows a few more looks at the interface, and we invite you to scroll down to watch a video of Sync 3 in action and to read Ford's press release about it, below.

2013 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year finalists announced [w/poll]
Wed, 12 Dec 20122012 is almost in the books and automakers are spending December gearing up for the 2013 auto show season, which tips off next month at the Detroit Auto Show. Traditionally, the latter opens up with the announcement of the North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards, and this year figures to be no different.
But up until this moment, we didn't know which six vehicles would be parked ahead of the stage as finalists, with executives and engineers waiting for the winners to be disclosed. Whittled down from October's "short list" of nominees (11 cars and 10 truck/utility vehicles), the finalists are as follows:
2013 North American Car of the Year:
Detroit's new fleet of donated police cars have safety issues [w/video]
Wed, 23 Oct 2013In a show of generosity in mid-August, Detroit's business leaders donated $8 million to the Police Department and Fire Department in order to buy 100 new police vehicles and 23 EMS ambulances. But now officers have discovered - and complained - that the police vehicles have glaring safety issues, Deadline Detroit reports. It is not made clear what models of the fleet vehicles - which include police versions of the Ford Taurus, the Chevrolet Caprice and the Dodge Charger - are affected by the safety issues.
Officers reportedly have complained that the Plexiglass partition separating front-seat officers and back-seat prisoners is easily breached, and that the front passenger seat is installed too close to the dashboard. Prisoners who manage to writhe out of their handcuffs can bend the Plexiglass and reach into the cockpit, and sitting too close to the dashboard can render airbags more dangerous and make officers more vulnerable to injury in a crash.
Mark Diaz, president of the Detroit Police Officers Association, received the complaints and reportedly said the vehicles would get safety updates addressing the issues. But Deadline Detroit reports that it checked some of the offending police cars and, as of the last few days, they hadn't been updated.
