PLEASE READ....This exact listing was originally listed on ebay nearly one week ago. It was viewed by more then 1000 persons and being watched by nearly 75 ebay accounts. After two persons recently sent messages to me stating that the discription was not in English I contacted ebay @9 a.m. on the morning of 4/10 to inquire what was happening with my listing (item #121090207684). Ebay acknowledged that my listing / account had been Hacked and that the bulk of the discription was converted to a foreign language. All I can say is that the internet is a Very Cruel Place and that Fact Is Stranger Than Fiction. Ebay immediatly terminated the listing at 6:08 (PST) and sent an email explaining such to all persons who had bid on the car. A copy of the ebays correspondences confirming this unauthorized atltering is shown at the very bottom of this discription. I requested that Ebay send a similar email to all accounts who were "watching the ad" but they refused to do so. If you want to see the hacked verbiage compared to the below listing (original prior to Hacking) go to ; Preferences...Search Option...And click on the "Completed Listings tab". Quite frankly there is no one more disappointed than I am! With that being said the following is the ad as originally generated ;
This car was purchased new by my wife and I from Chapman Ford in Lancaster Pennsylvania in early November of 2005. Soon thereafter the car was shipped to our home on Long Island. As you can imagine the car driven and thoroughly enjoyed. The car was always maintained through Sayville Ford in Sayville, New York (Long Island). All of our service records will come with the vehicle. As detailed below and as shown in the ads photos we have every document, brochure, letter, tag, sticker, invoice, build-sheet, bar-code, parer work, etc.etc.etc. related to this car. We are selling the car due to us having two children entering college with another in her third year of college. Although this was to be "Our Forever Car" life is full of disappointments and the unexpected! (I.e. Hackers) Always having placed family as the paramount priority in life leads us to this juncture wherein we are letting go of our beloved Ford GT #593.
The car was involved in a accident in June of 2009.While driving at 40 mph I successfully avoided a very deep pothole but unfortunately lost control of the car despite my best efforts. The car spun 180 degrees and then hit a 3" high curb with a bias edge. The car continued over the curb an slid across a flat 16' wide grass median before stopping on the opposite side of the road. The car never hit another car nor any other object other then the curb. Having little to no confidence in local companies and/or dealers to re-mediate the car, I did extensive research and ultimately contacted The GT Guy in South Rockwood Michigan. After speaking with them I knew that they were/are the frontrunners in Ford GT know how, technology, experience, ability and a reputation that is second to none. I then put the GT in my enclosed trailer and personally delivered it to The GT Guy. The work was preformed to the highest standard and there is absolutely NO sign of the previous incident.The mileage on the car at this time was 10,406.
The parts that were replaced are as follows; two front rims/one rear rim/three tires/RF hub and bearing assembly/half shaft/RR hub and bearing assembly/RR knuckle/RR upper & lower control arm/RR toe link/RR shock assembly/front fender/front fascia/splitter/diffuser/marker light. The total for these parts was $19,129.45. There was no structural damage, no deployment of air bag(s) and all things considered minimal damage (if there is such a thing) . ALL RECIEPTS FOR THE WORK have been retained however no pictures exist unless taken Geico (On a personal level I have always had something against taking/keeping photos of things or events that were undesirable).
While the car was at The GT Guy we had them install a Heffner Pulley & Engine Tune (with the spark plugs being properly gaped), a GTG X-Cat Back Exhaust (see pictures) and a GTG Clam Shell Release Hooks (this allows you to engage both engine hood releases at once from one side of the car or the other-see pictures). The car was Dyno'd at Baseline HP and also after performance upgrades to verify HP increase. The car Dyno'd at 550 HP and 640 HP respectively. The following is a summary of flaws which currently exist on the car; rear tires need replacement, the flapper valve on the stem leading to the gas tank allows gas intake at a slower then usual rate, three small paint chips within the engine bay on the frame reinforcing members ( see pictures of engine bay...difficult to see),one 1/8"paint chip on the front passenger fender (see picture) and minor abrasions to three rims.
I will honestly answer any questions that may arise once you have looked at the ad. Thank-you for your interest and can only hope that the car goes to someone who will enjoy it as much as we did.
Gods Blessing's to you.

2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost to hit 45 mpg for $16,445*
Mon, 28 Oct 2013When Ford first announced its plan to put the 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine under the hood of the 2014 Fiesta, it promised hybrid-like fuel economy without a hybrid-like premium. We're still waiting for official specs on this engine, but thanks to the EPA's fueleconomy.gov website and Ford's retail site, we now know what customers can expect in terms of both fuel economy and price.
All along, Ford has said that it expects the 1.0-liter EcoBoost to get more than 40 miles per gallon on the highway, and now the EPA backs this up with official ratings of 32 mpg in the city and 45 mpg on the highway. These numbers are an increase of two mpg city and four mpg hwy compared to the current fuel-sipping Fiesta (the 1.6 SFE), and it also beats other three-cylinder cars for highway mileage like the 2014 Mitsubishi Mirage (44 mpg highway) and 2014 Smart Fortwo (38 mpg highway); the Fiesta 1.0 EcoBoost is lower than both three-pot rivals, though, in city fuel economy with the Mitsubishi getting 37 mpg city and the Smart rated at 34 mpg city. This model handily beats high-volume small cars like the Honda Fit, Toyota Yaris and Chevy Spark in both city and highway numbers.
As for pricing, the 1.0-liter EcoBoost is offered on both the sedan and hatchback as a $995 option called the SE Manual EcoBoost package, which is aptly named since it's only offered on SE trim-level Fiestas equipped with a manual transmission. Along with the engine, the package also comes with 15-inch steel wheels, regenerative brakes and a decklid spoiler on the sedan. This means the four-door Fiesta 1.0 EcoBoost will start at $16,445*, or $17,045* for the hatchback (*not including $795 for destination).
2014 Ford F-150 gets CNG option
Wed, 31 Jul 2013Ford is toiling away, installing heavy-duty engine components into select 3.7-liter V6s to allow them to run on compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquid petroleum gas (LPG) in addition to gasoline. That's nothing new, but now, Ford has announced that it will offer the 2014 F-150 with this engine configuration, bringing the Blue Oval's total number of CNG/LPG-friendly vehicles up to eight. The F-150 will be the only half-ton pickup on the market that can run on these gases.
Ford will charge $315 per vehicle to equip the optional engine, but the trucks won't be ready to run on the alternative fuels straight from the factory and must be upfitted with additional equipment. A Ford Qualified Vehicle Modifier will install a separate fuel system for the compressed gases at a cost of $7,500 to $9,500, depending on fuel tank size. With the right-size tank, the F-150 equipped with the CNG/LPG-prepped engine can go 750 miles on one tank of gas, according to Ford, averaging 23 miles per gallon.
The practice of offering flex-fuel vehicles is gaining momentum as businesses take advantage of cheap gas. CNG can be bought for $2.11/gallon on average (per gasoline equivalent), and sometimes for as little as $1.00 in some parts of the US, Ford states. "With the money saved using CNG, customers could start to see payback on their investment in as little as 24 to 36 months," says Jon Coleman, Ford's fleet sustainability and technology manager. The automaker expects to sell a total of 15,000 CNG/LPG-prepped vehicles in the 2014 model year.
