2004 Ford Freestar Sel Mini Passenger Van 4-door 4.2l, Pioneer Audio Nav, Hitch on 2040-cars
Belle Mead, New Jersey, United States
This is my 2004 Ford Freestar SEL with 112,700 mile on it. The exterior is Arizona Beige Metallic and the interior has Pebble cloth seating. The car is running great and it's been a very reliable vehicle. With the 4.2 engine it has lots of power if you want to tow, carry heavy loads or quick entry onto highways. Upgraded features are a Pioneer AVIC F-700BT in-dash Audio, hands-free Phone, backup camera, and Navigation system, a heavy duty Class 3 hitch. The backup camera is brand new. The Pioneer also has a mini phone jack input on front. and RCA jack for audio/video in back. External seat back displays, can be added. The Pioneer plays DVDs/CD etc and has a memory card slot for additional media playing. There is a keyless entry pad on the drivers door and I have two keys and remotes.
The hitch was installed new but never used to tow anything. It is rated for 3500 lbs trailer weight and 350 lbs tongue weight. It was only used for a hitch bike rack. The two center sliding doors are motor powered and automatically open/close with a button or the key remote. There is a backup sensor alarm. and it has a low tire pressure warning system. All tire are good and worn evenly, it has roof racks that are great for canoe/kayak carrying. I took it to the FORD dealer three weeks ago and they installed a new transmission torque converter and rear seat bracket latches under a recall. I have generally serviced and maintain my own vehicles and important service performed is 5/14, new passenger window motor, 6/13/13 fuel filter and new coil pack, new driver rear brake caliper, new front and rear brake pads, bleed all brake lines and new brake fluid, new air filter, injectors cleaned, 9/15/12 new passenger rear brake caliper. 12/10/11 93,792 miles complete tune up, plugs, wires and 5/11 new serpentine belt, new power steering pump,, new idler pulley, new camshaft syncronizer, and 7/30/11 new rear wheel hubs and speed sensors replaced. A new battery was installed last month. Routine oil, filters, transmission maintenance service has been done. Overall this Freestar has needed minimal service. I'm also including a free new set of front wheel hubs and sensors that I did not get around to installing. The front hubs are fine, but since I already changed the rears, I wanted to also do the fronts. Any car mechanic can easily install them for you if needed. The Freestar was used mostly by me in my medical equipment service business. My wife drove it for the last couple of years. We don't have young kids or animals, so the inside and seats are in good shape, very clean. The rear seat folds into a rear recess and the two captains chairs fold forward or completely remove making a lot of cargo space with a flat floor. The Pioneer in-dash navigation/phone and audio sounds great and a microphone is mounted on top of the steering wheel column for easy to use, clear voice hands-free phone through Bluetooth. Other than average use wear, the more obvious things to point out are the plastic pull handle on the rear seat is broken, The front two 12 volt power receptacles don't work and are broken inside. Replacement receptacles can be found on-line for about $10. and the center bottom base where they are mounted comes out with a couple of screws. I had an IPHONE years ago and a cable is routed to the top dash but I don't know if this cable works any more as I have not had an IPHONE for about five years. If needed, this cable is $30. There are a couple of rust spot areas as shown in the photos. I was going to grind, patch and repaint these areas but just don't have the time to do it, there is a crack in the lower driver side bumper/fog light. there is a barely visible dent in the driver side fender, which I hand pushed back out and is pretty close (no pain damage). There is a 1/2" rock ding in the windshield. It's been there for five years and has not extended further. There is a long scratch on the passanger side door plastic moulding. There is some flaking of the clearcoat paint topcoat on the top of one of the sliding doors. Recently a trac off lamp lights intermittently, I search on-line and the problem is related to some loose or oxidized connectors , I cleaned these and it seems to have stopped but, if needed, the other solution is a replacing a $30. pressure sensor. I think I got everything but there could be others but I do try to be as honest as I can. This would be a great/reliable vehicle for a small business or a great family van. It's been a great vehicle for us. |

Weekly Recap: Toyota propels hydrogen fuel cells
Sat, Jan 10 2015Toyota is serious about hydrogen fuel cells, and it wants the auto industry to follow suit. The Japanese automaker said this week it's releasing 5,680 fuel cell patents from around the world, including technologies used on its upcoming sedan, the 2016 Mirai. The move is unusual, but not unprecedented, as Tesla similarly released its electric vehicle patents last year. The idea for Tesla, and now for Toyota, is to spur development of alternative propulsion. "By eliminating traditional corporate boundaries, we can speed the development of new technologies and move into the future of mobility more quickly, effectively and economically," said Bob Carter, Toyota Motor Sales senior vice president of automotive operations, in a statement. Toyota's fuel cell patents will be free to use through 2020, though patents related to producing and selling hydrogen will remain open forever. Toyota said it would like companies that use its patents to share their own hydrogen patents, but won't require it. "What Toyota's doing is really a logical move, and really a good move for the industry," Devin Lindsay, principal powertrain analyst with IHS Automotive, told Autoblog. The announcement was made at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. It comes as Toyota prepares to launch the hydrogen-powered Mirai in a limited number late this year in California. The launch will be extended to the Northeastern United States next year. Toyota also has announced plans to support networks of fueling stations in each region to try to smooth consumer adoption. The Mirai has a 300-mile range on a tank of hydrogen, and it takes about five minutes to refill. Fuel cells have been receiving increased attention recently, and Audi and Volkswagen debuted hydrogen-powered cars at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show. Honda, another proponent of the technology, also showed its updated FCV concept in November in Japan. The company, however, has delayed its fuel cell sedan a year until 2016. Like Toyota, Honda says its hydrogen-powered car will have a range of 300 miles or more. Meanwhile, Hyundai currently offers leases for fuel-cell powered Tucsons, which have a 265-mile range, in Southern California. Despite the optimism some automakers have for fuel cells, the technology still faces barriers. A lack of filling stations has long held it back, and many consumers are not familiar with the potential benefits.
Here are 12 electric pickups in the works
Wed, Oct 21 2020With the unveiling of the GMC Hummer EV, the list of planned electric pickups is expanding. Legacy automakers like Ford and Chevy have theirs coming, as do startups like Tesla, Rivian and Bollinger, as well as some lesser known brands. Here are all the electric pickup trucks we know to be in the works, along with a few that are being discussed or mulled over. GMC Hummer EV The 2022 GMC HUMMER EV is a first-of-its kind supertruck develop View 40 Photos We’ve seen it now, and itÂ’s the business. The GMC Hummer EV comes out swinging with 1,000 horsepower from GMÂ’s new Ultium electric powertrain program, a wealth of off-road features, a removable roof, Super Cruise and the revival of the Hummer name. WeÂ’ll see the first ones on the road next fall. Tesla Cybertruck Tesla Cybertruck at the Petersen Museum View 14 Photos Tesla revealed the Cybertruck last year with, ahem, unique styling, a number of powertrain options and a claimed range of up to 500 miles. It has a compressed paper dash, a ramp for the bed, and “shatterproof” windows. It has already racked up hundreds of thousands of reservations. It will be built in Texas. Rivian R1T 2021 Rivian R1T View 15 Photos EV startup Rivian revealed its R1T electric pickup toward the end of 2018 with a claimed 0-60 time of 3 seconds and a towing capability of 11,000 pounds. Preproduction began in September 2020 at RivianÂ’s factory in Normal, Illinois. Bollinger Motors B2 Bollinger Motors B2 side outdoors View 31 Photos BollingerÂ’s B2 electric pickup is a Class 3 off-roader with retro styling, removable roof panels, and a unique “frunkgate” with a pass-through down the center of the vehicle. It was created with both enthusiasts and workers in mind, with features that can get it to remote places (portal axles, hydro-pneumatic suspension) and to get things done (room for 40 2x4s, equipped with eight 110-volt outlets and one 220-volt outlet). Bollinger also plans to make the B2 Chassis Cab available for fleet customization. Ford F-150 Electric Electric Ford F-150 Towing View 9 Photos WeÂ’ve known this to be in the works since early 2019. Since then, details have trickled out. Back in June, Ford announced its F-150 Electric would be coming within two years. WeÂ’ve seen it pull a million pounds worth of train and trucks, heard it will have more power than any other F-150, and seen its LED-laden front end.
