Vehicle sold as is ...the body is in overall good condition, with some rust underneath from sitting but nothing catastrophic.
Rocker panels were recently replaced due to rusted mounts. No collision history that I'm aware of. I purchased it from the original owner in 2007. The mileage was 83,060 at the time, so I only put 14,000 miles on it in 5 years. I always took good care of the car mechanically and oil was changed regularly. Current mileage is 97,252 miles.
The interior in good condition. There is a small cigarette burn in the driver's seat. The car was smoked in, but it's not horrible and it would look great with a good detailing.
The car has sat for 2 years. A water pump leaked and the engine overheated, cracking the head and antifreeze got into the bottom end.
My intention was to rebuild or replace the motor, but never had the time or the money.
Unlike many Tauruses, this one never had transmission problems. I serviced the transmission regularly.
From sitting the tires and battery are shot, so it needs tires and a battery as well.

This is a good car for someone mechanically-minded who might happen to have a spare Taurus 3.0L DOHC engine laying around and the time and/or resources to swap or rebuild an engine.
There aren't too many of these floating around with less than 100k mileage. They were good cars, and ran forever ...unless you overheated them.

I'm listing it for $399 firm ...only because there are several local salvage yards that will pay me exactly $400 for it, and they'll pick it up.
I'd rather see it back on the road again for somebody though.

Inside the Ford GT's interior

Mon, Mar 23 2015

Ford has crafted a simple yet high-tech interior for the GT supercar, which has been on display at auto shows around the world this year. The instrument panel has a two-tier design with a floating wing. There are soft-touch materials and carbon fiber, which also is used for the passenger cell. Still, the GT's interior has been shrouded in more mystery than the rest of the car. To cast some light on the GT's cabin, we caught up with Ford design vice president Moray Callum, who explained the ins and outs of the future icon's interior. Put simply, "there's not a lot of excess materials," Callum said. But what is there is pretty cool. In case you haven't heard, Ford plans to launch the GT in 2016. It will run a mid-mounted twin-turbo EcoBoost V6 paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox and make extensive use of carbon fiber for the body structure. Related Video:

We drive the 2016 Ford F-750 Tonka dump truck

Thu, May 28 2015

The Ford F-750 dump truck stands nearly 10 feet tall and is painted bright yellow. It idles patiently yards away from Ford's test track in Dearborn, MI. "Tonka" is emblazoned on the sides. We pose the obvious question to Ford marketing manager Mark Lowrey: Why do this? "We built this truck to get attention," he replies. And indeed it does. Ford revealed the 2016 F-750 Tonka dump truck in March at an industry show, underscoring that the Blue Oval is back in the business of big trucks after years of teaming with Navistar in a joint venture. The new F-650s and F-750s start rolling off the line at a factory near Cleveland this summer, and the order bank is open now. The trucks come in regular, super, and crew cabs and offer three states of tune for the 6.7-liter Power Stroke V8 turbo diesel, plus a gasoline-fed 6.8-liter V10. Naturally, the Tonka has most powerful diesel mill, with 330 horsepower and 725 pound-feet of torque. The Tonka edition is a paint-and-sticker one-off that Ford is using as a promotional tool. You can't buy one, and it will be touring shows and events throughout the year. Lowrey notes that it calls attention to work trucks in a positive way. The general public usually only sees them when the trucks are blocking the road or making too much noise at a construction site. Tonka trucks, on the other hand, conjure up happy childhood memories. "We're going to do something where someone's going to see this truck and smile," he says. It's hard not to grin as we climb into the cabin of this monster truck. It has a 33,000-pound gross vehicle weight rating and can carry five yards worth of dirt. We're not doing anything like that today – just puttering around Ford's handling circuit inside its product enclave. The course is closed, so even though this track is better suited to calibrating Mustangs, F-150s, and well, almost anything but a dump truck, we're totally relaxed. We depress the button to release the parking brake and are off. The truck is surprisingly easy to drive. The vision ahead is excellent Â– makes sense, we're nearly one story off the ground, after all. The cabin is simple and cleanly laid out. It looks like a Ford truck, regardless of the size. The diesel engine has a lot of grunt. We can feel the torque. The steering is light, and we have to stomp on the air brakes to slow this thing down. We go 'hot' into a tight corner just for fun. It's not really that fast, but it raises the eyebrows of our film crew, which is set up nearby.
