Original owner, car was custom ordered and built.
I have all the original paperwork, includes: owners manual, bill sheet, window sticker, service record, prep center sheet, delivery checklist, vehicle PO and invoice, title app., key tags
I also have almost all service receipts that have been done on the car. I am missing a few, but have most. I have the following (other maintenance was done, this is just what I have receipt proof of):
General Maintenance Receipts - 98 (tires balanced & rotated), 99 (tires balanced & rotated), 00 (brake job, tires rotated), 01 (alignment, 2 new tires), 02 (other 2 new tires), 03 (brake job), 04 (tires balanced, flat repair, 2 new tires), 05 (other 2 new tires, registration), 06 (transmission work, complete dealership tune up & servicing, tires rotated, engine check at dealership)
Inspection results - 99, 00, 02, 03, 04
Oil Changes (these were based on mileage) - 3/98, 5/98, 8/98, 10/98, 1/99, 3/99, 5/99, 8/99, 11/99, 3/00, 5/00, 10/00, 2/01, 4/01, 8/01, 9/01, 12/01, 6/02, 11/02, 4/03, 10/03, 4/04, 10/04, 3/05
Recent Work (2013) - New battery, New fuel pump.
Work needed - turn signals are not working, also the door ajar sensor is messed up and registers that the door is always open, so the interior dome light stays on, which in turn runs the battery down. So, to save the battery we have it disconnected right now. These could be a minor issue, something as simple as messing with the fuses, just not sure. Will probably need some front end work, as it's making a little noise. A/C needs servicing (might just need freon). Will need tires (the ones on it have tread, but the car has been sitting, so they are dry rotted). We drive it around the yard when we move it, but wouldn't trust them on the road, it will need to be trailered even though it runs. Car has not been registered since 2005, title is clear.
I'm also listing car on Ebay Classifieds; if I get an offer there before the reserve is met here, I will be cancelling this auction. Thanks!

Ford to build Explorer in Russia to meet demand [w/video]
Fri, 12 Apr 2013The current Ford Explorer is sold in more than 64 countries, and this three-row vehicle continues to grow in popularity worldwide. To keep up with demand, Ford began producing the Explorer at Ford Sollers Elabuga Assembly Plant in Tatarstan, Russia, a joint venture facility. This partnership will build Russian-market Explorers only, and production of export vehicles not destined for Russian buyers will continue to be built at Ford's assembly plant in Chicago.
Before this plant went online, Ford would ship Explorers to Russia (and other regions around the world) as partially assembled knock-down units where final assembly would eventually take place. While there is no indication as to how many Explorers Ford Sollers will build for Russia, Ford did add that exports of the SUV were up 65 percent last year (from 2011) accounting for more than 24,000 units.
Scroll down for a press release about the Russian Explorer as well as a video (bad music and all) showing the SUV being produced in Tatarstan.
Ford F-150 King Ranch celebrates 'history and authenticity' for 2015 [w/video]
Tue, 04 Mar 2014What's life like on an authentic Texas ranch? We honestly have no idea, having never lived on such a ranch, but we imagine it requires lots of hard work, grit and determination to keep all 825,000 acres - that's larger than the state of Rhode Island - of the King Ranch in Texas under control. Indeed, a total of 350 vehicles, all of which come from Ford, we're told, are currently in use by the ranch. No wonder, then, that the collaboration between Ford and King Ranch has lasted for 15 successful years.
For 2015, in celebration of that 15th anniversary, Ford is debuting three new King Ranch models today at the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. The most significant is the 2015 F-150 King Ranch, which, naturally, will add unique interior and exterior bits and pieces to the new aluminum-intensive F-Series pickup. Color choices will consist of Caribou, Bronze Fire, Guard and Ruby Red Metallic Clearcoat, with a range of two-tones to go along with a monochromatic scheme in Caribou. Inside, a bespoke King Ranch interior will be swathed in Premium Mesa Brown leather.
Joining the F-150 King Ranch on dealership floors later this year will be 2015 King Ranch editions of the Super Duty pickup and Expedition fullsize SUV, all of which will offer similar levels of content. Scroll down for more details and two videos from Ford, and be sure to check out the high-res image gallery above, which was shot by the official State Photographer of Texas, Wyman Meinzer.
V6 engines will outpace V8s for the 2015 Ford F-150
Wed, 23 Jul 2014How times have changed. Even five years ago, who would have thought the mighty V8 would be just another engine choice for buyers of the 2015 Ford F-150?
Ford is projecting about 28 percent of the next-generation trucks will have the 5.0-liter V8. That's nothing to sneeze at, but consider this: Ford figures its two EcoBoost truck engines - the new 2.7-liter V6 and the existing 3.5-liter V6 - will also each account for about 28 percent of the F-150's sales (56 percent total). That leaves only 15 percent of the pie for the 3.5-liter (non-EcoBoost) V6. The new F-150 goes on sale late this year.
