1998 Ford Taurus 3.0 Liter V6 154,000 Miles Bad Transmission on 2040-cars
Rockaway Beach, Missouri, United States
|
This auction is for a 1998 Ford Taurus sedan. The car has currently has 154,000 miles and has been in the family since about 40,000 miles. It was originally purchased around 2000 by my In-laws used and had just been repaired from a rear-end collision by a professional shop were an entire rear clip had been installed hence the rebuilt title. The motor runs very strong and has been very well maintained with the oil being changed every 3,000 miles. On a weekend trip back in October the transmission suddendly stopped working with no previous warning and the car was towed to its current location. It will not move at all in forward or reverse and will have to be trailored off. The car had new brakes installed less than 1,000 miles ago. The tires are in fair condition, but will need to be replaced before to long. The battery has also gone dead from sitting through the winter and will have to be replaced. It was involved in a minor fender bender last summer that is the reason for the primered passenger side fender and scuffed up bumper cover, the accident was just cosmetic and did not have any mechanical affects. The vehicle is being sold as is with no returns, and I have tried to describe it to the best of my ability since I am no mechanic. The car must be picked up near Rockaway Beach, MO 65740 at the buyers expense. Thanks for looking and feel free to ask any questions. |

We spy the Ford Mustang King Cobra early at SEMA
Tue, 04 Nov 2014As is the case with most auto shows, waiting for the reveal of hot new models is the worst part. So, while our own Drew Phillips has been wandering the halls here in Las Vegas since they unlocked the doors for SEMA 2014, we didn't expect him to come back with any big reveals until later in the day. Until this happened.
Meandering by the Ford stand, Phillips eagle-eyed a trunk lid that caught his attention. Popping out from an otherwise draped 2015 Mustang, the matte black lid clearly has the name King Cobra embossed on the rear.
That name is interesting for a few reasons: to start, Ford hasn't used the Cobra name (without "Jet" attached) since way back in 2004, so a new snake is certainly something to take note of. Second, the King Cobra name dates all the way back to the ill-remembered Mustang II, meaning there is a clear link to Blue Oval history here.
Ford Explorer is America's new favorite police car
Mon, 24 Mar 2014There is a new vehicle that you should keep an eye out for when you're going a little too fast down the Interstate. Ford's Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility was the bestselling new law enforcement model in the country last year, and signs show that won't be changing anytime soon.
Ford sold 14,086 Interceptor Utilities in 2013, up 140% from the year before, and 10,897 Interceptor Sedans, up 31%, according to USA Today. Overall, the brand's police sales were up 48 percent, and they were enough to boost the company's law enforcement vehicle market share by 9 points to nearly 50 percent.
The success comes just a few years after it made the decision to finally retire the long-serving Crown Victoria-based cruiser for two more modern vehicles. "We had to reinvent the category," said Chris Terry of Ford Communications to Autoblog. The automaker had to convince police departments that a unibody chassis without a V8 could perform better than a model that had been a law enforcement staple for years.
US Ford Focus RS to be imported from Europe
Tue, 21 Oct 2014Rumors about the forthcoming Ford Focus RS are flourishing into what sounds like a very impressive new hot hatch. The latest scuttlebutt gives the first indication about when we might see a few of these fast Focuses on roads here in the US.
Unnamed insiders reportedly confirmed to The Truth About Cars that Ford plans to launch the Focus RS in the US in 2016. However, getting one might not be so easy - the boosted powertrain means the car would likely need to be imported from Europe. That's likely going to keep the total number available in the US rather low. The sources estimate a price tag that's a bit more expensive than the top Focus ST3, which starts around $28,500, plus $825 destination.
It seems that a pretty potent package comes for all of that cash, though. The Focus RS reportedly uses a 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder making between 325 and 350 horsepower, with a torque-vectoring all-wheel drive system to get that muscle to the road. The test mules also wear more aggressive front and rear fascias, dual exhaust tips, larger brakes and sticky tires. It sounds like a great formula on top of the already enjoyable Focus ST.
