For your consideration is our 2002 ford Taurus lx.  I picked this up for my oldest son at a state of Connecticut surplus auction 4 or 5 years ago.  The state of CT maintained the car very well but it did come with numerous exterior dings and dents that you will see in the pictures.  The nicks never bothered us as we just wanted a safe, reliable, efficient vehicle for our boy.  This car has been very dependable for us and will make a great car for its new owner.     

I've spared no expense maintaining this car.  It has four newer matching tires with 75% or more tread. I've been good about changing the oil end fluids on time using premium oil.  It has new rotors and brake pads all the way around and stops on a dime.  We recently replaced the starter, charged the air conditioning system, and did a complete service with new oil, oil filter, air filter, spark plugs, spark plug wires, and windshield wipers.  The car runs as good or better than new with no leaks, vibrations, noises, or rattles. 

The interior is very clean and never smoked in.  Other than the state supplied nicks on the outside, you'd never know the car is 10 years old.  It comes with a nice pioneer stereo system that will link to your ipod or mp3 player.  We always know when he's pulling in the driveway because the stereo thump precedes him.

The car is surprisingly good on gas for a mid size sedan.. I think he gets high 20's on the highway and low/mid 20's around town.  The front wheel drive and good all season tires make this car amazing in bad weather. 

As for the negatives, there really is nothing to mention other than the exterior dents and scratches.  There's virtually no rust or mechanical issues to mention. Bid confidently knowing you're getting a safe, dependable, well maintained vehicle.  The winning bidder can pick this up and drive it across country with no worries.

This is a no reserve auction. Cash at pickup is strongly preferred though paypal is ok if you must. Please plan to conclude this transaction within 7 days of auction close.

Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014

Thu, 27 Feb 2014

Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.

Yesterday, the Ford Mustang turned 49 years old, and Ford didn't miss the opportunity to celebrate the one millionth version of the Mustang rolling off the assembly line at the Flat Rock Assembly plant. Production of the Mustang at Flat Rock coincided with the fifth-generation design launching in 2004, and the one millionth car was the car shown above, a 2014 GT convertible painted in Ruby Red.
In total, Ford has sold more than 8.5 million Mustangs since the original car went on sale, but some of the key milestones over the car's nine years at Flat Rock include the Shelby GT-H, Bullitt, Boss 302 and, of course, the 662-horsepower Shelby GT500. Scroll down for a press release celebrating Flat Rock's milestone Mustang.
