Rochester, New York, United States

 This is a nice running and working Suv.

I purchased it to help my friend when the motor gave him problems.

He had replaced the transmission with a remanufactured on in may of 2013 at 142K ( with receipt)

When I had the car taken to the shop, i opted to just replace the motor with a somewhat lower mileage motor since we did not know the extent of the problems within the original.

The new motor had 125K and the suv had 145,996

after new motor was installed we discovered the issue was a hole in the radiator that caused original to overheat, and thus.. whaola.. new motor.

so I installed a new radiator, serp. belt, battery, then 2 weeks later the right rear half shaft and hub.

I have driven it over 1000 miles, and then summer came and I got my summer car out, so this one is in the barn.

Ther is nothing wrong with it, everything works, air, power options, everything.

With this said, there are some flaws, its 10 yrs old with 147K.

the exterior has some scratches, the right frint corner has a wrinkle in the bumper,  the rear gate has a small spot of rust starting, as is also on the RR wheel well when you open the rear door.
The interior is light tan, and shows wear. the steering wheel has some tan worn down to the darker brown leather on the left side. the seat show wear.  the pockets on the front dors have been removed ( IDK why) and the handles for reclining the front seats need to be replaced as they are missing. the left front seat is missing the plastic trim around the base of the seat

None of thse are major issues, I am simply trying to be as detailed as I can, because I know how hard it is to buy a car sight unseen.

Mech the only thing I know is there is a tiny oil drip near the oil filter. In the 1000 miles I have used it it say It might have lost a 1/4 cup? its not dropped on the dipstick at all.. its a Tiny tiny spot I noticed.

It did pass NYSI in april or may, and I have not had any service light come on.. its really running nice.

I will drive it again this winter if I dont sell, but its not the best on gas, so Id be ok with getting something smaller. I have achieved up to 19mpg Hwy and it averages, 13.5-15 normally. average for a awd suv with a v8.

i have receipts for all work listed, I lost the labor receipt for the motor install, but I do have the motor  receipt, and have no problem taking you to the shop that did the work. they are very reputable.

Conan O'Brien takes McConaughey's Lincoln ad to its logical conclusion

Thu, 11 Sep 2014

We all had to see this coming. Conan O'Brien has released a parody of Matthew McConaughey's new ads for the 2015 Lincoln MKC and remixed them with lines from one of his most critically acclaimed recent roles.
The now much darker commercial probably isn't how Lincoln would prefer the MKC to be marketed, but really in a few of the actual ads, McConaughey already seems moments away from breaking into a full Rustin Cohle from True Detective impression. The cadence and tone of his voice are just so close to that character, especially in the one where he's talking to the bull standing in the middle of the road. It very nearly verges on parody anyway; Conan is just turning all of this up to 11.
It's a little surprising that the writers didn't dig a little deeper into the McConaughey oeuvre for the parody. Maybe McConaughey could have taken the MKC for a party at the Moon Tower from Dazed and Confused. In any case, it's worth a quick watch, so check it out.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes

Thu, 10 May 2012

When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.

MyFord Touch getting buttons and knobs back to counter criticisms

Mon, 17 Jun 2013

Ford deserves credit for being a front-runner in offering advanced infotainment technology with its Sync and MyFord Touch systems, but continued consumer complaints over its confusing touchscreen interface and capacitive controls has made the automaker relent. The Wall Street Journal reports that physical buttons and knobs for controlling tuning and volume will be coming back to Ford vehicles equipped with the controversial infotainment system.
The 2013 F-150 with MyFord Touch gives us a glimpse of what the new layout with buttons and knobs might look like, as Ford says a similar balance of touch screen capability and buttons/knobs are what's being planned for future models. And, while capacitive controls have no fans in the halls of Autoblog, many of Ford's models with MyFord Touch do have a large physical knob for adjusting volume with integrated buttons for tuning and advancing tracks, though most of those are models with the optional upgraded Sony Audio system. Lincoln models with MyLincoln Touch, however, feature only capacitive controls for all stereo and climate functions.
Despite receiving enough complaints to throw buttons and knobs back into the mix (a move that reminds us of BMW's iDrive trajectory, among others), Ford reports that Sync and MyFord Touch have still been sold on 79 percent of its 2013 model year vehicles, a number it claims is double the rate that Honda and Toyota are getting for their infotainment systems. Ford also states that owners who do opt for the duo of technologies are more satisfied with overall vehicle quality than those who don't have it.
