Greetings viewer,
I'm selling off my 1997 Ford Explorer XLT AWD 5.0. This explorer has been well cared for and always maintained. This explorer is not your average POS explorer, nor is it in stock condition. I am the 3rd owner, it lived in New Jersey until about 2005, and then it was used as a vacation car in a Breckenridge condo, where it was garaged. Since I purchased this explorer I have overhauled the entire drivetrain as well as majority of the suspension and steering components. The original motor blew up a few summers ago so it now has a rebuilt 89 Mustang GT HO 5.0. Here are the details: 1997 Ford Explorer XLT AWD 177K miles, 10K miles on the motor All time AWD Automatic Transmission Dual power seats Heater blows hot front and back 60/40 split rear seats Drivetrain -1989 Ford Mustang 5.0 HO 302ci Small block (had about 80k on it when rebuilt) -Explorer 5.0 GT40 upper and lower intake, polished runners -Torque Monster Headers (Specs can be found at TorqueMonster(dot)com -Block rebuilt with new rings, bearings, seals, gaskets, cylinders honed. -GT40P cylinder heads (fully rebuilt and tested for cracks, crack free!) -Homemade Air intake setup with Lexan box to help with heat -Mustang GT roller cam -Transmission serviced -Rear diff serviced -Front diff serviced -Brand new battery Wheels, Tires, Suspension: -15" black steel wheels -31X10.5X15 General AT2 all terrain tires (pre drilled for studs) (12k on the tires) -All new Monroe sense-trac shocks -New Moog lower and upper ball joints, upper control arms, inner and outer tie rods Accessories: -Thule roof rack (mounts and cross bar) -Aftermarket headlights (pass side seal is bad, I have a new seal ordered, I will fix) -Autometer Ford Motorsport branded Water temp and oil pressure gauges (rare!) Bad/Needs some TLC: -Aftermarket stereo deck sucks and needs to be replaced -Needs front brake pads and rotors. They were cheap, they work, but they aren't the greatest. -Caught a golf ball in the windshield at about 60mph on I70 one day, no visibility problems, but should be replaced some day. -Drivers side door lock switch doesn't work, I've replaced the switch so it's a broken wire, pretty common with Fords and usually breaks at the door hinge. -Autometer water temp gauge needs a new sending unit, available from Autometer for about $20 -There is a dashlight or two out in the gauge cluster; I have replacements, just not installed -Turn signal stock has issues in the cold; I have a replacement, just not installed -A/C needs to be filled. It worked excellent, but I had to drain it when I installed the motor, usually about $50 to fill -Small exhaust leak on the two-piece drivers side header. Have the correct bolts to repair it, just not installed. This explorer is in great condition and needs a new home. Never been off road other than the occasional graded gravel road. Fluids changed on the regular. I have owned explorers for 10+ years and I know them inside and out. I know what this explorer is worth and I am going to be completely fair with the price, and you're getting a hell of a deal. Don't call low-balling the price; I don't have time for that. I am open to reasonable negotiation only. $3900 I'm sure I missed some details, so please email, Call or text 720.891.8oh-two4 Located in Denver, CO |

2015 Ford Focus
Tue, 14 Oct 2014Sitting down at the pre-drive briefing with Ford engineers ahead of sampling the refreshed 2015 Focus, water bottles clinked as we wet our whistles before Q&A. While pouring a glass, we noticed something stamped on the bottle label: "1L." One liter. We were palming the exact displacement of the EcoBoost engine our group was about to drive. This was undoubtedly coincidence (such bottles litter every conference and dinner table in Europe) but it served to drive home just how small the total swept volume of Ford's wunderkind powerplant really is. It's tiny.
Of course, this isn't our first run-in with the little triple - we've sampled its turbocharged charms before in Ford's smaller Fiesta. At that time, we found it had plenty of poke for the subcompact, but the larger C-segment Focus carries around another 450 pounds or so and pushes a wider profile through the air. Would the three-cylinder have the stuffing to make the most of the Focus' athletic chassis, or would it be a letdown? Would it be the same as it was when we tested it in a Euro-spec Focus a couple of years ago? There was nothing left for it but to head out on the bucolic roads surrounding Versailles the day after the Paris Motor Show and find out for ourselves.
