Up for Auction is a:

My Freestyle is a 2006 Limited AWD and is loaded with virtually every option available including: DVD, Navigation (2009 Nav Disc), front, side full length air bags, driver and passenger seat airbags. 7 passenger seating, rear heat/air, sliding moonroof and much more. I have a copy of the original window sticker which I can email.  THIS IS A NON SMOKING CAR.  Actual Mileage as of September 2nd is 146,502.  This is my daily driver and I am limiting the amount of driving I am doing since placing her up for sale.  I will update again if necessary.

What I've done to her: I've changed her oil every 4500-5000 miles using Motorcraft 5W20 Synthetic Blend and Motorcraft Filters, Air Filter, Front Lower Left and Right Control Arms, Sway Bar end Links, Tuned up at 120,000 miles with Motorcraft plugs, Front brakes and rotors, rear brakes. I also installed a cabin air filter as discussed in one of the blogs. She has 147,000 miles and if you look into the oil fill port on top of the engine, the timing chain shines. She also has a new radiator and antifreeze change, PS fluid change from mineral to Synthetic Mobil 1 ATF.   The transaxle roll resister and the lower front transmission are brand new.  The most important service on this vehicle is the CVT Fluid.  The CVT has been serviced in accordance with the maintainance log at 60,000 and 120,000 miles.  This included draining and replacing the fluid and the high pressure filter as well as the filter in the bottom pan.  I have marked the service date and mileage in the engine compartment.  As for oil changes, I follow the electronic reminder in the dash and change when the reminder gets to 20% oil life left. The Oil was changed today (09/01/2013).
 
Knock on wood, she has never had an engine code or the wrench light come on and has passed NY State Inspection every year since I purchased her in 2008.

We just came back from three weeks in Florida and the air blows cold and the temperature control panel works great. She got 26-27mpg on the highway and has averaged the usual 17-18mpg around town. (We live in NYC).  For traveling, this car has the rear DVD entertainment system.  The front stereo/nav system allows the DVD system to be isolated from the radio and cd's using wireless headphones in the rear.  I am also including the headphones and DVD remote control.

What I have planned for the near future: I maintain her with only Genuine Ford Parts and was purchasing front shocks. I have the Motorcraft Strut Mounts for the front and a Monroe Sensormatic 72260 for the Left Front. Right shock is (Monroe 72259) is on its way. I also have a new serpentine belt to go on. I purchased but never installed two rear sway bar end links but the are included. Also have but haven't installed a new heated seat pads in the drivers seat.  If I have good weather, I will install the new shocks or if the car sells, they will be included with the car as well as the uper strut mounts.

What she will need: She will need four tires as well as an alignment after the shocks and tires are installed. The current tires probably have another 10,000 mile left on them.

Her general condition: There is one cart ding hardly noticable on the drivers door. A stone chip in the front windshield has been repaired by Saflite. There is a very slight verticle dent in the rear bumper cover on the right side. There is no rust anywhere on the car.  All these items will be included in the additional photos I am going to post.  We are expected to have horrible weather over the next two days and once it has passed, I will take them.

She is a strong runner and the AWD works perfectly. There have not been any accidents with this car and she has not been abused whatsoever. She handles the snow really well where others don't. There has been only one other owner and they maintained the vehicle through their Ford Dealer. I have that record available.

I do have the NY Title with a Lien against her which this sale will satisfy.  I will forward the title to the new owner via express mail along with a bill of sale.  Also, by NY Law, the lienholder must send the Lien Release within 20 days which I will also forward via USPS Express Mail.  Having a Lien will not prevent you from registering the car in your name.  It only means that the lien will follow to your state title until the release is received and your state will then issue a clear title.

The purchaser is responsible for picking up the car or arranging for shipping.  However, I will deliver the car within 50 miles of Staten Island once full payment is received.

JUST A NOTE TO PROSPECTIVE BUYERS.  I ALSO HAVE THIS CAR LISTED ON CRAIGS LIST HERE IN NEW YORK.  THERE ARE ADDITIONAL PHOTOGRAPHS THERE THAT ARE TOO LARGE THAT EBAY WON'T ALLOW.  CHECK IT OUT.

The winning buyer is responsible for any taxes from their respective state or local.  I do not collect tax on the sale of this vehicle but will provide a proper NY State Bill of Sale (DTF 802)  that will accompany the title. 

 

Thanks for looking and Happy Bidding

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost already hitting 12-second quarters

Sun, 28 Sep 2014

The arrival of a new Ford Mustang means many things to many people, but not least of them is drag racers. The pony car has always been a mainstay of the drag strip, and the Ford Racing team aims to carry that reputation forward with this latest generation. So it cooked up a few basic modifications on three new 'Stangs and headed to the strips at US 131 and Milan Dragway to see what they could coax out of 'em.
Impressively, the 5.0-liter V8 Mustang GT with a few modifications (but no forced induction) managed to clock a quarter-mile time of 11.77 seconds. Another Mustang GT fitted with a supercharger clocked a blistering 10.97 seconds. But just as intriguing was the modified EcoBoost model that, with only four cylinders and 2.3 liters of displacement, still passed the gates in just 12.56 seconds - nearly half a second better than expected. This with modification limited to a new subframe, half-shaft, drive shaft loops, exhaust, engine calibration, slicks, roll cage and bucket seat. Well done, boys.

Ford to add Android Auto and CarPlay to 2016 SYNC 3 cars via update

Fri, May 19 2017

Ford is updating a large number of 2016 model year cars equipped with SYNC 3 infotainment software, adding Android Auto and CarPlay to the vehicles with a free, over-the-air update via Wi-Fi, or using either USB or going through their dealer. The upgrade will be available for around 800,000 vehicles in total, giving a huge number of Ford car owners the chance to get big infotainment improvements without having to buy a newer model car. The OTA update option is also a big step for Ford – it's the company's first for software ever, and it's one of the major reasons that Ford recently hired around 400 new mobile smartphone engineers, the company tells me. For CarPlay, users will still also need to upgrade their vehicle's USB hub to make this work (which will also incur a dealer visit and a cost), but for those on Android, all that's required is a simple software installation. The USB install method is also faster, but the Wi-Fi update option is the start of the company's efforts to really increase its OTA update program, which will be used for security improvements as well as infotainment bumps. Even with a dealer visit and hardware upgrade for CarPlay, this sounds like a worthwhile thing for 2016 vehicle owners to do. CarPlay and Android Auto are huge upgrades vs. most in-car software, offering navigation and entertainment options that follow you from your phone to your car. Retroactively offering this kind of thing to car owners is a definite change in tone for carmakers, since they typically use these kinds of things as incentives to get people interested in vehicle model updates. But as data becomes increasingly important to automakers as a business, it makes sense to encourage greater in-car use of devices.Written by Darrell Etherington for TechCrunchRelated Video: Auto News Ford Lincoln Technology Infotainment android

North American Car, Truck and SUV of the Year finalists revealed

Thu, Nov 17 2022

The finalists for the 2023 North American Car, Truck and Utility Vehicle of the Year Awards were announced Thursday at the L.A. Auto Show. — The Acura Integra, Genesis Electrified G80 and Nissan Z made the cut in the car category. — The Ford F-150 Lightning, Chevy Silverado ZR2 and Lordstown Endurance advanced in trucks. — And the Cadillac Lyriq, Genesis GV60 and Kia EV6 advanced among utilities.  The winners will be announced Jan. 11 in Detroit.  The finalists underscored the industryÂ’s shift to electric vehicles, as all three utilities and two of the three trucks are EVs. The finalists were culled from a list of 26 semifinalists made up of three trucks, 10 cars and 16 utility vehicles that are new this year.  Notables that missed the cut include the Mercedes EQE, Subaru WRX and Toyota GR Corolla in cars; while the Honda CR-V, Kia Sportage and Rivian R1S were among the utes that did not advance. The three trucks are the only ones eligible this year and have advanced through the voting.  50 jurors who work for media outlets across North America vote three times over the course of the year to whittle down the field, which was originally 47 vehicles. Jurors also test the semifinalists at an October group event in Ann Arbor, Mich. The Honda Civic (car), Ford Maverick (truck) and Ford Bronco (utility vehicle) were the 2022 winners.
