This 2001 Ford Taurus SEL was acquired by a mechanic as a part of a trade for services rendered on the previous owners SUV. A thorough inspection revealed the SEL was extremely sound mechanically with a beautifully maintained interior.
Manufactured by Ford in April of 2001, this car was purchased buy the sole owner in May of 2001 and driven an average of less than 8,500 miles per year. The interior leather and appointments are in excellent condition, reflecting relatively light use over the past 12 years. The SEL trim level was the top of the line for the Taurus in 01, offering a plethora of standard features. In addition, this Taurus was equipped with a few additional options, including traction control, Mach premium sound system with a 6 disc trunk mounted changer, power adjustable pedals, power glass sliding moon roof, and side impact air bags. EVERYTHING on this vehicle is in full working order. When tested, the automatic climate control system produced 43 degree max A/C with an outside ambient temperature of 66 degrees.
The Duratec 3.0L 24 Valve V-6 is a strong runner, producing 200 hp and 200 lb-ft of torque, with an EPA estimated fuel economy rating of 20 mpg in the city and 27 mpg on the highway. Inspection of the spark plugs showed gaps between .053" and .055", falling within the factory specs of .052" and .056". All fluids are appropriate in appearance and at proper levels, and the one year old Interstate battery is in good shape.
The undercarriage is clean and relatively rust free. Front pads and rotors are also in good shape with approximately 90% life remaining, and the rear drums are in good working order.
The set of 215/60/R16 Continental ContiPro Contact tires are all in good condition and have an average of 10/32" tread depth remaining.
The exterior of the Taurus cleans up well, but is showing some age in a couple of areas. Other than minor dings and scratches, there is a rust spot forming over the left rear wheel arch, and both front and rear bumpers have a few cracks. The alloy wheels remain bright with only the slightest bit of corrosion around the edges.

Amazon looking to bring Kindle to your next car?
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Maybe so. The online retailer and digital media monolith recently announced the Amazon Cloud Player, an application for Ford Sync that allows users to stream media from their Amazon Cloud account directly to a Ford vehicle. This foray into automotive technology got the minds at Gigaom.com thinking about what could be next for Amazon. As Kevin Fitchard writes, the logical step is to make audio versions of your Kindle library selections available in your car. As he points out, Amazon has already laid the groundwork for such a move.
Amazon pulled the sheets back on Whispersync for Voice last year. The tech pairs ebooks with an Audible book for a small extra fee, allowing users to either read along with a narrator or switch between audio and text versions on command. Fitchard says it wouldn't be some great leap to apply the same principles to a car, where voice recognition software would allow users to pause or select chapters without ever taking their eyes off of the road.
It all sounds just fine to us, but Amazon hasn't said a thing about such a move. Still, we wouldn't be surprised to see the company come down this road in the near future just the same.
NHTSA upgrades Ford floor mat unintended acceleration probe
Mon, 17 Dec 2012According to a Bloomberg report, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has upgraded an investigation into complaints of unintended acceleration lodged against Ford vehicles. The investigation began in June of 2010 when just three complaints had been received and it only concerned the Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan, but this was at a time when the phrase "unintended acceleration" made grown men go pale. With 49 additional complaints received since then, the investigation has been reclassified as an engineering analysis - the last phase before a recall - and it has been expanded to include the Lincoln MKZ, making for a total of "around 480,000" units affected between the three sedans from the 2008 to 2010 model years.
The ostensible cause is that floor mats are trapping the accelerator pedal, but according to a Ford statement at the time, the entrapment is due to owners placing the optional all-weather floor mats, or aftermarket floor mats, on top of the car's standard floor mats. NHTSA has backed up that assessment, pinning the blame on "unsecured or double stacked floor mats."
On the face of it, it would appear that NHTSA has upgraded the status not because of Ford's error, but owner error, and Ford has stated publicly that it is "disappointed" in NHTSA's move. On top of NHTSA still being skittish after that other unintended acceleration debacle, it could be seen to be taking its time investigating all of the variables: it's reported that Ford changed its accelerator pedal design in 2010, a "heel blocker" in the floorpan has been considered a potential culprit in how the floor mats could be trapping the pedal, some drivers have said the floor mats weren't anywhere near the pedal, and according to a report in the LA Times, in "a letter sent by Ford to NHTSA in August 2010, the automaker said it found three injuries and one fatality that 'may have resulted from the alleged defect.'"
You can now order Domino's pizza from your Sync-equipped Ford
Tue, 07 Jan 2014
The news keeps pouring in from the Consumer Electronics Show now underway in Las Vegas, and the latest comes from Ford which has announced two new apps for its Sync AppLink system.
First up is a cooperative app launched by Ford together with Domino's Pizza that lets drivers of the former order pizza from the latter right from their car. The service allows those with Ford Sync AppLink in their car or truck and are registered with a Domino's Pizza Profile to place an order for their favorite pie using Dearborn's voice-recognition software for either pickup or delivery. Save your information in your Pizza Profile and it'll be sent to your house without even the push of a button, which strikes us as awesome a use of technology as we've ever seen.
