4.6 V8 Awd - No Reserve - Needs Some Work - Luxury Ford Explorer - 3rd Row Seats on 2040-cars
South Orange, New Jersey, United States
|
Selling my 2002 Mercury Mountaineer AWD with a 4.6 v8 engine (the good model). Timing chain is loose and will need to be fixed/replaced to make the truck drivable again. Great opportunity for someone that is mechanically inclined or knows a good mechanic since the repair cost is mostly just labor. Engine ran smooth before the chain issue, transmission would sometimes shift hard into second but was smooth other than that. This is the 4.6 v8 engine which is far superior to infamous Ford 4.0 v6 that came in most of the 2002 Ford Explorers and Mercury Mountaineers.
Cosmetically this truck is in good shape minus your regular wear for it's age. There is small crack in the front left fender, small rust line over the rear lift wheel, and a small dent in the rear left bumper which are all clearly pictured below. Interior is pretty nice, leather is in good shape the than a 4 inch tear on the bottom of the drivers seat neat the power adjustment controls. The DVD entertainment system stopped powering on after a red wire from the fuse panel got disconnected, should be an easy fix but the DVD system does work. I have a clean clear title free of any liens in hand and ready for transfer, place your bid or make me an offer!

eBay Find of the Day: Mercury Marauder two-door convertible
Wed, 31 Aug 2011Never underestimate what you'll see on eBay Motors. Take this unique creation, for example. Near as we can tell, it's the same 2002 Mercury Marauder that was modified into a two-door convertible by Ford for the 2002 Chicago Auto Show. According to the seller, this car still boasts its Eaton supercharger bolted to a 4.6-liter V8 engine, and at the time of its debut, the engine was rated at a lofty 335 horsepower. We have a hard time believing that the extra ponies would do much to offset the weight of the additional frame stiffeners and top mechanism on the car, however.
The vehicle is currently offered for sale by a dealer in Lansdale, Pennsylvania, though the listing is mum on how the convertible managed to make its way from Ford's Windy City show stand into the seller's inventory. If you like what you see, the machine can be yours for the princely sum of $75,000 or best offer. Head over to eBay Motors to take a gander at the listing.
Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception
Tue, 25 Sep 2012It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues
Wed, 28 Dec 2011'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
