NO RESERVE AUCTION!!!!

Up for sale is my 2007 Shelby Mustang GT. I am the sole owner of this car. I put 4.10 gears in the rear, custom hood, spoiler and rear window louvers. This car is truly an eye catcher. She is loud and fast. I am only selling it because I needed a truck for work and just cant afford to store it any longer. She gets good gas mileage for being a muscle car. I can average around 24 mpg. My dreams were to start building the car as a racer/drag car, but that was shortly lived due to lack of funds! I didnt have the time or money to build the car and she was my everyday driver. The car has around 340 horsepower as it stands. The vinyl stripes that came from shelby had defects, so the car was shipped out and stripes were painted on the car. I do have the ford factory stripes and hood scoop from shelby to keep the car original. The package will go to the buyer of the vehicle.

the cons:

The car was parked at my dads shop when a car was t-boned on the intersection, rolled up and went into the back of my car. The bumper was pushed in ever so slightly with paint chips. The woman who hit my car had her insurance company fix my bumper, so an accident report was filed. The rear spoiler has some fading. It didn't bother me, but it could be repainted. The stripes are a factory ford color. The rear end we put in has a slight whine to it only because we added an extra shim for added strength so the drive shaft wouldn't bust on a takeoff. i never did make it to the track as I couldn't risk damaging it and not having a ride to and from work. The car has small rock chips on front bumper and hood from every day NY driving.

I babied this car. No one was allowed to eat, drink or smoke in it. Its time for someone else to enjoy the car like I did. She has always been garage kept.

Translogic drives wood-burning Mercury Beaver XR-7

Sun, 31 Jul 2011

You read the title right, we're talking about the Mercury Beaver XR-7. No, Mercury never officially built a car called the beaver. This is the brainchild of upstate New Yorker Chip Beam, who owns and operates Beaver Energy, LLC. It runs on gases created by wood pellets fermented in a 2,400-degree furnace and fed to a supercharged Ford 4.6-liter V8.
By all accounts, it gets down the road just fine, and has pretty close to full power. The best part is, you can grow the fuel yourself and avoid patronizing big oil, if that's your thing. The only drawback that we can see to the Mercury Beaver XR-7 is the PVC pipe jungle occupying the space that would be the trunk under normal circumstances.
Still, if you're willing to smell like a mountain man and look like a bad Back to the Future knockoff, this ride is right up your alley. Click past the jump to see Translogic's take on this modified Merc.

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.

Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern

Fri, 09 Dec 2011

Ford has announced a recall of certain Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles after an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 128,616 2010 and 2011 models equipped with steel wheels may have been manufactured with wheel studs that could crack and split over time. If that happens, the vehicle may experience a wheel separation.
According to The Detroit News, the company is aware of a total of 30 wheel separation incidents, one of which occurred on the front of the vehicle. Even so, no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect.
The problem apparently stems from the fact that the mounting pads on the vehicles' steel wheels may have been faulty from the factory. In addition, the wheel mounting face on rear disc brakes may not have been installed properly. Ford will inspect the rear disc face and replace them as necessary. In addition, the company will replace all of the vehicle's wheel studs free of charge. Head to the NHTSA website for more information, and click past the jump to view the full recall notice.
