2003 Ford Explorer Awd 4wd Eddie Bauer Green And Tan on 2040-cars
Golden, Colorado, United States
Excellent condition 2003 Ford Explorer with the somewhat rare Eddie
Bauer two-tone leather interior and 4.6L V8 engine. We have owned this
car since 2004 and it has been an extremely reliable vehicle.
Amazingly, it can get up to 22 MPG on the highway. Regularly
maintained, and it really is in excellent condition for a 2003. That
being said, there are minor cosmetic things that I will list below, but
know that this is an excellent vehicle that I have little doubt will
reliably run for another 100,000 miles if not significantly further.
Here are some details:
- Eddie Bauer package, with two tone leather seats - 4 door with rear full door that can also open via the rear window - Michelin Latitude X-ice snow tire (probably 50% life remaining) - Power Sun Roof - New JVC Stereo with CD and AUX inlet - Luggage Rack - All Wheel Drive / 4 Wheel Drive, is great in the Colorado Front range winter conditions - Towing Package with controller - Air Conditioner - Heated drivers and passenger seat Minor cosmetic issues: - crack in windshield in top left, not visible when driving - a couple of minor scratches on hood (probably could be waxed or buffed out) - on plastic bumper under rear left tail light, there is a dent/scrape (probably someone bumped it in the parking lot) - there are a couple of tiny chips in the paint on the right passengers door - Driver's seat, low on the right side almost to where the horizontal seat meets the vertical "backrest" the vinyl (leather on top, vinyl/plastic material on the side) is worn and has a few cracks in it. - Right rear door trim fell off (still have it... about 2 feet, goes above the door handle). - There might be a couple of other minor blemishes, but in general, the paint is in great shape, and is two-tone green and tan. I purchased this in 2004 when it was almost new, and it has been a great, dependable car for my daughter who used it for the last 10 years as a student at CSU (undergrad and vet school). She and her husband are moving to Japan this week, and can't take it with them, so I am selling it for her. Please respond to me via e-mail, or feel free to call me if you have any questions. I am not interested in talking to any dealers, period |

Has the auto industry hit peak hybrid?
Thu, 12 Jun 2014Hybrids are known for their great fuel economy and low emissions, but it looks like given current market conditions, only about three percent of new car consumers are willing to pay the premium for them. A new study from IHS/Polk finds that the hybrid market share among overall US auto sales are falling, despite more models with the technology on sale than ever before.
The study examined new car registrations in March from 2009 through 2014. In that time, the auto industry grew from 24 to 47 hybrid models available to consumers, but market share for the powertrain remained almost stagnant in that time. As of 2009, hybrids held 2.4 percent of the market; it fell slightly to 2.3 percent in 2010 and grew to 3.3 percent in 2013. However, 2014 showed a drop back to 3 percent. Overall hybrid sales have been growing since 2010, but they just aren't keeping up with the total auto market.
According to IHS/Polk, this isn't what you would expect to see. Usually, each new model in the market brings along with it a boost in sales. The growth in hybrid models 2009 to 2014 should have shown a larger increase in share for the segment.
Ford Q1 profits dragged down by warranty costs
Fri, 25 Apr 2014General Motors isn't the only Detroit automaker posting falling profits in the first quarter. Ford just released its Q1 2014 financial data, and it reported a net income of $989 million, down $622 million from Q1 2013. The drop is partially blamed on higher warranty and recall expenses than the company had anticipated.
Financially, Ford suffered a rough quarter almost across the board. Its pre-tax profit of $1.4 billion was also down $765 million from a year ago. Things were even worse in the North American market where operating profit fell significantly to $1.5 billion, down from $2.392 billion in Q1 2013. However, its global revenue ticked up slightly to $35.9 billion, from $35.6 billion in this period in 2013.
Ford admitted that it spent about $900 million on expenses that it hadn't planned for during this quarter. According to Reuters, the company paid about $400 million in additional warranty and recall costs in North America. The automaker didn't explain why the costs were so much higher than expected. However, in the last three months, Ford has had several recalls, including on the 2001-2004 Escape for rust, Explorer for its steering, Edge for its fuel line and others.
The 2015 Ford Mustang is not so mellow in yellow
Tue, 14 Jan 2014When we first saw the 2015 Ford Mustang, much was made of its new, more expressive color palette, which includes the return of both yellow and orange in addition to a new grayish shade, Guard. At that time, we didn't have anything to look at but a few small scale models painted in the new colors - the only Mustangs on display were in Race Red.
For its auto show debut here at in the Motor City, Ford has trotted out a couple of as-yet-unseen shades, including the striking Triple Yellow shown above. The new shade marks a return to a paint color that enthusiasts have been clamoring for, and we must say, it looks excellent under the lights of Cobo Hall.
Stat wise, there are still a number of questions we have about the redesigned Mustang. None of the three engines have had official power figures published. The same goes for pricing information, although if any loose-lipped execs let something slip in Detroit, we'll be sure to let you know. Until then, have a look at the new Triple Yellow Mustang on display at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show.
