This is a very clean, low mileage, one owner, garage kept, well maintained example of Ford’s last version of the Sport Trac.  If you are not familiar with the ’07 and later Sport Tracs and are just looking, you will not be disappointed.  I did my homework when I bought this truck, drove everything, and nothing compares.  This is a half-ton, 4-door pickup with almost 300 HP, over 300 Ft-Lbs, tows 7,000 pounds, and rides like a car.  Ford got this thing right.  This one happens to have a real 4x4 system with rock-crawler low gears, too.  I love this truck, it's easy to drive, easy to park, and the best "do everything" all-round vehicle I've ever owned.  I’m only selling because I also have a diesel, a ’61, and a ’56… I just don’t need all these trucks.

 

Body

The paint shines and so does all the plastic.  This AZ truck is rust free.  It’s never seen snow and rarely seen rain.  Although this truck looks fantastic, it does have the following minor faults: a quarter size dent in the tail gate, a vertical scuff mark on the right rear passenger door, two nicks in the windshield, and adhesive from the shipping plastic on the door key pad.  I have included a picture of each blemish.

 

Interior

The inside of this truck looks and smells great and has never seen smoke.  The instruments look and act like brand new. The switches all do what they are supposed to. There are no broken vents or controls and the A/C blows cold.  The seats are perfectly clean and stain free.  Even the original floor mats look amazing.

 

Engine & Transmission

This truck, and it’s engine bay, is clean and does not leak. There are no fluid leaks, the cooling system works flawlessly, it shifts perfectly, and passes emissions with flying colors.  It fires the first time every time and runs perfectly from idle to red line.  

 

Electrical

The wiring is perfect. Nothing has ever been added, deleted, or altered in any way other than the substitution of an Optima battery. All lights, switches, etc. work like new and the charging system functions properly.

 

Suspension & Tires

The suspension is original and works properly. The tires were replaced with original equipment Fortera tires at approximately 55,000 miles.

 

Brakes

The brakes were checked at the last oil change (80,000 miles) and are good.

 

Payment

I like CASH. No personal checks, credit cards or C.O.D.s.

 

Shipping

Any delivery and shipping are the responsibility of the buyer.  (but I will work with you)

The truck could be stored at my location before pick up as long as it’s paid for in full.

 

Sold as is, where is: no warranty implied or expressed.

 

Buyer pays any applicable Tax, Title, Transport, License and other fees related to this sale.

 

The truck was in a fender-bender in October of 2012.  The repairs were handled by USAA insurance and have a lifetime warranty.  It was not totaled, the repairs are flawless, and there is no trace of this incident anywhere on the vehicle. I'm not sure if it would show up on a report, but if I didn't tell you about it and you didn't look it up, you would not know it happened by looking at the truck.


My truck looks like it’s 3 years old, not 7. I purchased the truck new in Phoenix, Arizona.  It has rarely left the city and the only time it has ever left the state was to go to Las Vegas once and Albuquerque once; both in the summer.  I towed a lightweight trailer about three times, never took it off-road, didn't take it in the snow, didn't ever have anyone smoke in it, and rarely even ate in it; I take care of my stuff.  Maintenance was all done according to the book.  Everything that was supposed to have been flushed, replaced, or otherwise attended to has been.  This is a good truck that will last you a long time, take you wherever you want to go, and look good doing it.

2013 Ford Explorer Sport

Thu, 04 Apr 2013

When one speaks of sporty and fun-to-drive utility vehicles, few would put the Ford Explorer in the same category as the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8, BMW X5 or Porsche Cayenne. Yet, with just a few reservations, I'd toss the new-for-2013 Ford Explorer Sport close to that arena for consideration.
As a recap, the sportiest of Explorers is fitted with Ford's twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter Ecoboost V6, making 365 horsepower and 350 pound feet of torque. Acceleration is brisk (figure about 7 seconds to 60 miles per hour), as power goes to all four wheels through a six-speed automatic transmission. Contributing to its more athletic demeanor are larger front brakes, a sport-tuned suspension, chassis upgrades, quicker steering ratio and a more aggressive wheel/tire package. Cosmetically, the Sport is distinguished by its blacked-out lights, black trim and noticeable lack of chrome (with the exception of the door handles).
Ford recently handed me the keys to a Ruby Red Metallic Explorer Sport. Rather than mindlessly drive the big seven-passenger all-wheel drive hauler in soccer mom circles around Los Angeles, I loaded up my family and embarked on a long weekend road trip to Yosemite National Park.

Ford Escort Concept goes back to basics

Fri, 19 Apr 2013

Here's the thing about China: The folks buying cars there have a very different set of standards than shoppers in many other markets around the globe. While we all drool over hot metal with bold designs, and while we appreciate automakers going an extra step to inject even their cheapest offerings with aggressive and interesting cues, that sort of sheetmetal sex appeal doesn't always sell in the People's Republic. Case in point is Jaguar, which may be designing a more traditional-looking version of its XJ for the Chinese market, or more to the point of this story, Ford currently sells the less-exciting, last-generation Focus compact in China right alongside the new one.
So consider this new Shanghai-bound C-segment concept a preview of what's to come for that more traditional, budget-minded, less-sexy market. More proof of this pudding: Ford's even calling this concept the Escort - a nod to the Blue Oval's compact car days of yore, and a name that stirs up thoughts of basic, affordable transportation rather than great driving dynamics or bold design. "Customers in China described seeking a vehicle that is stylish - but not one that is arrogant or pretentious," Ford states. And this new Escort concept previews a possibility of providing exactly that for this rapidly expanding automotive market.
What you're looking at, then, is one of the most simple Ford designs we've seen of late, though it still incorporates all of the automaker's latest DNA. The signature hexagonal grille is front and center, flanked by attractive LED headlamps and chrome-rimmed foglamp housings. The entire car's design focuses on clean, smooth surfaces, with one strong character line flowing from front to back just below the beltline. We will say that the car looks decidedly more premium from the rear view, where narrow, horizontal taillamps with an LED accent give the car added visual width. Bland as it may be, it's a handsome little concept, though fear what would likely happen if all of the conceptual details get dumbed down for a production model.

NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue

Tue, 07 Oct 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening an investigation into the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ, the 2012 MKZ Hybrid and 2011 Mercury Milan because the agency has hundreds of complaints of electric power steering failure in these models.
According to NHTSA's data, it has received 508 complaints of the power steering allegedly suddenly malfunctioning and resulting in increased effort to turn the wheel. In four incidents, these failures resulted in loss of control and crashes. According to the reports, in some cases a power steering warning message came on as the fault occurred, and other times the system restored itself by turning off and then restarting the vehicle. NHTSA said it has also received further field report data from Ford, but that information hasn't been publicly released yet.
For the moment, there isn't a recall for this failure on these models. NHTSA is just investigating them to "assess the scope, frequency and safety consequences of the alleged defect," and the agency says an estimated 938,000 vehicles could potentially be affected.
