2007 Ford Escape Hybrid Sport Utility 4-door 2.3l - Loaded, No Reserve As-is on 2040-cars
Raymond, Mississippi, United States
|
Up for auction is our 2007 Ford Escape Hybrid. She has been a wonderful car for our family, but now needs some work and we don't have anyone locally who has the equipment to do it. We haven't had any trouble with the car until about 2 months ago when we received a "STOP SAFELY NOW" message on the console. We had the car towed to the dealer who told us that the battery needs replacing and quoted us about $6000. We had it towed to our local independent mechanic who is certified for Hybrid work and had him install a used battery that we purchased here on ebay from a wrecked Escape. Unfortunately, the new (used) battery we purchased had lost its charge and the car still wouldn't crank. Doing some research on the car, it appears that the car won't crank if the Hybrid battery is at less than 30% of its charge. We don't have any way to charge the battery here, so it's time to sell. We did receive a quote of $2,500 to have the battery reconditioned at a Hybrid specialist in Dallas. It's just too far for us to take it. If you have access to a mechanic with a High Voltage Hybrid battery charger, this could be your auction. I will include the original battery that we took out, as well as the replacement we had installed. Since your mechanic will need access to the battery and HV components, I will leave the rear cargo trim covers unattached.
We are the original owners and have kept the car in a garage. The car is loaded with every available option we could add: Leather interior, Nav package with CD Changer, Power Moonroof, Heated Seats, 6 Way Power Driver Seat, Roof Rack, Rear Camera. The car has received all regular maintenance and oil changes with premium synthetic oil. The leather interior is in fair condition, with some wear to the front seats (see photos). The back seats are in good shape as they were covered with a car seat mat. There are a few small spots on the carpet and one faint spot on the headliner above the back seat. The glass is all good. The tires are pretty new (less than one year) and are in good condition. The paint has a few rubbed spots on the doors but is generally good. There are a couple of very small dings on the hood and quarter panel. The car has lived in the South and hasn't seen road salt; there's no rust anywhere on the car. The car has never been in a wreck or had flood damage. The navigation monitor has a bad spot in it that doesn't affect functionality (it's about the size of an eraser). The car was getting an average of 32 MPG on regular commute driving. We are non-smokers. I will be happy to help you arrange shipping or you can come here and load it on your trailer. $400 Deposit is due via Paypal within 3 days. The remainder can be paid via Cash, Bank Wire or Certified Check. The title is clean, in-hand, and current. |

First retail 2015 Ford Mustang headed to Barrett-Jackson
Fri, 20 Dec 2013Want to be the very first person to own a 2015 Ford Mustang GT? Here's what you'll need to do: be in Scottsdale, AZ on January 18 for the Barrett-Jackson auction and bring a very big checkbook. Having a passion for charity isn't a bad idea either.
Yes, the first 2015 Mustang to be sold to the public will be crossing the block at Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale, with proceeds from the auction going to JDRF, the charity formerly known as the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
"Ford Mustangs have always been among the most popular collector cars at Barrett-Jackson Collector Car events," said the president of Barrett-Jackson, Steve Davis. "While every collector wishes they had snapped up the first Mustang sold in 1964, this is an opportunity to realize that dream in a different way."
Ford dissects the heart of the 2015 Mustang, its engine range
Thu, 05 Dec 2013Happy Mustang Day. Are you tired of hearing about the 2015 Ford Mustang yet? No? Good, here's a bunch of mechanical data on Ford's sixth-gen muscle car, along with cutaways of the GT's 5.0-liter V8 and the new 2.3-liter, EcoBoost four-cylinder shown above. We also have a smattering of info on the Stang's updated transmissions and an exploded-parts-diagram view of its all-new independent rear suspension.
Ford is set to make waves offering the Mustang with a turbo for the firs time since the small-volume SVO of the 1980s. Displacing 2.3 liters, the engine's twin-scroll turbo should help the four-cylinder turn out a projected 305 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque, while also returning the best fuel economy in the Mustang's engine lineup. As we said in our Deep Dive, the EcoBoost will be slotted in as a premium engine, above the 3.7-liter V6 but below the 5.0-liter V8.
Speaking of that high-revving eight-cylinder, it's receiving a new cylinder head with high-flow ports. The intake and exhaust valves are larger and the cams have been replaced, among other tweaks. It should rev even higher thanks to a rebalanced crankshaft and forged connecting rods. Ford is still claiming a projected 420 hp and 390 lb-ft, although as many of the changes for the 2015's V8 come from the 2013 Boss 302, we're going to assume there's some sandbagging at work.
Ford Transit Skyliner Concept is a Gulfstream for the road
Sat, 12 Apr 2014If you are afraid to fly or just want to arrive at your ultimate destination in absolute comfort, then the Ford Transit Skyliner concept might be the perfect vehicle for you. Built by Galpin Auto Sports and based on a 2015 Transit, the van is basically a private jet on wheels. It even has a touch of Transformers about it with the ability to switch between four modes by pressing a button in a smartphone app.
Based on the long wheelbase, high-roof model with 487 cubic feet of cargo space and 6 feet, 9.5 inches of interior height, the Skyliner has movable captains chairs that shift around among four modes. In theater mode, the seats turn and recline to face a 52-inch retractable movie screen with 7.2 surround sound. For business, a motorized table unfolds, and the chairs gather around it. There is a mode for tailgating where the door opens four-feet wide, and, when traveling, passengers can recline back with footrests that extend for maximum comfort.
To make the ride even plusher, there is a satellite and media server to meet your entertainment needs, and there is even a built-in bar in the back. If this Ford had a bathroom, you could live in it. Of course, you would need to hire a driver to enjoy all the amenities in the back.
