This is our beloved “Mothership” - FIRST AND FOREMOST I have bought and sold many cars on eBay and one thing is paramount FULL DISCLOSURE so here you go, this is the story of The Mothership I am the original owner, purchased this from Varsity Ford in Ann Arbor, MI in Feb. of 2001. She left the lot with 20 miles on her and she will come to you with over 328,000 miles of experience and adventures. Her favorite place on earth is the U.P. in Michigan, if you’ve never been there, just point her north, set the cruise and enjoy the ride, she knows the way. She has also taken us to FL, AL, KY, OH, IL,& WI. We are a family of 5 (six including Fritz our German Shepard) and this truck is a part of our family, but the time has come to part ways. My oldest son was 4 almost 5 when I bought this and he’ll be graduating High School this coming year. For the last 2 years, we have only driven her on family vacations every Thanksgiving & Christmas we spend in the UP (750 miiles round trip). When we all travel together, we all PREFER to take the Mothership vs. our new cars, but we can no longer justify the cost of multiple vehicles. The decision to offer her to a new owner has only taken us 2 years to make :-) She has ZERO mechanical issues. She does has some cosmetic issues and I will detail everything below. This is a 12 year old vehicle so expect to see the typical signs of use and wear. I did not invest in the industrial size bottle of armor all to make the pics look shiny and fake. For those of you looking for a great deal on Ford’s awesome 7.3L Powerstroke Turbo Diesel you’ll find it in the Mothership Here is The Good, The Bad and The Ugly... this is the stuff I would want to know if I was going to bid. The technical stuff (features and options) will come from Kelley Blue Book. THE GOOD She has Ford’s bullet-proof “Million Mile Motor” 7.3L Turbo Diesel runs a smooth and strong as she did when new Oil Changes & Reg Maintenance all done on schedule. A/C is cold Heat works great New Jasper Transmission installed at approx 285,000 miles Front Hubs replaced with WARN (lifetime warranty) locking hubs Shocks are Monroe (Lifetime warranty) Brake Pads (lifetime warranty) ALL fuel injectors & Glow Plugs were just replaced Luke at L&A Auto in Jackson, MI (highly recommend him) has been taking care of The Mothership since she was just a pup. All records are available for the serious bidders New (lifetime warranty) Alternator just installed this Spring, apparently Ford only builds these to last 326,000 miles - go figure :-) New serpentine belt installed last winter New adjuster pulley installed same time as the belt New Fuel Filter just installed these were typically replaced every 5-10k miles Rear climate controls and radio controls all work perfectly No Accidents NO AFTERMARKET PERFORMANCE KITS EVER USED ON THIS TRUCK THE BAD Passenger blinker lens broken - see pictures She will need new tires within the next 3000 miles Rear window will not stay up on it’s own in the cold weather hydraulic arms should probably be replaced Driver side door speaker seems to have stopped working - all the rest are fine The Rear driver side hinged window, the one by the spare tire, the hinge is broken, the motor to open it works fine, but there is a pin that holds the hinge together and it is broken... never been a problem for us because the spare tire is there anyway and Fritz likes the other window open to get his smells along the way There was some body work done on the driver side rear pillar, someone backed into it while is was in a parking lot. Local body shop did the repairs, no structural damage. The driver side back dutch door was replaced, I put a hole in the original door backing up to the trailer (oops) again, no structural damage. New door, some paint, she was good to go. Pull down DVD screen with wireless headphones we are working on troubleshooting this, but during the last use (school field trip) we can't seem to get the DVD out of the machine... so there may be a bonus DVD of The Incredible's included if we can't figure out what's wrong. THE UGLY Various scratches, Stains see pictures, I did my best to show you the most obvious ones, nothing outside what you would expect for a 12 year old vehicle that has “raised 3 kids” and been the go-to vehicle for every school field trip. Chip in the windshield right below mirror mount - see pics Passenger mirror had to be “frozen in place” with silicone. The brackets that hold the mirror in place broke a couple winters ago while we were scraping the mirror and I just haven’t felt like paying the $500 Ford wants for a new mirror assembly. The heated part of the mirror still works fine The back support bracket for the running board on the driver side has rusted out and needs some support. Driver side just behind the passenger door there is a dent and scratch from a blue post office box (turned too sharp too soon) I think this is everything, feel free to email, we will do our best to reply asap. My BUY IT NOW is below the Kelly Blue Book info listed below.

Ford pits Cobra Jet versus GRC Fiesta ST, worlds collide
Thu, 31 Oct 2013Racing takes on many forms in the automotive world. There are sanctioned events that are as varied and diverse as NASCAR, Formula One, Global Rallycross and drag racing, and to be good enough to win competitively in one discipline, you need to have a specialized vehicle. Or do you?
Ford decided to find out what would happen when its Global Rallycross Fiesta ST, driven by Tanner Foust, lined up against its Mustang Cobra Jet drag racer, driven by Roy Hill. In one lane, Tanner has just 2.0 liters of displacement to work with, while Roy has more than double that, at 5.0 liters. Evening the playing field a bit, Tanner has a massive turbocharger and all-wheel drive; Roy has to filter all his supercharged power through the rear wheels only.
So, who wins? We suggest you see for yourself in the press release and video below. And we're holding out hope that Tanner's challenge at the end results in another video from Ford Racing...
Ford lowers MPG ratings on six vehicles
Thu, 12 Jun 2014Ford has announced that it will be lowering the fuel economy ratings on a number of its 2013 and 2014 model year vehicles after an error was discovered in the company's internal testing data. The EPA has been notified.
Worryingly for Ford, the vast majority of the vehicles affected are hybrids, including the C-Max, Fusion and MKZ in both hybrid and plug-in varieties (where applicable). Also covered as part of the rerating is the entire lineup of 2014 Fiesta engines, with the exception of the ST, including the turbocharged, three-cylinder EcoBoost.
The C-Max was originally rated at 47/47/47 mpg, but dropped to 43/45/40 last year and now to 40/42/37.
Ford could post best-ever profits in Q1 2013
Tue, 23 Apr 2013Analysts are saying that Ford Motor Company may have earned a record $2.7 billion pretax profit in North America during the first quarter of 2013, a number that represents its highest first quarter profit ever. The impressive earnings are further proof that the American automaker is making a solid comeback as the economy begins to recover.
Morgan Stanley and JP Morgan Chase are estimating that Ford's first quarter North American profit may have topped 12 percent. The firm cited the automaker's fresh lineup, but noted that CEO Alan Mulally needs to uphold the pace as the company works to gain ground in the car and utility segments.
Ford's success has been led by increased demand for its F-Series pickup, the best-selling vehicle in the US for 31 years, and by the Fusion sedan that recently recorded its best-ever quarterly sales in the domestic market. Ford is expected to release its first-quarter revenue on Wednesday, of this week.
