For your consideration. Ford 1996 Explorer XLT V8 AWD. Always a southern vehicle, never seen road salt. Needs some engine work. Transmission shifts smooth. The vehicle will start and run, but overheats and runs rough. I never took it in to a mechanic, so I have no idea what could be the problem. Take a close look at the pictures. The battery is from 2008, so it might need one soon. This will sell AS-IS and I have disclosed all the know defects with this vehicle. It ran strong and dependable until last week. This SUV had good power and sounded great with Magnaflow cat-back exhaust system. Great buy for a mechanic. 


ATTENTION - YOU CAN START THE ENGINE AND RUN IT - BUT WILL NEED TO BE TOWED OR TRANSPORTED. 

The Exterior >> Tires good. New brake pads and rotors front and rear. New radiator. Body fair condition with no rust out. Custom aluminum billet grill. Aluminum alloy wheels. Drivers side tail light assembly broken, but have new in box replacement (see pictures) that will include with the vehicle. Drivers side electric window does not work. Small scratches and dings normal for year. A few small paint spots peeling, but overall the body is solid and looks good. Magnaflow cat-back exhaust that sounds good. Has Trailer Hitch, but I never towed with it.

Interior >> Leather seats. Drivers seat has rips and has a cover on it. Has been smoked in before and has a few burn marks. All gauges work, but the odometer was broken when I purchased 2 year ago. Odometer stuck on 158000 (mileage is unknown). Air conditioning worked last summer, but it needs a charge now to get colder.

I have a clear Georgia Title. Winning bidder will need to pay in full within 7 days.  Deposit PayPal only. Arrangements to transport or tow the vehicle will be done by the buyer, but I will coordinate with your arrangements as best I can. I have sold several vehicles on eBay, and the transport  car carriers will pick the vehicle up at my house.  I will cooperate and be available to the transport service you choose.

Good luck bidding and thank you for looking !

2015 Ford Mustang to offer solid-rear axle, sort of

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

One of the biggest knocks against the last Ford Mustang was its solid-rear axle. Not one to actively court criticism, Ford dutifully swapped out the old-fashioned rear end for something a bit more modern in the redesigned 2015 Mustang, adding an independent rear suspension across the board.
While an IRS Mustang is great news for those that value handling and ride comfort, there's one big group that it's bad news for - drag racers. See, a solid-rear axle is a big deal for drag racers, because not only is it more durable and cheaper, but it's better for the hard launches that can make or break a race.
To satiate this vocal demographic, Ford will sell a body-in-white version of the Stang, complete with a nine-inch rear axle, that will debut at the 2014 Performance Racing Industry show. The news came from gas2.org, which cited an unnamed employee of Ford Racing at this year's PRI show.

Ford open to diesel, hybrid or electric Mustang? [w/poll]

Sun, 08 Dec 2013

The Ford Mustang may not be the first vehicle that comes to mind when you think of environmentally-friendly forms of transportation. The arrival of the turbocharged four-cylinder engine in the new Mustang could do a lot to combat that perception, but the EcoBoost engine may just be the tip of the iceberg in that regard.
Speaking with Ford powertrain boss Bob Fascetti at the reveal of the new Mustang in Australia, GoAuto reports that the Blue Oval automaker is considering offering its latest pony car with a diesel, hybrid or even electric powertrain in the future.
"We're not looking at diesel at the moment, but given where we need to go with fuel consumption we are looking at all our options," said Fascetti. Other options could include a nine- or ten-speed automatic transmission to replace the current six-speed unit in order to help improve fuel economy and emissions for the Mustang, although figures for the current lineup have yet to be revealed.
