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 |

2015 F-150 launch to curb Ford profits?
Thu, 30 Jan 2014Ford is making a big bet on aluminum with its new 2015 F-150, and it's possible that the decision will hurt the company financially, at least in the short term. After earning a record $8.6 billion in 2013, the Blue Oval does not expect to set another record in 2014. According to Automotive News, that's "largely attributable to F Series," says Bob Shanks, Ford's Chief Financial Officer.
To retool for the new F-150, Ford will idle its Dearborn Truck Plant in Michigan for 11 weeks and the Ford Kansas City Assembly Plant in Missouri for 2 weeks. "3 of the 13 overall weeks occur during what normally is our summer shutdown timeframe," said Mike Levine, Ford Trucks Communication Manager, in an email to Autoblog. The extra 10 weeks will be preparing for the more aluminum-intensive construction for the trucks and will mean over 2 months of no F-150s being made. For comparison's sake, Chrysler boss Sergio Marchionne just confirmed that the 200 plant in Sterling Heights, MI will be down for 30 days to retool for the new model, but obviously there are many more F-150 production variables than for the midsize sedan.
Levine notes that Ford is already running three shifts at both plants, and says the automaker has plans to ensure that there is adequate supply of the full-size pickups during the retooling process. The company does not want to suffer a shortage of the vehicle that accounted for 31-percent of its 2013 US sales and an even bigger percentage of its profits.
New car market raining on convertibles' parade
Mon, 08 Jul 2013Whether fitted with soft or hard folding lids, today's droptops are better than ever for year-round motoring. Advancements in power top mechanisms, sealing, aerodynamics, structural rigidity, rollover safety and creature comforts like heated and cooled seats mean that modern convertibles are more versatile and better to drive than ever before. Yet the segment's sales took a dive during the recession and haven't come back, Automotive News reports.
Part of that is because automakers are looking at today's more sensible buyers and simply not developing as many new models, and that lack of fresh iron is curbing sales. AN cites R.L. Polk data which notes that only about one percent of new vehicles registered in the US last year had tops that folded. Back in 2009, it was 1.4 percent, and it was 2 percent in 2006. All-in, some 151,636 convertibles were registered in 2012. That's more units more than were registered in each of the past three years, but the market has also grown as the economy has picked up speed, and as a percentage of new vehicles purchased, convertible sales are lagging.
Thus far in 2013, the Ford Mustang is America's top-selling convertible, with 6,421 units registered through the end of April, followed by its rival, the Chevrolet Camaro, at 4,751 units. The Volkswagen Beetle isn't far behind, with 4,305, but from that point, it's a steep drop off to the fourth-place Mercedes-Benz SL-Class and its 2,380 sales.
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...
