Up for sale is my 1995 Ford Probe GT. I am the second owner of the vehicle and used it to commute to and from work for about a year. The car is a great vehicle, low mileage for the year and it has a fun to drive 2.5L V6 with 5 speed. After a year of driving the car, I got a company car through my work and didn't drive it much, but still liked the little Probe. The car wasn't driven much for about 2 years as I had a company car, but I did take it out on weekends and around town to run it. The car is mostly stock with the exception of a cold air intake and a test pipe for the exhaust which takes away the cat converter. I have all the original air intake and catalytic converter. The car passed NJ inspection with flying colors, but if you live in NJ and want me to reinspect it should you win, I will do so for an additional $100.00. I purchased new tires about 1 year ago and have only put about 2000 miles on them, I also brought it to a local mechanic for a tune and checkup at that time. The car needed a new radiator and a new distributor and crank position sensor. I also put new brakes on the car and new rear calipers. I have had the oil changed on this car every 3500 miles and have taken good care of it, however it is an older car and despite the low mileage it does still need a few things. The car needs a new battary as the one thats in there now runs down and the gauge on the dash shows it's low. The car also has a hole in the exhaust near the muffler so it's louder than usual. Honestly, I was between putting Borla exhaust and a new battery or selling it for money for a ring for my girl. It came down to keeping the girl and with this being an older car other things can come up that need fixing and being that I don't drive it that much, it's just not worth it for me to put money into it. The exterior of the car is ok for it's age, it has a few small dents on the hood, sides and roof. The paint of the rear bumper is faded and the PS FR fog light is missing. The PS of vehicle has a dent in the quarter panel and as a result it's caused a gap near the ps hatch lid. Also, the ps rear window is not cemented at the bottom. If you are looking for a mint condition Probe, this is not your car...However if you are looking for a good probe with low miles and a couple easy mechanical fixes and you don't mind the body having a dent on the PS, this a great vehicle for you. The car is being sold AS IS. I will not ship the car, so if you are the winning bidder you can come and get it or arrange shipping. If you would like to come see the car, please email me, I do work long hours on weekdays and some weekends but I can make a time that you can come out. If you have any questions please email me. The car battery is low, but if you want to drive it home I can throw a trickle charger on it overnight and charge it up for you. I have tried to describe the vehicle to the best of my knowledge, but I am not a mechanic. The car is 17 years old and being that I don't drive it much there could be other things that need fixing, but I am not aware of it. The car is sold as is and where is. There are no warning lights on the dash and all accessories work well. A/C is cold, heat is hot, radio works. The power antenna works but sometimes doesn't extend fully. I usually give it a shot of WD every once and a while and that works. For winning bidder, 500 deposit due via Pay Pal within 48hrs of winning auction and the rest paid cash upon pickup. I have the title in hand and still have an active insurance policy on vehicle so if you come to look, I can take you for a ride. The mileage on the car has been listed, however I may be driving the vehicle locally or for test rides so it might change slightly. I have a video of a walk around car and car running at http://youtu.be/gZILey_FHvg

2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Your Mileage May Vary
As difficult as it is to write this, I was actually excited about the 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid. With the beautiful looks of the newest midsize fighter from Ford and a fuel economy estimate capable of shaming even the stalwart Camry Hybrid, the battery-augmented four-door seemed like a recipe for unabashed success. But appearances love nothing more than swapping our boundless enthusiasm for cold platters of disappointment. The 2013 Fusion Hybrid gets hobbled right out of the gate with a lofty price tag, and real-world driving keeps the sedan from even approaching those EPA figures.
With so many excellent midsize hybrids on the market, is there any reason to consider the newest Fusion Hybrid? Are sharp aesthetics, a well-executed interior and capable driving dynamics enough to overcome the machine's shortfalls? Not from where I'm standing.
Ford acquires Livio to bolster connectivity biz
Thu, 26 Sep 2013Ford Motor Company has announced the acquisition of Livio, a Ferndale, MI-based software development company best known for aftermarket in-car connectivity devices, but also as a supplier of technology for proprietary systems for automakers. Livio, co-founded by Sigal and Massimo Baldini, will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Ford Global Technologies.
"With the additional expertise Livio provides us, Ford intends to continue to lead the next generation of in-car connectivity with technology advancements that give consumers more options to access their devices on the go," said Paul Mascarenas, chief technical officer and vice president, Ford Research and Innovation, in a statement.
Ford is clearly trying to beef up its in-house tech capability around telematics and device connectivity. While the Blue Oval has been a leader in these areas with SYNC and MyFord Touch in terms of getting the systems into as many cars as possible, the execution of the applications have been criticized for glitches.
Jay Leno's Garage goes eco with Ricardo HyBoost
Mon, 17 Mar 2014"Now before you turn away, this is not another boring hybrid car thing..." Despite the slightly defensive introduction from Jay, the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage is actually pretty fascinating. The Ricardo HyBoost is a 2009 Ford Focus that has had a 1.1-liter engine swapped in for the stock 2.0-liter four. That might not get you performance enthusiasts out there fired up, until, that is, you hear that the 1.1L is also fed by both a turbocharger and an electrically driven supercharger for an instant-on "torque-fill" effect. Sounds about right, considering that Ricardo engineering is part of the genius behind the McLaren P1.
Perhaps most exciting of all, the Ricardo folks say that the package should run somewhere in the neighborhood of $1,100. A sort of performance-hybrid that makes sense for the frugal driver and the enthusiast one, then. There's a lot more to the HyBoost, all of which can be seen in the video below.
