2004 Mercury Marauder Trilogy Motorsports Supercharged.  Here's your chance to own a fine example of a modern muscle car!  A rare model to begin with, only sold for 2003-04 with around 2500 Marauders made in 2004.  Then add the Trilogy Motorsports supercharger which only 250 were made.  This car is kit # 166.  The Mercury Marauder starts basically as a Police Interceptor undercarriage with the heavy duty brakes, suspension, transmission, and fluid coolers.  Then add the 4V 4.6 liter Mustang engine from the Mach 1 Mustangs of the same year.  Wrap all of that in a gorgeous black Mercury body and Voila!  Modern Muscle at its finest.  This one has been stored in a heated garage and taken out on weekend cruises and the occasional roadtrip.  With less than 50,000 miles, that averages to 5,000 miles a year.  Hardly high usage.  This example has been adult owned and driven by a meticulous aircraft mechanic.  Regular service and care was completed as needed.  The interior is free of any major defects with no tears in the leather.  Every switch functions as it should.  There is an aftermarket Stereo unit with a Tom Tom GPS unit installed.  The stock stereo will be included. Estimated around 450 horsepower to the rear wheels.  Not super fast off of the line, but 40 to ??? acceleration is unbelievable.  Looks so much like a police vehicle, it isn't uncommon to be mistaken for one.  Fly under the radar.  Will bring its new owner many years of hot rod enjoyment.
There are a few minor defects.  You can refer to the pictures for a visual representation.  There is a minor dent in the hood. Can be pushed out by a qualified dent removal shop.  There are a couple of minor scratches on the paint with the worst on the right front fender.  The right front wheel has slight curb rash.  The front bumper cover has some paint "spiderwebbing" from a 10mph brush with a deer.  The deer walked away!  This incident did crack the front grill, so it was replaced.  These are small issues that are hardly noticeable.  The car looks great from 5 feet and is in great shape for being 10 yrs old. The tires are a little over 50% tread right now, but a full price offer will secure 4 new tires.  Also comes with the special Mercury Marauder Black leather jacket in XL.
No warranties are expressed or implied.  Buyer to arrange and pay for shipping if needed, but I can assist your carrier.  Or fly in and drive it away, I would not hesitate to jump in it right now and drive coast to coast.  Cash or certified funds only.  Just in time for Christmas!  Don't let this one get away.

Ford recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes

Mon, 18 Jul 2011

Ford has announced through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is recalling nearly 3,000 examples of its Five Hundred and Mercury Montego (pictured) sedans from the 2007 model year.
The action, which affects 2,945 vehicles, is due to potentially defective welds between the filler neck and the fuel tank, a condition that could result in a fuel leak or the smell of gasoline reaching the occupants. In the worst-case scenario, a leak could cause a fire. Cars with the affected fuel tank problem could see an illuminated dashboard warning light as a result of the evaporative emissions leak being detected.
Ford will inspect and replace the fuel tank at no cost to owners (those who have already had the procedure done at-cost can apply for reimbursement), and the Dearborn automaker will begin notifying Five Hundred and Montego owners beginning August 15. Check out the official NHTSA press release after the jump for further details.

NHTSA and Ford investigating steering issues in Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Marauder

Fri, 11 Jul 2014

There may be more steering woes for the Ford Crown Victoria. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened a preliminary evaluation into the Crown Vic and Mercury Grand Marquis from the 2004 to 2007 model years and the Mercury Marauder for the 2004 and 2005 model years because the steering shaft can jam. The issue could potentially affect an estimated 500,000 vehicles.
According to the regulator, there is a possibility that the driver's side heat shield for the exhaust manifold can rust, dislodge, and then wedge into the steering shaft. If this occurs, it leads to a situation where the driver can no longer control the car.
NHTSA has received five complaints of this happening, including one alleged case with an injury. In that situation, the car was driving onto the highway, lost control and rolled over. One occupant was hurt in the accident.

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.
