2001 Ford Ranger Edge extended cab 2WD with EFI small block (SBF) V8 tuned by Aric at Injected Engineering (conservative 246rwhp/303ft-lbs @ 4700 RPM). Scat 331 stroker kit with forged SRP pistons (9.5:1, ready for boost/nitrous), Scat forged rods, and Scat cast crank in a 1992 Mustang 302 block. Twisted Wedge Track Heat aluminum heads (2.02/1.60 valves), Anderson B25 roller cam, 1.6 roller rockers, custom Torque Monster headers, GT40 intake, 24lb injectors, Lightning MAF, custom true dual side-exit exhaust w/ high-flow cats and magnaflow muffler, big 3-core all aluminum radiator, and a 4R70W automatic transmission with modified valve body plate (shifts firm), 8.8 w/ 3.55 gears and freshly rebuilt cobra kevlar posi and SN95 Mustang disk brake conversion. EFI is a reprogrammed 1999 Ford Explorer factory ECU; I took the time to get the passive anti-theft system (PATS) completely operational using parts out of a 98 Explorer and had a key programmed and custom cut to work with the factory locks. All gauges and lights work as they should. New adjustable rear air shocks and heavy-duty rear springs, new factory engine mounts, new alternator; ball joints, tie rods, and front shocks changed just before the engine swap.
Good daily driver with functional heat and AC (new condenser, drier, and seals- blows nice and cold; best "mod" ever for Atlanta in the summer), power steering, cruise control, a factory in-dash 6-disc changer, ABS, power brakes, new front and rear pads with new rear rotors, and plenty of tread on the tires. The engine has about 6000 miles on it but the body/chassis has around 189,XXX miles (driven 40 miles daily, this will go up). The truck passed emissions with the V8 last year and is registered with the state as having a V8 in it; it's not showing any codes on a scan tool and does not have a check engine light on. The truck has a few miles on it and the body and interior show some age, but it's a really decent rust-free southern truck.
For reference, in good condition KBB values this truck at over $5000 with the original 3.0L V6 and I have A LOT more than $4500 in parts into this truck along with a few hundred hours of labor. Injected Engineering in Kennesaw dyno-tuned the fuel injection, is familiar with this truck, and can provide future service, programming, etc... Will also come with several factory Electrical Vacuum and Troubleshooting Manuals (EVTM).
Clean and clear GA title in-hand. Email me if you'd like specific pictures of something.

What an Atlas-based Ford F-150 might look like
Thu, 27 Jun 2013Just ahead of January's Detroit Auto Show, surprising rumors pegged Ford as revealing some sort of F-150 concept, perhaps as a hurried effort to deflate some of the buzz building around General Motors' new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra twins, which were also making their auto show debut. Those rumblings turned out to be true, as Ford rolled into the Motor City with its Atlas concept (inset, right), touting the truck's bold styling as a precursor to the next-generation F-Series.
The show truck featured all kinds of clever details, including active wheel shutters and a front air dam that raised and lowered to improve aerodynamics while preserving off-road ability. It also had a genuinely snarly face. And it's that pugnacious snout that may well be on its way to production. The good folks at TopSpeed have worked up the plausible-looking artist's rendering above by cross-referencing the Atlas concept with what little has been revealed from recent spy shots. The look is toned-down pretty dramatically from the concept truck, but its Atlas roots are clear, with a massive three-bar grille and bracket-shaped headlamps hiding a next-generation EcoBoost engine. In the rendering, the show truck's deeply contoured hood and roofline have been ditched and larger, more traditional side mirrors have been fitted - all likely concessions in the move to production sheetmetal.
While Ford has yet to officially announce when it will unveil the 2015 F-150, all signs point to next year's Detroit Auto Show - one year after the Atlas shrugged off GM's new pickups.
Edmunds ranks the best used cars for 2013
Sun, 15 Sep 2013When people ask us what car we would recommend for them, it's usually not easy to answer. To make a useful recommendation we must consider which of the numerous vehicle segments fits their needs best, and then choose one of the many vehicles offered in each segment. For some people, new cars don't meet their expectations of value, because they lose so much of it the moment they are purchased and driven off the dealer lot. For them, there's always the used-car market, where great deals can be found, but cars' histories of reliability and maintenance records - and perhaps that Certified Pre-Owned warranty - become ever-important factors playing into purchase choice.
To help out, Edmunds has done us the favor of assembling a list of the best used vehicles money can buy, covering model years 2006-2011, according to what it considers the most important criteria when shopping for used autos: reliability, safety, value and availability. That means unreliable, unsafe, super-expensive or limited-edition models don't appear on the list, but instead cars from each segment that are more likely to satisfy the general population.
There are some real goodies on the list, including but not limited to vehicles such as the capable Honda Fit, the cultish Honda Accord coupe (which can be had with a 240-horsepower V6 and a six-speed manual transmission some years), and the powerful Chevrolet Corvette. While Edmunds' choice of the Volvo C70 for best used convertible baffled us at first (not that it's a bad car), it redeemed itself by stating that the Mazda MX-5 still is an unofficial top choice if you don't require more than two seats.
First 1K next-gen Mustangs to carry 2014 1/2 model year?
Thu, 18 Jul 2013A new report from Mustangs Daily, citing insider sources at Ford, tells us that the Blue Oval will produce 1,000 next-generation Mustangs with the model year designation of 2014 ½, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the storied marque. The commemorative half-year designation is a rumor that's been swirling in Mustang forums for quite some time now, and seems more plausible than ever with this most recent report. Certainly it's not far-fetched to believe that Ford will want to make a big deal of the golden anniversary for its most-loved model.
The story (compiled by Drew Phillips, who runs the aforementioned Mustang site when he's not directing the photography on these pages) goes on to say that the limited-run cars will be the first built on the new Mustang platform internally known as S550 (and spied testing in the attached gallery). Each car is said to carry a "special" VIN and build number, though no performance upgrades versus the 2015 cars to follow are in the works. A collector's dream then, rather than a weekend racer's.
