Location:
Payson, Arizona, United States

Up for bid is this nice 1978 Ford Bronco Ranger XLT. It has NO RUST, and no bondo or filler that we have found. AZ 4X4, has a 351 Cleveland with approx 20K miles on the motor. The odometer reads 74,221, however those miles are actually unknown, as it was owned prior to my dad. The vehicle runs excellent, fires right up with no problems and travels great on the highway. The rebuilt 351 Cleveland was installed in 2004, and has only had 20k miles put on since. As you can see, it does not get driven much and averages 2k miles per year. It is not a Salvage title, it is a class C title which means actual miles unknown. It could possibly be 74k original miles, but its not known. It does have new door panels, new carpet, and new visors. The four wheel drive works, and there are no issues with the running gear. It had new U-Joints installed front and rear in Oct 2012, along with a new rear drive shaft. In Jan of 2012 it had a new cap, rotor, points, and condensor installed, and in Feb 2011 it had new plugs and wires. This year its had a new battery box installed, new windshield washer container and pump. Chrome valve covers, Edlebrock intake, carb, and air cleaner. 4” lift with Bridgestone 33x12.50x15 tires at 75% tread. The vehicle has very minor leaks, occasionally you will see a drip from the tranny, or a small drip from the oil pan, but it does not have actual leaks that need fixed or that cause the vehicle to have to replace fluids constantly. It has MM locking hubs, Dual exhaust with flow masters (sounds awesome), the belts and hoses are all in great shape. It does not have a radio or a CD player in it, the dash has never been cut or altered to have stereo system installed (rare). There is no backseat in this Bronco. It does have a spare tire in the back, but obviously no spare tire carrier on the back, please see photos. It does have the original dash, which does have cracks in it, also note that it does have a split bench seat, with a tear in the seat on the drivers side. The rear window is electric, it does work, however it needs a new switch. Prior to listing the window was tested, it does work, again just needs a new switch. There are very minute small dings on the vehicle, however there is one actual dent on the drivers side door, very small dent, please see photots. Also the rear bumper does have a small dent as well. The bronco has small paints chips, especially behind each tire from rocks on the highway. On the front there is a chrome brush guard, all the lights work with the exception of the dome light, it just needs a new bulb. The side windows on the shell are both sliders, and there are various spare/extra interior parts that will come with the vehicle. On the rear bumper it is missing a license plate light. The wheels are aluminum, 10” wide, and in good shape. It does not have AC, even though it is AC compatible, and the heater works. Again this is not a salvage title, which is a hard thing to find on these older vehicles. It has NO RUST!!! AZ vehicle well taken care of and maintained!!! For someone looking to do a full restore this is the one!!! This Bronco is bad to the bone off road, I would highly recommend putting an experienced off road driver behind the wheel!!! The 351 Cleveland has an extreme amount of power!!!

2015 Ford F-150 configurator is ready to go to work
Thu, 25 Sep 2014Ford is inching towards the on-sale date for the eagerly anticipated, aluminum F-150 pickup. While we're preparing to drive the new truck (expect our take on it sooner rather than later), the best-seller has reached another, albeit more minor, milestone as its online configurator has officially been switched on.
We took to Ford's consumer website to mess about with it and see just how ridiculous of a truck we can build. Among the fun things we discovered were these two nuggets - the most expensive truck we could configure was not the top-end Platinum model, but instead the King Ranch, which rang up at $65,955. The other exciting discovery? The new truck would be available in a questionable shade called Blue Jeans (shown above with the optional contrasting Caribou paint). Yep, Blue Jeans.
You can head over to Ford's consumer page and build your very own aluminum F-150 now. Take a look.
Vile Gossip | Adventures in tire testing
Fri, Oct 13 2017Jean Jennings has been writing about cars for more than 30 years, after stints as a taxicab driver and as a mechanic in the Chrysler Proving Grounds Impact Lab. She was a staff writer at Car and Driver magazine, the first executive editor and former president and editor-in-chief of Automobile Magazine , the founder of the blog Jean Knows Cars and former automotive correspondent for Good Morning America . She has lifetime awards from both the Motor Press Guild and the New England Motor Press Association. This is her first column for Autoblog — look for more Vile Gossip in the future. I began writing at Car and Driver magazine back in its golden age in the 1970s, before I'd actually read it. I knew very little about cars. The only magazine I read religiously was Four Wheeler because I owned big trucks and liked to go off-roading with my Chrysler Proving Grounds friends. My vast 10 years of driving experience up to that point (high-speed dirt-road idiot, taxicab driver, Chrysler Proving Grounds test driver) had less bearing on my being hired at Car and Driver than the fact that the editor just wanted to rile up the all-male staff. He didn't need me for that. They were already in full dudgeon when I arrived. They'd just spent a chunk of time testing a stack of tires for their big tire-test issue, and the editor-in-chief was toe-to-toe with the technical editor over the rankings of the top 10 tires. It was loud, and it was angry. I had no idea that car magazines tested tires. Cab driving had led me to believe that airing up a tire and changing a flat was all you needed to know. I changed so many flats on that cab, I eventually wound up in front of a live audience on the " Oprah Winfrey Show" demonstrating my brilliance with a jack and a tire iron. My point, of course, is that tires are more controversial, and also more essential, than you'd think. My other point is that it's good to get worked up about the subject, but not quite so good to let yourself be seen, as I did, on my hands and knees with my ass up in the air on national TV. This is how I prefer to test a tire: First, pick a top brand. Then accept their invitation to try and beat the crap out of their tire. I chose Yokohama, celebrating its 100th anniversary this year. The big news for them was the GEOLANDER M/T G003!
