With regret I am listing my Bronco for sale only because I need a work truck.

     This is the next to the last year for the big Broncos. It has custom paint, cowl induction hood, flowmaster muffler, Griffin aluminum radiator, manual lock out hubs 5.0 fuel injected engine (good gas mileage and power), auto trans, cold ac, Sony cd player, Reese style hitch, trailer brake controller, chrome step bumper, billet grille, alloy wheels, 35" tires, 3" body lift (rubber extensions to stock body mounts that are easily removed), chrome tube steps, fold and tumble rear seat, front brakes recently replaced. My wife drives this Bronco often and I would not hesitate to take it anywhere.
     The good:) The truck starts every time and runs well. I have taken many trips and never had any problems. It runs cool in all traffic with the Griffin radiator (custom built for this truck). The 4wd works well. The lock out hubs give less wear on the drive line than full time 4wd. The lift is body only and easily removed. The power tailgate window works well, but I am missing the key for the rear and you must operate it from inside. You can replace this easily, I just use the inside switch. The suspension is stock and so it handles well. It looks even cooler in person than in the pics! If you don't want to be noticed, this is not the truck for you!
     The Bad:( I recently hit the driver side with my trailer and left a small dent over the tire, easily repaired, I haven't had time to take it. There are some small dings and scratches normal to a daily driver, but not many. There is some minor brake dust discoloring on the front wheels which may polish off. Recently, a few small rust bubbles have shown up on the bottom of the tailgate. This is the only rust I have found. There is a small bad place on the side of the drivers seat. The tires need replacing. This isn't a show truck, but it could easily be one!
     Vehicle is for sale locally and seller reserves the right to end auction early, so the more quickly the bids reach my reserve, the more likely you are to win the Bronco!
     One last thing, I am not a dealer, but my father is. I would like to let him do the title work. There will be no charge to the buyer for this.

A closer look at the 2015 Ford F-150

Thu, 16 Jan 2014

Despite having to share Ford's Detroit Auto Show stand with the hot new 2015 Mustang, the brand-new F-150 was arguably an even more important debut. Why? Ford moved some 700,000 examples of its F-Series truck in 2012, making it not only the best-selling pickup truck, but the top-selling vehicle in the US, by a long-shot.
The 2015 F-150 raises the bar for pickup trucks in a big way, with big-time use of aluminum. Because of this, roughly 700 pounds have been removed from the truck's overall weight, making it even more efficient than before, while still offering all of the capability that pickup owners expect. And with a host of engines under the hood, including a new 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6, the 2015 F-150 will surely offer something for everyone.
During the Detroit Auto Show, west coast editor Michael Harley took a closer look at the new F-150, talking to some of the truck's engineers. Have a look at the full video, below.

Recharge Wrap-up: Daimler spending big for fuel cells, Ford Go!Drive experiment advances

Fri, Mar 20 2015

Ford's Go!Drive experiment is entering its beta phase in London. The project, which is one of the automaker's global smart mobility experiments, uses a mobile app for on-demand carsharing of Ford Focus Electric and Ford Fiesta vehicles. The beta phase involves increasing the number of available vehicles from 20 to 50, and collecting new data from users. The program offers one-way rentals and guaranteed parking, with no membership fees and a cost of 26 cents per minute. Ford hopes to get 2,000 drivers involved in the program. Read more at Green Car Congress. Daimler will invest billions of dollars to upgrade the Mercedes-Benz Unterturkheim plant over the next few years. This year alone, it plans to spend $1.06 billion. The company expects cost savings "in the range of hundreds of millions of euros until 2020," while maintaining its workforce of 18,700 employees and adding 150 vocational training positions. The upgrades will allow the plant to become a center for building more efficient engines, hybrid powertrains and fuel cell systems. "Alternative drive systems are an important element of our future mobility," says Mercedes-Benz's Markus Schafer. "Their share of automotive production is set to steadily rise over the next few years, complementing our highly efficient engines within the portfolio. This is what we have laid the groundwork for today." Read more at Reuters, or in the press release below. The Department of Energy is providing $20 million in funding for the development of more efficient high speed industrial motors and drives. Ditching old motors and gearboxes for ones that use integrated power electronics could help decrease the energy consumption of the industrial sector, which currently uses more than 25 percent of the electricity generated in the US. The projects being funded will reduce losses and decrease the size of drive systems used in industries like petroleum refining and natural gas, which could affect the lifecycle efficiency of transportation fuels.

Former Cadillac boss Butler takes Ford tech job

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

When Don Butler made the surprising decision to leave his post as Cadillac's VP of global strategic development, it was a surprise. Citing a desire to "recalibrate, reassess my priorities" in that August announcement, it wasn't entirely clear where Butler - a virtual General Motors lifer after spending nearly 30 years with the company - would end up. Turns out he took a trip to Dearborn.
Butler has taken a position in the newly created position of Executive Director of Connected Vehicles and Services at Ford, where he'll be responsible for the Blue Oval's global connectivity strategy. "Not only does Don understand the connected car landscape, but probably just as important, he understands customer expectations," said Raj Nair, who, as Group Vice President of Global Product Development, is Butler's new boss. "Having a leader with technology experience both inside and outside the industry is a rare combination - we're excited to have Don join our team."
As Ford has received its fair share of flak for the sometimes recalcitrant MyFord Touch infotainment system and its Sync voice-controls, it appears that Butler has his work cut out for him.
