My family and I have had this vehicle in our possession for over 12 years. Most of that time we kept it in our barn at the house, and used to around the house and to run to town and back every now and then. Keep in mind the vehicle was still stock at that point, with the original 302 and manual 3-speed transmission. It was only 4 years ago that we decided to have it restored. Over the next 3 years our Bronco stayed at a custom vehicle shop in our hometown, where it was completely tore down to the frame, painted, and every old and worn out part was replaced, including the engine and the transmission. We decided to go with the beefed up hot-rod style, so that's where the Ford 347 Stoker engine came from. Complete with fuel injection and a dual air intake, this combination spits out a hefty 430 horsepower and 400lb of torque. Complementing this hog of an engine is a Magnaflow exhaust system, that makes it very obvious to anyone around when you pull out on the highway. But enough about just what's under the hood, this Bronco is decked out from head to toe. Starting at the front, we have a custom front bumper made for the 8000lb winch, controller included. The front axle is a Dana 40 complete with air-lockers, and in the back there is a Ford 9" rear end, also with air-lockers. The transmission is a Ford C6 automatic 3-speed which delivers even more low end torque. Transferring all this power is an Atlas Breaker transfer case, which enables 2-high, 2-low, 4-high, and 4-low; Traction for any occasion. In the area of traction we decided to give this beast a lot of it, and we accomplished just that with the 33" by 13.5" Dick Cepek Mud Country mud terrain tires. Around the all steel body the vehicle has all of its original decals, including the chrome 302 decal on both of the front fenders. Chrome running boards make the jump into the vehicle a little easier. All of this and we haven't even gotten to the interior. We replaced the original seats with two Corbeau racing seats of front, and a Corbeau bench in the back, all black leather. Protecting whoever is inside is a roll cage, just in case. Attached to the top of this roll cage is a weather proof, powder coated speaker box containing four 6'' by 9'' Marlin speakers, and behind the back bench seat is another speaker box with two 10'' Marlin subwoofers for the base notes. This can be accessed by a line-in cord running from the back speaker box and comfortably reaches the drivers seat. The entire interior floor is rhino-lined black. I mentioned earlier that there is a few imperfections, like most restored vehicles. There are few spots on the Bronco where the paint has either chipped or rubbed away. The chip on of the front grill and is smaller in size than the average pinkie finger nail. On the back left side of the vehicle the back bumper rubs the body and has rubbed a small area of paint away. And at the very bottom of the body under the driver side door there is a small amount of rust forming, but again it's virtually not visible when standing right next to the Bronco. Lastly there is a very slow transmission fluid leak, normally a drop every few hours. For a leak this slow I don't personally feel the need to drop the transmission and check the seal, but simply add a little fluid every now and then. Please forgive the dustiness of the interior, I happen to live on a dirt road and it is just too much to keep clean from day to day. I will gladly have the entire vehicle detailed upon purchase. In simple words this is a good solid and dependable truck, very collectible, it has tons of power and sounds great. If at all interested I still have the original 302 engine and manual 3-speed transmission that we took out and I am willing to sell those as well. You can contact me by email at tlwalkerlaw@aol.com, and my cell number is 1-713-829-5070. If you would like to wait till this add ends and make a deal not involving ebay that would be fine. Payment will have to be made in cash upon delivery or pick up, or wire transfer will also be accepted. I will be able to deliver within a 500 mile radius of Jasper, Texas.

Ram 1500 bests new F-150 in MT pickup shootout
Tue, Nov 25 2014Ford's 2015 Ford F-150 is a technological tour-de-force, what with its aluminum-intensive construction and its powerful and efficient new 2.7-liter EcoBoost engine option. But now that it's hit the market, it's time to get down to brass tacks and find out how just the latest F-150 actually stands up to its rivals in the hyper-competitive fullsize segment. Motor Trend is among the first to round up the Ford (in Lariat 2.7-liter 4X4 guise here) and put it up against the Ram 1500 Outdoorsman EcoDiesel 4x4 and 5.3-liter-equipped Silverado 1500 LTZ Z71 to find out how Dearborn's new-think truck measures up. The test put the trio through over 1,000 miles of tough driving in California and Arizona in a variety of conditions from just cruising around unladen to hauling a trailer. MT found all three trucks to be competent, but the most praise got heaped on the Ram and the Ford, with the Chevrolet falling a step behind its competitors in many tests. Among the Ford's most-liked features was its 2.7-liter, twin-turbo V6 that helped make the F-150 easily the quickest of the group, with some editors saying the engine felt about the same whether driving around with cargo in the bed or not. There was some minor turbo lag during acceleration while trailering, but that issue affected the Ram, too. The Ram's powertrain was lauded, as well. The EcoDiesel was torquey around town, and the 1500's combination of an eight-speed automatic and air suspension was judged to be the best of the lot. It was the most difficult to get into the bed, though. The Ram also won the fuel economy award by netting 20-miles-per-gallon city and 28-mpg highway in the test to beat its Environmental Protection Agency ratings of 19/27. The Ford's EcoBoost managed 17/22, one mpg off each from the EPA numbers, and using a lot of throttle really depleted its efficiency. As MT notes, however, it would take time for the diesel's mileage savings to pay off at the pump for these two trucks. In the end, the Ram just barely eked out the win, with the title partially earned because of "the Ford's unknown maintenance and aluminum repair costs," according to MT.

New Ford dedicated hybrid due in 2018, will it fare better than C-Max?
Fri, Aug 22 2014Everyone likes to go after the champ. When it comes to fuel economy, that means taking on the Prius, which is something that automakers not named Toyota have been trying to do for years. Just because no one has been able to beat the Prius for fuel economy numbers isn't stopping them from trying. Hyundai was just caught with a potential Prius-fighter and now we have news that Ford is joining the party. Well, is going to join again. The last time Ford said it was going to challenge the Prius, it didn't go quite as planned. The C-Max hybrid was heavily hyped as a Prius-beater and was originally rated at 47 miles per gallon. Of course, it later needed to be recalculated to just 40 mpg and sales tanked. So, it's back to the Blue Oval drawing board, according to Automotive News, which is reporting that Ford is readying a brand new gas-electric hybrid due in 2018 as a 2019 model year vehicle. A plug-in version is in the works, too, and the car will reportedly share a platform with the upcoming next-gen Focus and Escape models. About those C-Max sales. They have not been stellar for the C-Max hybrid, which started strong but suffered when the reality of the lower fuel economy was realized. So far in 2014 (through the end of July), Ford has sold 11,685 gas-electric models and another 4,759 plug-in Energi versions. The trend for the standard C-Max is downward (from 20,125 during the same time frame in 2013) and upward for the plug-in version (2,915 in the first seven months of 2013).
2014 Ford Fusion order guide reveals new base Hybrid model, equipment changes
Tue, 23 Apr 2013We've gotten our grubby little digits on the dealer order guide for the as-yet-unreleased 2014 Ford Fusion thanks to an anonymous tipster, and while there isn't much that's unexpected, there are some meaningful equipment changes to report after the rakish sedan's first year on the market.
Mechanically, the big news is, of course, the recently confirmed availability of the 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder paired with a six-speed automatic. The powertrain replaces the 1.6-liter automatic setup of 2013, though if you want a manual transmission, you'll still get the extra .1-liter of displacement.
On the equipment front, there are newly available rear inflatable seatbelts - as seen previously on the Explorer - along with a new heated steering wheel and cooled seat option on Titanium and Titanium Hybrid models (the latter two options will be late availability).
