All ("sales pitchs") aside, this is one bad a$$ Bronco! The only reason I am selling this car is because I have commitment issues when it comes to vehicles and I wanna start a new build. Truth be told; I'll likely end up buying this Bronco back in the future.

This 1969 early Ford Bronco is, in my opinion (and many), the best looking, fully modernized, Bronco available on the West Coast. ASC Broncos (Google them if you don't know) restored & built this Bronco so you know it was done by one of the best, most experienced (since '79) early Bronco builders on the West Coast. 

There has been a lot of talk about my Bronco actually being available for sale and I wanted to get this advert up to at least summarize some of the key things about it. I plan on updating this post with more pix and info (time permitting) until it has sold. 

This Bronco was built for SEMA and was chosen to be featured in Toyo Tires booth, this past year. This classic bronco is also the most "LIKE"d & searched Bronco on Instagram, ever! Search #projectbronco for photos dating back to the first week I purchased it. 

I have meticulously made sure this Bronco is one of the best ever made. You are not paying a premium because of the exposure this Bronco has received over the past couple years, you are paying what it is worth. I can count on two hands how many things on this vehicle have NOT been replaced, restored or modernized. 

This Bronco would run you $80-90k to be built by any of the top builders and would likely take 9-15 months to complete. I know, because I have first hand knowledge of every "high end" Bronco build done in California in the past 2 years and this is the BEST one with the exception of ICON's Broncos. Shoutout to Jonathan Ward, if you're reading this, your builds are the shit! Those, however, have a two year waiting list and will run you $150k+.

A lot of time and money have been invested into this Bronco in the last 2 years, it will be well worth the investment for the lucky buyer. This car is not a trailer queen, but sure as hell looks like one.

As I said, these are just SOME of the vehicles features. It would take me a week to list everything. If you've been looking at (high end) Broncos you will know upon seeing this build that this Bronco is like no other for all the right reasons. 

The ONLY issues with this Bronco, and I mean only, are that the transfer case & transmission leak a tiny bit. This is very common in early Broncos. I'v been told by several different mechanics that is not an issue to be worried about at all!

Verizon buys Telogis in connected vehicle market push

Wed, Jun 22 2016

(Note/disclaimer: We are owned by Verizon, by way of AOL. This gives us no inside track whatsoever when it comes to news.) With a lot of tech companies and automakers staking their claims in the connected car space, now there are signs that others are looking to move in, too. Today, telecoms giant Verizon announced that it is acquiring Telogis, a California-based company that develops cloud-based solutions for mobile workforces, and specifically telematics, compliance and navigation software used by Ford, Volvo, GM and other car companies, as well as Apple and AT&T. Financial terms of the deal have not been disclosed, although we'll try to find out. Considering that Verizon in 2015 reported full-year revenues of $131.6 billion, the price would have to be very high to be considered "material" and may not be made public for some time, if ever. Telogis in its time as a startup raised a substantial amount of money, just over $126 million in all, including $93 million in 2013, supposedly ahead of an IPO, all from Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers. Back in 2013 when KPCB made its investment (which was the first from a VC firm in the company), Telogis told TechCrunch it was profitable and forecasting revenues of $100 million annually for the year. It's not clear what size those revenues are now, but if it was on the same growth trajectory as before the funding, sales would be around $150 million annually, with profitability, at the moment. Other investors include some very notable strategics: the investment arm of General Motors, and Fontinalis Partners, which also invests in Lyft and was co-founded by Bill Ford, the executive chairman of the Ford Motor Company. Before the acquisition, Verizon actually had a business in fleet management and telematics; in fact, the two companies competed against each other for business from the trucking and other industries. Verizon Telematics, as the business is called, is active in 40 countries. But in a way, Verizon buying Telogis is a sign that the latter may have proved to be the more superior, and the one with the key customer deals.

Ford profits soar as problems mount

Mon, 19 Aug 2013

Ford is doing well. It can't make enough examples of its new Fusion, it can barely make enough of the aging F-150, it's getting good brand rankings, people like its turnaround story, it's selling oodles of product and its quarterly profit numbers end in the word "billion." As other high-flying examples have demonstrated over the past few years, though, big numbers can come with problems that aren't exactly small.
Automotive News has published a good "nutshell" report of Ford's progress and problems. The Dearborn automaker's optimistic "general label rule" determination of gas mileage for the C-Max Hybrid has led to lawsuits, hybrid software updates, a downward revision of C-Max fuel economy and millions in rebates. AN notes the C-Max was the "worst-scoring model in this year's J.D. Power Initial Quality Study," but Ford will probably be happy that it managed not to be mentioned further in the study's results after last year's mediocre showing. Its MyTouch and SYNC systems, the bugbears sabotaging Ford's J.D. Power results, have also led to lawsuits, software updates, more software updates and a center console rethink. On top of that, the 1.6-liter EcoBoost in the 2013 Ford Escape that Ford called a "hero" was soon catching fire for three different reasons. And let's not even get into the troubled launch of the Lincoln MKZ.
The Automotive News piece notes that industry observers have been surprised at Ford's stumbles because everything has been looking so good. Nevertheless, there is still the issue of those billions in profits - the company is doing plenty of things, plural, right. Ford says it is tackling its problems, hiring engineers and instituting new quality control processes as part of its effort to find solutions. The test will be to see if in a year from now we begin the discussion of these issues with "Remember when Ford...", or "Problems continue at The Blue Oval."

Ford's Galhotra succeeds Farley as head of Lincoln

Wed, 23 Jul 2014

Ford Motor Company is announcing a major personnel shakeup that could have a dramatic effect on the future of the Lincoln division. Kumar Galhotra (pictured above), currently vice president of engineering at Ford for all of its vehicles worldwide, is taking over as the president of the luxury brand on September 1, replacing Jim Farley. The automaker is also hiring a new head of advanced engineering.
Galhotra has a huge job ahead of him as the new boss of Lincoln worldwide, overseeing product development, marketing, sales and service. His task is to turn the luxury division into a world-class brand as quickly as possible, and he reports directly to Ford President and CEO Mark Fields.
"These changes underscore our commitment to build on the success of our One Ford plan by accelerating our pace of progress. They also make clear we are serious about Lincoln as a world-class luxury brand and that product excellence and innovation are what will deliver growth and define our entire company going forward," said Fields in the company's announcement.
