PLEASE READ THIS REVISION ABOUT THE VANS ODOMETER AND MILEAGE.... I have been getting a lot of questions about the vans actual mileage due to the fact that the odometer /speedometer do not work..I want to make this very clear so their are no misunderstandings with whoever may bid on this ...The actual mileage of the van is believed to be around 140,000 miles maybe as much as 150,000 miles tops..The second owner purchased the van in 1999..15 years ago.The speedometer was non functioning when he bought it.The mileage on the odometer was around 133,000 miles..He rarely drove the van..he thinks he put maybe 15,000 miles on it.. no more ,and probably less..He said the speedo and odometer would work sporatically ..I got the van from him several months ago for payment of a debt..When I got the van the odometer read 133,000 and change the odometer is not dependable the tenth indicator at times runs backwards.the 3rd number from the right goes up and down..the furthest number on the left has shown a 6 a 3 and a 1 since I have been driving it over the last few months..I am 100% coinfident that the van has somewhere between 139,000 to 149,000 miles on it.original miles..I got a new cable to fix the problem ,but got discouraged when I found out the amount of work involved to replace it...If you drove the van and looked at the suspension,rubber,brake pedal wear,the tightness of the entire rig you would know that this is all the truth...I do not wish to have any dissatisfied bidders..This is an older but very well maintained solid dependable 4 wheel drive rig..

Shelby boosts production of 575-hp Raptor on early demand
Mon, 08 Apr 2013Shelby American unveiled its all-new Shelby Raptor at the New York Auto Show last month, saying that it would build just 100 examples of its off-road bad boy, a pickup priced at $17,995 over the cost of the donor Ford F-150 SVT Raptor. But the Las Vegas outfit apparently underestimated just how popular the supercharged 575-horsepower 4x4 would actually be.
Strong early demand reportedly has Shelby singing a whole new tune, as the company is now saying it will build upwards of 500 units annually. While the increased production will likely make for at least 400 more happy owners, those who were on the original short list - possibly speculating on future values - might not be grinning as much. Needless to say, the company has assured everyone that each and every one of the modified Raptors will still be listed in the official Shelby registry.
Keep in mind that Ford isn't sitting idle on its trophy-truck-for-the-street, either. The company will reveal its own 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition this month.
The fascinating forgotten civil defense history of Mister Softee trucks
Mon, 26 Aug 2013Hemmings came across an interesting article from the Throwin' Wrenches blog about the intersection of ice cream, cars and civic duty in America's late 1950s. In particular, it focuses on the Mister Softee trucks, which criss-crossed neighborhoods of the eastern US serving ice cream. Looking past the ultra-durable vehicles used - heavy-duty Ford-based chassis, for what it's worth - the article delves into some deeper national-security territory.
See, Mister Softee truck owners were voluntary members of the Civil Defense, thanks to all the useful stuff (potable water, generators, freezers and fridges) that the machines carried with them for serving ice cream. Click over to Throwin' Wrenches for the full run down of how Mister Softee would have stepped in to help fight if the Cold War ever turned a little hotter.
Ford 1.0L EcoBoost 3-Cylinder: Autoblog Technology of the Year award finalist
Wed, 19 Nov 2014As the old saying goes, "There's no replacement for displacement." But these days, many automakers are launching powerful, downsized engines that offer similar or better power output than their predecessors, all while offering improvements in fuel economy and emissions. These days, we're seeing automakers replacing eight-cylinder engines with turbocharged sixes, and the naturally aspirated six-cylinder motors are being phased out in favor of potent turbo fours. But Ford has gone even smaller, offering a three-cylinder, turbocharged engine with one single liter of displacement.
Sure, three-cylinder engines aren't anything new - they've been offered around the globe for ages. But Ford's EcoBoost 1.0L powerplant is perhaps the best application the Autoblog team has tested. Gone are the triple-cylinder complaints of yore - this engine doesn't sound anemic or buzzy, and there's healthy power output on tap. In fact, compared to the 1.6-liter inline-four that Ford also offers in the Fiesta, the 1.0-liter is more powerful, while boasting an impressive 45 miles per gallon on the highway.
This engine has already received numerous accolades, including winning the International Engine of the Year award in 2012, 2013 and 2014. The 1.0L EcoBoost will be available in the refreshed 2015 Ford Focus here in the US.
