  hi and thnx ~!~ I know diesels are supposed to run forever, but at 242k, this Van runs and drives much better than you would expect. it was company owned and properly serviced, as normal fleet style, to reduce risk and add life and reliability; add to that Ford's tough as nails approach with the V8 diesel and the iron build of the great E350 line.

  motor starts with a gentle flick of the key and idles correctly. no gauge or dash lights are on. tranny snicks into drive and the van just pulls right along. the ride is firm but exactly to be expected. steers straight, rides well and is reasonably comfy. I have had these power-strokes before in the truck line, and it is just very nice to see, like this one here, a van that does not clatter like mad and no smoke at startup ~!~ (or at all... )

 

  the rear bins are pro grade and can handle all your organizing needs. the floor has been covered with protective mats, and although dusty, they did a good job. all dash and features seem to work fine. front drivers seat has some wear tears, the rest you can see... please see all photos carefully. there are signs of previous repairs along the van's bottom edge, please see the black paint line along the body; it is hiding some repaired rust and corrosion and starting to age. also, please note how clean, dry and solid are the frame, floors, lines and all undercarriage. overall very clean front to rear.

 

  the E350 is at my mechanic's shop now and I just authorized $900 in repairs. I do not want a buyer to have problems or driving home issues, so... he found that the power steering pump had a front seal leak, so that gets replaced. he recommended some new brake lines, OK. the alternator was putting out about 9 volts, so he will install a new one. I will have repairs done and receipts to back it up. I have no problem fixing things if it makes sense, I just was hoping to get off a little easier. 

 

  feel please feel free to bid and buy, truck runs and looks great from most any angle. please see all photos, I took every good and bad shot I could. feel free to email or call, or just come by and take a drive. vehicle is as shown and at my home.  j. bettes, 805 Clinton ave, Bridgeport, CT 06604 >>

Ford's Mulally makes shortlist for Microsoft CEO

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

Ford CEO Alan Mulally has made the short list to take over tech giant Microsoft, lending further credence to rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would ditch Dearborn and move to Redmond.
The report comes from Reuters, which claims that alongside Mulally, former Nokia CEO Stephen Elop and three candidates from within Microsoft are on the short list to succeed Steve Ballmer at the company's helm, although previous reports claim the Ford exec is the number one candidate. Mulally is currently working without a contract, although Bill Ford seems to believe that he isn't likely to depart. Despite this belief, Ford was quoted just last month talking about the depth of talent on the Blue Oval's executive team.
"There is no change from what we announced last November. Alan remains fully focused on continuing to make progress on our One Ford plan. We do not engage in speculation," said Ford spokesman Jay Cooney.

Ford talking unibody Ranger replacement

Mon, 18 Feb 2013

Now here's some welcome news. Car and Driver reports Ford is seriously mulling a replacement for the recently deceased Ranger, but the successor to the compact pickup's throne may not look anything like what we've seen from the nameplate in the past.
While speaking at the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, Doug Scott, marketing manager for Ford Trucks, said there's still a market for a smaller pickup, but that buyers expect to see a larger differentiation between the smaller utility vehicles and their full size counterparts in price, capability and fuel economy.
According to Scott, that means a vehicle with a payload capacity of around 1,000 pounds paired with a towing capacity of 3,000 pounds and "a dramatic reduction in fuel consumption." But the biggest piece of that recipe is the price tag, and Scott says to keep the MSRP far enough away from the already cheap F-150, the answer could come in the form of a unibody design. Scott says target customers in this market don't care whether the truck has a traditional frame or not, so long as it's tough enough to do the job and has the capability they need.

Ford announces two recalls, 442k vehicles affected in North America

Wed, May 27 2015

Ford is announcing two recalls for North American that affect a total of 442,300 vehicles and multiple model lines. The larger campaign covers the possibility of electric power steering systems that can fail in the 2011-2013 Ford Flex, Taurus, Lincoln MKS, and MKT; the 2011-2012 Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ; and the 2011 Mercury Milan. This recall affects 422,814 vehicles in North America, including 393,622 in the United States, 25,195 in Canada, and 3,997 in Mexico. According to the company, an intermittent electrical connection can cause the power steering to cut out, although manual steering would still work. Ford knows of four minor accidents from this issue, but there are no injuries. Depending on trouble codes from the vehicle, dealers will either upgrade software for the power steering control module or replace the steering gear. The second recall covers 19,486 examples of the 2015 Ford Mustang with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost turbocharged four-cylinder engine with a production date between February 14, 2014, and February 10, 2015 at the Flat Rock Assembly Plant. Specifically, there are 19,095 of these in the US and 391 in Canada. These pony cars can show elevated underbody temperatures, which can lead to degradation of the fuel tank, fuel vapor lines, and parking brake cable seals. There are no reports of accidents, injuries or fires from this, though. To fix things, dealers will install a better-insulated fuel tank shield, add thermal patches around the tank and parking brake cable, and put thermal wraps around the fuel vapor lines. You can read the specific build dates and locations for the models affected by the power steering issue in Ford's press release below the video.
