 Up for auction is a 2004 Ford Heavy Duty  Cargo Van.  The wife and I was looking for something decent to convert into a camper but due to age and health, I  really don't see that happening in the near future.  This was the best Van for the money that we could find.   The van is in excellent condition, no visible rust. It has a few small rock chips in the paint but nothing to really worry about.  Nothing dented or bent. Good straight body.   The drivers seat and passenger seat have one small wear spot on each, other that that the interior is like new.    Non-smoker, senior driven.  It has had great care, regular maintenance, resulting in the van being in great mechanical shape thru out. Starts great in sub-zero temputure's.Tires are new 16 inch B.F. Goodyear.   It has automatic overdrive, power steering, power brakes, cruise control,and air conditioning and a heater that will run you out. It has three rear seats, one wide bench and two jump seats seats accessible by two side doors. It has a Braum Millnenniun Electric lift at the rear. The lift is in excellent condition and work's very smooth thru it's cycle. It also has hold down slots and straps mounted in the floor for holding wheelchair bound lndividuals in place.  Nice safety feature. It has a row of overhead lights and an extra spotlight at the rear that comes on when the lift is in use for night time loading,  and has a flashing red light on the dash that is activated when the lift is in use and does not go out until the lift is secured and the rear doors are shut.  It also has the "High Top" option for ease of movement in the Van.  It is equipped with a 35 Gallon fuel tank for long trips.   According to the manufactures chart, it should get 14 M.P.G. in town, 18 M.P.G. on the road.   Not bad for a Heavy Built van.   I noticed the rear elec. lift rattles when driving over bumpy roads. I think electric tape at the point of rattle will cure this.   Other than that, the van is really tight. The van was senior driven, used to transport elderly wheelchair bound indivivual's.   With it's heavy duty chassis and cargo capacity it could be used as a work van for plumbers, electricians, carpet installers, mechanics e.t.c or simply use is for what it was built for, transporting the elderly.  Why pay $35000 or $40000 for a new one.  There is a lot of good miles left in this Van.
 I think I covered all base's here but if you have a question or two, feel free to call 1  309-235-0550     Ask for John,   If the wife answers, she could probable answer your question's. We are'nt trying to make a fortune here, just re-coup some money that we have in it. No warranty, we did'nt get one when we bought it,  don't get scared, there is nothing wrong with it.   you are getting a good van well worth the money.
Winning Bidder to pay a $500 Deposit by way of cash or postal money order, balance to be paid when Van is picked up unless other arraingments are made between buyer and seller.  Bid with condfidance , bid often and good luck on owning a really good van.

2015 Ford F-150 [w/videos]

Thu, 02 Oct 2014

To learn more about the all-new 2015 F-150 and get an early read on its potential hero-or-zero status, we flew to the heart of full-size pickup truck country, San Antonio, TX, to spend a day driving, towing and playing in the mud with an assortment of Ford's innovative new trucks.
First, a caveat - while we feel we have a reasonably good handle on the new F-150 after attending this first-drive event, we are far from ready to pass definitive judgment on the success of this radically new rig. Our time in the various models was lamentably limited and we felt rushed. With so much at stake and with so much to talk about and experience, we had zero alone time with the vehicle - there were Ford folks shadowing us at every moment.
And we still don't know everything there is to know about the trucks, as Ford is withholding some of its most crucial numbers, including curb weight data and anticipated EPA fuel economy figures. We don't even have a firm on-sale date. All of this information is typically disclosed - or at least officially estimated - at the time of a new vehicle's first drive. This limits the scope of the judgments we feel comfortable making based on our first encounter.

Muscle wins big at 2013 Amelia Island Concours as 1936 Duesenberg, 1968 Ford GT40 take top honors

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

The 18th-annual Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance took place this past weekend, and in one of the show's biggest years yet (bringing in more than 25,000 spectators and attracting more than 300 vehicles), two powerhouses ended up winning the judges' hearts. The top Concours d'Elegance award went to a 1936 Duesenberg SJN, while the Concours de Sport went to one of the celebrated marques, a 1968 Ford GT40.
Owned by Helen and Jack Nethercutt of Sylmar, CA, this flawless Duesy is described as "one of the most powerful open cars of the 1930s," and it displays design cues of the era like rolled fenders and a tapered rear end. The SJN's supercharged straight-eight allowed it to accelerate to 100 miles per hour in just 17 seconds - surely not a disappointing feat for its day.
On a much different level of performance and timelessness, this Gulf-livery GT40 from the Rocky Mountain Auto Collection is not outdone by the elegance of the big Duesenberg thanks to some well-documented racing history. This not only includes winning at LeMans in both 1968 and 1969 - Chassis No. 1075 also managed to win a total of six times in just 11 races.

How new car shortages may impact your buying experience

Wed, 04 Sep 2013

If you want further proof that the auto industry is bouncing back, look no further than the empty lots and forecourts of your local dealership. According to a story by The Wall Street Journal, continued high demand for mainstream cars is overtaxing automakers' ability to produce enough models. Several dealers interviewed for the story are reporting two-week supplies as opposed to the typical two-month allocations.
With sales expected to hit 1.4 million units when August numbers arrive shortly and incentive spending down to its lowest amount since January, these limited supplies are pushing prices even higher. For example, according to the WSJ, the average price of a Ford Fusion is up past $26,000. Unfortunately, it's difficult for manufacturers to increase production quickly. If it invests in its facilities, as many manufacturers have done, it risks wasting cash if growth suddenly slows. At the same time, the momentum gained over the past several years could be short lived if vehicle supplies continue to dwindle. "Manufacturers are in a precarious situation," notes Karl Brauer, a senior director at Kelley Blue Book.
Low interest rates and a wealth of desirable features are also allowing customers to purchase more expensive vehicles while justifying their higher overall price tags, a situation that is compounding supply shortages. Even now, during the annual end-of-summer clearance season, deals on new vehicles are remarkably difficult to come by. According to the report, the Toyota Corolla is in a self-inflicted state of shortage, as Toyota clears out inventory in anticipation of the new 2014 generation arriving in dealers. Ford's supplies should rebound as Fusion production comes on line at its Flat Rock, Michigan factory. The Chevrolet Impala, Honda Odyssey, Civic, and Accord and Subaru Forester are also facing shortages.
