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.

Ford taken to task by gov't for Chicken Tax end-around
Mon, 23 Sep 2013Ford is in a bit of a pickle for importing and selling Turkey-built Transit Connect cargo vans as passenger vehicles in the US, then converting them to commercial-vehicle specification stateside in an effort to bypass a 25-percent tax imposed on vehicles imported for commercial use. Automakers are required to pay a 2.5-percent tax on imported passenger vehicles.
The Blue Oval got into trouble for this in a January ruling in which U.S. Customs and Border Protection officials asked Ford to stop the practice of importing the Transit Connect vehicles with passenger seats, then removing and shredding them. Now Automotive News reports that Ford is appealing the ruling. The 25-percent "Chicken Tax," as the tariff is often called, is 50 years old and was enacted as a response to a German tariff on chickens. Like Ford, Chrysler bypasses the higher tariff, but it does so in a different manner. It partially disassembles Sprinter cargo vans before shipping them to the US, then rebuilds them at a plant in South Carolina.
But the ruling against Ford's strategy states that it "serves no manufacturing or commercial purpose" and is there to "manipulate the tariff schedule," Automotive News reports. As Ford's appeal goes through, it is importing the Transit Connect and paying the higher tax, hoping for a favorable outcome and planning to build the next-generation Transit Connect, which it plans to launch before the end of the year, in Spain.
2016 Ford F-150 gets Sync 3, appearance packs
Wed, Jun 24 2015After the groundbreaking move to aluminum for the bodywork of the 2015 Ford F-150, it's easy to understand Ford keeping the updates light for the 2016 model. However, while there are no drastic changes for the upcoming model year, customers will benefit from a few tiny tweaks. Among the biggest improvement to the truck's usability is the move to the Blue Oval's latest Sync 3 infotainment system to replace Sync with MyFord Touch. Now running on Blackberry's QNX, the software claims to be faster and more intuitive. It also means a redesigned screen layout. As a pickup, the F-150 is meant to work, and Ford's trying to make that a little easier with the newly available Pro Trailer Backup Assist. When activated, drivers turn a knob in the direction they want the trailer to go. From there, the truck makes the necessary steering changes and limits the speed. Finally, for buyers wanting some extra style, Ford is bringing some updates to the exterior. Shadow Black and Lithium Gray are new colors that replace Tuxedo Black and Guard Metallic, respectively. There are also now brawny looking Special Edition Appearance Packages for the XLT and Lariat (pictured above) that include 20-inch anodized aluminum wheels, black running boards, smoked headlights, and side graphics. Both have a dark grille but with red accents on the Lariat and black mesh on the XLT. Inside, the seats feature Alcantara inserts with red bolsters, and crimson accent stitching is throughout the cabin. Finally, there is also the previously announced compressed natural gas prep pack. Feel free to read all about the new 2016 F-150 in the press release below. 2016 F-150 CONTINUES TO INNOVATE WITH AVAILABLE PRO TRAILER BACKUP ASSIST, ALTERNATIVE FUEL CAPABILITY AND SYNC 3 Pro Trailer Backup Assist helps make backing up a trailer as easy as turning a knob New Special Edition Appearance Packages available on XLT and Lariat with unique wheels, graphics and finishes Compressed Natural Gas/Propane gaseous fuel prep package available for 5.0-liter V8-equipped F-150s, helping reduce operating costs and tailpipe CO2 emissions The 2016 Ford F-150, part of Ford F-Series, America's best-selling truck for 38 years, continues to innovate with the addition of breakthrough towing technology, new Special Edition Appearance Packages, SYNC 3 and alternative fuel capability. All-new Pro Trailer Backup Assist makes it easier for drivers of all skill levels to back a trailer up to launch a boat or park in a driveway.
Ford tops mid-year ranking of brands in the US
Thu, 18 Jul 2013YouGov's mid-year Brand Index rankings of America's best perceived brands has been released, and Ford has found its way to the top. The Dearborn, Michigan based manufacturer beat out online shopping giant Amazon, The History Channel, and home improvement superstore Lowe's, to take the top spot.
Ford jumped from sixth overall in 2012 to first for 2013, but those that have been watching these rankings shouldn't be hugely surprised. Ford was rated the best perceived automotive manufacturer by the same organization last year. The Blue Oval's success on the overall brand rankings is made all the more impressive by the complete lack of other automakers on the list.
YouGov (that is, survey respondents) cited Ford's first quarter of 2013 business, which saw an increase in market share and the best earnings recorded in over 10 years. Successfully launching the Focus and Fusion (pictured) and keeping them fresh in the minds of consumers has also contributed to Ford's best overall score.
