1965 Ford F100 Classic Antique Long Bed on 2040-cars
Westhampton Beach, New York, United States
This is my beautiful 1965 Ford F100 up for sale. Its got the 352ci V8 motor with a 3 speed shift on the column. Strong and reliable drivetrain. Desirable long bed. This is my daily driver, and I frequently cruise at 80 MPH on the highway with no issues whatsoever. She tracks solid and true, and the "Twin I Beam" suspension is buttery. Only 2 things don't work on this vehicle...the cigarette lighter, and the overdrive cable. The battery is 4 months old, spark plug wires are 2 years old, the tires have only 10k on them, and I also replaced the heater core, flow selector valve, and all the heater hoses when I got the truck last fall. The heater was inoperable when I bought it, but it blows super hot now after the replacement parts were put in. Like all old vechicles, she has a bit of a sequence when starting, but once you learn how to use the choke and gas pedal, she fires right up dead cold, even in the middle of winter. This truck has not given me one problem in the year that ive owned her...I've kept her clean, washed her after every bad weather drive, kept the fluids topped off (uses 1 Qt every 3 weeks)...and every day she gets me where I need to go without fail. (45mi work commute every day) Regretfully I have to sell to accomodate my growing family, but she will make the right person very happy. There are a few dings in the bed and here and there along the body, but they are very minor. This truck has no rust due to spending it's life on a farm down in NC. The Body is super clean and straight. I am the 3rd owner and I have all the maintenance records, as well as the original owners manual and window sticker. |

The big dune jump and the damage done
Mon, 20 May 2013The Silver Lake sand dunes see their fair share of well-built trophy trucks executing impressive jumps. Drivers build insane pieces of machinery for the express purpose of sailing through the air like mad men and women.
Mike Higgins is no stranger to the area. His heavily modified Ford trophy truck has gone flying through the sky on more than one occasion, but he recently bit off more than he could chew. After hitting a particularly lofty dune, Higgins went airborne for a ridiculous 180 feet before becoming intimately familiar with the finer points of gravity.
While Higgins nailed the jump, his landing fell short of wowing the judges. The impact very nearly broke his truck in two. Despite the mechanical mayhem, the driver walked away without a scratch, proving that occasionally miracles really do happen. You can check out the jump and the subsequent destruction below for yourself. Be warned: there's a fair bit of foul language.
Ford Fusion and Fusion Hybrid nab five-star ratings from NHTSA
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Ford's Fusion and Fusion Hybrid have both received the highest five-star overall safety rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The rating is a big upgrade for the Fusion, which was completely redesigned for 2013. The previous model fell one star short of the top rating, after scoring only three stars in the frontal crash test and four stars in the side crash test and rollover evaluations. The 2013 Fusion received four stars in side crash and rollover testing and a full five stars in the front crash test.
Test results for the 2013 Fusion and Fusion Hybrid were greatly improved at least in part due to Ford's Personal Safety System. The system utilizes smarter sensors to gather crash data and tailor the car's restraint systems to the occupants. Seatbelt usage and seat position are taken into account to ensure airbags deploy with less pressure for smaller drivers, more for larger drivers.
The 2013 Fusion twins also received the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Top Safety Pick+ designation. Read the official press release below.
