1967 Ford F100 Shop Truck, Hot Rod on 2040-cars
Las Cruces, New Mexico, United States
This is a really cool unmodified f100 short bed. It is the first year of this body style. Inline six cylinder with three on the tree. The previous owner had told me he had just rebuilt the engine before he put it in storage and judging by how good it runs I would have to tend to agree. It doesn't have the original carburetor but everything else is original under the hood. The paint was just recently redone in this really cool metallic blue that looks kinda grey at different angles. it is not perfect as it has little scratches and bumps, but you cant see until you get closer to inspect. The only rust spot we found was under the hood by the driver side hood hinge. it was cut out and a piece of sheet metal was welded in. Suspension has been gone thru and drives straight with no play in the steering wheel. the interior is AWESOME. It was upholstered with REAL ostrich leather and a suede mule. Even the door arm rests are ostrich. The truck was a project that I'm not currently able to finish. I still have to go thru the electrical. I haven't found the original turn signal lever that is missing. Also, the fans were working but stopped as did the dash light. The head lights and tail lights work great but i still need to line them up. If I didn't need the space and money I would definitely finish the last few things it need to be perfect. It has so much potential that would make it awesome. It is definitely not a museum show piece, but still looks amazing! How much fun would you have in this gas sipping work truck that could be used just for a stroll down main street on Sundays. Please call me with questions. I strongly urge you to come see it for yourself or send an ebay inspector. Call, Text, or Email Ivan 575-650-2078. the truck is in Las Cruces, NM and shipping is up to the buyer but i can work closely with you and the shippers. A NON refundable 500.00 deposit is due after 48 hours of the end of the auction. Car is sold as is where it is with no guarantees. Please call me and i can answer any question as truthfully and accurate as possible

Ford C-Max, Fusion hybrids subject of MPG lawsuit in California
Fri, 01 Mar 2013A California lawsuit over the fuel economy claims for the 2013 Ford C-Max was first reported back in December. Based on the numerous reports we've heard of disgruntled owners failing to get their car's EPA fuel economy ratings on the C-Max and 2013 Fusion Hybrid, we suspected there would be more to this story. The Detroit News is reporting that two California law firms are combining their lawsuits against Ford on this matter for "false and misleading" claims.
The article states that there are hundreds of C-Max and Fusion Hybrid owners who have joined the lawsuit, but the issue isn't limited to customers. In December, Consumer Reports extensively tested both the Fusion Hybrid and C-Max and found that both hybrids performed significantly worse than their EPA claims. This all comes just a few months after Hyundai and Kia took the unprecedented step of lowering the fuel economy ratings for all of their 2012 and 2013 model-year vehicles.
What an Atlas-based Ford F-150 might look like
Thu, 27 Jun 2013Just ahead of January's Detroit Auto Show, surprising rumors pegged Ford as revealing some sort of F-150 concept, perhaps as a hurried effort to deflate some of the buzz building around General Motors' new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra twins, which were also making their auto show debut. Those rumblings turned out to be true, as Ford rolled into the Motor City with its Atlas concept (inset, right), touting the truck's bold styling as a precursor to the next-generation F-Series.
The show truck featured all kinds of clever details, including active wheel shutters and a front air dam that raised and lowered to improve aerodynamics while preserving off-road ability. It also had a genuinely snarly face. And it's that pugnacious snout that may well be on its way to production. The good folks at TopSpeed have worked up the plausible-looking artist's rendering above by cross-referencing the Atlas concept with what little has been revealed from recent spy shots. The look is toned-down pretty dramatically from the concept truck, but its Atlas roots are clear, with a massive three-bar grille and bracket-shaped headlamps hiding a next-generation EcoBoost engine. In the rendering, the show truck's deeply contoured hood and roofline have been ditched and larger, more traditional side mirrors have been fitted - all likely concessions in the move to production sheetmetal.
While Ford has yet to officially announce when it will unveil the 2015 F-150, all signs point to next year's Detroit Auto Show - one year after the Atlas shrugged off GM's new pickups.
Top torque-to-weight ratios under $100k, $50k and $25k
Tue, 07 Oct 2014Horsepower may steal a lot of headlines, but the always-more-complex torque figure is often a critical one for both the workingman and the motoring playboy. The measure of rotational force represents the twist that can liquefy one's tires or haul one's horse trailer. Good stuff.
It follows then, that as with the horsepower-to-weight list that we assembled for you a few months ago, a list of cars that offer the most pound-feet with the fewest pounds to carry, is an interesting one to break down. Sure, there's a big difference in how the torque is applied from a turbocharged six-cylinder in a Swedish luxury sedan and a massive heavy-duty truck's turbo-diesel. But being the car/stat geeks that we are, we think it's kinda neat that those two vehicles rank near each other where torque and weight intersect.
As with the horsepower list, we've given you figures as pounds per every one pound-foot. Again broken down into broad price categories, we've got a mixed bag of 2014 and 2015 models here, too. Every effort has been made to select the most up-to-date prices and specs, and we've also to omitted some '14 cars that won't be re-upped after the ongoing yearly changeover.
