I have decided to sell my 69 Ford F-100 Ranger 2x4 shorty. I have always loved old Ford pick-ups and bought this one 1 1/2 years ago at the F-100 Nationals in TN. I am part owner of an auto restoration shop in Cookeville, TN. and was there with a 67 Ranger long bed that we entered with that we had completed in time for the show. That truck took first place in class and had a 7 page magazine article written about it. Yes I know Ford trucks. This one was for sale by an elderly gentleman that loved it and had it for many years. I bought it because it is a cool 99% rust free Ford truck and I know what it would cost to put one in this condition if there were professional restoration services needed to be done. I am too busy with other businesses to find time to go out end enjoy this truck and have put minimal mileage on it since I have owned it.  It has been in temperature control storage. Since I have owned truck it has always had 93 Octane Non-ethanol fuel.

The motor is a 1972 390 service block (heavy duty) ribbed FE with 4 Holley 4 barrel. I have all the receipts when the motor was built and the older gentleman used mostly NOS Ford High performance parts including cam. This truck runs awesome, sounds great and is powerful. I don't know how many miles are on the motor but the odometer says 004011 for the truck. I would suspect it is at 104012. I have decoded the door tag and this truck came with 360 2-V auto and 3.25 :1 rear gears. The C-6 that is in it shifts perfect and the drive train is solid. The truck was built in Canada and came Wimbledon White. The ex-owner said he two toned it.  The interior is original to the truck with Zero tears, cuts or wear spots on seat. The only bad is someone put speakers in the lower doors.

The A/C is cold, cold and appears to be dealer installed. The tire have very low miles put on them and the wheel combo fits and grows on you. I took this to a car show and drag race a month ago and every where it went in town or down the interstate there were many thumbs up. This is a beautiful stock truck for the weekend driver and with minor little things it could be a knock out cruiser.

This F-100 is for sale locally (not a inexpensive truck but very affordable) and I reserve all right to shut auction down any time. This truck is very fairly priced and no disappointments expected and is exactly has described. There is money owed against it and all transaction will go through local bank holding the note.

A couple pictures are blurry but I put them here because I am not close enough to drive over to it and retake. There are pic's of cab mounts and underneath, and the oil pressure gauge shows high oil pressure. The under shots are to show that this truck is the 99% rust free I mentioned above. One pic is Australian Shepard was worried she might be left and would not get out.  If you win and for any reason you are dissatisfied I will refund all monies. Any questions or comments can be directed to ebay email and will be answered in a reasonable amount of time. You can also call 931-881-8351 with any questions.

2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost to hit 45 mpg for $16,445*

Mon, 28 Oct 2013

When Ford first announced its plan to put the 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine under the hood of the 2014 Fiesta, it promised hybrid-like fuel economy without a hybrid-like premium. We're still waiting for official specs on this engine, but thanks to the EPA's fueleconomy.gov website and Ford's retail site, we now know what customers can expect in terms of both fuel economy and price.
All along, Ford has said that it expects the 1.0-liter EcoBoost to get more than 40 miles per gallon on the highway, and now the EPA backs this up with official ratings of 32 mpg in the city and 45 mpg on the highway. These numbers are an increase of two mpg city and four mpg hwy compared to the current fuel-sipping Fiesta (the 1.6 SFE), and it also beats other three-cylinder cars for highway mileage like the 2014 Mitsubishi Mirage (44 mpg highway) and 2014 Smart Fortwo (38 mpg highway); the Fiesta 1.0 EcoBoost is lower than both three-pot rivals, though, in city fuel economy with the Mitsubishi getting 37 mpg city and the Smart rated at 34 mpg city. This model handily beats high-volume small cars like the Honda Fit, Toyota Yaris and Chevy Spark in both city and highway numbers.
As for pricing, the 1.0-liter EcoBoost is offered on both the sedan and hatchback as a $995 option called the SE Manual EcoBoost package, which is aptly named since it's only offered on SE trim-level Fiestas equipped with a manual transmission. Along with the engine, the package also comes with 15-inch steel wheels, regenerative brakes and a decklid spoiler on the sedan. This means the four-door Fiesta 1.0 EcoBoost will start at $16,445*, or $17,045* for the hatchback (*not including $795 for destination).

TX officer allegedly lets 140-mph street racer go with a warning [w/poll]

Tue, 26 Aug 2014

Being pulled over by the police is one of the most nerve-racking situations that a driver can go through, and it's even worse when you know that the officer has you dead to rights for speeding well over the posted limit. In this video, the driver of a heavily modified Ford Mustang with a claimed 966 horsepower at the rear wheels could have easily lost his ride for doing triple-digit speeds and street racing, but a friendly Texas police officer appears to send him on his way with a simple warning.
What's more, the driver in question wasn't just speeding - his Mustang was the camera car for a bunch of rolling street races in the wee hours of the morning on a Texas highway. The driver was more than willing to mix it up in the action, too. Eventually the cops catch on and pick the 'Stang to pull over, but not before the Ford owner runs a claimed 140 mph. With only audio to go on after the car is pulled over, the police officer seems incredibly nonchalant about catching someone who was so brazenly breaking the law. Incredibly, the patrolman actually tells the driver that he's seen everyone racing tonight but ignored them. With traffic picking up, the cop says that it's time to "cut it out" and go home for the night. As far as this video shows, that was the end of it.
Warning: There is explicit, not-safe-for-work language in the video below.

Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
