 You are looking at a 1996 ford F150 4X4. I"ve owned it for 7 years. This is a hard to find regular cab short bed.  It is also a Northwoods limited edition,(#424 of2500).  It has a great running 5.0V8 and automatic transmission.  4X4 is manual shift with lockouts.  It has 209XXX miles but you wouldn't guess it by how it runs and drives.  Steering is tight, transmission is tight and shifts great,(I've replaced transmission fluid and filter several times).  I change oil every 3000 and usually have to top it off once between so oil consumption is minimal.  4X4 works great.  Air conditioning is ice cold. Power windows and locks work great.  It is starting to rust but not as bad as most older f150's in this area.  Tires are goodyear wranglers with less than 5000 miles on them.  in the last 3-4 years I've replaced fuel tank, fuel pump, brakes, new uppper and lower ball joints, ignition module, EGR valve and starter.   I also put new spring hangers and shackles in it,(ford had problems with them in these years).  I added one extra leaf spring on each side in the rear so it's sprung a bit heavier than other half tons.  I used it to pull a tow behind stump grinder so there are some scratches from brushing against hedges and stuff like that to get to stumps.  I had decals on the door that I removed.  It turns incredibly tight and is nice to drive.  It's a good reliable truck but it is used so don't expect a warrenty or act surprised to see some rust or scratches.   For sale locally as well so reserving the right to end auction. Local pickup, no reserve Thanks for looking.  cashiers  check or cash when you pick it up,(prefer cash).

2015 Ford Mustang potentially 'leaked' by Car and Driver

Mon, 28 Oct 2013

Few upcoming debuts have been as eagerly anticipated as the all-new Ford Mustang that's expected to debut shortly as the Mustang's 50th anniversary year approaches. Well, Car and Driver magazine would have us wait no longer as it claims to be leaking Ford's new global pony car early.
Of course what you're looking at is just as likely to be a composite rendering based on what C/D projects the new Mustang to look like, but to our eyes it looks spot on. Combining design traits from the Evos Concept with classic Mustang signatures and Ford's Aston-inspired grille treatment, C/D's images - including a complete 360-degree digital navigator - show a Mustang not only for the modern era, but also for global distribution, taking a quintessentially American car to markets its predecessors were never designed for.
Those global considerations are expected to spell the demise of the outgoing Mustang's holdout live rear axle in favor of an independent suspension, and a slight constricting of the exterior dimensions. And thanks to a separate leak, coming from a digital survey, we have apparent confirmation of what will power the new pony car. While the existing 3.7-liter V6 and 5.0-liter V8 engines will apparently carry over with only slight adjustments in output, the survey confirms a new 2.4-liter turbo four will be positioned in between them, offering slightly more power than the V6 but markedly improved fuel economy for a manageable $560 premium over base.

Ford shares falling on news of lower-than-expected profits next year

Wed, 18 Dec 2013

Ford has released projections for its 2013 profits, along with predictions of its 2014 earnings, and the news has forced the company's stock to stumble, falling over seven percent as of this writing. The Blue Oval is expecting earnings of $8.34 billion for 2013, although the bulk of that is coming largely from its North American operations, as troubles abroad continue to take a toll.
Calling 2013 an "outstanding" year, Ford expects its revenue to be up about 10 percent, thanks to gains in market share everywhere but Europe. But it's 2014 predictions that are causing stock prices to fall, as the Dearborn-based manufacturer expects pre-tax profits to fall to $7 to $8 billion, because of troubles in both Europe and South America, according to a report from Reuters. This is despite an expansion plan that will see it open an additional factory in the southern hemisphere, as well as two plants in China, all in a bid to launch 23 new or refreshed products next year.
The issues in South America aren't so much related to a fall in sales - Ford expects improved profits in Brazil and Argentina - but because of currency devaluations in Venezuela that are projected to cost it around $350 million. While that would still allow it to break even with 2013, Ford cites continued economic risks that could push losses even higher.

Ford Fusion production scaled back just 3 months after it was accelerated

Mon, 02 Dec 2013

Three months after kicking off production of the Ford Fusion at its Flat Rock, MI factory, Ford Motor Company is taking steps to trim output in the face of heavily discounted competition from Toyota and a growing supply of vehicles.
The addition of Fusion production in Flat Rock - which also builds the Mustang - was meant to be what pushed the handsome mid-sizer past its arch-nemesis, the Toyota Camry. An extra facility building Fusions was also meant to curb the growing demand for Ford's highly profitable sedan.
But with word that Flat Rock would take "approximately" one extra week off for the holidays combined with an 88-day supply of Fusions - reportedly due in no small part to what Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas called "aggressive discounting of the Camry" - some analysts are now beginning to wonder if Ford may have overextended itself by adding a second Fusion facility to the mix.
