Air conditioning works but needs recharged with new refrigerant and seal kit."

For sale is a 1996 Ford F150 Standard Cab short wheelbase truck. The engine is the Cleveland built 4.9L 6 cyl engine. I have replaced the fuel filter  catalytic converter and O2 sensors. This truck will pass any E-check. This truck has no body rust and has a replacement bed and front fenders that were painted in a dark blue base coat with a clear coat. Truck looks good and has 17" chrome expedition wheels and tires with good tread. Engine runs great, with good oil pressure, no leaks anywhere and transmission shifts good in all gears. Has bed liner and new tailgate panel.

Now for the known problems; the gas gauge does not read full. The sending unit only registers 3/4 full when the tank is full. Heater and defrost blower has only high speed. Door locks are not keyed the same, the bed has two fuel filler doors but there is only the rear tank. Windshield washer fluid pump does not work. Air conditioning works but needs recharged with new refrigerant and seal kit.

I do not want to sell this truck. I have had similar short bed fords for the past 20 years. This truck is not collectible, but it is the last year for the 4.9 l 300 cu in. engine and Twin I Beam front suspension. These features were introduced on the F100 in 1965, and 1996 was the last year for both. This truck is the end of a successful era for The Ford F 150's, and I would like to see this one find a good home. I have been using this as my daily driver this summer and have had no issues. The reason that I will be selling this truck is that I have inherited my fathers GMC, and as much as I like my Ford, I cannot keep two trucks.

This truck would be good as a second vehicle around the house or farm, parts are cheap and plentiful. The drivetrain is bulletproof and there are many more years of service left in this truck.

George W. Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 fizzles with $300,000 bid at Barrett-Jackson [UPDATE: w/video]

Sun, 20 Jan 2013

Despite some truly impassioned pleading from Jay Leno himself - including calling on Arizona's notoriously Republican-rich voters to beat the $600,000 level set the last time Leno sold a vehicle for this particular charity... in California - bidding for George Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 pickup truck stalled at $300,000.
All proceeds will be sent to the Fisher House Foundation, so at least it's $300K going to a good cause. Feel free to check out the live image gallery above, which includes shots showing Leno's skills helming the auction, and read through the official auction description below.
*UPDATE: Video of the auction and Leno's prods to the crowd for more money can now be seen below.

Ford Fiesta ST in startling track battle against Toyota GT86

Wed, 26 Jun 2013

On the surface, there's very little that the Ford Fiesta ST and Toyota GT86 (or the Scion FR-S that is sold in the US, or the largely similar Subaru BRZ) share in common. One is a hatchback with power coming from a turbocharged engine routed to the front wheels. The other is a coupe with power coming from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder boxer engine routed to the rear wheels.
Thing is, both of them are reasonably priced performance cars aimed at a similar segment of the automotive marketplace, so a comparison isn't out of the question. It is with all of this in mind that we direct you to the video below, in which the blokes from Evo pit the two manic little machines against one another on a race track. The result? Well, it can be summed up this way: Fast versus fun.
See how the track battle goes down in the video below.

Ford Transit gets outfitted for prison duty

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

Between the Taurus-based Police Interceptor, the Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility and the F-150 and Expedition special service vehicles, Ford has no lack of offerings for law enforcement. And now it has one more in the form of the new Transit PTV.
Based on the fullsize Transit van, the Prisoner Transport Vehicle can move as many as 12 prisoners in three separate compartments between detention facilities. Created in collaboration with Pennsylvania-based Havis Prisoner Transport Solutions and with input from Ford's Police Advisory Board, the Transit PTV takes advantage of the Transit's considerable configuration options that include three roof heights, two wheelbases, three lengths and four body-styles - not to mention engine options that include the flex-fuel 3.7-liter V6, 3.5-liter EcoBoost and 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel.
"Transit PTV is the latest example of Ford's deep commitment to helping provide law enforcement agencies with capable vehicles. This concept proves Transit is upfit-ready and designed to Built Ford Tough standards," said Jonathan Honeycutt, Ford police marketing manager. "Many Police Advisory Board members have had the chance to drive this vehicle and they are excited about it. This new vehicle is tough, smart and efficient - ideal for the needs of law enforcement agencies."
