Grand Daddy of today's diesel monster trucks. 1984 F250 built to tow horse trailers by central coast horse breeder. They took the stock truck and installed 4.56 ratio rear gears and a Gear Vendors 22% overdrive (its controlled by the blue button on the shift lever) as well as an ATS non-wastegated turbo. They also put temperature senders in the oil pan and rear end as well as the GV OD and an extra one for engine water. And an Isspro tachometer. They then sold it to a guy in San Luis Obispo who used it to tow very large boats. I had the 4.56 rear-end swapped out for a 2.73 but still have the stump-puller gears that will go with the truck. I used it to haul a cab-over camper and liked to go way too fast up hills and ended up blowing a head gasket. By the time I got the engine rebuilt my kid hated camping so the truck has not been used much. I replaced the batteries and the fuel-return lines so it starts right up even after sitting for months. I keep the batteries floated with a solar charger. The fuel senders don't work and I suspect that the mileage is short 100K. The AC was converted to R134A with new hoses and a parallel flow condensor. It froze meat when it worked but the R134A leaked out during the engine rebuild. The truck lived at the beach for a while so there is some surface rust but nothing structural.
Its a monster that I don't need anymore.
Where is--As is. No warranties.

2015 Ford Mustang production to begin on July 14? Not quite, says Ford
Thu, 10 Jul 2014Mustang6g.com believes that it has unlocked start date for 2015 Ford Mustang production citing a Ford dealer communiqué. According to the report, job one on the 2015 hardtop will allegedly start in just a few days, on July 14, although units that are known as "OK to Buy" won't enter production until September 9. The cars built between those dates are most likely final pre-production cars for the executive test fleet, and will likely include the cars we'll be driving at the media launch.
Sun worshippers, meanwhile, would seem to have a longer wait. Job one on the droptop supposedly isn't slated to start until September 14, with production models starting on October 27. As is the case with the hardtop, these final pre-pros are for the execs and media to test, while actual dealer orders will come from vehicles made after the October date.
After speaking to Ford, though, we wouldn't put a great deal of stock in those dates as reported. We reached out to Said Deep, Ford's North American Product Communications Manager.
Ford Fiesta ST gets worked out on the track
Sun, 10 Mar 2013We're big fans of the turbocharged Ford Focus ST, and we're plenty excited that the Blue Oval will be offering a similar treatment on the smaller Fiesta here in the United States, too. We first saw the production-ready Fiesta ST five-door at the Los Angeles Auto Show last fall, and Ford has now released this video of a Euro-spec three-door ST being flung around the track.
But not just any track - the challenging Track 7 of Ford's Lommel Proving Grounds in Belgium. The course features 20 turns and plenty of elevation changes along its 2.7-mile loop, and David Put, a vehicle dynamic specialist at Ford, shows just how good the pint-sized Fiesta ST is at handling the lot, even getting the smallest ST up on three wheels every now and then.
It sure does look like a lot of fun, and makes us really eager for our chance to try this ourselves. Scroll down to see the hot little Ford getting busy.
Here's the new face of the Ford Ranger
Thu, Nov 27 2014Ford Asia Pacific has put a teaser video on YouTube showing off details on the 2015 Ranger pickup, and at the end we get a quick glimpse of the whole truck. This is the T6 Ranger that we still don't get in North America, but that shares its underpinnings with the Everest SUV recently introduced at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum. The Ranger gets a chunkier front end than the Everest, identified by its grille with three floating slats, reminiscent of designs on the previous F-150, and a less-stylized lower front bumper. Ford says it will be smarter, safer, smoother and stronger, but we'll have to wait for its reveal to find out what that means. Meanwhile, you can admire its new looks in the video below.
