!965 Ford 1 Ton F-350 2nd Owner on 2040-cars
Palisade, Colorado, United States
I`ve had this workhorse 22 years. It mostly sat around or hauled light loads.since 1992. Recently sent the carb out for reman (Autolite 1100) Fuel pump & filter, 180 deg thermostat & iron housing, Water pump, Radiator hose & cap, heater hoses, battery, ignition key & lock, new clutch spring, cleaned gastank & line. Topped off tranny, tires & differential. Greased the driveline ball joints & kingpins. Fresh oil change & fram filter. restored oilbath air cleaner. The radiator was replaced with an exact replacement from Modine (oem supplier I`m told) back in the 90`s and it remains in excellent undamaged condition. Can`t call it new, but it sure looks it.
There`s no pumping the gas pedal or choking/ unchoking it, You just barely flick the key & it starts & purrs. It`s jetted & set for 5000 feet altitude. Motor is a 150 horse 240 cubic inch straight 6. Runs excellently. Trans is a New Process np435 4 speed with a super low granny gear. Differential is a Dana 70 that`s geared at I believe a 5.87:1 ratio so top end is mid to upper 50`s mph range while low end pulling power is impressive. 7.50x 16 wheels & tires, 7 of `em. The 9 ft flatbed with header & sides was made in December `64 so I`m sure it`s been on it since day one. It has factory overload springs and can haul way more than a ton. Carb & engine block still have their original tags. I watch ebay for trucks like these and see maybe 3 if that, in any given year. So either they`re rare or the people that have `em aren`t parting with them. They hardly ever come up for sale. Unlike the 1/2 & 3/4 ton pickups this one has the large inner fenders and wheel well openings and the battery compartment under the foor. You see this on factory 4wd & one ton trucks only. The upholstery needs repadded & a new cover, headliners not great, could use a windshield & rubber mounting. But the body looks to be rust free. I have a free & clear Colorado title in hand. I named her "Betty Ford" because she`s a tough ol` gal. Neither Betty is any kind of lightweight & this one just came out of rehab !

Ford to add Android Auto and CarPlay to 2016 SYNC 3 cars via update
Fri, May 19 2017Ford is updating a large number of 2016 model year cars equipped with SYNC 3 infotainment software, adding Android Auto and CarPlay to the vehicles with a free, over-the-air update via Wi-Fi, or using either USB or going through their dealer. The upgrade will be available for around 800,000 vehicles in total, giving a huge number of Ford car owners the chance to get big infotainment improvements without having to buy a newer model car. The OTA update option is also a big step for Ford – it's the company's first for software ever, and it's one of the major reasons that Ford recently hired around 400 new mobile smartphone engineers, the company tells me. For CarPlay, users will still also need to upgrade their vehicle's USB hub to make this work (which will also incur a dealer visit and a cost), but for those on Android, all that's required is a simple software installation. The USB install method is also faster, but the Wi-Fi update option is the start of the company's efforts to really increase its OTA update program, which will be used for security improvements as well as infotainment bumps. Even with a dealer visit and hardware upgrade for CarPlay, this sounds like a worthwhile thing for 2016 vehicle owners to do. CarPlay and Android Auto are huge upgrades vs. most in-car software, offering navigation and entertainment options that follow you from your phone to your car. Retroactively offering this kind of thing to car owners is a definite change in tone for carmakers, since they typically use these kinds of things as incentives to get people interested in vehicle model updates. But as data becomes increasingly important to automakers as a business, it makes sense to encourage greater in-car use of devices.Written by Darrell Etherington for TechCrunchRelated Video: Auto News Ford Lincoln Technology Infotainment android
Watch NASCAR racer Brad Keselowski do a burnout... in a hotel conference room
Fri, 08 Mar 2013A vast majority of hotels frown upon smoking inside the building these days, but Brad Keselowski doesn't follow the rules. During his introduction at the 2013 MiilerCoors Distribution Convention, the reigning NASCAR Sprint Cup champion smoked the tires of his Miller-sponsored Ford Fusion stock car, adding a pair of thick, black stripes to the carpeting of the Marriott World Center's conference room.
This definitely isn't a high-quality video, but it's the perfect vantage point to watch Keselowski lay down some rubber and receive a well-deserved standing ovation after pulling up in front of the crowd. Check out the short-but-sweet video posted below.
Aussie Ford Falcon GT shows its rear end to Lamborghini Gallardo
Sun, 27 Apr 2014When Ford Australia announces, as it did recently, that it wants to celebrate the end of its Ford Performance Vehicle division with a Falcon FPV GT-F that celebrates big-bore origins of the nameplate, it's talking about the kind of car in this video.
At some point the classic Falcon GT - said to be an XY series - was invited to a test of acceleration against a Lamborghini Gallardo. At the very least, the Falcon GT had a 351 cubic-inch motor and 300 horsepower, but whatever this guy's got under the hood of his yellow sedan makes has him so confident that he doesn't even move his elbow from its resting place on the door.
You'll find a reminder of Ford Australia's heyday, a raucous exhaust note and some NSFW language in the short video below.
