Driving this BEAST

The Ranchero is blisteringly fast and I can say I do not have the guts to stay on the gas for very long – frankly, it’s scary fast.

It handles well with the suspension mods, considering the geometry is stock. The brakes keep up with the added power and are not boosted because I like heavy braking and steering in a heavy, powerful car like this. It has definitely turned a few heads at autocross events!

I would be 100% confident to get in this car and drive it anywhere today and would feel the same about seeing off the new buyer on a great road trip home.

Registered in Pennsylvania as antique to keep the insurance rates very low; clear title in my name.

About the sale:

I’m selling my Ranchero because I fell for (and bought) a 34 Ford pickup and have been, since that time, bitten by the traditional hot rod bug.

We can seal the deal with a $500 non-refundable PayPal deposit within 24 hours of auction close; the balance of payment will be due within 7 days after auction close. I will accept a wire transfer, cashier's check or cash; no money orders, please. To avoid paying a large PayPal service charge, I’ll only accept the deposit amount through PayPal.

Over the years, I’ve been totally satisfied, both as a buyer and seller, with Intercity Lines (http://www.intercitylines.com) and I’ll certainly make myself available for your shipper or you to get the car. If you win the auction and decide to fly to Philly to drive the Ranchero home, please call me and maybe I can pick you up at the Philly airport.

I’ll be happy to send you the title by FedEx on the day after your payment clears my bank (I’m giving myself a day in case I get jammed up at work and I can’t get to the FedEx box in time).

Any bidder with significant negative feedback or less than 5 total feedback ratings should contact me by phone to prevent his bid from being rejected. Thank you.

The Ranchero must be picked up by June 30th.

Call Franck @ (215) 272-7953

Happy bidding!

VW going turbo-only in 3 to 4 years

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

This really was a matter of when, rather than if. Volkswagen will apparently be the first manufacturer to phase out naturally aspirated engines in favor of turbocharging its full slate. VW is kind of responsible for ushering in this push towards small-displacement, turbocharged engines that's taken the industry by storm. When it dropped its direct-injection, 2.0-liter turbo in the 2005 GTI it demonstrated that strapping an iron long to an engine can enhance the powertrain as a whole. VW made fuel economy gains, while also giving a linear, non-laggy turbo experience that it has replicated, model-after-model, to this day.
Speaking with The Detroit News, Volkswagen's executive Vice President of Group Quality, Marc Trahan, told the paper that, "We only have one normally aspirated gas engine, and when we go to the next generation vehicle that it's in, it will be replaced. So three, four years maximum."
Really, it's hard to get teary-eyed about either of these engines going away. VW has access to smaller powerplants that could easily match the performance of the 2.5 five-cylinder and the 3.6 V6, while gobbling up less fuel and providing a better driving experience. What we are sad about is that a similar statement about the extinction of NA engines came from the Vice President of Powertrain Engineering at Ford, Joe Bakaj. We'd certainly get teary-eyed over a world without Ford's excellent 5.0-liter V8.

Ford's Mulally now said to be in lead for Microsoft CEO job

Sun, 29 Sep 2013

There have been rumors that Ford CEO Alan Mulally could assume the top job over at Microsoft, whose CEO, Steve Ballmer, will retire within the year. Mulally hasn't come out and said that he's considering moving to Microsoft after (or before) his contract with Ford through 2014 ends, but sources in the know say he's the front-runner to become the tech giant's CEO and has opened up to the idea more in recent weeks, AllThingsD reports.
Mulally is no stranger to Washington, where Microsoft is located, having worked in the state for Seattle-based Boeing Commercial Airplanes as CEO years ago. He also recently was an adviser to Ballmer in an effort to realign the company's management structure to help it become more competitive in a fast-changing computer hardware and software market. And when Ford developed its Sync digital interface, it tapped Microsoft to provide the operating system, Microsoft Auto. Perhaps the least crucial connection - but nonetheless an important one - is that Mulally still owns a house in the Seattle area, and it's been said he wants to return there, according to AllThingsD.
A main challenge Microsoft's next CEO will face is how to manage the company's numerous, fractured operations and, eventually, streamline them. But even on this front, Mulally has experience; after all, it was he who ushered in an era of global Ford vehicles, after the automaker had become complacent developing and selling vehicles by region leading up to the economic recession of 2008-2009.
