Ford E-350 w/7.3 diesel engine and automatic overdrive transmission.  We bought it from the turnpike commission - it was used to pick up toll booth money.  So all highway miles.  There is American Van interior shelving and a big Craftsman tool box - up against the OSHA screen.  We added some shelves on the passenger side too.


There are three ladder racks on the roof.  The batteries are new.  The tires are new.  The front brakes are new.  We used it as an HVAC/R service and installation truck and it was great for that.  Great to work out of and it will haul or tow Anything.  

Good:  the front brakes and tires are brand new.  I forget the brand but maybe Generals.  The tires and brakes don't have 2000 miles on them.  The water pump, idler, and belt were replaced a few months ago.  The 7.3 always starts and runs like a watch.  I have another one with over 400K on it - might be 450K by now - and it doesn't even smoke.  The 7.3's all apparently run forever.

Bad:  the heater fan stopped working and one of the guys wired it to a manual switch to make it work.  I think that speed resistor widget is bad under the hood.  It went bad one time before.  Of course there are the normal working truck scratches and some rust by the wheel well.  It was supposed all supposed to be touched up right after Christmas but my friends body shop kept putting me off.  Funny they never had a problem demanding that I fix the paint booth heaters right away.  But for paybacks they like dragging their feet it seems.  

Any questions just ask.

European car sales up 8% in February

Sat, 22 Mar 2014

Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.

Ford recalling 65k Fusions from 2014 and 2015 because key can be removed

Tue, 18 Nov 2014

Ford is recalling an estimated 64,869 examples of the 2014-2015 Fusion, Fusion Energi and Fusion Hybrid in North America because the key can be removed when the vehicle isn't in Park under certain conditions. Specifically, the campaign covers 56,479 units in the US, 6,048 in Canada and 2,342 in Mexico, according to the automaker's tally on November 11.
Ford says a programming problem in the instrument cluster means that the key can be removed 30 minutes after the ignition is turned off, even if the transmission is not in Park. The situation where this could happen seems quite limited, and the company is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to the issue. However, the fault puts the vehicle out of compliance with federal regulations covering theft protection and rollaways, and must be repaired.
The fix is easy: Ford will reprogram the instrument cluster at no cost to consumers. According to Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker in an email to Autoblog, "We will notify customers the week of January 5th." Scroll down to read Ford's announcement.

Tier 1 suppliers call GM the worst OEM to work with

Mon, 12 May 2014

Among automakers with a big US presence, General Motors is the worst to work for, according to a new survey from Tier 1 automotive suppliers, conducted by Planning Perspectives, Inc.
The Detroit-based manufacturer, which has been under fire following the ignition switch recall and its accompanying scandal, finished behind six other automakers with big US manufacturing operations. Suppliers had issues with trust and communications, as well as intellectual property protection. GM was also the least likely to allow suppliers to raise their prices in the face of unexpected increases in material cost, all of which contributed to 55 percent of suppliers saying their relationship with GM was "poor to very poor."
GM's cross-town competitors didn't fare much better. Chrysler finished in fifth place, ahead of GM and behind Dearborn-based Ford, which was passed for third place this year by Nissan. Toyota took the top marks, while Honda captured second place.
