1972 Ford F100 Ranger XLT!!!

- XLT

-EXCELLENT chrome trim and front bumper.

-GREAT paint job. Not a SEMA winner, but definitely slick. I'd say a couple steps above a simple daily driver.

-Black vinyl bench seat, black carpet, aftermarket radio.

-Good tires.

-Sliding rear window.

-351W motor that runs SUPER smooth with a Holley 4 Barrel. Cranks right up every time. Manual choke lever mounted under dash.

-I believe it's connected to a small block Ford C6. Shifts out perfectly.

-POWER DISC BRAKES up front! Great stopping power.

-Power Steering.

-Under dash factory AC Unit.

-Spray in bed liner.

-The little things work. Headlights, brights, turn signals, cargo light, dome light, under-hood light, horn, radio.

-The exhaust system (glass packs) sounds great! Runs out to long chrome tips!

Stuff that may need attention:

-Not sure the cigarette lighter works

-AC compressor is not there.

-Couple of small leaks underneath. Maybe front seal and rear main seal. May need a trans pan gasket at some point. Just snugged the bolts down a little. Small things!

-REALLY tiny little bubble or two starting to show itself at bottom of doors. Not even broken through paint.

-Under the nice carpet dash cover, you can see a small crack in the dash pad.

This truck is SOLID. The fire engine red paint is great. The chrome trim and bumpers are nice and flashy. The exhaust sounds tough. The steering is nice and tight. She cranks right up every time. I wouldn't be afraid to drive this truck anywhere, but like I always tell people, I would rather you check it all out yourself and get it home before going anywhere. That's what I would do with any old vehicle, just to be safe! I love this truck. If you are looking for a daily driver, head-turning solid truck, then look no further. This one is stellar. Got a couple little things to keep you busy and your wrenches turning, but what old car doesn't! Amazing truck. Get it before it's gone! Check out the video and thanks for looking!!

Winning bidder to work out and cover shipping. I will help with loading up, too. Email with any questions. Truck is sold AS-IS, WHERE-IS. Comes with Bill of Sale. Lower and Fair reserve set.

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost flogged and analyzed by Ignition

Mon, 13 Oct 2014

Aside from the way it looks and perhaps its independent rear suspension, the biggest bit of news on the 2015 Mustang may be the inclusion of its 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine. That blown mill marks the first time since the Mustang SVO of the '80s that a turbo has been fitted under the engine of Ford's pony car.
The Mustang EcoBoost is the subject of the latest episode of Ignition from Motor Trend, giving us a great look at the technical, nitty-gritty side of the turbocharged coupe. Covering it from bow to stern, host Carlos Lago walks us through the boosted Ford before taking to the track for some driving impressions, with particular praise given to the low-end grunt of the 2.3-liter mill.
Check out the full video and then let us know which 2015 Mustang has your interest piqued the most - the EcoBoost four, the 5.0L V8 or the entry-level V6.

Ford's struggles in China continue as November sales drop 8 percent

Mon, Dec 11 2017

Ford's sales in China fell 8 percent in November from a year ago, following a 5 percent decline in October, the U.S. automaker said on Monday. The firm's sales in the first 11 months of the year totaled 1.06 million vehicles, down 6 percent from the same period a year ago. Ford's China sales growth has lagged behind rivals in the world's top auto market this year, with the carmaker now looking to overhaul its strategy to revive growth in China under new chief executive Jim Hackett. Among other moves, the review of its China operations will likely see Ford focus on segments such as electric cars and electric commercial vans, with China encouraging to help clean up its polluted and congested city centers. Ford is looking to roll out more new-energy vehicles for China and is planning to experiment with a more direct selling approach in a partnership with Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.
