I will start off by saying this is my personal vehicle and the title is in MY name. I will be honest about everything and feel free to ask me anything! I have encountered a lot of dishonesty and I certainly want you to know what you are buying. This truck overall is in good condition. The paint shines like new. There isn't any chipping, fading or missing clear coat. There is one ding/dent as you could see in one of the pictures. The following have been recently replaced:Upper and lower ball joints, outer tie rod ends, pivot arm bushings, radius arm bushings, all four shocks, bearings, axle seals, pads, shoes, rotors, caliper/brackets, Front rubber brake lines, wheel cylinders, drums, 4 brand new tires in back, alignment, a couple of the leaf spring bushings, air filter, fuel filter, windshield wipers, thermostat and hoses, oil and filter. When I replaced all of these parts I specifically asked for the good parts and not the cheap stuff. Included with the sale will be an entire folder full of receipts. This truck has the Original Alcoa aluminum rims. The front tires are Firestone LT215/85/R15 and have about 7/32nds left. The rear are BRAND NEW Toyo H/T Open Country LT215/85/R16. This truck drives great! On the bottom of this description is two videos. One of them is the infamous blow-by test another is highway driving. These videos were from 3/26/13. This truck is from Tennessee, THE ONLY spot of rust on this truck is in the drivers side back door jam near the striker. Very weird that it rusted there. Seems that it is just surface rust anyway. The underneath and the bottom of the doors are SPOTLESS. Every time I drive this truck in salt I rinse it off in the garage that same night including the undercarriage. If you buy it you will see it is garage kept and I have a floor drain and hose in my garage. The only bad things I could tell you about this truck is the dash pad is cracked. However, this pad piece is EASY to replace. It is not the main dash piece. Any F series truck these years including broncos have this same piece. I have seen the piece on ebay for $40. Maybe a half hour job. Also, there is a noise that seems to be coming from the steering column sometimes when turning or hitting a bump while turning. I'm guessing it is the steering column, everything else is new. I have been told that I am very picky about my cars so this noise might not even bother you? I just want to tell you everything I know. I also just put a brand new Curt tow package on. All of the electric for the 7pin trailer hook up works and it comes with a drawtite electric brake module. The rear bumper and tailgate isn't in the best shape. The tailgate opens and closes very easily. The air conditioning blows ice cold and the heat works excellent. The transmission must have been rebuilt before I purchased this truck because it shifts GREAT. I have older rubber floor mats for the front and brand new weather tech rubber mats for the rear. It does come with a spare tire. The interior is clean, I have it shampooed regularly and I don't smoke. There is no weird smells or anything. The headliner in back is sagging a little. Not really noticeable but its one of the things I look at when I buy a car. This truck doesn't leak anything! It will only smoke blue when it is cold on the first start up. On the coldest day this year when the truck was parked outside at my work it has started without being plugged in. You will NOT be disappointed in this vehicle. Bid with confidence.

Ford vandalizes the SEMA Show floor with 2014 Transit Connect
Tue, 05 Nov 2013The Ford booth here at SEMA is practically a 1970s throwback with all these customized vans sitting front and center. And we're completely fine with that. Take the black and yellow (black and yellow, black and yellow) 2014 Transit Connect from Mobsteel above. It's got a great stance, sits on steel wheels and has a pretty cool paint job and graphics package to boot.
Of course, that's not the only van you can see at the Ford booth. In fact, there are 10 Transit Connect vans on display from Ford here at SEMA, and you can see them all in our live gallery of high-res images above. Then, if you want to know more about each specific model, feel free to scroll down to read all about these vans in the official press release from Ford.
How that awesome Mustang R/C car chase vid was made
Tue, 06 Aug 2013We've reported on a few R/C car chase videos in the past. One in particular that stands out as a favorite is Zach King's "The Cliché RC Action Chase." It featured a pair of Ford Mustang coupes racing through a cardboard city, plowing into outdoor patios and busting through construction zones. It was wonderfully creative and fun to watch, yet we know there was more to its creation than a bunch of guys fooling around with a camera one afternoon.
Turns out we were right, as evidenced by this video produced by Ford that takes us behind the scenes of Zach's creation. The young filmmaker explains why he chose the Mustang to star in his video, as well as how the cardboard sets were created, what equipment they used for shooting and what it was like when his video went viral. Ford found the young filmmaker and produced the followup as part of its Mustang Countdown video series, which will see a new video about the Mustang culture released every week until the original muscle car's anniversary on April 17, 2014.
Want to make an RC chase video of your own? Yeah, we do too. Watch the behind-the-scenes video below (you can refresh yourself on the mini feature film, too) before you get started.
Recharge Wrap-up: Ford Fusion and Toyota Highlander named Best Hybrids for Families; Funky Prius motorhome
Fri, Mar 13 2015Tesla Model S customers in China will receive a "Universal Mobile Charger" with their vehicle. The charger will allow drivers to charge their Tesla anywhere, without having to search out a Supercharger when out in the wild. It allows Model S drivers a bit more freedom and helps alleviate worries about traveling too far from home. It could also help sway potential customers who suffer from range anxiety. The charger will be free to new and existing customers when it becomes available this summer. Read more at Car News China. US News & World Reports' list of Best Cars for Families includes two hybrids. The 2015 Ford Fusion Hybrid was chosen as the Best Hybrid Car for Families, while the 2015 Toyota Highlander Hybrid was picked as the Best Hybrid SUV for Families. The Fusion hybrid was chosen for its roomy, comfortable cabin, as well as the MyKey system's features for new drivers. The Highlander Hybrid offers eight seats - good for carpooling - as well as good mileage and a quality infotainment system. Read more at US News & World Reports or at Hybrid Cars. Audi plans to give its electric vehicles looks that differentiate them from the rest of the lineup. "In early 2018, we will launch a battery-powered sports activity vehicle in the large premium segment with a range of more than 500 kilometers," says Audi's head of development, Ulrich Hackenberg. "It will have a new, very attractive design, which we are developing especially for the E-Tron range and for battery-electric vehicles." According to analysts, part of the reason the Toyota Prius was so successful was because it was easy to distinguish from other Toyota models with conventional powertrains. Read more at Automotive News Europe. An Australian man turned his Toyota Prius into a miniature motorhome. James Lawler used mostly scraps to build the tiny house – complete with tin roof, chimney, and stained glass window – for just $150 Australian. It took him about a week to finish. Lawler made use of his creation at the Meredith Music Festival so he didn't have to sleep in a tent. He was, however, fined by police for driving the makeshift motorhome.
