2001 Ford Ranger Edge Extended Cab Pickup 2-door 4.0l on 2040-cars
Houma, Louisiana, United States
This is a 2001 Ford Ranger. I have had the truck for about two and a half years and it has given me no issues. My children used the truck for school transportation, making short trips daily. I have done only standard maintenance, oil change every 5,000 miles, and kept the operating fluids in check and recently had the break pads changed on the front. The front end squeaks some but I have no alignment issues. The truck is equipped with a 4.0 V6 fuel injected engine and runs great! There is an aftermarket K&N intake and performance injector kit installed. This was installed prior to my ownership. This truck is fast and has lots of power. One issue with the engine, there seems to be a valve cover leak on the driver side and after it has been running you can smell oil. However,I change the oil every 5,000 miles and have not noticed any loss of oil. The driver seat is torn and the cruse control button covers need to be replaced, the curse still works. The truck has A/C that is cold and works great (I have not charged or had any work done to the A/C). It also features Alloy rims, an App radio, that will Bluetooth to your phone and can be upgrade to a GPS, satellite radio, and hands free calling thru your iPhone. The truck has a large cab with two bucket seats and two fold down jump seats all in good shape. Bead liner, full size spare, jack and tools and is equipped with a receiver hitch for towing. The tires look to be in fair shape and still have a good amount of life left. This is a 2wd with an automatic transmission. The transmission shows no sign of slippage and shifts smoothly. To my knowledge the truck has not been in an accident.

Jay Leno takes a Surfin' Safari in a 1937 Ford Woodie Restomod
Tue, 21 Oct 2014Woodie wagons were a major part of surfing culture in the 1960s, offering coastal style and a ton of room, and they even earned a mention in the Beach Boys' classic song Surfin' Safari. This week, Jay Leno's Garage takes a look at two modern, restomodded examples of these style icons.
Unlike a lot of restomods, builder Scott Bonowski keeps these wagons looking almost completely stock on the outside, and all of the upgrades are hidden underneath the timber. You can't tell by looking at it, but the '37 Woodie (pictured above) has independent front and rear suspension, disc brakes and a Ford 5.0-liter V8 under the hood.
Beyond the mechanical aspect, the craftsmanship into the wood is astounding. Bonowski claims there are between 30 and 50 coats of varnish on this wagon. It makes these woodies as much of a piece of fine furniture as a vehicle to drive.
Mulally to stay at Ford through end of 2014 at least
Fri, 06 Dec 2013Alan Mulally isn't going anywhere... at least not just yet. The CEO who helped turn around Ford Motor Company has been linked to the top job at tech behemoth Microsoft, leading to a flurry of rumors about potential successors. Those rumors, though, may have just been put to rest - at least for a little while.
Speaking to Edsel Ford II (great-grandson of company founder Henry Ford) at the unveiling of the new Mustang, Automotive News Europe confirmed that Mulally would stick around until the end of next year. "Alan is staying through the end of 2014 and that's all I know," said Ford. "Frankly, he has told us that his plan is to stay with Ford through the end of 2014."
Presuming that Edsel Ford is correct and that Microsoft isn't so hot on Mulally that it saves the position for him, it seems increasingly likely that the 68-year-old exec is more interested in continuing to work in Dearborn rather than in Redmond.
Reflecting on the Ford GT on its 10-year anniversary
Thu, 10 Apr 2014Ten years ago, during the bright-eyed enthusiasm of the early 2000s and before the collective automotive industry did its best Titanic impression, we had the Ford GT. An everyman's supercar like there'd never been (remember, this was before 638-horsepower Corvettes were a thing), the GT arrived with a supercharged, 5.4-liter V8 that produced 550 horsepower and graced this retro-styled rocket with an easy, sub-four-second sprint to 60 miles per hour.
Equal to the GT's performance were its looks. Inspired by the GT40 racers that dominated Le Mans and bested Ferrari in the 1960s, the sleek, low, almost-reptilian look of the GT was the absolute pinnacle of the retro styling that so defined the early 2000s.
Crank and Piston put together a video celebrating the ten-year-old GT, arguing that Ford is a bit too busy with the next-gen Mustang, which turns 50 next week, to do it themselves. In the short clip, there is gratuitous engine noise and supercharger whine, not to mention scenes of the white-on-red GT prowling the deserts and streets of Dubai. It's a bit short, but very nicely shot. Scroll down, have a look and be sure to turn up those speakers before getting started.
