1986 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Sedan 2-door 2.3l on 2040-cars
Richmond, Indiana, United States
Up for sale is my 1986 Ford Thunderbird Turbo Coupe. Was a Texas car originally from Illinois. Its 90% original no rust or any accidents ever. Everything works great on the car its ready to drive anywhere. It does great on the highway still has plenty of power and it is good on gas on the highway easily 25+ mpg. It rides really smooth much nicer than any other fox I have ever been in (although I heard the Elan t-bird was even nicer). The upgrades are off 87-88 T-bird but are stock parts the hood, intercooler, VAM, LA3 computer. The only things not factory are full exhaust header too (will pass emission) rims and it does have a one wire alternator it needed more power the factory one was really weak. The only thing this car could use is small wheel spacers on the front rubs in reverse and only if its fully turned. Other than that it dont leak or need brakes or a tune up or a battery the tires may have 2000 miles on them. The way I see it insurance is cheep its a classic the value will keep goin up. A new car has expensive insurance plates it looses value every year. Plus its different it stands out you dont see many of these and its a shame cause with just some wheels they can be very good lookin. If I cant sell it its prolly getting raped by a coyote but Id like to go to a collector or someone who appreciates its originality. Well if you have any questions message me or give me a text or call 765-977-0091. If I cant answer just leave a message. Thanks for lookin.

Chrysler called out over lackluster Ram Runner by racer who helped develop it
Fri, 11 Apr 2014Fans of off-roading and desert blasting might recall that Chrysler offers an aftermarket conversion that can turn a Ram 1500 into a road-legal desert racer, called the Ram Runner. The kit, sold through Mopar, includes some significant suspension upgrades, body tweaks and a brawnier cat-back exhaust for the truck's 5.7-liter V8.
Considering all of this, comparisons with the almighty Ford F-150 SVT Raptor are common. Among the off-road community, that makes these two a sort of Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang for people that prefer driving on dirt. In the Race-Dezert forum, the discussion as to which truck was better was proceeding as normal - Ram fans said their piece and Ford fans said theirs. Then, a man named Kent Kroeker offered up his two cents.
See, Kroeker is a Baja racer, and the man that helped develop the Ram Runner. Despite his association with the truck, though, he had some less than kind words for Chrysler and the Ram Runner.
Ford ditching Microsoft in favor of BlackBerry QNX for next-gen Sync?
Mon, 24 Feb 2014Ask the average consumer - at least, those who follow the goings-on in the automotive industry - which carmaker they'd most closely associate Microsoft, and the answer you'd most likely get would be Ford. The Blue Oval automaker, after all, was at the forefront of bringing Microsoft technology into cars with its pioneering Sync system, and, though reality didn't turn out as such, Ford's CEO was recently touted as a potential future head of the Redmond-based software giant. But that relationship, according to the latest reports, could be coming to an end.
Alan Mullaly kiboshed the idea of leaving Dearborn for Redmond, but more importantly Ford is tipped to be ditching Microsoft in developing its next-generation Sync system. In its place, Ford is expected to partner with BlackBerry's QNX division.
Now, before you go balking "BlackBerry?! But they're finished!" consider that QNX is (or at least was) an independent entity that Research In Motion (as BlackBerry's Ontario-based parent company was then known) just happened to have bought back in 2010. QNX provides control systems to everything from nuclear power plants and UAVs to automakers like Audi, BMW and Porsche.
2016 Ford Explorer embarks at the LA Auto Show
Wed, 29 Oct 2014Twenty-five years since its debut in 1990, Ford will celebrate a quarter century of Explorer models next year with the debut of a refreshed 2016 model at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show on November 19. The Blue Oval is keeping mum on hard details about the updated SUV for now, but the brand promises, "a new look, added capability and additional driver-assist technology," in its announcement.
Company marketing boss Jim Farley elaborated a little more on what to expect. "The new Explorer is still the SUV America fell in love with - a vehicle built for the perfect family adventure," he said in the release that you're welcome to read down below.
An updated Explorer is a pretty big deal for Ford's bottom line. Worldwide, SUVs and crossovers account for about 23 percent of Ford's sales, and the segment is projected to grow to around 29 percent by 2020. Ford further says that SUVs and CUVs are the world's quickest growing segment with demand up 88 percent since 2008.
