1992 FORD AEROSTAR ALL WHEEL DRIVE SHORTY

GOOD:

NO LEAKS, SHIFTS GOOD, TEMPERATURE IS NORMAL, ENGINE HAS NO NOISES, INTERIOR IS CLEAN AND NO RIPS OR SERIOUS STAINS. EXTERIOR HAS NO DENTS, CLEARCOAT IS NICE AND PAINT IS SHINY. TIRES ARE HALF TREAD. ALL OPTIONS WORK INCLUDING COLD A/C. HAS A TRAILER HITCH. HAS A NEW BUG SHIELD AND RAIN VISORS. HAS AFTER MARKET WHEELS AND RUNNING BOARDS. THE CV JOINTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED SOME TIME BACK.

BAD:

1 AREA OF RUST UP UNDER THE ROCKER ABOVE THE RUNNING BOARDS (see pic - can't see rust unless you lay on the ground and look up). SUNVISORS HAVE DISCOLORED. REAR BUMPER IS CRACKED (see pic). THE PASSENGER DOOR IS A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT COLOR WHITE (I assume it has been replaced at some point). THE INDICATOR BEZEL (PRND23) IS MISSING. THE GEAR LEVER CATCHES SOME WHEN PUTTING IT IN GEAR (once you do it and see how it's quirky, it's not a big deal). SOME PAINT MISSING ABOVE THE DOOR (see pic).

We've driven the van on a couple trips lately. It always does great. It always starts and is a reliable vehicle. This winter the van was in a snow (2 inches) covered parking lot at the bottom of a steep hill. It went up the snowy hill like it was on dry pavement. Amazing in the snow and rain.

The short wheel base and running boards and wheels really set the van off. It's a good looking van and runs good too !!

I wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere you need to go.

the deposit is NON REFUNDABLE but you are not obligated to take the van but you will lose the $150 deposit

Ford Fiesta ST gets worked out on the track

Sun, 10 Mar 2013

We're big fans of the turbocharged Ford Focus ST, and we're plenty excited that the Blue Oval will be offering a similar treatment on the smaller Fiesta here in the United States, too. We first saw the production-ready Fiesta ST five-door at the Los Angeles Auto Show last fall, and Ford has now released this video of a Euro-spec three-door ST being flung around the track.
But not just any track - the challenging Track 7 of Ford's Lommel Proving Grounds in Belgium. The course features 20 turns and plenty of elevation changes along its 2.7-mile loop, and David Put, a vehicle dynamic specialist at Ford, shows just how good the pint-sized Fiesta ST is at handling the lot, even getting the smallest ST up on three wheels every now and then.
It sure does look like a lot of fun, and makes us really eager for our chance to try this ourselves. Scroll down to see the hot little Ford getting busy.

Barrett-Jackson 2014: First production 2015 Ford Mustang earns $300k for JDRF [w/video]

Sat, 18 Jan 2014

We've almost become immune to the huge dollar amounts that collectible cars earn for charity at Barrett-Jackson. To wit, $300,000 for the first production 2015 Ford Mustang initially didn't seem like very much money. In reality, though, it's probably about 10 times the actual asking price for the car, and we're pleased to report that 100 percent of the proceeds will go to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
According to Ford, the car's winning bidder will get to "choose a fastback with manual or automatic transmission, and any interior, exterior and stripe color combination offered by Ford on the all-new Mustang." Power will come from a slightly revised version of the well-known 5.0-liter V8 engine that will produce "more than 420hp and 396 pound-feet of torque."
We snapped live images of the 2015 Mustang prototype that Ford had on display here at Barrett-Jackson, and you can check them out above. The official auction description, along with a video of the auction as it happened live, is below.

Ford using robot drivers to test durability [w/video]

Sun, 16 Jun 2013

In testing the durability of its upcoming fullsize Transit vans, Ford has begun using autonomous robotic technology to pilot vehicles through the punishing courses of its Michigan Proving Grounds test facility. The autonomous tech allows Ford to run more durability tests in a single day than it could with human drivers, as well as create even more challenging tests that wouldn't be safe to run with a human behind the wheel.
The technology being used was developed by Utah-based Autonomous Solutions, and isn't quite like the totally autonomous vehicles being developed by companies like Google and Audi for use out in the real world. Rather, Ford's autonomous test vehicles follow a pre-programmed course and their position is tracked via GPS and cameras that are being monitored from a central control room. Though the route is predetermined, the robotic control module operates the steering, acceleration and braking to keep the vehicle on course as it drives over broken concrete, cobblestones, metal grates, rough gravel, mud pits and oversize speed bumps.
Scroll down to watch the robotic drivers in action, though be warned that you're headed for disappointment if you expect to see a Centurion behind the wheel (nerd alert!). The setup looks more like a Mythbusters experiment than a scene from Battlestar Galactica.
