Austin, Texas, United States

For Sale: 1984 Ford Bronco II XLT 4x4 

This Bronco is in great condition and has very low mileage for its age (45,2** original miles). I am the second owner of this Bronco and have had it for about 18 months. The original owner was an elderly gentleman who lived in Franklin, Texas and primarily used the truck on his farm. To my knowledge, it has been garage kept most of its life and it shows. The truck runs great, AC blows cold, engine is strong, power steering is perfect and 4x4 is fully functional. 

This is easily the cleanest, lowest mileage Bronco II available in all of the market today. This was the first production year for the BII and has all available options on the XLT. For the time, this was a decked out truck. 

Stats:

I currently use this Bronco as a daily driver for my short commute to my office downtown. It runs great and has had several repairs / upgrades in the last two years:

- Professionally converted AC to R410. AC Blows cold!
- New Water Pump ( ~ 6mo ago)
- New Belts (1mo ago)
- New Carburetor (1mo ago)
- New Alternator (1yr ago)
- New Battery (2yr ago)
- New tires (2yr ago - Less than 5K mi)

The Good:
- 4x4 works great
- AC works great and blows cold
- Transmission shifts smoothly ad feels brand new
- Truck is smooth on the highway at 65mph
- Power Steering is in perfect shape
- Engine is strong

Known Issues:

Due to the age of this truck, it has several minor items that are worth disclosing:

- Cruise control does not work
- Fuel gauge is on the fritz
- Wipers only have 2 speeds instead of 5
- Interior map light does not work and needs electrical work to be fixed.
- Body has minor dents and abrasions. Some of these have surface rusting (no structural rust!)
- Minor exhaust leak in the engine comartment that produces an audible clicking sound.

Toyota fears supplier pressure in Australia with GM pull out

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

With Ford and General Motors both announcing an end to production in Australia, the country's auto industry is in a bad way. With the exit of two big players, there's increased concern that a third Australian manufacturer, Toyota, will be forced out, as well.
"We are saddened to learn of GM Holden's decision. This will place unprecedented pressure on the local supplier network and our ability to build cars in Australia," Toyota Australia said in a statement. The GM closure of Holden production will be the direct end to 2,900 jobs, but will also force a dramatic reduction in the size of the country's supplier network, as there will simply be fewer cars to build.
In the same statement, Toyota Australia said it would work with suppliers and local government to figure out whether continuing production Down Under was even feasible. According to Automotive News, a representative for the Australian Manufacturing Workers' Union told reporters it was "highly likely" that Toyota would also close up shop within the next few years.

Ford Mustang to get four-cylinder in Europe, but not US

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Fans of the Ford Mustang SVO, which was produced from 1884 through 1986 with a turbocharged 2.3-liter four-cylinder engine and a manual transmission, may be interested to know that Ford is reportedly going to introduce something similar for 2015. But don't get too excited if you live in the US, as Edmunds reports that the vehicle will be offered in Europe only. Boo!
According to the report, Ford will put a version of its EcoBoost turbocharged four-cylinder into the engine bay of the Mustang. The engine would be enlarged from its current 2.0 liters to 2.3 liters, taking horsepower from 252 to around 300. The well-known 5.0 V8 engine will also be available in Europe.
"The Mustang is uniquely Ford and has a huge fan base here in Europe. Now those fans have something to look forward to and we look forward to providing more details in the near future," says Ford of Europe CEO Stephen Odell. That's great... but why not offer buyers in the States the (likely) fuel-efficient turbo option, too?

Ford and GM link bonus checks to quality scores

Tue, 29 Apr 2014

The poor first quarter earnings of Ford and General Motors are having an effect all the way up the food chain. Both automakers struggled with recalls in the first three months of the year, and, according to The Detroit News, they have responded by increasing the percentage of bonuses tied to vehicle quality for salaried workers, including top executives.
GM announced that 25 percent of bonuses (up from 10 percent) for all salaried workers would be tied to its vehicle quality standards. The automaker revealed in its financial report that it spent $1.3 billion on recall-related repairs in the first quarter, and net income was down 86 percent.
Ford also increased the quality proportion of bonuses for about 26,000 salaried workers all the way up to CEO Alan Mulally from 10 percent to 20 percent. The company announced in its report that the amount paid out in warranty and recall claims was about $400 million higher than expected in the first quarter. Its net income fell 39 percent from the previous year. "The change reflects how critical quality is to our overall business," said spokesperson Todd Nissen speaking to Autoblog.
