You are considering a VERY NICE Ford Bronco2. The paint is three years old with some minimal rock chips (see pics)due to the aggressive tires. Prior to the new paint, the Bronco was very straight with minimal rust. One small patch in front of a rear wheel and some around the wheel openings. The under body was very clean. This Bronco has a very slight lift, I believe 2 inches and the front wheel wells have been modified slightly to accept wheels. The Transmission was rebuilt two years(+-) ago and I believe the warranty goes with it. Some of the work done to this unit in the last four years(some paper work to support this...not all) New PW and door lock motors, drive shaft, windshield and waterproofed the interior, brand new matching tire and wheel spare, Front brakes and shocks. If I remember right I had some gaskets on top of the motor replaced. New headlights. It does have an updated stereo. I'm sure I'm missing the nickel and dime items. The engine seems to be strong for 120k. no drips on the garage floor and no smoke out the tail pipe. It hasn't been drove since fall and sat during the winters while I owned it. What the bronco could use is some interior work but was acceptable to me. The radiator could use replacement, yet I have never had a problem(leaks when it's full?) I have never had it replaced because the truck has always screamed 302 but that never took place. I do have the original factory wheels and spare tire cover. Also the original owners guide. I believe everything is in working order including A/C and 4x4. REMEMBER>>>This Bronco 2 is 25 years old and will be sold as is with no returns so please have a mechanic check it out before buying!! I will be happy to send additional photos or ask any questions on this truck. A $500 non refundable deposit will be required upon buying. THIS BRONCO2 IS FOR SALE LOCALLY AND THIS MAY BE CANCELLED AT ANY TIME! Good luck. A TRUE SURVIVOR!!!

Car and Driver lists 10Best for 2013, same as it ever was
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Forgive us for having the distinct feeling of déjà vu, but it certainly feels like we've been here before. By that we are referring Car and Driver and the announcement of its annual 10Best vehicles for 2013. To be sure, it's an impressive selection of cars that combine heart-pounding performance and frugal sensibilities, but it also represents something of a broken record on the part of C/D. We're not so sure that's a flaw, though, as the resulting list is tough to argue with.
Vehicles like the Ford Mustang, Porsche Boxster, and BMW 3 Series have maintained their high-horsepower spots on this list for several years now. Even on the more practical and nimble end, the Honda Accord, Honda Fit and Mazda Miata have not budged. These continued spots are even in light of redesigns for some vehicles such as the Accord, Boxster and 3 Series.
In fact, the only newcomer to the 10Best list this year are the Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ twins, which knocked out the Cadillac CTS-V. We think it would have been a huge misstep to have excluded the FR-S/BRZ, even in light of the supercharged Caddy's lamentable departure from 10Best.
And the Top Gear UK Cars of the Year for 2013 are...
Tue, 17 Dec 2013Those loony Brits at Top Gear have named their Car of the Year, and if you're thinking it's the McLaren P1, Jaguar F-Type, Land Rover Range Rover Sport or Rolls-Royce Wraith, we're sorry to inform you that none of those Anglo automobiles earned the crown. In fact, the winner of Top Gear's most prestigious award is quite the surprise.
Of course, those cars weren't without their own awards. The P1 was the top hypercar (sorry, Porsche 918 and Ferrari LaFerrari), while the F-Type netted best convertible and the Range Rover Sport was voted SUV of the Year. Other honorable mentions included the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black and S-Class, the Porsche 911 GT3, the BMW i3 and the Ferrari 458 Speciale. The winner, though, wasn't even a high-dollar supercar. It was the Ford Fiesta ST.
Yes, the Fiesta ST beat out some off-the-wall cars like the revolutionary Volkswagen XL1 and the bonkers Peugeot 208 T16 Pikes Peak, not to mention all the cars we listed above, to take the title of Top Gear Car of the Year. And if you've driven one, you'll completely understand why.
Popular Science magazine's Best Of What's New 2012 all ate up with cars
Tue, 20 Nov 2012Popular Science has named the winners in its Best of What's New awards, the victors coming in the categories of aerospace, automotive, engineering, entertainment, gadgets, green, hardware, health, home, recreation, security and software. The automotive category did not go wanting for lauded advancements:
Tesla Model S: the Grand Award winner for being "the standard by which all future electric vehicles will be measured."
BMW 328i: it's 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gets called out for being more powerful and frugal than the six-cylinder it replaces.
