This is a great rig, the camo paint job is epic and the rig has served me very well as a hunting vehicle or something just to take into the hills for a drive. However, I'm moving and can't take it with me and have to let it go. There is no hundreds unit in the odometer; so, it has either 194000 or 294000 miles on it. The engine and driveline work very well, including the 4WD. The 351 Windsor engine still has plenty of power to get you through the hills and for having a bit of fun, I love driving this rig. The tires have less than 2000 miles on them, Maxxis Bighorn 31x10.5x15. I've spent a lot of money having fun with fixing important parts in the rig; the following have been replaced or fixed within the last 1-2 years: Edelbrock carburetor, tie-rods, tie-rod ends, front brake calipers and rotors, brake master cylinder, steering gear, headlights, cap-rotar-spark plugs-wires, fluids, CD-player, and alignment. I've tried to provide pictures of the major body damage areas, including a big dent in the driver's side door, rust on the rear driver's side body panel, and rust on the rear door. Besides these major areas, there aren't many dents and only a few small surface rust spots; as is expected with an older vehicle. The interior is worn and torn in areas, the seats work but are also old and worn. The rear electric window works, I fixed that recently. I've removed the AC compressor and residual gas pump from the engine; if you want them, I still have them. The rear door handle doesn't work; however, it's never been a problem for me because I just put the window down, reach in, and pull the lock rods to open the door. Comes with a Haynes repair Manual. If you're looking for something cheap that will get you through the mountains, this is the rig for you!

Ford recalling 126,000 Fusions and Milans over wheel separation concern
Fri, 09 Dec 2011Ford has announced a recall of certain Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan vehicles after an investigation by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. A total of 128,616 2010 and 2011 models equipped with steel wheels may have been manufactured with wheel studs that could crack and split over time. If that happens, the vehicle may experience a wheel separation.
According to The Detroit News, the company is aware of a total of 30 wheel separation incidents, one of which occurred on the front of the vehicle. Even so, no injuries have been reported as a result of the defect.
The problem apparently stems from the fact that the mounting pads on the vehicles' steel wheels may have been faulty from the factory. In addition, the wheel mounting face on rear disc brakes may not have been installed properly. Ford will inspect the rear disc face and replace them as necessary. In addition, the company will replace all of the vehicle's wheel studs free of charge. Head to the NHTSA website for more information, and click past the jump to view the full recall notice.
2015 Galpin Ford GTR1
Mon, 25 Aug 2014Last year in Monterey, we met GTR1 for the first time. Galpin Auto Sports pulled the wraps off its Ford GT-based supercar, powered by a twin-turbocharged 5.4-liter V8 good for a whopping 1,024 horsepower and 739 pound-feet of torque. The thing was totally custom-made and reportedly took some 12,000 man hours to create. And there it sat on the Pebble Beach grass, $1,000,000-plus price tag and all.
This year, the Galpin was back, albeit with one big change. That twin-turbo engine? Gone. In its place, a 5.4-liter V8 with a 4.0-liter Whipple supercharger bolted on, delivering an astonishing 1,058 hp and 992 lb-ft of torque on 110-octane fuel. 0-60? 2.9 seconds. Top speed? Somewhere above 225 miles per hour.
"Some things to keep in mind: no stability control, no traction control," were the only warnings given by Galpin's Brandon Boeckmann before taking me on a quick spin in the supercar. And after having my eyes thrown into the back of my skull a few times, laughing hysterically and trying to regain full use of my hearing after my ear drums being bombarded by the apocalyptic roar behind me, Brandon pulled over and said it was my turn, if I was ready to take the wheel.
Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
