1977 Automatic 4WD Ford Bronco for sale!  This Bronco had a major restoration done in 2008, the year before i bought it.  He dropped in a 5.0, put in front power disk brake kit, diamond plate gas tank box, carpets, headliner, paint, wheels, hood scoop, and lift.  Since I've had it I've done a transmission rebuild, put on some new tires, drove it about 3000 miles, and looked at it lovingly sitting in my garage.

Bronco has good power, sounds nice and throaty, and drives like a Bronco should.  Tends to wander around in the lane at slow speeds, but so did both of my other Broncos.  Have bimini top and hard top, both in good condition. Hard top came off the day after i got it, but it goes with the truck.

It looks good, even up close, but it's not perfect.  There are little rust spots in the usual places.  Nothing really visible, but if you start looking underneath, like in the rear wheel well, and there is some slight bubbling of the paint on the tailgate. The left turn signal doesn't shut off automatically, so i sometimes drive for miles with the blinker on.  The fill pipe on the rear tank is not sealed perfectly, so after I fill the rear tank up completely, I lose a little gas when I gun it off the line. Parking brake is not hooked up.

How Ford hid the 2015 Mustang from spy photographers

Fri, 20 Dec 2013

Now that we've finally seen the 2015 Ford Mustang, it's fun to go back and look at the spy shots we spent months pouring over, trying to dissect what was under all the camouflage. For the most part, Ford did a good job of concealing the car from spy photographers, and it released a video showing how much work went into doing so.
As crude as the Mustang's camo looked, all of the hard plastic, foam, vinyl and ratchet straps were actually created and put in place by a specific design team. The whole idea was to hide the car's identity, but it certainly ended up acting as a magnet for attention, too. According to Ford's press release, it took less than an hour for spy shots to appear online after the car was taken on public roads for the very first time - this is likely in reference to our first official spy shots of the Mustang from June, shown in the gallery below.
Scroll down for a press release and video, which shows footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang testing with minimal camouflage. This is probably the same track session where we got our first look at the Mustang's face back in August.

Ford C-Max, Fusion hybrids subject of MPG lawsuit in California

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

A California lawsuit over the fuel economy claims for the 2013 Ford C-Max was first reported back in December. Based on the numerous reports we've heard of disgruntled owners failing to get their car's EPA fuel economy ratings on the C-Max and 2013 Fusion Hybrid, we suspected there would be more to this story. The Detroit News is reporting that two California law firms are combining their lawsuits against Ford on this matter for "false and misleading" claims.
The article states that there are hundreds of C-Max and Fusion Hybrid owners who have joined the lawsuit, but the issue isn't limited to customers. In December, Consumer Reports extensively tested both the Fusion Hybrid and C-Max and found that both hybrids performed significantly worse than their EPA claims. This all comes just a few months after Hyundai and Kia took the unprecedented step of lowering the fuel economy ratings for all of their 2012 and 2013 model-year vehicles.
