I am selling my 1994 Ford E-150 Conversion Van. My wife and i are now at the end of our great American road trip and looking at heading back home to Australia soon. We purchased this three months ago and has been a great car. Its the v6 4.9lt model so it has a great balance of power and economy.
The condition of the van is commensurate with it's age, there are signs of general wear and tear. Mechanically, it is in very good condition. We've travelled some 10,000 miles and have not encountered any problems. The previous owner was a mechanic and the van has travelled only 114,000 miles, which is pretty good considering it's age - it doesn't miss a beat. It has two captain's chairs in the front (some stitching is coming apart at the seams - easy to sew back together) and a rear bench seat which has been folded down into a double bed.
I've listed below the only issues we've encountered:
* Two chips in the windscreen - these have been covered with windscreen stickers to avoid it cracking
* The rear bench seat is controlled electronically, however it doesn't currently have a switch. This never bothered us as we only ever used it to sleep on whilst camping. It can be folded back up by using an external power source (e.g. we dropped it down in the first place by using a battery),
* The rear door does not currently open. The cable latch to fix this costs $30 from O'Reily's. We've simply been to busy to bother fixing it.
* The airconditioning needs to be re-gassed.
When we purchased the car, we installed four brand new Goodyear tires, so they are no more than three months old (we have the receipt for this). We also purchased an 'emergency kit' which includes brand new heavy duty jack, wheel brace, tire inflator, radiator stop leak, basic tool kit - none of this was ever used, and will come with the car. We will also leave our camping gear, which includes two sleeping bags, pillows, ice box, etc.
This van has been very good to us during our time on the road and can confidently say that it is a reliable vehicle. We've priced it to sell, however we will consider all reasonable offers. Please don't hesitate to give me a call if you'd like to discuss. We will be in Las Vegas as of Wednesday 2nd October and welcome an inspection.

Experts wonder if aluminum F-150 gives Ford a real advantage
Mon, 17 Mar 2014There's no doubt that Ford is taking a risk in producing the body of its upcoming new F-150 pickup truck in aluminum. What is up for debate, however, is whether aluminum was a wise risk to take in the first place. Wards Auto took the opportunity to poll some experts on the subject of aluminum versus steel in the automotive sector, with somewhat unsurprising results.
Richard Schultz, a project consultant at Ducker Worldwide, which bills itself as "a leading aluminum industry consultant (though they also deal in steels), suggests that the potential drawbacks to aluminum - higher costs, lower supply - aren't really impediments to the auto industry's increased acceptance of the lightweight metal.
Similarly, Randall Scheps, global automotive marketing director for Alcoa, a massive aluminum producer, counters claims that aluminum is less safe for vehicle occupants, suggesting that the use of aluminum can actually increase safety as it could potentially allow for larger vehicles with more crush space than steel.
Cosworth double-feature is XCar's a drool-worthy look back
Wed, Jun 11 2014While American fans of Ford performance cars in the '80s and early '90s were loving the 5.0 Mustang, Taurus SHO and, for those who wanted to be a little different, the Merkur XR4Ti, British fans of the Blue Oval were getting their own unique take on speed. The Sierra RS Cosworth (which was similar but not identical to the aforementioned Merkur) and later Escort RS Cosworth were the stuff of dreams with huge wings, hood vents and big power for their time and class. XCar Films aims to find out whether it is little more than nostalgia that makes these classics famous or it really is their legitimate performance. Thanks to its Formula One and racing success, Cosworth was already a well-established performance name in the UK by the time it began selling tuned engines to Ford for the Sierra and Escort. The Sierra RS Cosworth hit the scene in 1986 with a turbocharged, 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 204 horsepower and rear-wheel drive. Its huge wing at the back signaled it immediately as something special, and it proved to be a performance powerhouse on and off the track. When it was retired, Ford replaced it with the Escort RS Cosworth that used an upgraded version of the same engine with 217 hp, all-wheel drive and an even bigger rear wing to net yet more racing victories. XCar really gets into the spirit of the time, opening the video with the lo-fi grain of '80s and '90s TV, but to find out whether the Cossies stand up to modern scrutiny, you have to watch the video below. Stay tuned until the end to enjoy them at their best with some vintage motorsports footage. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

Detroit 3 to implement delayed unified towing standards for 2015
Mon, 10 Feb 2014Car buyers have a responsibility to be well-informed consumers. That's not always a very simple task, but some guidelines are self-evident. If you live in a very snowy climate, you generally know a Ford Mustang or Chevrolet Camaro might not be as viable a vehicle choice as an all-wheel drive Explorer or Traverse, for example. If you want a fuel-efficient car, it's generally a good idea to know the difference between a diesel and a hybrid. But what if it's kind of tough to be an informed consumer? What if the information you need is more difficult to come by, or worse, based on different standards for each vehicle? Well, in that case, you might be a truck shopper.
For years, customers of light-duty pickups have had to suffer through different ratings of towing capacities for each brand. For 2015 model year trucks, though, that will no longer be a problem. According to Automotive News, General Motors, Ford and Chrysler Group have announced that starting with next year's models, a common standard will be used to measure towing capacity. The Detroit Three will join Toyota, which adopted the Society of Automotive Engineers' so-called SAE J2807 standards way back in 2011.
The standard was originally supposed to be in place for MY2013, but concerns that it would lower the overall stated capacity for trucks led Detroit automakers to pass. Ford originally passed, claiming it'd wait until its new F-150 was launched to adopt the new standards, leading GM and Ram to follow suit. Nissan, meanwhile, has said it will adopt the new standards as its vehicles are updated, meaning the company's next-generation Titan should adhere to the same tow ratings as its competitors.
