The headliner is a PVC backed with faux red suede. All artwork was done by the Son. Some pieces were hand painted. New carpet/padding. Bench seat was torn down and custom filled with new foam and added height and thickness to the bench. It sits very comfortably. The bed was carpeted. The carpet sits down with snaps so it can be removed. The side walls have hand made PVC panels covered in satin black vinyl. Completely waterproof. The body was straightened and customized by the Son. The paint has been done in gold over the original yellow. The painted was sealed and has been enhanced over the last 5 months to bring out the true history, character, and beauty of the way the truck naturally aged. A series of 800 grit all the way up to 2000 grit, buffing and polishing techs were used to enhance the natural aged patins and character to truly make this a ONE OF A KIND . The original tailgate was badly bashed up. It was repaired without using any body filler to maintain the same theme. The gate was de-seamed and disassembled, then worked back to shape and re welded together. The truck is very dependable, safe, and drives supper, and gets looks everywhere we go. When we come out of a store, there are always people around checking it out. So if you are ready to instantly be The Cool Guy, this is truly a fun, safe, reliable, go anywhere ride. Plus, she really stirs the soup.  photo JB37_zps8c761300.jpg  photo JB36_zps5c0a3693.jpg  photo JB33_zps8eecc4c4.jpg  photo JB31_zps7b5b8894.jpg  photo JB30_zps18ea55e7.jpg  photo JB28_zps72e366bd.jpg  photo JB26_zps8dd7cd61.jpg  photo JB25_zpsd457e299.jpg  photo JB24_zps900d30a8.jpg  photo JB20_zps22bdced7.jpg

Ford to hack $4k off price of Focus EV amid slow sales

Wed, 10 Jul 2013

Between slow sales and a hefty price drop for its nearest rival, the Ford Focus Electric may be looking at a pretty substantial price cut. The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will drop the price of the all-electric by about $4,000 to $35,200 to be more competitive with the Nissan Leaf, which received a big price cut for 2013 down to $28,800.
Ford has already admitted to having low expectations for the car's sales and massive rebates were reported earlier in the year, but there is still no official word from Ford on this matter. The company's consumer site still lists the 2014 model's starting price as $39,200. In addition to the Leaf, the Focus Electric will also have to deal with the lower prices of smaller EVs including the Honda Fit EV, Fiat 500e and the Chevrolet Spark EV.

Hybrid, Plug-in Hybrid and EV Buyer's Guide: Which one do you want?

Fri, Nov 10 2017

If you're shopping for a new vehicle these days, there's a litany of acronyms, buzzwords, and technobabble to further complicate an already difficult decision. But if you're looking at a green powertrain, you have three basic choices to compare: hybrid, plug-in hybrid and "EV" or, electric vehicle. So what are they and which one — if any — is right for you? Research your next new vehicle using Autoblog's Car Finder. Gasoline-Electric Hybrids By now, most people are familiar with the concept of a hybrid car. Thank Toyota's Prius for that. At its most basic, a hybrid vehicle has two powertrains, one gasoline and one electric, which work together for maximum efficiency. At low speeds, the engine can shut off entirely, relying solely on the battery for propulsion. The battery is either charged as you drive by converting kinetic energy into potential energy via a complex regenerative braking system, or directly off of the gas motor. This is a very hands-off, behind-the-scenes system as all the driver has to is put in gas and drive as normal. Hybrids come in all shapes and sizes and, according to the EPA, range in fuel economy from 58 mpg for the Hyundai Ioniq Blue all the way down to 13 mpg for the Ferrari LaFerrari Aperta. Best For: Anyone who want to see their fuel consumption go down without many sacrifices. You can easily find a hybrid sedan, hatchback, crossover, SUV or even a pickup truck (i f you can find one). Best of all, a hybrid requires no special equipment to be installed at home, or added work for the driver. Hybrids do cost more than traditionally-powered competitors, so make sure to compare projected fuel savings with how much extra a hybrid will cost – it may take a surprisingly long time to break even. The EPA provides a handy calculator for this very purpose. Our Favorite Hybrids: 2017 Toyota Prius 2018 Hyundai Ioniq Hybrid 2017 Ford Fusion Hybrid Plug-In Hybrids Sometimes referred to as a PHEV, or plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, this is a baby-step towards full electrification. Armed with a much larger battery pack than a hybrid, PHEVs can go between 12 ( Mercedes-Benz GLE550e) and 97 ( BMW i3 w/Range Extender) miles on electricity alone depending on the model and your driving style. Like a normal hybrid, the driver is largely unaware of which power source is currently in use, even as they switch over — either because the battery is drained, or the driving circumstances require more power.
