1970 Ford F250 Camper Special Barn Find on 2040-cars
Catonsville, Maryland, United States
Selling my 1970 Ford F250. I purchased this truck from the second owner around 2008 with the intentions to restore. I need the garage space back and I know I will never find the time to work on it. A little history on the truck, The original owner Mr Beegle purchased this truck brand new from Will Stuckey Ford in Holidaysburg Pa. I was told he purchased the truck to go camping with his wife after his retirement. Around 1990 Mr Beegle passed away and a family friend that always admired the truck purchased it from his estate. I do not believe the truck was used that much after that. It just sat in his barn in storage. Unfortunantly the barn roof leaked causing much of the bed rust. The last time the truck was tagged was around 2005. The truck does run and drive but has no brakes, so it must be trailered. I put some fresh gas in it and a battery and the 360 started right up. It does smoke when running and smells like old gas. It should clear up after all the old gas is run out of the tanks. Please look at all the pictures, this truck is not perfect and is not something that you can get in and drive home. Heres some of the bad.... Needs brake work, the passenger side window regulator will need replaced, has body rust, drivers side mirror is broken, passenger side mirror was removed but will be included, the air horns shown in the engine compartment pics are not included with the truck. also keeping the stainless steel hub caps. Now the good.. The interior of the truck is near mint with no tears or cracks in the seat, still smells new. cab is near perfect with exception to the door bottoms that have some rust, other than that there is no rust in the cab mounts or rain gutters etc. Please examine the pictures and ask questions. Just realize this truck is not perfect and should be gone through before putting it on the road Sold AS-IS!!

Ford recalls 1.9m cars and crossovers for defective airbags
Wed, Jun 1 2016The Basics: Ford is recalling a total of 1,898,728 vehicles to replace defective Takata front passenger-side airbags.

2020 Ford Escape hybrids vs other crossover fuel sippers: How they compare on paper
Wed, Apr 3 2019Along with a new generation of Escape, Ford also reintroduced the world to the 2020 Ford Escape Hybrid. And if that weren't enough, Ford is adding a plug-in hybrid version. This is a sign of the times: people are more crossover crazy than ever, but are also seeking ways to use less fuel, whether it's for environmental or purely money-motivated reasons. The Ford hybrids aren't the only fuel-efficient compact crossovers on the market. They will be going head-to-head with conventional hybrids including the 2019 Kia Niro, 2019 Nissan Rogue Hybrid and 2019 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. There are other plug-in hybrids including the 2019 Subaru Crosstrek PHEV, 2019 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV and the plug-in version of the 2019 Kia Niro. There are even a couple diesels in the form of the 2019 Chevy Equinox and 2019 GMC Terrain. So we've rounded up the details on all these crossovers to see who leads and lags in criteria such as power, fuel efficiency, space and price. Check out all their details below. 2019 Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid View 68 Photos How do their engines and fuel economy compare? Conventional Hybrids and Diesels Let's face it, if you're buying one of these crossovers, one of the things that matters most to you is just how frugal with fuel they are. We'll start off with the conventional hybrids and diesels, and the clear victor is the Kia Niro, which in base FE trim, manages to hit 50 mpg combined. This is thanks to it sharing its powertrain with the Hyundai Ioniq, the Hyundai equivalent of the Toyota Prius. Buyers should take note that only the FE returns such high fuel economy. The LX and EX drop to 49 mpg, and the S Touring and Touring get 43. Even then, the least efficient Niro is the most efficient of the normal hybrids and diesels. It is nearly the least powerful, though, with 139 horsepower. Just behind it is the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. It delivers 40 mpg combined, and it has an ace up its sleeve: it comes standard with all-wheel drive. Every other vehicle in this powertrain group has front drive standard, and the Niro isn't available with all-wheel drive at all. If that weren't enough, the RAV4 Hybrid also boasts the most power at 219 horses. While we can't say anything about Escape Hybrid fuel economy, we do know that it will make 198 horsepower, which is close to the class-leading RAV4. The least powerful of these is the Equinox and Terrain, and they return the worst fuel economy at 32 mpg.
Automakers donating money, vehicles and supplies to Oklahoma tornado relief effort
Fri, 24 May 2013Judging by the destruction the Oklahoma City area experienced earlier this week, residents are going to need a lot of help in coming months. Fortunately, a number of automakers - including General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Volkswagen, Honda and Toyota - have stepped up to donate money, supplies and vehicles to aid in the recovery and rebuilding processes.
Here's a quick rundown of which automakers have pitched in and what each contributed so far:
Ford Motor Company has donating $250,000 and a Transit Connect to the American Red Cross, and it will match all other donations made to the Red Cross (up to $250,000) using a special URL tied to the latter's website (link here). Additionally, its local Oklahoma dealers have thrown in an extra $150,000 for the United Way and the automaker will be offering an extra $500 toward the purchase of a new Ford vehicle.
