Ford F-250 Xlt - Camper Special on 2040-cars
Marshall, Washington, United States
1972 Ford Ranger F-250 XLT Camper Special I purchased this truck in 2009 - since then I've put less than 1,500 miles on it - it has been stored in a heated and insulated garage and seen only fair weather. It is extremely rare to find an original vintage truck in this condition with such low mileage - a classic vehicle can be original only once - this one can be driven every day anywhere, any distance and do it without any issues - it is a beautifully presented survivor ready for the next collector to enjoy - I'm the 3rd owner - and only selling because life dictates that my toys must go due to fatherly responsibilities. The previous owner bought the truck from his high school girl-friend's father, he had always coveted the truck - it was used once a year to drive up into the mountains around Salt Lake City and camp, it had a camper installed in the bed for many years - it was used only for that purpose from 1972 until 1993 - in 21 years the truck had been driven approximately 31,000 miles. This is what the 2nd owner had to say about the truck when I purchased it:"This truck is very clean and un-restored. I purchased the truck form the original owner 5 years ago (2004) and at that time the truck had just over 31k miles on it and hadn’t been driven since 1993. When I purchased the truck the engine was stock, I installed the new cam, lifters, true-roller timing set, intake, 4-bbl, headers and new exhaust. The upgrades greatly improved the trucks performance and overall drivability. It has had the hood repainted (original paint faded) and has had the passenger door repaired. There are a few places that have had very minor paint touch up work, all done by the original owner."1972 F-250 - rear wheel drive45,680 milesRanger XLT - Camper SpecialSequoia Brown Metallic - Wimbledon WhiteGVW 8100390 V-8C-6 auto-transDana 60 4.10Production date: 7/72Wheel base: 131Color: MRModel: F253Body: U 4 Trans: GAxle: 24Max GVW: 8100Cert net: 163RPM: 3600DSO: 73The factory 390 has a Reactor cam that was designed to increase low-end torque and throttle response in low compression engines.Ford cast iron “S”-intakeHolley 600 CFMHedman HeddersMagnaflow muffler3” single exhaustDual batteriesTransmission coolerTruly one of a kind Surely the best un-restored 1972 Ford F-250 you’ll ever find. It is rust free, drives and runs exceptionally well; it is completely road ready down to the brand new CenterLine Forged aluminum wheels and Kumho Tires that have less than 1,500 miles on them. All of the belts, hoses and ignition parts are Motorcraft including the oil filter. When I purchased this truck 5 years ago it still retained the factory installed spark plug wires. All four original shocks were replaced in 2008. The truck has a unique non-factory spare tire lift system that was built by the original owner.

2015 Ford Edge Sport [w/video]
Thu, Apr 23 2015The Edge is easy to overlook, especially in Ford's prolific stable of sport utility vehicles. But thanks to new engines, upscale sheet metal and fresh technologies, the Edge has renewed swagger for 2015. Outfitted in the Sport trim, which included the feisty 315-horsepower EcoBoost V6, a stiffer suspension, and unique fascias, my Edge was loaded, and it was priced accordingly. With options, including all-wheel drive, it cost $46,180, which is pretty lofty for a Ford Edge. But, you get a lot of stuff here – features like leather-accented seats, a lane-departure warning system, and active park assist – that make your life more comfortable and safer. It's been a while since I've driven an Edge. And unless you own one, it's probably been a while since you've even thought about an Edge. Now there's good reason to take another look. Driving Notes I really liked the interior. It was simple, clean, and done up in black. It served as a fitting backdrop for the colorful gauges and the Sync with MyFord Touch infotainment system. The interior designers added silver plastic trim and contrasting white stitching on the center console and door inserts to break up the darkness. Leather was used for the steering wheel wrap, door inserts, and console cover, and it conveyed a premium feel. The leather-trimmed seats with suede inserts were comfortable. They looked elegant and felt pleasing. The heating and cooling features were useful for springtime driving and its varied temperatures. The vista sunroof was spectacular. It let in plenty of sunlight and opened long and wide like a retractable stadium roof. Even closed, it still offered a panoramic view of the sky for my passengers, especially those in the second row. Another note on the interior: I had an excellent driving position and an elevated view of the road. When rain began to fall – which has a way of frazzling motorists – I turned up Cat Stevens and motored along blithely. My second-row passengers were also comfy. One remarked on the ample leg- and headroom, and everyone liked the ambient lighting. The cargo area, which offered 39.2 cubic feet of space behind the second row (7 cubic feet more than the previous version), was more than capable for a weekend grocery run. I'll admit, I'm a Luddite when it comes to infotainment systems, and Sync with MyFord Touch has a mixed reputation. Historically, it's been confusing and hasn't always worked as advertised.
2015 Shelby GT350 Mustang sounds racy as it revs [UPDATE]
Thu, May 21 2015UPDATE: It seems as though the GT350 exhaust was just too hot for YouTube. The video has been removed, as you can see. We'll keep combing the Interwebs for a new version. If you're somehow still on the fence about the 2015 Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang, then this video should provide some healthy encouragement about the new coupe. There's no high-speed action here, but you get to experience the wonderful sound of the GT350's 5.2-liter V8 with a flat-plane crankshaft start up, idle and throw some revs. At a twist of the key, the engine barks to attention, and a wonderfully crisp shriek comes from the exhaust when the driver blips the throttle. The GT350 even has a growly baritone at idle. According to the YouTube description, this car was on hand at the Carroll Shelby Tribute and Car Show in Gardena, CA. Unfortunately, videos online might be the best chance for many people to hear the wail of the latest GT350 for now. Ford is only building a total of 137 of them for the 2015 model year, but the numbers should pick up when the 2016 model year begins in just a few months.
