!965 Ford 1 Ton F-350 2nd Owner on 2040-cars
Palisade, Colorado, United States
I`ve had this workhorse 22 years. It mostly sat around or hauled light loads.since 1992. Recently sent the carb out for reman (Autolite 1100) Fuel pump & filter, 180 deg thermostat & iron housing, Water pump, Radiator hose & cap, heater hoses, battery, ignition key & lock, new clutch spring, cleaned gastank & line. Topped off tranny, tires & differential. Greased the driveline ball joints & kingpins. Fresh oil change & fram filter. restored oilbath air cleaner. The radiator was replaced with an exact replacement from Modine (oem supplier I`m told) back in the 90`s and it remains in excellent undamaged condition. Can`t call it new, but it sure looks it.
There`s no pumping the gas pedal or choking/ unchoking it, You just barely flick the key & it starts & purrs. It`s jetted & set for 5000 feet altitude. Motor is a 150 horse 240 cubic inch straight 6. Runs excellently. Trans is a New Process np435 4 speed with a super low granny gear. Differential is a Dana 70 that`s geared at I believe a 5.87:1 ratio so top end is mid to upper 50`s mph range while low end pulling power is impressive. 7.50x 16 wheels & tires, 7 of `em. The 9 ft flatbed with header & sides was made in December `64 so I`m sure it`s been on it since day one. It has factory overload springs and can haul way more than a ton. Carb & engine block still have their original tags. I watch ebay for trucks like these and see maybe 3 if that, in any given year. So either they`re rare or the people that have `em aren`t parting with them. They hardly ever come up for sale. Unlike the 1/2 & 3/4 ton pickups this one has the large inner fenders and wheel well openings and the battery compartment under the foor. You see this on factory 4wd & one ton trucks only. The upholstery needs repadded & a new cover, headliners not great, could use a windshield & rubber mounting. But the body looks to be rust free. I have a free & clear Colorado title in hand. I named her "Betty Ford" because she`s a tough ol` gal. Neither Betty is any kind of lightweight & this one just came out of rehab !

Amazon looking to bring Kindle to your next car?
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Maybe so. The online retailer and digital media monolith recently announced the Amazon Cloud Player, an application for Ford Sync that allows users to stream media from their Amazon Cloud account directly to a Ford vehicle. This foray into automotive technology got the minds at Gigaom.com thinking about what could be next for Amazon. As Kevin Fitchard writes, the logical step is to make audio versions of your Kindle library selections available in your car. As he points out, Amazon has already laid the groundwork for such a move.
Amazon pulled the sheets back on Whispersync for Voice last year. The tech pairs ebooks with an Audible book for a small extra fee, allowing users to either read along with a narrator or switch between audio and text versions on command. Fitchard says it wouldn't be some great leap to apply the same principles to a car, where voice recognition software would allow users to pause or select chapters without ever taking their eyes off of the road.
It all sounds just fine to us, but Amazon hasn't said a thing about such a move. Still, we wouldn't be surprised to see the company come down this road in the near future just the same.

Watch these Australian Ford and Holden muscle cars duke it out
Wed, 21 Aug 2013Australia's Motoring has put together a little video on two of the great performance vehicles available down under - the Holden VF Commodore HSV GTS and the Ford Falcon FPV GT R-Spec. And while both FPV and the Falcon might be on their way out, there's still plenty of time for a little head-to-head comparison between the two.
The cars aren't all that well evenly matched, though. The Ford boasts a 5.0-liter, supercharged V8, which the Aussies measure out at 449 horsepower and 420 pound-feet of torque. The HSV, though, with its Corvette-derived, 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 is just too powerful - 576 hp and 545 lb-ft of torque.
Predictably, it doesn't end too well for the Ford. As the guys from Motoring point out, the new VF Commodore is just too new and too good, with its extra power and its adaptive dampers (GM's excellent MagnaRide). Interestingly, Motoring did point out that the Holden's electric steering is better than the Ford's hydraulic steering, which is a lot like a Porsche purist saying they prefer water-cooled engines to air cooled.
