I needed a truck. Bought one. Now I need to sell my car. This has been my daily for the last 2 1/2 years. The car has been maintained to a high standard and as proven to be extremely reliable. The undercarriage is quite rust-free, the rear quarters being the only area of rust-through. I removed the entire front end and painted/coated the entire area when I bought the car. I also replaced the entire brake system, radiator, heater core and repaired any item that was not functioning to factory standard. All fluids were changed within a week of purchase.

Factory options include the 170 cid Six, Ford-O-Matic, heater, electric wipers with washers and Deluxe package.

The interior remains largely as bought, and is complete, with the addition of carpet, sound deadening, and a modern stereo (hidden in the glovebox) with 4 speakers. No original panels were cut. The front seat is covered, due to deterioration. The rear seat has a rip on the upper bolster, left side. The headliner came part at the rear, and is therefore 1/3 missing. The trunk is solid, still retains the original mat, though it is not perfect, and quite hard, actually, yet it IS there. The spare tire and tools are present and properly restrained. There are 8 tires with the car, 4 highway tires and four snow tires. only five rims, however.

The car is still in use, and I use it for the long-distance runs I make to Princeton occasionally (200 miles round trip). It runs perfectly, stops straight and true, is in alignment, and has remained very, very reliable. The 170 is quite peppy, the automatic no handicap, and highway speeds are no problem (I do stay near the speed limit [65 or 70], don't need tickets).

To sum up, I believe this is a very drivable car, with the usual cosmetic issues of an older car. However, this particular one has fair low miles (67,xxx) and has been cared-for it's entire existence. I would rate the car 'good', yet my "good" may not be your 'good'. It is recommended that you inspect the car prior to purchase.

If you are wondering if the car is capable of long-distance travel, the answer is Yes. I will not, however, deliver the car. Payment is expected at the close of auction, or very near after. Storage for any longer than a week may prove problematical, as they are preparing to tear-up my street.

Thank you.

Wrap up some fun with Ford's commercial vehicle configurator

Tue, 27 Aug 2013

Ford has combined multiple steps into one with its commercial vehicle configurator, which allows users to choose, design and place orders for the Transit, Transit Connect, E-Series vans and F-Series Super Duty trucks.
The most interesting part of the new configurator is a fairly robust design tool. Users are able to choose paint color and wrap the vehicle, and then create their own graphics. No materials are needed - Ford provides numerous background textures, text boxes, plenty of shapes and 20 categories of images including floral, construction, plumbing and skylines. Self-created designs or images can be uploaded to the system as well.
We played around with the design tool a bit and uploaded our own image to create the Autoblog Podcast Live van you see here. Feel free to check out the configurator and make your own design.

Ford files trademark for 'EcoBeast' moniker

Mon, Dec 29 2014

Ford has done some performance stuff with its EcoBoost line of vehicles, most notably with its Focus and Fiesta ST, the new, turbocharged Mustang and the luke-warm Taurus SHO and F-150 Tremor, but it's kind of avoided going wholly bonkers. That could be set to change quite soon, judging by a trademark filing with Uncle Sam. Ford has registered the name EcoBeast with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, listing it as "automobiles and automobile engines," according to the team at Motorlix, which discovered the filing. As always, it bears mentioning that companies are constantly filing trademarks, even if a good or service never emerges with said name. We agree with Motorlix, though – it seems highly unlikely Ford is going to just let this name languish. What vehicle or engine will wear this new badge is the real question. We're leaning towards something F-150 related, based on our last round of spy photos of the new SVT Raptor, although it's impossible to say for certain what the Blue Oval has planned. Here's hoping we find out in just a few weeks when Ford brings basically all of its performance merchandise to the 2015 Detroit Auto Show. Until then, let us know what you think Ford is planning with the EcoBeast.
