The most radical, jaw dropping 1930 Model A Tudor sedan rat rod for sale by owner! This one of a kind machine is a Florida registered, street legal, full custom bad ass ride. Whether driving or layed out, this 4 wheeled beast constantly demands the attention of onlookers and always creates an audience. This car makes people waste their cell phone storage with car selfies and videos, and may cause accidents from rubber-neckers stunned at the sight of this phenomenon. If you’re lucky enough to be the highest bidder on this Wicked ride, your lady will get jealous that the car will get more attention than her! This was built originally at a very prestigious shop in California. That rat rod look with the dependability and fine engineering of a hot rod.  Body is original Henry Ford Steel – chopped, channeled, boxed, Z'd frame with sweet patina and cleverly themed pinstriping. This car features full airride, allowing you to lay it out for show or lift for easy driving. This car also features a big block 500ci Cadillac engine, and is better than your standard 350 seen in most typical rat rods. The motor compliments the build of the body and is perfectly proportioned.  New steel wheels with brand new repop vintage radio  white wall tires make for a smooth ride, and disk brakes up front with drum brakes in the rear make it stop on point. Easy steering, seat belts, open headers, aluminum radiator, and of course functioning gauges, break lights, and turn signals makes this car a complete package. Car has a nicely concealed roll bar, battery compartment, and a battery shut off. This phenomenal car runs great, drives great, and shows very well! There's also an almost endless list of eclectic bolted on and welded goodies to stare at like the unique skeleton hookah shifter, custom made banjo steering wheel, vintage house door handle plates, drive shaft cage, light-up skull license plate topper, and radiator fluid bottles. This unique car is a cut above the rest, inside and out, with silver leaf lettering and vintage license plate floors.

If you want heads to turn, this ride is the answer to your Wicked Wayz.

Ford forced to recall Escape over fire risk yet again

Tue, 26 Nov 2013

Recalls happen. Automakers hope they won't, but they do. And that's alright, for the most part, because cars are designed (and to a large degree still made) by humans, and humans make mistakes. So we forgive them, as long as the problem is resolved. Only in the case of the Ford Escape, the problem seems to keep coming back.
That's why Ford is calling in the Escape yet again due to fire concerns. The issue revolves around problematic fuel lines in 9,469 units manufactured between October 5, 2011, and July 11, 2012, all of which use the 1.6-liter EcoBoost inline four-cylinder engine.
As you yourself may recall, the Escape was subject to a string of recalls last year that resulted in a $17 million fine. One of them was over this very same issue, which Ford apparently didn't rectify the first time around. Let's hope this time is the last time.

Ken Block hoons his Ford F-150 RaptorTrax on the slopes

Wed, 08 Oct 2014

Ken Block drives Fords. Hoons the heck out of 'em, actually. Mostly Fiestas, but also the occasional Focus or Mustang. But earlier this year, the Gymkhana guru revealed his baddest Ford yet: an F-150 SVT Raptor on tracks. And true to form, here he is putting it to the test in the latest video from Monster Energy and Hoonigan Racing.
Filmed at Baldface Lodge in Nelson, BC, the video pairs Block up with snowboarders Zak Hale and Ethan Deiss for some deep-powder action. You'll want to watch the video for yourself, but the bottom line is that the RaptorTrax beats the heck out of waiting on line for the ski lift. It's enough to make us start to look forward to winter... almost.

Big electric trucks won't save the planet, says the NYT

Tue, Feb 21 2023

When The New York Times decides that an issue is an issue, be prepared to read about it at length. Rarely will a week passes these days when the esteemed news organization doesn’t examine the realities, myths and alleged benefits and drawbacks of electric vehicles, and even The Atlantic joins in sometimes. That revolution, marked by changes in manufacturing, consumer habits and social “consciousness,” may in fact be upon us. Or it may not. Nonetheless, the newspaper appears committed to presenting to the public these pros and cons. In this recently published article titled, “Just How Good for the Planet Is That Big Electric Pickup Truck?”—wow, thatÂ’s a mouthful — the Times focuses on the “bigness” of the current and pending crop of EVs, and how that impacts or will impact the environment and road safety. This is not what news organizations these days are fond of calling “breaking news.” In October, we pointed to an essay in The Atlantic that covered pretty much the same ground, and focused on the Hummer as one particular villain, In the paper and online on Feb. 18, the Times' Elana Shao observes how “swapping a gas pickup truck for a similar electric one can produce significant emissions savings.” She goes on: “Take the Ford F-150 pickup truck compared with the electric F-150 Lightning. The electric versions are responsible for up to 50 percent less greenhouse gas emissions per mile.” But she right away flips the argument, noting the heavier electric pickup trucks “often require bigger batteries and more electricity to charge, so they end up being responsible for more emissions than other smaller EVs. Taking into consideration the life cycle emissions per mile, they end up just as polluting as some smaller gas-burning cars.” Certainly, itÂ’s been drummed into our heads that electric cars donÂ’t run on air and water but on electricity that costs money, and that the public will be dealing with “the shift toward electric SUVs, pickup trucks and crossover vehicles, with some analysts estimating that SUVs, pickup trucks and vans could make up 78 percent of vehicle sales by 2025." No-brainer alert: Big vehicles cost more to charge. And then thereÂ’s the safety question, which was cogently addressed in the Atlantic story. Here Shao reiterates data documenting the increased risks of injuries and deaths caused by larger, heavier vehicles.
