Hello. you are looking at a package deal on two Ford Ranger extended cab 4X4 trucks. One is a 1987, the other a 1988. They are both identical trucks, Both run good with the 2.9L V6 engines and both have the 5 speed manual transmissions. I had bought the 1988 (the grey silver) truck first, and what it needs to be functional is a transmission. When you let out the clutch, it grinds really bad, sounds like a bad bearing. The drivers side of the box is caved in on it. Other than these issues, the truck runs really nice. Its a very clean solid truck for the age. I also have included in the auction but not pictured a stepside box from a newer later 90s style Ranger that I was going to put on this truck and paint it. With a bit of TLC, youd have one nice clean older truck that would make a fine driver for a long time. The other truck, the blue one is a 1987 That is really rusty and ruff. It runs and drives good, and was recently tuned up . I am driving this truck back and forth to work everyday, and it drives fine. Everything works on it, except the heater core is bad. I have a brand new heater core that goes with it. I had origionally bought the 1987 to use as a parts truck for the 1988, to take the trans out, and make one nice truck out of the two. WHen I drove the 1987 home It drove so nice, I figgured why part it down, so, I decided to put it on the road and run it for a while. The 1987 truck is quite ruff, The body is shot on it, the frame has a crack in it, but there is a patch welded over it, the windshield is good, and it runs and goes down the road rather well. The doors dont open or shut very well. There is a 1988 Factory Manual that goes with both trucks, a Chiltons book, and a Haynes book with the 2. Also new heater core, and a new set of front and rear shoes as well. So, In this auction you get a 1988 Ford Ranger extended cab 4X4 that just needs a transmission to be driveable, a 1987 Ford Ranger 4X4 thats ruff but can be driven as is, and a stepside box from a late 90s Ranger as well as some repair manuals, and a few spare goodies. There is a lot to work with here. If you have any questions, please call or text Chris at 810-656-7496. My starting bid is my lowest price I will take for the pair. I will not separate, it all goes as one lot. I have both trucks for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early. Both trucks have clear Michigan titles. Payment in full is due within 7 days of auction end, no exceptions. I will continue to drive the 1987 Ranger untill auction has ended. Buyer has 90 Days to pick up the trucks after auction end. If you pay by check or Money order, Trucks are not to leave untill the check or money order clears my bank. You are buying both as is. Trucks are in Silverwood, Mi. 48760. An hour and a half north of Detroit. Thanks for looking, please see my other auctions. No sales outside the USA please God Bless.

Ford Fusion getting substantial refresh for 2017

Wed, 13 Aug 2014

It's only been a couple of years since Ford rolled out the current Fusion, but if these spy shots are anything to go by, it's already planning what appears to be a substantial update for the mid-size sedan.
According to our paparazzi on the ground, the new Fusion is being prepared for launch late in 2016 or early 2017. Although heavily camouflaged to keep it from prying eyes such as ours, it appears that the updated Fusion will tone down the Aston Martin-style grille, ditch the small corner window with revised front side glass and tweak the vehicle's overall shape. But there's more to the new Fusion than a styling adjustment, and our spy photographers have caught a glimpse inside and taken us along.
Apparently the new Fusion is to get a completely overhauled interior with soft-touch surfaces and matte wood trim to make it seem more upscale. There's an all-new rotary gear selector (like you'd find on a Jaguar, for example) hinting at the implementation of a new nine-speed automatic transmission. The prototype appears to be packing the Microsoft SYNC system, suggesting that the new Blackberry QNX system isn't ready quite yet - though that doesn't necessarily mean it won't be ready by the time the new Fusion is.

Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th

Tue, 15 Apr 2014

It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.

Has the auto industry hit peak hybrid?

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

Hybrids are known for their great fuel economy and low emissions, but it looks like given current market conditions, only about three percent of new car consumers are willing to pay the premium for them. A new study from IHS/Polk finds that the hybrid market share among overall US auto sales are falling, despite more models with the technology on sale than ever before.
The study examined new car registrations in March from 2009 through 2014. In that time, the auto industry grew from 24 to 47 hybrid models available to consumers, but market share for the powertrain remained almost stagnant in that time. As of 2009, hybrids held 2.4 percent of the market; it fell slightly to 2.3 percent in 2010 and grew to 3.3 percent in 2013. However, 2014 showed a drop back to 3 percent. Overall hybrid sales have been growing since 2010, but they just aren't keeping up with the total auto market.
According to IHS/Polk, this isn't what you would expect to see. Usually, each new model in the market brings along with it a boost in sales. The growth in hybrid models 2009 to 2014 should have shown a larger increase in share for the segment.
