1995 Ford Ranger Splash Turbocharged Race/show Truck on 2040-cars
Tooele, Utah, United States
I've had it for almost 11 years and it has all the bells and whistles. It's time to go our separate ways.
It's been re done from the ground up. The engine came out of 1988 Ford Thunderbird Turbocoupe with 120K miles, the cylinder head has been redone and has a BOPORT 1.9 cam with all new hardware. Intake manifold is a 40BOB piece and has been powdercoated along with the majority of the parts in the engine bay. It has a 4" core front mount intercooler with 3" plumbing all powdercoated. Running 85 lbs/hr injectors with full MEGASQUIRT engine management. Has a Marc Bean full stainless center mount header with external wastegate running a one off, like new Holset HX35/40 turbo with a one off Garret housing. It has a 4.0 Explorer heavy duty radiator with a 16" electric fan. I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot of other things but the list keeps going. It has a 5.0 CANFIELD INDUSTRIES bellhousing adapter with a stage 2 5.0 clutch and pressure plate built by Exchange Auto parts in Salt Lake with a lightweight SPEC flywheel. Running an 88 Turbocoupe T5 transmission with full hydraulic slave and master. MGW short throw shifter with HURST shifter pistol grip. Rear axle is a fresh rebuilt 8.8 with limited slip and 4.56 gearing. Has Cal-Trac traction bars and XXR 18" wheels with almost new tires. I have a pair of M/T drag radials mounted up on steel wheels that I will include if paid full amount. The interior features full Autometer C2 instrumentation with wideband O2 sensor, pyrometer, boost gauge, oil pressure, oil temperature, coolant temperature, fuel presure and an analog oil pressure at the turbo. Has push button start and white face gauges. Also a one off center console piece with a TV screen molded in. Professionally done. On the backwall I have mounted the stereo and the Megasquirt control box with the relays. All connections were professionally soldered. Has 5% window tint and Dodge Neon SRT4 seats. Interior is in great shape. No tears. Carpet is spotless. The tailgate has been shaved and painted, along with one of the bedsides. The front end has all new paint and HID one piece headlights. Has a Xenon front air dam. I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot of the smalls details, but over the time I've owned this truck I have dumped all of my paychecks into it. Has well over 15K invested and that's being considerate. The front end has new balljoints and crossdrilled rotors with ceramic brake pads. The rear axle has been overhauled less than 5K miles ago. THE BAD - no heater or windshield wipers. VERY MINOR RUST on cab corners. Speedometer is innacurate because of the 4.56 gearing and the T5 transmission. Has very small rust holes at cab corners, I originally bought this truck from Ohio and drove it back, when it was bone stock. It runs great and it requires special attention. This is not a daily driver and as much as it has been modified, I don't see it becoming one. Here's a video of the build. http://youtu.be/MCJKjKsKjtk Truck is located in Tooele, Utah. Please inspect the pictures and I welcome calls or text from seriously interested parties (daytime only please) @ 435-830-0310. No test drives, no tire kickers. I am requesting a $150 deposit immediately after the auction ends to cover eBay and PayPal's fees. If you arrive to see the truck and it's not what I said and you complete the process through eBay to cancel the deal, I'll gladly refund the deposit. If you just do not show, the deposit will be used to cover the fees charged. |

Even Ford executives had issues with MyFord Touch
Fri, Oct 7 2016MyFord Touch is one of the auto industry's more controversial features. The media broadly panned the infotainment system developed with Microsoft for its slow responses and reliance on voice commands to navigate its deep menus. Oh, and Ford executives weren't big fans, either. Newly revealed court documents in a California class-action lawsuit demonstrate the level of venom Ford employees, both big and small, reserved for the Blue Oval's infotainment system. An error caused Bill Ford's navigation system to crash, leaving the family scion stuck on the side of the road in an unfamiliar area. The documents, unearthed by Forbes, detail current CEO Mark Fields' aggravations with MFT, too. A mechanic emailed an image of a cracked infotainment screen on an Edge to one of Ford's top Sync engineers, Kenneth Williams, suggesting "Mark Fields may have been a little aggravated with the system." But Ford and Fields' issues are nothing compared to the woes of the engineers that had to work on MFT. In a collection of emails obtained by Forbes, one engineer called the system "a polished turd," while another simply said, "These poor customers." And after one engineer suggested using a photo of Ford's Oakville Assembly Plant – home of the Edge, Flex, Lincoln MKX, and MKT production – as a background for the system, one of his coworkers said in an email that someone should instead Photoshop the image to read "abandon hope all ye who enter here," the Detroit News reports. Another summed up the problem, saying: "Ford's quality reputation is completely on the line ... another model year with the same crap is not acceptable." MyFord Touch almost single-handedly torpedoed Ford's reputation in widely reported quality metrics, including JD Power and Consumer Reports. Ford responded with a refreshed Sync3, a wildly improved rethink of its infotainment system that is far more responsive and easier to live with every day.

The next-generation wearable will be your car
Fri, Jan 8 2016This year's CES has had a heavy emphasis on the class of device known as the "wearable" – think about the Apple Watch, or Fitbit, if that's helpful. These devices usually piggyback off of a smartphone's hardware or some other data connection and utilize various onboard sensors and feedback devices to interact with the wearer. In the case of the Fitbit, it's health tracking through sensors that monitor your pulse and movement; for the Apple Watch and similar devices, it's all that and some more. Manufacturers seem to be developing a consensus that vehicles should be taking on some of a wearable's functionality. As evidenced by Volvo's newly announced tie-up with the Microsoft Band 2 fitness tracking wearable, car manufacturers are starting to explore how wearable devices will help drivers. The On Call app brings voice commands, spoken into the Band 2, into the mix. It'll allow you to pass an address from your smartphone's agenda right to your Volvo's nav system, or to preheat your car. Eventually, Volvo would like your car to learn things about your routines, and communicate back to you – or even, improvise to help you wake up earlier to avoid that traffic that might make you late. Do you need to buy a device, like the $249 Band 2, and always wear it to have these sorts of interactions with your car? Despite the emphasis on wearables, CES 2016 has also given us a glimmer of a vehicle future that cuts out the wearable middleman entirely. Take Audi's new Fit Driver project. The goal is to reduce driver stress levels, prevent driver fatigue, and provide a relaxing interior environment by adjusting cabin elements like seat massage, climate control, and even the interior lighting. While it focuses on a wearable device to monitor heart rate and skin temperature, the Audi itself will use on-board sensors to examine driving style and breathing rate as well as external conditions – the weather, traffic, that sort of thing. Could the seats measure skin temperature? Could the seatbelt measure heart rate? Seems like Audi might not need the wearable at all – the car's already doing most of the work. Whether there's a device on a driver's wrist or not, manufacturers seem to be developing a consensus that vehicles should be taking on some of a wearable's functionality.
