Please read all of description! I have a very detailed description so all bidders including out of state buyers have a fair shot at buying with confidence. Must sell this week. NO RESERVE I am selling my 1996 Ford Ranger XLT Extended Cab 2 door pickup truck. It has been in our family for at least 5 years. I bought it from my father in law. I used it as a 2nd vehicle until my daughter needed a vehicle. She drove it her last 2 years in college. She got a new car upon graduating college, so I got my truck back again. It has been great to have around. From hauling trash,picking up lumber or what ever, it served its purpose. I bought a full sized 4x4 4door truck so we have decided to sell it. I will describe it as well as I can.

It still has a lot of life left. I hate to sell it because it's always handy to have a truck around that your not worried about getting a door ding or a scratch on. I just can't justify having 2 trucks. Keep in mind this truck is 18 years old. It's not without any issues. If you are looking for a show truck or one with no issues keep looking, but if you want a truck that will get you from point a to point b and still have a decent look to it without breaking the budget this may work for you. Perfect for a construction worker, a young person that wants a truck with good bones that they can make their own or a reliable truck just to have around.

The Good: V6 automatic, xtra cab, power equipment-still works! Alloy wheels,decent tires, A/C is cold,stereo works well. Body in good shape, no rust or damage. Bucket seats no rips or tears. New battery, New windshield (replaced because of rock chip that spread)

The not so good: check engine light and abs light come on periodically. (Has done it since day 1) Doesn't affect the drivability so I never addressed it. Headliner material has splits in several places. The black and white plastic controls on the steering wheel have come off over time. The cruise control still works though. The top surface,(paint) mainly the hood is getting that crow feet look. If you're 5 feet away it looks great. There are scratches here and there, the largest one on the drivers side. Nothing you wouldn't expect a truck over 15 years old to have. The speedometer works fine. The odometer does not. I am selling it to have true miles unknown. I do not know when it stopped working all together. We would change the oil and filter every 4 months. We didn't put very many miles on it so we serviced it based on time.

I am putting the truck up for auction at No Reserve. Bid to win! I am marketing the vehicle locally for $3500. If you want to buy it now for that price I reserve the right to end the auction early. I need to sell it in the next week so act quickly. Good luck and thanks for bidding.

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.

Bacon-wrapped Ford Fiesta hams it up for International Bacon Day

Wed, 28 Aug 2013

This is a bacon-wrapped Ford Fiesta. It is a real thing, that a real, multi-billion-dollar company designed. And it isn't even April Fools' Day. Designed for International Bacon Day, which is also apparently a thing, the 2014 Fiesta is finished in Green Envy paint - we're told black paint, like the color of a skillet, made the car look camouflaged - and features 10 gigantic decals depicting strips of tender, cured bacon.
The design, which was approved by the CEO of Benton's Country Hams, Allan Benton, show off the depth of Ford's Custom Graphics program. Unbelievably, Ford will actually start offering bacon decals to everyday customers, including (and we can't believe we're writing this) dual bacon racing stripes which will no doubt have Carroll Shelby spinning and/or salivating in his grave, and a "side of bacon," which wraps a couple of strips over the rear wheels.
Benton, who Ford claims is the King of Bacon, had this to say: "This car just makes so much sense." The Fiesta's marketing manager, Liz Elser added, "It's just awesome to drive down the road in a piece of bacon."

Swedish car mag says Ford Mondeo is dangerously, illegally overweight [w/video]

Thu, Dec 18 2014

Sweden's Teknikens Varld has a reputation for being very persnickety when it comes to auto safety testing, and its latest catch is the Mondeo Titanium Estate 2.0 TDCi 150 bhp S6 MPS (basically a station wagon variant of the Fusion). In addition to the model's mile-long name, it has another problem according to the Swedes, because its weight on the scales does not equal the official numbers for the vehicle. Teknikens Varld claims the wagon is dangerously overweight because it weighs in 4,145 pounds, while Ford officially lists its weight at 3,530 pounds. That 615-pound disparity means that if a family loads it to what they think is the model's gross vehicle weight, it will actually be too heavy, and therefore illegal to drive in Sweden. According to the magazine, when it tried doing this, the rear wheels scraped against the wells, and the estate failed the mag's legendary moose test. However, at 220 pounds over the limit, it passed the test. When reached for comment by Autoblog, Jay Ward, Senior Manager at Ford of Europe Product Communications, explained the reason for the deviation between the official numbers and the magazine's test: "We are aware of this, but this is not an issue that relates specifically to the safety of the Mondeo, but is in fact related to the way in which the cars are tested by the authorities. We provided an Ambiente model for the testing but the car that featured in the magazine test was a Titanium model which has a different weight. We are in discussion with the Swedish Transport Agency to change the framework so the real weight of the Titanium model is reported instead of the Ambiente model which will resolve the issue." Teknikens Varld is well-known for calling out automakers for perceived transgressions. Most recently it leveled criticisms against the all-wheel drive system in the Honda CR-V, and both the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Porsche Macan failed its moose test.

Mondeo weighs 279 kg more than Ford claims. With big load (ie family plus luggage) the car therefore becomes illegal to drive.
