This1998 Ford Ranger originated here in Western North Carolina. Purchased locally and owned by an elderly gentleman since new. I have had it for about a year. The miles are absolutely original and proven by NC Inspection Records and Carfax. The driver seat had a hole in it so I had both seats professionally reupholstered. I also had more padding placed in the seats for longlife wear. They were originally tan colored. These are the original seats just reupholstered. Recent entire clutch replacement (everything) to include new shocks. I had a 2" Leveling kit installed and placed those nice Kelly tires on it to give this ranger more ground clearence and a more aggressive appearence. The truck is very dependable has never let me down once. The transmission is strong and smooth and the 4X4 works perfectly. No oil leaks, no smoke and it drives like a truck with 50K miles on it. The engine compartment is clean. The interior is basically spotless. No cracks, rips or tears. Power steering and excellent brakes. The tires have probably less than 300 miles on them. The rims are after market to accomadate the larger tires. There is a good spare mounted underneath.
The A/C is very cold and the heat is very hot. I would not hesitate to drive this truck anywhere in the United States as is. This truck needs nothing but a new owner. The truck does have pings and scratches here and there. No major dents and no visible signs of rust anywhere. The under carriage looks good with no major rust issues or other concerns. The A/C for whatever reason occaisionally blows the air out of the defroster instead of the vents. The cabin is still very comfortable when it does do this. I am not aware of any issues with this truck. I would never intentionally sell anything without fully disclosing a major issue. This truck is not perfect by far, but it gets compliments everywhere it goes. it is clean, dependable and has a great history of being well cared for and adult owned. There is a matching camper top I had painted to match that goes with the truck if you want it. It is in great shape and very useful. The truck is located 20 minutes from Asheville NC in Waynesville. I am happy to accomadate anybody to make this as pleasureable as possible. I have bought and sold big ticket items on Ebay for over ten years. My feedback is perfect due to complete honesty. These trucks are getting harder to find in this condition with this mileage. You will not be disapointed. Please ask as many questions as you like. I am sellig to buy a family member a car. If you have a clean low mileage car I am certainly open to trading and will add money to the deal if need be.

2018 Ford Expedition spied looking stylish
Tue, Sep 6 2016The Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator got a cool reception for their 2015 warmed-over redesign. But with big, high-riding vehicles once again in vogue, Ford is pushing ahead with a ground-up redesign of its biggest SUVs. Based on these spy shots, the Expedition will continue to serve as the Navigator's more affordable twin. Yes, that's a bold prediction, considering we still haven't spotted Lincoln testing the new Navigator, but study the greenhouses on this Expedition prototype and the Navigator Concept from New York – from the arrow-straight belt line to the extra-long rear window to the aggressively raked windshield, this Expedition's overall profile is broadly similar to what Lincoln previewed earlier this year. While our spies claim the new Expedition will look to the F-150 for design inspiration, we see a departure from past Expedition tradition. Unlike the supposed Expedition spy shots we showed you nearly a year ago – which was nothing more than an SUV with an F-150's nose grafted on, this prototype's front-end styling looks softer and more aerodynamic, with a smaller grille and headlights, almost like an Escape or Edge. This kind of change would explain the additional front-end camouflage. In back, our spies rightly point out that Ford fitted a faux rear end to disguise the rear window's rake – expect the real thing to feature the angled rear window previewed on the Navigator Concept. Look at the last image in the gallery for a better idea of how the Expedition's rear window will actually look. We can't say a lot about the taillights, because of the camo, but non-LED taillights are present. We'd expect Ford to offer LEDs on higher trim levels. While the F-150's styling might not make the transition to the Expedition, its powertrains and emphasis on lightweight aluminum will. Our spies report the biggest SUV will ride on a new T3 platform and feature an aluminum body, with the F-150's 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6. Expect a ten-speed automatic transmission and start/stop tech for sure, while the smaller 2.7-liter, twin-turbo V6 could slot in as the Expedition's base engine – we're less sure on that one. And we're even more uncertain of the rumors of an Expedition Hybrid. Our spies report it could mate a 3.5-liter V6 with an electric motor(s) and battery packs for a more economical full-size SUV. Expect to see the 2018 Expedition debut in January, at the 2017 Detroit Auto Show.

Porsche 911 Turbo and Nissan GT-R Nismo star in World's Greatest Drag Race 4
Fri, 26 Sep 2014We love Motor Trend's annual World's Greatest Drag Race video. Now back for its fourth appearance, the idea of lining some of the world's fastest cars up for a ten-wide, straight-line, full-throttle run is, well... it's pretty freaking badass.
The lineup this year boasts some impressively fast cars to be sure. The group of ten includes the following darlings: Alfa Romeo 4C, BMW i8, BMW M4, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Ford Fiesta ST, Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, Nissan GT-R Nismo, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Subaru WRX STI and, last but not least, the Volkswagen GTI. Give us any one of those for the weekend, and we're happy to take the keys.
It must be said though, that for a publication that draws as much water as Motor Trend does, there are some big cars that we might expect to be here instead. The Lamborghini Huracán or Ferrari 458 Speciale would have added some exotic flare to the list, and the omissions of the Chevy Corvette Stingray (for the second year in a row) and the Dodge Challenger Hellcat are real head-scratchers.
