 1998 FORD RANGER EV. FACTORY ALL ELECTRIC VEHICLE. I purchased this vehicle in July 2011. The truck had its original 39 8volt batteries and did not run. In January 2012 I replaced the batteries with 26 group 31, 100 amp hour batteries using the spoof method found on www.fordrangerev.com. the batteries were larger so I placed 9 in the bed using a custom bracket. The factory charger was not working so I replaced it with a Elcon ev charger that works on 110 or 220 using a adapter. After getting the truck working properly I set out to make it unique. I purchased a 2003 ranger edge and transferred the bed, bumpers, grill, hood and mirrors. Then I had it wrapped with lightning graphics. I also added a bed cover, f150 side steps, custom wheels and tires and a light bar. I took the truck to 1 ev car show in Orlando in 2012. It was the talk of the show as most have never seen or heard of a factory electric ranger. Not even the guys from ford showing their Focus. Since then I have driven it about 2500 miles. They way I have it set up I reset the computer with the NGS and the gauge reads 39 miles to empty. roughly half charge. I then drive it 35-40 miles then just plug it in a regular 110 outlet and let it charge overnight and reset again. This keeps the batteries from being run down more than half way. The truck runs and drives great and a/c is cold. It does not have any warning lights or codes. intermittently it will buck when braking and the brake light will come for a few miles after a full charge. I believe this is caused by higher than normal voltage from the larger batteries not allowing the motor to regenerate. After using up some of the battery it is smooth. I also have a factory battery pack jack from the dealer along with several charging stations and a additional factory battery charger if you want to put it back to factory charging. All these parts are used and I have no way to test them to see if they work. Everything I have for this truck is included in the sale. I have had fun with this truck but it is time to let someone else have fun with it. I am now looking for another project. The exterior is in great shape although the wrap job is not perfect. The interior is mint. You wont be disappointed. I have over 20k invested. I am also interested in trade for car, truck, boat, plane, guns ????. anything of value.

Autoblog joins Elon Musk and Danica Patrick in accepting ALS Ice Bucket Challenge

Tue, 19 Aug 2014

Unless you've been living in an off-the-grid cabin in the woods for the last couple of weeks or abstain entirely from social media activities, you've probably seen someone you know dump a bucket of ice and water over their own head recently. While the origins of the so-called Ice Bucket Challenge are shrouded in a history typical of Internet memes, its effectiveness in raising money and awareness for the ALS Association has been astonishing.
Celebrities from the worlds of entertainment, sports, technology and more have generated untold millions of video views in support of the organization that is helping patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS, better known as Lou Gehrig's Disease), and generated a much needed influx of cash, as well. Recent reports have some $15.6M raised in the last two weeks.
Of course, the big-hearted world of automotive celebrities has taken part in the drenching charity effort as well. Follow on below for some of the biggest names on four wheels getting iced for charity, with a smattering of your favorite Autobloggers thrown in for good measure.

2015 Ford Mustang already under recall, but just 53 units

Sun, 19 Oct 2014

Ford has issued a small - but significant - recall for one of its spotlight cars: the 2015 Mustang.
The recall affects just 53 cars, with 50 in the United States and three in Canada. Ford said the passenger side safety belt buckle tension sensor may not have been calibrated properly by the supplier. This could lead to "misclassification" of the passenger seat occupant, and could cause the airbag to deploy improperly.
A Ford spokesperson didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. In a statement, the automaker said it is not aware of any accidents or injuries, and dealers will replace the buckle assembly at no cost to customers. The cars affected were built at Flat Rock Assembly Plant in Michigan from Aug. 18 to Oct. 2.
