The Vehicle..........2000 Ford Ranger Supercab 4X4 Pickup in dark orange with a gray interior. This LOW MILEAGE Ranger is in GOOD CONDITION and RUNS BEAUTIFULLY. It has a completely CLEAN CARFAX report and a CLEAN TITLE. Features include the 3.0 liter V6 engine, automatic transmission, 4 wheel drive, power steering and brakes, ice cold air conditioning, delay wipers, am-fm stereo, tonneau cover, new tires, towing package, steel wheels, and much more. This is a VERY nice truck!

Its Condition..........GREAT! The engine runs smoothly with no skips, noises, or vibrations. The transmission shifts smoothly through all the gears, and all other mechanical systems function properly. The 4X4 works perfectly and there are no warning lights on the dash. The shift selector lever works fine but is tight and should be lubricated. The interior is excellent! There are no badly worn, torn, or stained areas on the seats, or headliner. The seats are supportive and comfortable. All other interior panels look great. The paint and body are excellent. There are no big dents, rusted areas, or serious scratches anywhere on the body. The paint appears original, and has an outstanding shine. The rear frame rails show evidence of rust repairs that are VERY common on Rangers and Explorers. The rear frame rails are now solid, undercoated, and the rear spring perches are new. The rest of the undercarriage looks about average for a 2000 Ranger. Driving this Ranger is a smooth and solid experience with a powerful engine, comfortable interior and great stereo. There are no shakes, rattles, or vibrations, and the ride is just as smooth and comfortable as you would expect. I would describe this great looking truck as CLEAN, TIGHT, and DEPENDABLE!

Things you should know..........I try hard to accurately describe all of our trucks. Most are trade-ins to local new car dealers. We have not owned or driven these vehicles as daily transportation. The description is the result of a short test drive over varied road surfaces and a visual inspection while the vehicle is parked. I am not a mechanic and I do not guarantee that my description of problems (if any) is accurate or complete, but I try very hard to be thorough and honest, and my reputation reflects that effort. Please remember that these are used vehicles and you should expect a normal amount of wear for the year and mileage, but any serious known defects would be noted above. Local bidders are encouraged to see, drive, and inspect this vehicle prior to bidding.

The Details..........Please leave a $200 deposit at the end of the auction through ebay checkout and Paypal. The balance is due within 7 days in cash, or by wire transfer. I’ve been burned by official looking bank checks that were made on a home computer so we no longer accept checks of ANY kind. We add a $250 doc fee to all vehicle purchases. Paperwork will include a Bill of Sale, Clean Title, and odometer statement only. If your state requires notarized paperwork or special forms, please let me know before you arrive.  The vehicle is being sold AS-IS, with no warranty expressed or implied. Massachusetts residents agree to buy for parts or restoration only. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer, but I'll help in any way that I can. Massachusetts does NOT offer temp plates. If you plan to drive the truck home, you will need to bring your own license plates.

This Ranger is parked in my storage garage at 20 Whitney St in Holliston, MA. It can be seen, inspected, and test driven there. Please call me at 508-944-4914 to set up a time for your test drive. But do not wait until the last day when we are almost out of time. That never works.

Ford Focus RS ready to make our hot hatch dreams real

Fri, 17 Oct 2014

Ford's current hot hatch siblings the Fiesta ST and Focus ST are already two pretty great entries into the segment, but there's always a desire for a little more. Thankfully, it looks like the Blue Oval is ready to satiate that need because it's continuing to test the even more powerful Focus RS around Europe. According to our spy shooters, these shots come from near the Nürburgring.
As with previous photos, Ford engineers continue to heavily camouflage the front end of the RS prototypes, but there's a big difference here. Unlike earlier ones, this example appears to have a closer-to-production-ready front bumper rather than just a horizontal strip for the license plate. That may point to development getting somewhat closer to wrapping up. Although, this one lacks the larger rear wing from prior testers, and the exhaust also appears to be a work in progress with the rear diffuser covered in mesh in these latest shots.
The RS is rumored to be using the 2.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder from the 2015 Mustang, but power is reportedly turned up from 310 horsepower in the 'Stang to somewhere between 325 hp and 350 hp for the Focus. Routing all that just through the front wheels could be a recipe for serious torque steer, and all-wheel drive is potentially being used for better traction.

Ford files trademark for 'EcoBeast' moniker

Mon, Dec 29 2014

Ford has done some performance stuff with its EcoBoost line of vehicles, most notably with its Focus and Fiesta ST, the new, turbocharged Mustang and the luke-warm Taurus SHO and F-150 Tremor, but it's kind of avoided going wholly bonkers. That could be set to change quite soon, judging by a trademark filing with Uncle Sam. Ford has registered the name EcoBeast with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, listing it as "automobiles and automobile engines," according to the team at Motorlix, which discovered the filing. As always, it bears mentioning that companies are constantly filing trademarks, even if a good or service never emerges with said name. We agree with Motorlix, though – it seems highly unlikely Ford is going to just let this name languish. What vehicle or engine will wear this new badge is the real question. We're leaning towards something F-150 related, based on our last round of spy photos of the new SVT Raptor, although it's impossible to say for certain what the Blue Oval has planned. Here's hoping we find out in just a few weeks when Ford brings basically all of its performance merchandise to the 2015 Detroit Auto Show. Until then, let us know what you think Ford is planning with the EcoBeast.

Aluminum lightweighting does, in fact, save fuel

Mon, Apr 14 2014

When the best-selling US truck sheds the equivalent weight of three football fullbacks by shifting to aluminum, folks start paying attention. Oak Ridge National Laboratory took a closer look at whether the reduced fuel consumption from a lighter aluminum body makes up for the fact that producing aluminum is far more energy intensive than steel. And the results of the study are pretty encouraging. In a nutshell, the energy needed to produce a vehicle's raw materials accounts for about 10 percent of a typical vehicle's carbon footprint during its total lifecycle, and that number is up from six percent because of advancements in fuel economy (fuel use is down to about 68 percent of total emissions from about 75 percent). Still, even with that higher material-extraction share, the fuel-efficiency gains from aluminum compared to steel will offset the additional vehicle-extraction energy in just 12,000 miles of driving, according to the study. That means that, from an environmental standpoint, aluminum vehicles are playing with the house's money after just one year on the road. Aluminum-sheet construction got topical real quickly earlier this year when Ford said the 2015 F-150 pickup truck would go to a 93-percent aluminum body construction. In addition to aluminum being less corrosive than steel, that change caused the F-150 to shed 700 pounds from its curb weight. And it looks like the Explorer and Expedition SUVs may go on an aluminum diet next. Take a look at SAE International's synopsis of the Oak Ridge Lab's study below. Life Cycle Energy and Environmental Assessment of Aluminum-Intensive Vehicle Design Advanced lightweight materials are increasingly being incorporated into new vehicle designs by automakers to enhance performance and assist in complying with increasing requirements of corporate average fuel economy standards. To assess the primary energy and carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) implications of vehicle designs utilizing these materials, this study examines the potential life cycle impacts of two lightweight material alternative vehicle designs, i.e., steel and aluminum of a typical passenger vehicle operated today in North America. LCA for three common alternative lightweight vehicle designs are evaluated: current production ("Baseline"), an advanced high strength steel and aluminum design ("LWSV"), and an aluminum-intensive design (AIV).
