2000 Ford Ranger 2wd Flareside with 4 doors and 3.0 liter engine. This is a good little truck and pulls an average of around 19 mpg with my driving habits which consist of both highway and service roads. I have had this truck for 5 years now but I have decided to upgrade to a 4wd vehicle.

First the good. I work for a Ford dealership so I stayed up on maintaining the truck and have service records to back that up. On top of the maintenance other recent service performed as follows: Rebuilt alternator, new plugs, new wires, new coil pack. The rear leaf spring shackles and brackets and hardware is all new. New brakes as well. There is no rust the body of this truck. Everything works as intended such as AC, heat, radio/cd, etc.

Now for the needs. The truck has an intermittent cylinder 5 misfire. I tried Marvel mystery oil and Seafoam additives as the technician diagnosed it as a sticking valve. Neither of these solutions have cleared it up completely. The check engine light does come on when this occurs and caused me to fail the Mass emission inspection. Also she will need a new set of tires or at least the rear ones. This said the truck runs and drives albeit not at peak performance and I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere.

So if you are looking for an inexpensive truck for use around the house or work, this is it. If you would like to see any specific pictures please ask and I will take them and send them along. Also please ask any questions you may have and I will do my best to answer as quickly as possible.

Winning bid will require a 100.00 deposit via Paypal within 48 hours of the auction end. The rest can be paid cash in person at vehicle pickup. I would also accept a certified bank check from a known bank that I can verify funds and cash upon pickup of truck. Any other payment requests please ask before bidding. I do have a CLEAR title on this truck and that will be signed over to the winning bidder once finances have been met. I will NOT arrange transport but will work with a transport company if you chose that route. Please remember that your winning bid is a binding contract to purchase so please bid accordingly.

Thank You and happy biding!

Ford F-150, Chevy Silverado, Toyota Tundra flunk IIHS headlight test

Tue, Oct 25 2016

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety put pickup truck headlights to the test and found that the majority of them were equipped with subpar units. The 2017 Honda Ridgeline was the only truck to earn a rating of "good." The large pickup truck test was comprised of the: 2016 to 2017 GMC Sierra, 2017 Nissan Titan, 2016 Ram 1500, 2016 to 2017 Chevrolet Silverado, 2016 to 2017 Ford F-150, and 2016 to 2017 Toyota Tundra. The Sierra's headlights earned a rating of "acceptable," the headlights found on the Titan and Ram 1500 were found to be "marginal," and the ones on the Silverado, F-150, and Tundra were rated as "poor." IIHS claims the F-150 was the most disappointing out of the large pickup trucks as both its halogen and optional LED headlights failed to provide adequate visibility during testing. The Ridgeline (which earned a "good rating"), is usually considered a midsize or small truck, though IIHS included it in the field of large pickups. The headlights on the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, 2016 GMC Canyon, 2016 Nissan Frontier, and 2016 to 2017 Toyota Tacoma, which made up the small pickup truck group, all earned a rating of "poor." The IIHS claimed the Colorado had the worst headlights of any truck that was tested, as the base vehicle's units were only able to illuminate up to 123 feet in front of the car. The Ridgeline's headlights, for reference, were able to illuminate up to 358 feet in front of the vehicle. To conduct its test, the IIHS utilizes a special tool to measure how far light is projected out of the headlights in different driving situations. The trucks' headlights were tested in a straight line and in corners, while vehicles with high-beam assist were given extra praise. The headlights on the pickup trucks also mimic the testing that was done on small SUVs and cars earlier this year. Next year, automakers will need to fit their vehicles with headlights that earn a rating of either good or acceptable to earn the IIHS Top Safety Pick+. Related Video:

eBay Find of the Day: 1970 Ford Torino King Cobra prototype

Wed, 08 May 2013

Over the last decade or so, competition in NASCAR has led to some pretty funky looking racecars. And when the sport was still up and coming, the tight competition actually led to some interesting production cars. The Dodge Charger Daytona and Plymouth Superbird are perhaps the most well-known cars of the sport's "aero wars" era but the Ford Torino King Cobra might have been the most memorable of all, if not for some different homologation rules established in 1970. The Torino King Cobra never made it to production and never competed in NASCAR, but three examples exist including this one now for sale on eBay.
Designed as a successor for the aero-tuned Torino Talladega, the Torino King Cobra has a sleeker front end with hidden headlights and a sloped nose. As the story goes, NASCAR made a rule change in 1970 requiring 3,000 of the vehicles to be produced, which was substantially more than the 500 units required by the previous rule. One of the three prototypes ever built - and the only one built with the Boss 429 engine - is now for sale on eBay with a starting bid of $500,000. With a little more than three days left on the auction there are still no bids, but in the grand scheme of things this seems like a relatively fair price for a rare piece of automobile and racing history.

USPS releases hot rod stamps to speed up your delivery

Sun, 08 Jun 2014

After one of the worst winters in recent memory for much of the country, summer is finally here. It's time to drop the top, open the sunroof or at least put down the windows and take a long drive. The United States Postal Service is celebrating the season's sun in automotive style with two new hot rod Forever stamps.
Both stamps depict classic '32 Ford hot rods. One shows the car from the front at a low angle in red (pictured above), while the other depicts the car from the back in black with flames running down the side.
To introduce the new stamps on their first day of availability, the USPS went straight to the source at the National Street Rod Association Street Rod Nationals in York, PA. They were unveiled by Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe, Car Crazy host Barry Meguiar and NSRA Special Events Director Jerry Kennedy.
