This is a very strong running, well maintained, mechanically sound truck that I have owned for 10 of its 12 years.  I have always spared no expense with the maintenance, running full synthetic oil and premium filters at every change, and it shows.  Always adult driven; never abused.  Please, don't be scared by the miles - in modern vehicles, its more about the maintenance and HOW the vehicle was driven than how long it has been driven.  As you can probably guess, this has been my daily commuting truck until recently.  I have never had a major mechanical issue, and every major component works as it should. 

I had intended on keeping it "forever" to tow the boat, but I owe the IRS a LOT of taxes.  So, I sold the boat.  Now, with no boat I really have no need to keep the truck, and I DO have a need to pay of the rest of the taxes I owe ($5K), so I'm selling the truck.

Most of the truck's life has been in Arizona, where I commuted between Phoenix and Tucson, and Tucson and Sierra Vista (about 90 miles).   Dry climate, mostly, so no rust on it at all.  I did make several trips between Arizona and Florida. Six, to be exact.  The last time (about a year ago) I was towing the boat.  And I wouldn't hesitate to do it again tomorrow.  That's how confident I am in it being mechanically sound.  I have been extremely happy with the Ranger, and I want you to be, too.  That being the case, I have posted a good number of videos and pictures for those of you who can't make it here to see it in person before the auction ends.  Please ask questions; I'll respond as soon as I can.

The good:  well, most of it, really.  Runs strong, drives well. 

See it run and drive here: http://youtu.be/U_9bnX1x_Z4   and here: http://youtu.be/KznDvtRy5PY    and here: http://youtu.be/cSYX95JpNik

4-wheel high and low work well  There was a common problem with the 4wd control modules going bad.  This has the new, updated control module and has had no issues shifting into 4 wheel whenever I want. 

See it in 4wd here:  http://youtu.be/ZYnOv4FJO98 

The average: The exterior and interior are average, I would say. Sun faded on hood and roof.  Interior shows use.  Carpets have been vacuumed but could use a steam clean.  See the exterior here: http://youtu.be/BVdPCtcndeI  the interior here: http://youtu.be/eN85Qo3T1Xc I  welcome those who want to see it in person.  Contact me and we can set a time.

Ford hiring 2,200 salaried US workers this year

Fri, 11 Jan 2013

With its influx of popular new products made in the US, Ford Motor Company has announced that it intends to hire 2,200 new salaried workers domestically this year. This is the biggest increase of salaried workers for Ford in the last 10 years, and it is all a part of Ford's contract commitment to the United Auto Workers union to bring 12,000 new jobs to the US by 2015.
There were no specifics as to where in the US these job openings will be, but Ford did reiterate that it will be spending $773 million on equipment upgrades and capacity expansion at six plants located in southeast Michigan; as a whole, Ford is investing a total of $6.2 billion to its US assembly plants over the next couple years. According to recently appointed president of the Americas Joe Hinrichs, the new jobs will be focused on areas such as engineering, manufacturing and computer software. Ford will post its job openings online at careers.ford.com, and it will also use social media sites like Facebook and Twitter to recruit new workers, including military veterans.

Ford Fusion demand outstripping supply

Sat, 15 Jun 2013

The attractive new 2013 Ford Fusion has done wonders for the brand in the highly competitive midsize sedan segment - the vehicle is up nearly 22 percent compared to last year. But that sales momentum may soon hold steady due to low inventory levels of the new Fusion across the United States.
According to a report in The Detroit News, citing automotive data and Ward's Auto, Ford currently has a 39-day supply of the Fusion. That might sound fine, but a normally healthy average is about a 60-day supply. If Ford were to stop production on the Fusion today, there would only be enough vehicles available to get through another five weeks of sales, according to the News.
Currently, Ford produces the Fusion at its three-shift assembly plant in Hermosillo, Mexico, and will add production at its facility in Flat Rock, MI later this year. A Ford spokesperson told The Detroit News that when Flat Rock production comes online, the automaker will need to rush new stock out to the regions with the most demand for the Fusion. Ford has doubled its coastal retail market share, with huge amounts of growth in areas like Los Angeles, San Francisco and Miami, the News reports.
