Up for sale is my 2004 Ford Ranger.  This truck has been nothing but awesome for the past 3 years I've owned it.  I gave the truck a full tune up about 20,000 miles ago including plugs, wires, cleaning out the throttle body and intake system, lubing up any necessary components, flushing the transmission fluid, the power steering fluid, recharging the a/c, changed the air and fuel filters, oil, and oil filter.  The truck got new drums in the back about 10,000 miles ago and the pads up front were replaced about 15,000 miles ago.  The tires are all in good shape and have a good 40-50% thread left.  I purchased the tremor package wheels and tires as that's not what originally came with the truck and it transformed the ride completely.  Last weekend I rotated and balanced the tires.  I also installled a new windshield on the truck about 3 weeks ago.  It also has an aftermarket Kenwood unit with USB and auxiliary connections and Pandora capabilities. 

I purchased the truck when it had just under 110,000 miles from a used car lot in Tennessee.  I was told by them that the truck had been involved in an accident but they repaired everything and had the truck inspected to be legally drivable in Tennessee which it passed with flying colors.  When I bought it, I had to get it re-inspected in Georgia to be able to register it and again it passed with flying colors. 

That being said, this is a ten year old truck and it's not perfect.  It has a few imperfections that are all minor but I'll mention them just to be as transparent as possible.  The driver side door and fender have a couple of dents from someone opening the door and denting it in a parking lot.  I wasn't able to catch them so I didn't get it fixed but the dents are not very significant and there's no paint peeling, just a couple of small dings.  The tailgate has a couple of dents as well and there are a couple of minor scratches on the right side but not visible unless you're up close.  In the interior, the only imperfection is a rip in the seat that can be seen in the pictures.  Obviously, none of this is mechanical and all purely cosmetic and not visible or enough to be an issue for me as a daily driver. 

This truck is in great shape.  The engine pulls strong and shows no signs of slowing down.  I haven't towed much with this truck since I bought it either, just my jet ski twice when I used to have one.  It constantly gets me between 20 and 23 miles per gallon combined and has a more torque than 4 cylinder compacts out there getting similar mileage.  Anyone that has owned Rangers in the past knows these trucks run forever.  If you have any further questions, please let me know and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

What next for Alan Mulally?

Wed, 23 Apr 2014

Alan Mulally has emerged as a hero when it comes to American manufacturing. He came to Ford in 2006 after serving as head of Boeing's commercial aircraft division, streamlined operations, sold off the costly elements of its Premier Automotive Group and saved Ford from having to be bailed out by the federal government like its cross-town rivals Chrysler and General Motors did. But as we reported mere days ago, he's widely expected to step down from the chief executive's office at Ford shortly.
So what's next for one of the most successful executives in the business? Hard to say, but don't expect Mulally to disappear into retirement. Though he didn't ultimately take the top job at Microsoft, industry insiders expect to see him in another influential position - likely as a board director or even chairman of another company. (We say "another company" and not Ford because while Bill Ford may have stepped aside as CEO to bring Mulally on board in the first place, we don't see him giving up his chairmanship of the board also.)
Mulally has likely already lined up his next move, and could either announce what that move will be as soon as Ford confirms Mark Fields as his successor, or could wait awhile. Insiders speculate that he could leverage his transportation and aerospace experience into a position at General Electric or a major airline, his manufacturing expertise to benefit a company like Procter & Gamble or his management skills at a consultancy firm.

2015 Ford F-Series Super Duty is class-leading once again

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

Time for everyone to feign surprise - Ford has just announced that it has the increased horsepower and torque levels of its 6.7-liter Power Stroke turbodiesel V8 engine for 2015. As you'd expect, the Blue Oval is claiming class-leading figures of 440 hp (up from 400) and 860 pound-feet (up from 800), and that's enough to enable Ford's F-450 Super Duty model to tow as much as 31,200 pounds, which, again, the automaker claims is class leading.
Now, it should be noted that the max rating quoted above is achieved with the Ford F-450. The 2015 F-350, which is perhaps a better comparison to the Ram 3500 HD pickup that claimed the towing crown in 2013 at an even 30,000 pounds, is capped at 26,500 pounds, either with a gooseneck or when towing a fifth-wheel trailer. In any case, it's going to take a load the size of Godzilla to make any of the current crop of fullsize heavy-duty pickup trucks break into a sweat. For those keeping track, Chevy rates its 2015 Silverado HD at a maximum of 23,200 pounds.
Ford's newfound pulling power comes courtesy of a larger turbocharger for its in-house Power Stroke engine, new fuel injector tips and, we'd assume, retuned computer controls. Besides the engine enhancements, the F-350 gets a wider front track for 2015 and new front springs, while the F-450 gains commercial-grade 19.5-inch wheels and tires, new rear U-joints, leaf springs, stabilizer bars and shocks. The steering and brake systems have also been upgraded.
