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.

Ford Mondeo classes up with premium Vignale trim

Wed, 11 Sep 2013

Back in the day, Vignale was a carrozzeria of the highest order, alongside the likes of Pininfarina, Bertone and Zagato. But like Giugiaro-ItalDesign and Ghia, it has since been subsumed into a larger auto group. Ford ended up with it under its umbrella when it took over De Tomaso, and has since used the moniker for a number of concept cars. Now the name is back in the form of a new upscale sub-brand for the European market.
The first new model to receive the Vignale treatment is the Mondeo, which Ford unveiled here at the Frankfurt Motor Show in both sedan and wagon forms. Positioned above the Titanium trim, the Vignale model gets such special touches as chrome trim and a quilted leather interior, Vignale badges replacing any mention of the Mondeo on which it's based. It also gains an ownership experience - including free car washes for life! - to befit the upscale positioning.
Under the bright spotlights above the show floor, the Nocciola metallic brown paint might not be the most photogenic, but will likely give the Vignale edition a more premium look when it hits European dealers and roads in 2015. Whether it'll be worth however much Ford asks for it, however, remains to be seen. Scroll down below for the official press release.

Ford pulls official support from top-level NHRA teams

Sun, 11 Aug 2013

As the smallest team in the sport, it wasn't really a surprise when Dodge decided to pull out of NASCAR, but Autoweek is reporting that Ford is looking to pull the plug on its professional-level NHRA sponsorships following the 2014 season. With attendance and television ratings down, the article reports that Ford is just backing out of the top series but will remain active in the Sportsman classes of racing, which are geared more toward the grassroots and semi-professional racers.
This means that one of drag racing's biggest names, John Force, will be left looking for new sponsorship after next season. Force, 64, has been with Ford for 17 years, winning 15 championships in that time and winning almost half of all Funny Car events in his Mustang since he started working with Ford in 1997, but after 2014, there could be some big shakeups at John Force Racing.
According to the report, Force would consider is moving over to the Top Fuel dragster series, although he could also move to another manufacturer to remain in the Funny Car series. With Ford on the way out, this leaves just Toyota and Dodge as the remaining active automakers in the highest levels of drag racing.

Ford reveals new rapid prototyping and low-volume production techniques [w/video]

Mon, 08 Jul 2013

It's called "F3T," and that stands for Ford Free-form Fabrication Technology. The process that The Blue Oval has developed means being able to sidestep the weeks-long process of tool-and-die making when engineers want to construct a new part, allowing them to fabricate a three-dimensional part from a two-dimensional sheet of metal in just hours.
While F3T is being developed it is limited to "low-volume prototyping or even low-volume niche vehicles," but the next step is to evaluate it for use in Ford's global manufacturing facilities. You can find out more about it in the video and the press release below.
