This 1993 Ranger (extended cab with jump seats) was converted to electric back in 2008 with a kit from EV America. It has 24 Trojan T-125 6V batteries for a 144V system and a Quickcharge 220V charger. The body is in good shape, no rust. The conversion has less than 1000 miles on it since I used it only for around-town driving. The brakes have been replaced. It has a tonneau cover for the bed / battery compartment. The battery pack is getting older so it will probably need to be replaced in the next year or two. I haven't taken it more than 12 miles in the past few years (the batteries were still doing ok at that point). The batteries still hold a charge but plan on replacing them. I have enjoyed this vehicle and the self sufficiency it has offered.  I have gotten very busy on my job and as a result I do not drive it much anymore. 


Installed on the vehicle are the following components: 30HP FB1-4001A Advanced DC Motor, 1231C-8601 Curtis Controller (96-144 V) 500 Amp Limit, PB-6 Curtis Potbox, 80-180 V Voltmeter, 0-400 Amp Ammeter, Shunt, Gast Vacuum Pump (12V), Inertia Switch - Auto Shutoff (12V Sys), Astrodyne DC-DC Converter SP-480(V), Electric Heater, Tilt Bed Package - 200 lbs 15 inch stroke.

Ford Recalls Nearly 700,000 Vehicles

Fri, May 9 2014

Ford is recalling more than 692,000 Escape small SUVs and C-Max gas-electric hybrids in North America to fix two safety problems. The recalls cover vehicles from the 2013 and 2014 model years. Most of the Escapes have both problems. The first case covers 692,500 Escape and C-Max vehicles. A software glitch can stop the side curtain air bags from inflating in certain types of rollover crashes. The company says it has no reports of crashes or injuries. Dealers will reprogram the air bag control computer for free. About 65,000 of the recalled vehicles are C-Max models, and the rest are Escapes. Roughly 591,000 are in the U.S., with 3,500 more in U.S. territories. About 78,000 are in Canada and another 19,500 are in Mexico, Fordspokeswoman Kelli Felker said in an e-mail. There could be more vehicles affected in other markets, the company said. The affected Escapes were built from Oct. 5, 2011 through Feb. 14, 2014. The C-Max vehicles were built from Jan. 19, 2012, through Feb. 24, 2014. The second case covers about 692,700 Escapes. Exterior door handles can bind and stop the door from latching properly. This could allow doors to open while the SUVs are in motion. Dealers will inspect the handles and reposition them if needed. No crashes or injuries have been reported. About 583,000 are in the U.S. or its territories, with another 89,500 in Canada and 20,000 in Mexico. Ford said in this case, the problem may affect vehicles in other markets. All the North American Escapes were built from Oct. 5, 2011, through April 10, 2014. Recalls Ford escape
