 1989 SHO in very good condition, never wrecked, southern car. The car has been repainted a two-tone silver and red, and looks really good. 60K service at 191 K, including timing belt, valve cover gaskets, spark plugs, wires, water pump and starter. Valves were adjusted and compression tested. Compression showed 210# or better on each cylinder. New rear struts and rear stabilizer bar links. New headlight assemblies. 16" slicer wheels with 205/60-16 BFG Traction TA tires in good condition. A/C works when charged but will leak down in the course of a summer. New front door and trunk weather strip. It has the original cable shifter, which works well. I have some extra parts, including a rod shifter kit. The current front seats are a shade of brown. You can see their condition in the photos. I have the original grey seats, (in about the sane condition) which I intended to get recovered, but haven't. All the seats functions are functional. Everything in/on the car works. The windows go up and down, the sound system is great (an Alpine unit. The iPod goes with it.). Keyless entry, automatic climate control, automatic headlight function. Full size spare, and extra set of 16" slicer wheels if you want them. I kept thinking I'd get to do some cruising, but all I ever do is work, so it might as well go to somebody who can play with it.

Which is more fuel efficient, driving with a pickup's tailgate up or down?

Tue, 26 Aug 2014



Thanks to the smoke wand in the wind tunnel, you can actually see the difference in our video.
Should you drive with your pickup truck's tailgate up or down? It's an age-old controversy that's divided drivers for decades. Traditionalists will swear you should leave the tailgate down. Makes sense, right? It would seem to let the air flow more cleanly over the body and through the bed. But there's also a school of thought that argues trucks are designed to look and operate in a specific manner, and modern design techniques can help channel the airflow properly. So don't mess with all of that: Leave the tailgate up.

Ford gives S-Max the Vignale treatment in Milan

Wed, 09 Apr 2014

Ford has a bit of a history in reviving the names of old coachbuilders it has long since gobbled up and using them to distinguish its top-of-the-line models in Europe. That's what it did for years with Ghia, and after having replaced it several years ago with the Titanium trim level, now it's doing it again with Vignale.
At the Frankfurt Motor Show last year, Ford revealed the Mondeo Vignale concept in both sedan and wagon body-styles, which are set to reach production next year. But before they do, the Blue Oval automaker is at it again, applying similar upgrades to the S-Max minivan and unveiling it in concept form in Milan this week.
Setting the Vignale concept apart from any other S-Max is its Milano Grigio rose-hued silver pearlescent paint, 21-inch alloys, chrome trim and hexagonal-pattern grille. Inside it's all ultra-soft quilted leather and aluminum trim, with tablet docking stations in the back and thinner, more flexible seats than the existing production version.
