Ansonia, Connecticut, United States

For sale is my 1996 full size Ford Bronco Eddie Bauer Edition. I have owned this truck for 11 years, and have not really driven it much in the last 2 years. I still start it and move it about once a month. It's still a decent old truck that is becoming harder to find. 

The Bad:

Typical Ford rust over both rear wheel wells, and minor rust on the tailgate.
ABS light is on
Needs rear tires
Passenger side power window does not work (have replacement motor)
Slight lifter tick when warm
Manual transfer case lever a bit sticky - but will go I to 4WD HI
I'm sure I've left something out - after all, it is 18 years old!

The Good:

New rear brakes/hardware/drums turned
New front brakes/rotors turned
New plugs/wires/cap/rotor
New timing chain/gears
New water pump
New radiator
New radiator hoses
New heater hoses
Fresh oil & filter
A/C blows cold
Front tires are nearly new - OE Goodyear Wrangler RT/S
Alpine AM/FM/CD player properly installed in dash
Probably leaving something out here as well

I have some extra parts to go with it, including D/S & P/S power window motors, tail lights, ABS computer, P/S door panel, rear cargo net, and a box of small misc. parts. 

Please feel free to contact me at 203-751-1025 for any questions. I will require an immediate deposit of $500 from the winning bidder, with the balance due in cash or money order. I have a clear CT title in my name which will not be released until the truck is paid for in full. I can help arrange transportation if you need it shipped, but the cost will be on the winning bidder.

Ford of Europe celebrates Mondeo's 20th anniversary

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

Ford's European operations are celebrating a milestone of sorts as the Mondeo, the Blue Oval's bread-and-butter D-segment sedan in the old country, celebrates its 20th anniversary. The mid-sizer, which was sold in the US for a short time as the Contour, has been a far more popular vehicle in Europe - even receiving regular praise from one Jeremy Clarkson.
Narrated by Cockney actor Ray Winstone, the video goes through the Mondeo's years and how it's evolved from 1993 to the as-yet-unreleased fifth-generation model, which is essentially the same as the Ford Fusion that's sold in America. Take a look below for the full video from Ford of Europe.

Ford C-Max Solar Energi takes a recharging station wherever it goes

Wed, 08 Jan 2014

Companies ranging in size from small startups to major automakers have been experimenting with solar-powered charging stations for EVs and plug-in hybrids. And, of course, people have been powering vehicles with onboard solar panels for quite some time, too. Still, Ford's new C-Max Solar Energi Concept shows the promise of a truly practical implementation of solar on a production vehicle, and it may not be as far off in the future as we had thought.
As we reported a few days ago, the Solar concept makes use of a "concentrator lens" that focuses sunlight onto the Ford's roof-mounted solar panels. The special lens follows the rays of the sun to maximize the amount of charge being fed to the batteries of the car, taking about a day to fully charge the 21-mile, all-electric range of the C-Max Energi. Ford data suggests that combination might be enough to power 75 percent of all trips made by a statistically average driver. In turn, using the sun to power a vehicle could reduce yearly C02 emissions by up to four metric tons when compared with the driver of an average gasoline-powered sedan.
We've got live images of the C-Max Solar Energi Concept, jauntily tilted on its display to best present it's signature solar panels, straight from the CES floor.

Automakers' rush on aluminum may result in shortage

Thu, 13 Feb 2014

Aluminum is the new buzzword in the automotive industry. The latest Range Rover and Range Rover Sport both take advantage of the lightweight material to shave huge amounts of body fat (only it's called "aluminium" over there). Audi and Jaguar have been using the stuff for years in their A8 and XJ, respectively, and now, aluminum is going mainstream, arriving on the 2015 Ford F-150.
While we're excited to see aluminum make an impact outside the premium market, its widespread adoption apparently won't come without some problems, notably in terms of supply. "There isn't an automotive manufacturer that makes vehicles in North America that we're not talking to," Tom Boney, of Novelis, the largest global supplier of aluminum sheetmetal, told The Detroit News.
According to Boney, Ford's use of aluminum on such a large scale has forced auto manufacturers in "every boardroom" to reconsider their plans following the F-150's unveiling, for one simple reason: there's not exactly enough aluminum to go around, at least in the short term. The auto industry presently only accounts for six percent of the aluminum sheet produced, but as the material is adopted by more and more brands, that figure is expected to swell to 25 percent within the next six years.
