4 Wheel Drive Econoline ClubWagon E-350 one ton...I owned this truck for 12 years now and about 10 years ago was when I did the 4WD conversion. I used a donor Quigley van that was rolled over and I put the drive train under the family van...It is a head turner and I'm going to miss that.
I have upgraded the steering linkage to get rid of the typical Ford wander. When it was time for a new radiator I installed a new 3 row Alumium. On a hot summer day I towed our 8500 lb skidsteer for 100 miles with the A/C on and the temp remained a perfect 195 degrees....a trailer brake controller is mounted in the dash and in the rear is a 2" receiver, a round 7 way and a flat 4 way plug.
The 5.8 liter V-8 runs sweet...it has plenty of power and runs smooth and quiet...The truck has 180,xxx miles and I use it when ever so that might be a little higher at time of purchase..the trans shifts as it should. I am the 3rd owner..the 2nd owner stated he had the trans redone with a new converter at 100,000 miles..the transfercase operates as it should...the locking hubs are 2 yr old WARN hubs and engage and disengage smoothly. During the conversion the truck received new u-joints, seals, brakes and brake lines and shocks...the rears and the springs were painted black...that was 10 years ago so it all could use a touch up...BUT the miles I do were maybe 2,000 a year as it is our 3rd (spare) vehicle..(state inspection records to prove it)..an oversize exhaust runs thru a new CAT and exits the stock location...the rear tires have about 500 miles on them...the fronts maybe 2,000 or so..the rims are alumium 8 lug and were sanded and painted.
Issues: I have taken pics of the rust bubbles and the rusted spot in front of the rear wheel...( skin only, wheel well looks intact)...it's a mear $60.00 for the patch panel but like the rest of my projects I just never get the time...the truck has REAR A/C that works great (last time I used it..summer 2012) ..the REAR HEAT does NOT work...the water lines to the rear heater core are rusted out. Another "was gonna do project" that I never got to..I thought of using Pex tubing that I have left over from my home remodel..........ALSO, the anti lock brake light has been on since the conversion, (donor truck was a cargo van with rear anti lock, my pass van has 4 wheel anti lock). last year the airbag light started to flash a code...the right front sensor is bad...still flashing because I'm not paying $260.00 for one.. HERE IN NY STATE the antilock brakes and the air bag issue is NOT part of the yearly inspection...check your State Laws and offer accordindingly if you have to fix these items.

2015 Ford Mustang gets pricing, configurator and less weight than expected
Fri, 13 Jun 2014It's here; it's finally here. No more speculating or looking at dealer order guides, the configurator for the 2015 Ford Mustang is finally online. That means you should put down whatever you're doing and build your new 'Stang. Weight data for the new model has also leaked out, and while there is an increase, it's less than previously rumored.
The basic V6 coupe carries a base price of $23,600, plus an additional $825 destination charge for all models. Upgrading to the 2.3-liter Ecoboost costs $25,170, and the Ecoboost Premium is $29,170. If you need a V8 in your life, the Mustang GT is $32,100 or $36,100 with the Premium package. That puts the starting price up about $1,000 over the previous generation for the V6, but the turbocharged four-cylinder starts about $1,400 less than the V6 Premium, which is no longer available. Prices for both V8 models jumped about $1,000, as well.
If you need the convertible Mustang, the V6 starts at $29,100, excluding destination, $1,590 more than last year. The Ecoboost Premium 'vert is $34,670, and the GT droptop is $41,600.
Ford partnering with MIT, Stanford on autonomous vehicle research
Fri, 24 Jan 2014Ask any car engineer what's the biggest variable in achieving fuel economy targets, and he'll tell you "the driver." If one human can't understand human driving behavior enough to be certain about an innocuous number like miles per gallon, how is an autonomous car supposed to figure out what hundreds of other drivers are going to do in the course of a day? Ford has enlisted the help of Stanford and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to find out.
Starting with the automated Fusion Hybrid introduced in December, MIT will be developing algorithms that driverless cars can use to "predict actions of other vehicles and pedestrians" and objects within the three-dimensional map provided by its four LIDAR sensors.
The Stanford team will research how to extend the 'vision' of that LIDAR array beyond obstructions while driving, analogous to the way a driver uses the entire width of a lane to see what's ahead of a larger vehicle in front. Ford says it wants to "provide the vehicle with common sense" as part of its Blueprint for Mobility, preparing for an autonomous world from 2025 and beyond.
Ford readying Ranger-based Everest SUV?
Fri, 21 Feb 2014Way back in August, we showed you a Ford concept for the Australian market called the Everest. Now, we can show you that work on the new Ranger-based SUV is well under way.
At this stage, it's still quite clearly a mule (note the misalignment of the front and rear doors), wearing the Ranger's front end and the rump of Ford's overseas Territory crossover. The wheelbase is shorter than a Ranger, according to our spy photographers, which strikes us as somewhat odd for a more passenger-oriented vehicle. Disc brakes should be fitted at all four corners, while the new SUV, which will almost certainly wear the Everest name, should sport a new rear suspension.
In terms of looks, we're expecting the Everest Concept to inform the appearance of the production model. Naturally, there will also be some interior tweaks, particularly around the dashboard, which is covered in these photos.
