Black Eddie Bauer Ford Excursion on 2040-cars
Nisswa, Minnesota, United States
|
This is an awesome vehicle that I purchased for hunting, fishing and camping. Unfortunately, family and business needs come first and I reluctantly have to part with this rig. I purchased this truck with 150k miles on it and have taken meticulous care of it since. It came with the EGR Delete kit, which is a costly but important modification for this year of the 6.0, and can increase the life of this engine dramatically. It also already had the 4" turbo-back exhaust system and Bullydog cold air intake. I have installed the "blue spring" fuel pressure regulator, which was another issue with these engines that caused them to not get enough fuel when under load. I have a Bullydog Power Pup 10-stage programmer I will also include for the successful bidder. The wheels are 18" Chrome plated and the tires are 325/65 Firestone Destination ATs with decent tread left. This truck is a BRUTE, as illustrated by the heavy duty bumper guard up front, made of 1/4" steel. I recently replaced the front hub assemblies and rotors, ($1800!!!) but otherwise it has been bulletproof. 4x4 works smoothly. The truck was a Florida vehicle until last winter, but even though it is tagged with Minnesota plates, it still has seen very little road salt. It's very clean. I've owned 9 Powerstroke diesels and this is my sixth 6.0. I know how to take care of them and I know their strengths and weaknesses. This is a good one. I would confidently take this truck anywhere. I have another Powerstroke 6.0 pickup that is a "project" truck for me and it doesn't run as smooth as this one, but I need to keep a truck and don't need the SUV. The steering is a little sloppy, as it needs some new rod ends, but it's aligned and doesn't dog track or anything. The front bumper is the only real flaw on the truck, as the passenger side has a little dent on it. If that was replaced, the body would be 99% straight. The interior is worn where it typically is, on the drivers' seat, but otherwise just normal wear and tear. Not a lot of stains, no rips, etc. I will upload better interior pics or email them upon request. I haven't had a chance to get pics during daylight since deciding to sell it. "Subtle" would not be a good word to describe this truck. It's loud and it stands out. My kids named it "Big E" and their class mates think it's "cool". I buy on Ebay, but not sold a lot, so I'm a little out of my comfort zone. I will make one last "road trip" in this rig if you cannot pick this truck up, for a negotiated amount. This is really a special interest vehicle and needs to go to someone that is specifically looking for this special American muscle! |

Watch the Hennessey Ford GT makes its record run at Texas Mile
Wed, 27 Mar 2013We said they'd probably be out with an official video, we did not lie. The Hennessey-powered camouflage Ford GT sat at one end of the runway at the Texas Mile sitting still. At the other end of the runway it had broken its own speed record, the twin-turbo 5.7-liter V8 pushing the aerodynamic supercar up to 267.6 miles per hour, a 4.3-mph improvement over the old mark.
There's not much in the video you haven't already seen, this just makes it official. That said, who doesn't want to see a twin-turbo Ford GT set an incredible speed record? You can watch it below.
Production of Shelby GT350 is coming to an end
Fri, 26 Jul 2013One Autoblog staffer who drove the limited-edition Shelby GT350 wrote it probably was the best Mustang he'd driven, but, at some point, the fun had to come to an end: December 31 is the last day the GT350 will be available to order.
The GT350's option list has evolved much like it did for the original 1965-67 GT350. For 2011, the 45th Anniversary edition only came in coupe form and was painted white with blue stripes, just as with the 1965 car. The 2012 GT350 was offered as a coupe or convertible, and three colors were added to the option list, just like the 1966 model. For 2013, more colors and options were added in addition to equipment and styling updates, which resulted in Wilwood instead of Baer brakes. No major changes were made for the 2014 model. From the first car in 2011, customers have been able to choose between three different configurations for their 5.0-liter V8: naturally aspirated with 440 horsepower, supercharged with 525 hp (with warranty) or supercharged with 624 hp (without warranty).
"When we unveiled this latest version of the Shelby GT350, we promised it would be built for a limited time to preserve its collectability and value," states John Luft, president of Shelby American. He may have a point, because the original GT350, which also had a limited production run, is among the most valuable muscle cars in the world.
Ford reflects on radical Mustang concept that never reached showrooms
Tue, 25 Jun 2013The Ford Mustang that we all know and love made major waves in the auto industry way back in 1964 by offering style and reasonable pricing with optional V8 power. Its long hood and short rear deck, combined with a low-slung and sporty cockpit, made a lasting impression in the minds of consumers and car designers alike, and its basic shape has so endured the test of time that it's still in use today.
This being the case, you may be interested to know that the first Mustang of 1964.5 wasn't actually the first Mustang at all, being preceded by a concept car that made its public debut in 1962. This concept was nothing like the car that would eventually make it into production, with a radical wedge shape and a small V4 engine sitting behind the car's two occupants, driving the rear wheels. In other words, the conceptual Mustang was pretty much the complete opposite of the production Mustang besides the name.
Ford has kindly decided go through its massive archive to bring the original Mustang concept back into the public eye. The company goes so far as to pose this question to fans of the pony car: "Should we borrow a few of these style elements for the next iteration of the Mustang?"
