Selling my Trusty Rusty!  This has been my 3rd vehicle for the last 2 years.  I am updating with a newer truck.  I bought Ugly Betty in July of 2011.  I've used it as a weekend work & hunting truck.  I've put about 4,000 miles on it since getting it.  I commute about 30 miles(each way) with it once or twice a month when I need to haul something.  It has served me pretty well, but do to its age and condition upkeep is necessary.  Runs good, starts every time...sometimes slow to catch in the winter.


Biggest defects are as follows:
  • rear fuel tank is not connected and cannot be used as is
  • emergency brake lines have rusted away
  • leaks oil
  • dead AC
  • rusty undercarriage
  • primer paint on roof
  • someone keyed "HA!" on the driver's door

I've replaced the following in the last two years.
  • brake pads (summer 2011)
  • rear brake kits including new wheel cylinders (old drums reused) (summer 2011)
  • windshield (summer 2011) 
  • installed new proper sized battery (summer 2011)
  • installed used rear fuel tank (summer 2011) IS NOT CONNECTED
  • replaced fuel sending relay (summer 2012)
  • replaced negative battery cable (summer 2012)
  • replaced front springs and shocks (summer 2012)
  • replaced rear shocks
  • Inner/outer front end wheel bearing (last month)
I have a brand new starter (NAPA brand) for this truck that I haven't installed.  Turned out to be the rusted negative battery cable that was causing the starting problem in 2012.  That starter is included in this sale.

Take a look at the ton of pictures to get a feel for the condition.  Sold AS IS, WHERE IS with NO WARRANTY from Geneva, IL.
 
Feel free to contact me with questions.  This is my first time selling a vehicle on EBAY, I expect a $200 dollar paypal deposit within 48 hours of auction completion, and the balance to be pain in-person (cash or cashier's check) or via paypal at pickup.

Ford to build Explorer in Russia to meet demand [w/video]

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

The current Ford Explorer is sold in more than 64 countries, and this three-row vehicle continues to grow in popularity worldwide. To keep up with demand, Ford began producing the Explorer at Ford Sollers Elabuga Assembly Plant in Tatarstan, Russia, a joint venture facility. This partnership will build Russian-market Explorers only, and production of export vehicles not destined for Russian buyers will continue to be built at Ford's assembly plant in Chicago.
Before this plant went online, Ford would ship Explorers to Russia (and other regions around the world) as partially assembled knock-down units where final assembly would eventually take place. While there is no indication as to how many Explorers Ford Sollers will build for Russia, Ford did add that exports of the SUV were up 65 percent last year (from 2011) accounting for more than 24,000 units.
Scroll down for a press release about the Russian Explorer as well as a video (bad music and all) showing the SUV being produced in Tatarstan.

Roush getting back into sport compact business with Focus ST mods [w/video]

Wed, 29 May 2013

Roush Performance offers a whole raft of parts for folks looking to tune their Ford Mustang and F-150 models, and now Focus owners can start getting in on the hotted-up action, too. Owners of the 2012-13 Focus and 2013 Focus ST can now get a Roush cold-air intake system, and ST owners can also opt for a high-performance cat-back exhaust.
Although all of these components are now available for order, the parts will ship sometime in July; no word yet on pricing. Down the road, Roush will also offer styling upgrades for the Focus as well as performance tuning upgrades such as engine controller, suspension, wheels and tires. Scroll down for a quick video of what the Focus ST exhaust sounds like, as well as a Roush press release.

Ford moving medium-duty F-Series production from Mexico to Ohio

Thu, 27 Feb 2014


A few more Ford trucks will be built in the US in the near future with news that production of the F-650 and F-750 medium-duty trucks will move from Mexico to Ford's Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, OH. Ford hasn't confirmed a precise timeline for the move, but The Detroit News claims the Blue Oval will make the shift later this year or in early 2015.
As Ford spokesperson Mike Levine reminded us, back in 2011, Ford announced in an investor release that it would shift production "after the [Ohio] plant stops current production of the Ford E-Series vans." According to that release, the Ohio factory will also receive $128 million in upgrades to build the new trucks, plus the F53 motorhome chassis and F59 commercial chassis.
