Compressed Natural Gas or CNG, is one of nature's best untapped energy sources. Unlike fossil fuels, it is constantly produced by the earth and can also be synthesized through chemical processes. The technology has been around for decades but until recently has been kept in the closet by big oil! It is one of the fastest growing alternative fuel sources and unlike biodiesel and ethanol (E85), is a viable replacement for petroleum. Within the next 10 years 90% of gov't fleets will be CNG and civilian population will follow over the next 20 yrs. Getting sick and tired of the up and down ridiculous gas prices?? With the price of gas skyrocketing yet again, there's no better time to buy an alternative fuel vehicle. Here is your chance to own a hard to find 2003 Ford F-150 XL Bifuel CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) and gasoline pickup truck. Save big $$$ with natural gas, while helping clean up the environment. Equipped with the heavy duty 7700 package, consists of heavier trans and diff standard in an F250 along with extra leaf in rear springs and bigger 7 lug wheels. If you have a business, this vehicle can save you a substantial amount on fuel costs! This is a factory CNG package, NOT an aftermarket retrofit. This is a bifuel CNG and GASOLINE vehicle and runs on either fuel. This is equipped with the newer (non-compuvalve) CNG system with direct injection. CNG Specs: Compressed Natural Gas Tank Capacity: Approximately 11.0 US Gallons Gasoline Equivalent(GGE) @3600 psi 70 degrees F (21 degrees C). Average CNG range approx 130-170 miles. Expiration date 2018. This hard to find 2003 Ford F-150 XL dual fuel Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) and gasoline pickup truck. Equipped with the reliable and powerful 5.4L Triton V8 engine and automatic transmission. CNG system functions normally on an everyday basis. This vehicle has been filled with CNG. This vehicle is super economical to drive, I have found CNG priced as low as $1.50 a gal and the highest is $2.75 per gal that I have found. Why should I buy a CNG/Bi Fuel Vehicle? • SAVE MONEY! CNG is about 1/3 less than regular unleaded and more stable in price. • CNG burns with practically no emissions compared to petroleum fuel so each mile you drive helps the environment....THINK GREEN helps you too, your engine will last longer. • CNG is safer (less volatile) than gasoline as it has a higher ignition temp, 1200 deg vs 800 deg. • CNG poses little if any environment risk of contamination and in the event of an accident where tanks are breached, it evaporates into the air with no spill.

Wrap up some fun with Ford's commercial vehicle configurator

Tue, 27 Aug 2013

Ford has combined multiple steps into one with its commercial vehicle configurator, which allows users to choose, design and place orders for the Transit, Transit Connect, E-Series vans and F-Series Super Duty trucks.
The most interesting part of the new configurator is a fairly robust design tool. Users are able to choose paint color and wrap the vehicle, and then create their own graphics. No materials are needed - Ford provides numerous background textures, text boxes, plenty of shapes and 20 categories of images including floral, construction, plumbing and skylines. Self-created designs or images can be uploaded to the system as well.
We played around with the design tool a bit and uploaded our own image to create the Autoblog Podcast Live van you see here. Feel free to check out the configurator and make your own design.

Recharge Wrap-up: Daimler spending big for fuel cells, Ford Go!Drive experiment advances

Fri, Mar 20 2015

Ford's Go!Drive experiment is entering its beta phase in London. The project, which is one of the automaker's global smart mobility experiments, uses a mobile app for on-demand carsharing of Ford Focus Electric and Ford Fiesta vehicles. The beta phase involves increasing the number of available vehicles from 20 to 50, and collecting new data from users. The program offers one-way rentals and guaranteed parking, with no membership fees and a cost of 26 cents per minute. Ford hopes to get 2,000 drivers involved in the program. Read more at Green Car Congress. Daimler will invest billions of dollars to upgrade the Mercedes-Benz Unterturkheim plant over the next few years. This year alone, it plans to spend $1.06 billion. The company expects cost savings "in the range of hundreds of millions of euros until 2020," while maintaining its workforce of 18,700 employees and adding 150 vocational training positions. The upgrades will allow the plant to become a center for building more efficient engines, hybrid powertrains and fuel cell systems. "Alternative drive systems are an important element of our future mobility," says Mercedes-Benz's Markus Schafer. "Their share of automotive production is set to steadily rise over the next few years, complementing our highly efficient engines within the portfolio. This is what we have laid the groundwork for today." Read more at Reuters, or in the press release below. The Department of Energy is providing $20 million in funding for the development of more efficient high speed industrial motors and drives. Ditching old motors and gearboxes for ones that use integrated power electronics could help decrease the energy consumption of the industrial sector, which currently uses more than 25 percent of the electricity generated in the US. The projects being funded will reduce losses and decrease the size of drive systems used in industries like petroleum refining and natural gas, which could affect the lifecycle efficiency of transportation fuels.
