Finished from the factory in Harbor Blue, the truck received a driver-quality repaint in metallic light blue with a black half cab and trim during current ownership. The weatherstripping, door handles, hinges, locks, limiting straps, and mirrors were replaced at that time, while the rocker panels were reportedly replaced during previous ownership. The front and rear fenders have been cut and spray-on liner has been applied to the bed. Additional features include an aftermarket rear bumper, wheel arch flares, side steps, a roll bar, and a locking cargo drawer. Areas of cracked paint are documented in the gallery below.

Black-finished 16″ MB alloy wheels are wrapped in 265/75 Cooper Discoverer ATP tires, and a spare is mounted in the bed. The truck is equipped with power steering, and power-assisted front disc brakes, and modifications include a 1″ body lift kit and an aftermarket front sway bar. The seller states the locking front hubs, brake lines, front hubs, springs, shocks, ball joints, bushings, and steering linkage components were replaced and the rear brakes have been serviced.

Bucket seats sourced from a Ford Focus Titanium are upholstered in black leather with silver stitching. Equipment includes a FiTech Go-EFI controller, Auto Airair conditioning, a RetroSound Bluetooth stereo, a B&M short throw shifter, and a center console with a locking storage compartment and cupholders. The dash pad, armrests, and vinyl floor covers were replaced by the seller along with switchgear, window cranks, door handles, and pedal pads.

A leather-wrapped Grant steering wheel frames Dakota Digital instrumentation including a 120-mph speedometer and an analog tachometer with a digital readout.

The 5.0-liter V8 was reportedly sourced from a 2001 Ford Explorer and installed by the seller. It is said to have received a replacement timing chain, distributor, belts, hoses, and oil and water pumps. Modifications include the following components:

Power is delivered to the rear or all four wheels via a five-speed AX-15 manual transmission with an Advanced Adapters kit and a dual-range Dana 20 transfer case, a Dana 30 front axle, and a limited-slip rear end. The seller notes the transfer case and axles were resealed and the driveshafts were replaced.

Fallon picks Ford F-150 King Ranch, launches dealership contest

Tue, 01 Apr 2014

New truck! Jimmy Fallon of The Tonight Show has been searching for the perfect new truck for a few weeks now, soliciting help from all corners in the process. Last night, Fallon made the announcement that the Ford F-150 King Ranch - in all of its cowboy glory - had been picked as his big winner.
To add some more spice to a storyline that now dips deeply into the realm of the advertorial, Fallon also announced a contest to see which Ford dealership would get the privilege of selling him the King Ranch. Dubbed "Fingers on a 4x4" The Tonight Show has invited 10 dealer reps from around the country to keep their hands on Jimmy's F-150 for as long as possible. Last salesperson standing wins.
Watch Fallon make his pick and introduce the dealer reps below, and be sure to click on the second video for a live-streaming feed of Fingers on a 4x4 in action (the contest seems to be going strong).

Ford Everest Concept shows China also has an affinity for big trucks

Mon, 21 Apr 2014

The Ford Everest Concept SUV at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show shows the future of the Blue Oval's truck line in China. While a concept for now, we're told that JMC, Ford's Chinese joint-venture partner, will build a production version sometime in the near future.
With design from Ford's Asia Pacific design team, the handsome seven-passenger SUV shows off some very muscular styling with wraparound headlights that hook into the contours of the angular trapezoidal grille. The beltline rises up the body in the rear and makes the back appear higher than the front. The rear is made from hard, chiseled contours that give the truck a very tough look. The Everest looks ready for some rough roads.
Ford is keeping the interior and mechanical details about the Everest a secret for now, but the SUV is rumored to share some components with the overseas Ranger pickup. The company has no plans to sell the truck in North America. Scroll down to read the official announcement, including the few details on its production.

Ford recalls 422,000 SUVs for rear view camera display that may fail

Thu, May 18 2023

WASHINGTON — Ford is recalling 422,000 sport utility vehicles in the U.S. because the video output may fail, preventing the rear view camera image from displaying. The recall covers 2020 through 2023 Ford Explorer, Lincoln Aviator, and 2020-2022 Lincoln Corsair SUVs with a 360-degree camera. The recall expands and replaces prior Ford callbacks for the same issue in 2021 and 2023. Ford last year updated the image processing module (IPMB) software in an effort to address the issue. Ford said on Thursday it is "working together with suppliers to identify root cause and provide the correct remedy as quickly as possible". The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said the loss of the rear view camera image can reduce the driver's rear visibility, increasing the risk of a crash. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed on June 26. Last year, Ford said it had reports of 17 minor crashes relating to the recall issue and more than 2,100 warranty reports but no reports of injuries. The NHTSA in August 2021 opened an investigation after Ford in 2020 recalled 620,246 vehicles for another rear camera issue. The investigation is reviewing if Ford had recalled the vehicles in a timely fashion and if it recalled enough vehicles. Recalls Ford Lincoln Crossover SUV
