1996 Ford Bronco on 2040-cars
Albuquerque, New Mexico, United States
For sale is my 1996 Ford Bronco. I bought this truck from the original owner years ago. I installed a 6" Superlift kit with the Extended Radius arms. This kit alone was more than $3,000 not including labor. I had it installed by Southwest 4x4 here in Albuquerque. I also had them change the gears to 4:11's front and rear for more get up and go, and 35" Dick Cepek "Fun Country" tires (I trimmed the bumper myself with a sawsall and I've yet to have anybody see it and not think it's a factory bumper. I also had TRUE dual exhaust installed by a local exhaust shop. The truck haS 97K miles on it and the 5.0 multiport injected Mustang V8 runs STRONG and SMOOTH. With the addition of the lift kit and new springs it rides like new, is tight, and feels awesome. The hard top in this light blue color looks horrible so I got rid of it and ordered this custom top from Texas Tops. I couldn't tell you how many times people stop me to ask about this truck since I put the top on. Also installed are a Cobra CB radio and a stereo with a boom box, sound is excellent. I am including as many pic's as possible because I want everybody to see how immaculate and clean this vehicle is... WITHOUT even a trip to the car wash - this is just how it always looks. There are no leaks, no rattles, no problems. There is a burn hole in the seat, a large but repaired chip in windshield, and a small crack in the dash. The tires rub on really really tight turns but it's not a problem. I changed the gauge cluster out because I wanted to have A tachometer. At the time of the change the vehicle had about 90K miles and the odo in the "new" cluster was reading 153K. So you need subtract about 63K miles to be accurate. I just had the vehicle serviced at a very reputable garage, including diff changes, tranny flush and fill, oil change, 4 wheel alignment, etc. This vehicle is very very reliable, drives straight and true, and you could easily plan a cross country trip or an off-road safari without fear of mechanical problems. THERE IS NO HARDTOP OR REAR SEAT, I was going for more of a jeep type of vehicle instead of an SUV. This Bronco will surprise you it is so fun to drive. With the 5-speed tranny and V8 engine, along with the 4:11 gears, it feels like you are driving a badass 5.0 mustang GT, it's that strong. And 4x4 capabilities are amazing.. it's got the clearance, the power, the wheel base, and the pedigree to leave Jeeps crying. I am selling this truck to make room for a work truck I just bought on Ebay myself, it was a quid pro quo deal I made with my wife. :(

Transit Courier completes Ford's new commercial van line, will we get it?
Sat, 13 Apr 2013This week Ford rolled out the 2014 Transit Courier, the fourth addition to its Transit range. Ford says its the first time for the nameplate in the compact van segment.
"Ford has now completely transformed its commercial vehicle line-up, with four all-new, class-leading Transits for European customers," said Barb Samardzich, vice president of product development for Ford Europe. "With the all-new Transit range, we expect sales to grow to 400,000 units per year by 2016, well over 50 percent more than we sell today."
When the Courier goes on sale in the Spring of 2014, it will offer more than 1,400 pounds of payload capacity, multiple mounting points for racks or other framework and a rear cargo area that can carry items 5.3 feet-long. An optional folding passenger seat boosts the cargo length to 8.5 feet.
Ford to spread all-wheel drive across performance range
Tue, Feb 10 2015Car and Driver took a closer look at the all-wheel-drive system in the Focus RS, Ford reps having made "broad hints" about it being applied to other performance vehicles. One spokesperson even said that he "can see this as one of those technologies of the future." That would make sense because, as C/D notes, it couldn't have been an inexpensive job to engineer the torque-vectoring unit for the Focus – one that can send 70 percent of torque to the rear wheels, and send 100 percent of that portion to either wheel if needed. C/D also clues into the system's close similarity to the AWD unit in the recently updated Range Rover Evoque, which is manufactured by Sweden's GKN Driveline. In the Evoque, torque vectoring is brake based and two electronically controlled clutches turn the Range into a front-wheel-drive crossover under 22 miles per hour. Ford wouldn't comment on the GKN Driveline connection, or even if there is one. No matter where it might come from, more performance Fords are good for every enthusiast, and we do not look an AWD, torque-vectoring gift horse in the mouth.

Feds Probe Power Steering In 938,000 Ford Midsize Cars
Mon, Oct 6 2014U.S. safety regulators are investigating complaints that the power-assisted steering can suddenly fail on three Ford midsize car models. The probe covers 938,000 Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ cars from the 2010 through 2012 model years, as well as the 2010 and 2011 Mercury Milan. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says it has received 508 complaints alleging that the cars lost power-assisted steering, causing increased steering effort. Four complaints say the problem caused crashes, but no injuries were reported. The agency says in documents posted Monday on its website that in many cases, a warning message appeared as the failure happened. Restarting the car corrected the problem in some cases, but the problem returned in others. The agency says it will check the scope and frequency of a problem. It could seek a recall. Ford says it's cooperating with the probe. Shares of Ford Motor Co. rose 6 cents to $14.65 in morning trading Monday. Its shares are down 14 percent over the past year.
