This Bronco is one of the last ones to be built.  In 1996, Ford made several upgrades to the F150/Bronco line before the body style was discontinued including: roller-rockers, OBD-II compliant emissions, reinforced B-pillars (all other model year Broncos crack just above the door from body flex) and improved passenger-side dash support (all other model years break the support bracket causing the dash to sag).

Everything works perfectly on this truck including the rear window (both switch and key), the electronic 4X4 transfer case, the power mirrors, windows and door locks, and the airbag and cruise control.  The tires are brand new 31" BFG All-Terrains (less than 500 miles), the steering linkage is all new, and the front end has been aligned to spec.  The heater core is brand new, and the cooling system was flushed and filled with fresh anti-freeze and has no leaks.  The a/c compressor and accumulator have been replaced with all new valves and o-rings and the system was flushed and filled with new refrigerant and oil.  The fan works perfectly and the a/c blows COLD.  The fuel pump has been replaced as well as the fuel filter.  The muffler has been upgraded to a less-restrictive Flowmaster.  The previous owner told me that the transmission had been replaced recently, and I believe it because it has very positive shifts and doesn't hesitate or slip at all.  The engine starts up easily and runs very well (has very low marks on the smog emission inspection).  This truck came from the factory with remote keyless entry, and this sale includes two complete sets of keys with working remotes.  It also came from the factory with the color-matched running board steps.  The factory automatic hubs have been replaced with quality after-market manual locking hubs (an upgrade to the less-reliable automatic hubs).  This has the factory tow package, which includes a 7-pin trailer plug, heavier springs and quad shocks.  That option requires the heavy-duty cooling package which includes a larger radiator, extra cooling slots in the bumper, an auxiliary transmission cooler, and an oil cooler.

This Bronco has been exclusively owned and operated in the dry climate of Southern California, therefore the body and frame are completely rust-free (as many Broncos are prone to rust).  The paint has been polished and waxed and shines like new!  It has clearly not been abused off-road, since there is no build-up of mud underneath and no damage to the under carriage.  There is one obvious dent in the upper left of the tailgate, but no paint damage.  There is a dent in the front edge of the hood with some paint damage.  The rear bumper is tweaked and appears to have contacted the left rear body panel.  There are other minor blemishes on the body but no significant dents, and no paint repair.  Check the vehicle history, the title is clear and it has not been involved in any accidents.  Non-smoker (I don't smoke, and neither does the truck).

Ford ditching Microsoft in favor of BlackBerry QNX for next-gen Sync?

Mon, 24 Feb 2014

Ask the average consumer - at least, those who follow the goings-on in the automotive industry - which carmaker they'd most closely associate Microsoft, and the answer you'd most likely get would be Ford. The Blue Oval automaker, after all, was at the forefront of bringing Microsoft technology into cars with its pioneering Sync system, and, though reality didn't turn out as such, Ford's CEO was recently touted as a potential future head of the Redmond-based software giant. But that relationship, according to the latest reports, could be coming to an end.
Alan Mullaly kiboshed the idea of leaving Dearborn for Redmond, but more importantly Ford is tipped to be ditching Microsoft in developing its next-generation Sync system. In its place, Ford is expected to partner with BlackBerry's QNX division.
Now, before you go balking "BlackBerry?! But they're finished!" consider that QNX is (or at least was) an independent entity that Research In Motion (as BlackBerry's Ontario-based parent company was then known) just happened to have bought back in 2010. QNX provides control systems to everything from nuclear power plants and UAVs to automakers like Audi, BMW and Porsche.

2016 Ford Focus RS mule spotted on US soil

Tue, 17 Jun 2014

Okay Ford, this is what we like to see. One of our intrepid spy photographers has captured a vehicle that we weren't even sure would see the light of day - the next Focus RS. While this is pretty clearly a mule based on the current Focus ST, as our spy points out, there are a number of giveaways about this hot hatch's true nature.
Indication number one that all is not right with this Focus is the heavily camo'd front fascia, which has been completely reconfigured for duty on the RS. It boasts significantly larger grilles that are meant to accommodate what is likely the 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder that's destined for the 2015 Ford Mustang. Considering that, then, we can expect around 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque from the hottest of Foci, although it's entirely possible that the production model could climb even higher, to around 330 hp.
The front fascia tweaks are complemented in the back by a modified rear bumper, which fails at hiding a pair of exhaust tips quite unlike the standard Focus ST's center-exit exhaust. Other obvious changes include the wheel/tire/brake package on this particular car. Larger 19-inch wheels are shod in super-sticky Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires in 235/35/19 while the brakes feature what we think are four-piston calipers, possibly from Brembo, up front.

Ford Australia reveals updated Territory, Falcon via Twitter

Mon, 28 Jul 2014

Ford may have tied together much of its global lineup under the One Ford campaign, but one market where it still offers unique products is Australia. That will soon draw to a close as well, but before it does, the Blue Oval's Aussie operations are rolling out refreshed versions of its two unique products. For the moment, Ford isn't revealing much in the way of powertrain details, but it has shown off a couple of snaps of the revised products on its in-market Twitter feed.
First up is the new Territory. The SUV is neither based on a front-drive crossover platform nor on a truck frame, but shares its rear-drive underpinnings with the Falcon, taking it a step beyond the Falcon wagon alongside which it sits in Ford's Aussie range. Like the outgoing third-generation SZ Territory, the facelifted version is dominated by a narrow grille and larger front air dam, but further punctuates its big-chinned look with more rugged lower cladding and other metallic inserts that bring its look up to date.
And there's the Falcon, which Ford revealed in XR8 trim just last week and is now presenting in G6E spec. If the XR8 is the performance model, the G6E is the luxury version, swapping in more refined trim like a chrome-slat grille (instead of a black honeycomb), chrome foglamp surrounds, less-aggressive multi-spoke wheels (instead of five-spokes) and a flatter hood (instead of a power bulge). Otherwise, it looks essentially the same as the one we saw last week, its facelift bringing it more in line with the smaller, front-drive Mondeo (which we know here as the Fusion) and other members of the Ford family.
