Up for your consideration one 1990 Ford Falcon Class B camper van.  This van was purchased by me last fall so that my 90 year old grandmother could travel to Ithica New York to see her Great Grandson at college.  (she has to ride laying down)  We purchased a Class C Camper this week so we can take more people with us so we are selling our class B.   I purchased this class B camper because it was in excellent condition for the year it was low mileage and no rust.  After purchasing the van I went through it from front to back making sure everything was in working condition and repaired whatever needed fixed.  All RV appliances are  in working order the roof AC blows cold, stove, furnace (will run you out it is great), stove, microwave, sink, toilet , hot water heater and shower.  The RV has a fresh water holding tank and DC pump under the jackknife couch that works well while you are on the road so you can use the toilet.  The RV has a black water holding tank and grey water holding tank. The RV has a 7-9 gallon propane tank that runs the Fridge while you run down the road.   I have the paper work from when the van was purchased new I am the third owner if you do not count the sales lot I purchased it from.  The van is a three quarter ton van the pervious owner added one ton springs at a service center to the rear of the van he pulled a small trailer behind the van to antique engine shows.  The van has always been stored inside the last owner stored it under a lean too on his barn and the passenger side shows some fading on the stripes due to this.  I am going to list the repairs I remember I have spent $4500.00 over the last year upgrading this van and making sure it is ready to drive across country.  I have taken this van to New York twice since we purchased it.  The last trip was Memorial Day weekend we averaged 12-13 MPG going 70 MPH with the Air on.  The cruise control works great and we used it the entire trip.  If you have any questions please contact me at 618-943-0269  David Walker The van is listed locally and could sell before this listing ends so if you want it do not wait.  Camper has a class three hitch and seven way plug in.  Seat belts for four and sleeps four also.  Loft Ladder included with the camper.

Ford reveals concept trucks that ultimately became Atlas

Wed, 03 Apr 2013

The Ford Atlas Concept was one of the quiet success stories of the 2013 Detroit Auto Show, and now Ford has given us a quick glimpse as to how that creation came to be. Designers actually combined two early sketches to build the Atlas. One, called the Bullet Train, is a futuristic, aerodynamic creation, while the other, aptly named the Locomotive, features the squared off proportions we're familiar with.
Once designers settled on the truck's proportions, they began nailing down exactly which attributes they wanted the final design to have. The Concept's notched windshield originated as a forked glass roof that seamlessly transitioned into the windscreen.
Likewise, designers wanted to fit the truck's tailgate with a storage compartment for tools and a first aid kit, but settled on the dual-purpose step/cargo cradle. Interestingly enough, the concept's active aero shutter wheels actually originated in some of the earliest sketches. Check out the photos and slides here for a closer look.

Is it time for American carmakers to give up on dual-clutch transmissions? [w/poll]

Mon, 22 Jul 2013

Last week, in the midst of Detroit's first days seeking relief in Chapter 9 of the bankruptcy code, Automotive News contributor Larry P. Vellequette penned an editorial suggesting that American car companies raise the white flag on dual clutch transmissions and give up on trying to persuade Americans to buy cars fitted with them. Why? Because, Vellequette says, like CVT transmissions, they "just don't sound right or feel right to American drivers." (Note: In the article, it's not clear if Vellequette is arguing against wet-clutch and dry-clutch DCTs or just dry-clutch DCTs, which is what Ford and Chrysler use.) The article goes on to state that Ford and Chrysler have experimented with DCTs and that both consumers and the automotive press haven't exactly given them glowing reviews, despite their quicker shifts and increased fuel efficiency potential compared to torque-converter automatic transmissions.
Autoblog staffers who weighed in on the relevance of DCTs in American cars generally disagreed with the blanket nature of Vellequette's statement that they don't sound or feel right, but admit that their lack of refinement compared to traditional automatics can be an issue for consumers. That's particularly true in workaday cars like the Ford Focus and Dodge Dart, both of which have come in for criticism in reviews and owner surveys. From where we sit, the higher-performance orientation of such transmissions doesn't always meld as well with the marching orders of everyday commuters (particularly if drivers haven't been educated as to the transmission's benefits and tradeoffs), and in models not fitted with paddle shifters, it's particularly hard for drivers to use a DCT to its best advantage.
Finally, we also note that DCT tuning is very much an evolving science. For instance, Autoblog editors who objected to dual-clutch tuning in the Dart have more recently found the technology agreeable in the Fiat 500L. Practice makes perfect - or at least more acceptable.

Ken Block ain't got a care about ruining his wheels

Tue, 22 Jan 2013

During a drifting session at Irwindale Speedway in California, Ken Block made a boo-boo that would send a number of drivers immediately back to the infield. But there's an answer to "What do you do when you bash the wall while drifting and your wheel explodes?" and there's completely different answer when the question begins with the phrase, "When you're Ken Block..."
Instead of us telling you how Block handled the calamity in his Ford Fiesta competition car, you can watch it happen in the video below. You can probably also guess what it is - but it's more fun to watch.
