What is CNG???

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 me synthesized through chemical processes. Cyber_lot. 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.

Why should I buy a CNG/Bi Fuel Vehicle?

SAVE MONEY! CNG is about 1/3 less than reguar unleaded and more stable in price. AS LOW AS 99 CENTS PER GAL IN SOME AREAS!
CNG burns with practically no emissions compared to petroleum fuel so each mile you drive helps the environment....THINK GREEN
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 Cyber_lot
CNG fill stations are growing more and more each day. Check the links below for fill station locations across the US.
You can fill up at home using a Phil Fuelmaker device if you have a natural gas line. Cyber_lot No more trips to the gas station. Tax deductible.
Most states allow you to drive solo in the HOV lane.
CNG is not corrosive like gasoline and wears MUCH easier on a motor. Most CNG fueled engines require oil changes less frequently and sparkplugs last almost forever. Overall engine life is usually significantly extended. Cyber_lot
Unlike hybrid electric/gas cars, there are no costly batteries ($6000) to replace
Unlike hybrid electric vehicles, the CNG drivetrain is the same as the gasoline counterpart and can be serviced by most mechanics. Cyber_lot. Only the CNG fuel system requires specially trained service technicians.
There may be tax credits/deductions available for CNG vehicle owners and for the purchase of a Phil Fuelmaker (check with IRS and state tax authorities)
Be the first person in your town to sport a CNG ride. Cyber_lot Almost always a conversation starter when you open the trunk!

Condition

Drivetrain

Engine starts up and runs strong. Only 77k miles. NO knocks, NO smoke, NO dripping engine leaks. Underside of engine is dry as you can see in the pics. Transmission shifts into and through all gears as it should. Cruises at highway speed. At idle there is an occasional rattle against the floor from the exhaust I believe. Nothing falling off or anything major, just mentioning it. The 5.4L Triton V8 is one of the most durable and efficient 8cyl engines Ford produced and should easily last 300K+ miles with proper maintenance. This was a fleet maintained vehicle with regular servicing, including oil changes at proper intervals.

Exterior

Paint has most of its factory shine as you can see. No major/large dents or rot on the body. There are dings, scrapes, scratches, and minor blemishes all around the body. Most of the scratches were from the removal of decals. The edge of the driver side door and fender is a little wrinkled (see pic). Door opens and closes fine. Overall the body is straight. Please keep in mind this is not a showroom new but in average condition for a work van and a vehicle of this age.

Interior

Interior is in fair condition with average wear. There is some wear in the fabric on the left edge of the driver seat. Rubber floor is in good condition with no major or excessive wear. There are some scuffs on the plastic interior panels, mostly on the engine cover, as you can see in the pics. The volume button on the radio is loose. Interior is fresh and clean and has been detailed. A/C blows cold and heat blows hot.

Wheels and Tires

· Tires have approx 50%+ tread remaining. Matching set of factory Ford hubcaps.

CNG System

I have fueled up with CNG and not observed any leaks. Everything looks to be in order and system holds pressure as it should.

I have test driven this vehicle over 20 miles. I have tried to describe the condition to the best of my ability but this is merely a guideline and repairs may be required. I do recommend having this vehicle shipped due to the limited availability of CNG stations in some areas. As I recommend to all my customers, you should have your mechanic look over any newly purchased vehicle before extensive use. I have tried to list as many details about this vehicle as I can, including known defects. There may be deficiencies that I am not aware of so buyers are encouraged to inspect in person. FAILURE OF PROSPECTIVE BUYERS TO INSPECT VEHICLE OR ASK FOR CLARIFICATION ON CONDITION WILL NOT CONSTITUTE NON-DISCLOSURE OF DEFECTS OR CONDITION ON SELLERS PART. This was previously a fleet/lease vehicle and may have greater wear and tear than private vehicles. If you are local, I encourage and welcome you to come down and test drive the car for yourself or have an independent inspection completed PRIOR to bidding. There will be no price adjustments or cancellation of sale for failure to do so. I am happy to answer any questions so feel free to e-mail me or call.

Balance to be paid within 3 days via certified/cashier's check from a verifiable institution, US postal money order (no other's will be accepted due to counterfeit MO's going around), or cash (in person only, DO NOT mail cash).

Legal Info

Please only bid if you have the funds available and intend to complete the transaction. Ebay is a great place and you guys are wonderful but the occasional fraudulent bidder ruins it for everyone. Non-paying bidders will be reported to eBay as well as the appropriate authorities as interfering in interstate commerce is a federal offense. If you have negative feedback please contact me if you wish to bid or your bid(s) will be canceled. By bidding, you agree to all the terms of this auction. Item is sold with no extended warranty.

Average transaction prices climb to a record $36,270 in January

Sat, Feb 3 2018

The automotive sector made a hash of the numbers last month, a mess of pluses and minuses clogging the transaction-price charts according to Kelley Blue Book. The overall industry rose one percent, even though buyers bought fewer cars and light vehicles in January 2018 vs 2017 using the selling-day adjusted rate. Due to January transaction prices rising to $36,270, a record for January, the value of new vehicles sold climbed more than $1 billion compared to January 2017. KBB's transaction prices don't include customer incentives, which changes the complexion slightly; average incentive spending rose to just over ten percent. The average transaction price in December 2017 was $36,756, so January dropped a bit - nothing unexpected, with the month annually blamed for "January doldrums." More revealing is the fact that the average transaction price in January 2017 was $34,910. This year's plumped-up figure came courtesy of the continued shift to crossovers, SUVs, and light trucks, which shouldn't surprise anyone who's read an automotive blog in the past 20 years. That category comprised nearly 70 percent of new vehicle sales for the month. Some manufacturers profited more than others, though. Fiat Chrysler managed 12.8 percent fewer sales in January compared year-on-year, but the company's vehicles sold for $1,300 more. The Ford brand suffered a 6.3-percent dip in sales, but brand transaction prices increased $2,000, while a Lincoln sold for $8,700 more on average. General Motors sold more cars and sold them for more money; overall GM transaction prices rose four percent, or $1,270, while a GMC traded hands for seven-percent more than in January 2017 and a Cadillac got $2,300 more on average. Of KBB's listed automakers, the Volkswagen Group got the most of out its customers, transaction prices rising at the German automaker by 5.6 percent to $42,243 in January 2018 compared to a year earlier. American Honda followed with a 4.3-percent increase to $28,991, GM in third at 4.1 percent to $40,313. Find your next car at Autoblog using our new and used car listings or the Car Finder tool. Broken out by segment, minivans rocked the table, transaction prices leaping by 7.9 percent to $35,380 compared to January a year earlier. Luxury cars boasted the next-highest rise, at 3.6 percent to $58,533.

2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 vs. 2019 Ram 1500 vs. 2018 Ford F-150: How they compare

Mon, Jan 15 2018

The full-size pickup truck market is seriously hot right now. Both Ram and Chevrolet have introduced completely redesigned trucks, the 2019 Ram 1500 and the 2019 Chevy Silverado, and as the companies slowly roll each one out, more and more information comes to light. We've put together this comparison post to help you keep track of all the features and specifications of each of these new models, along with the updated 2018 Ford F-150. Among the stats we'll take a look at are engines, power, fuel economy, trim levels, weight and more. Weight savings Both the 2019 Ram 1500 and 2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 have gone on a diet for the new model year, similar to the one the F-150 went on in 2015. The Silverado is the weight-loss leader, having shed 450 pounds when comparing quad-cab V8 models. The Ram 1500 lost 225 pounds compared to the current truck. Both trucks achieve their weight loss in part due to the use of aluminum parts. On the Silverado, the hood, doors, and tailgate are aluminum, while on the Ram, just the hood and tailgate are aluminum on the body. Compare that to the F-150, which uses aluminum for all exterior body panels for a total weight loss of up to 732 pounds, which makes the aluminum-intensive F-150 the weight-loss leader. View 160 Photos Engines and transmissions There's only a bit of overlap in powertrains on the Ram 1500 and Chevy Silverado. Each has a V8 for the top engine. The Ram's is a 5.7-liter Hemi V8 making 395 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque. The Silverado will once again use a 6.2-liter V8 as its range topper with the same 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque as the current model. Both of these V8s boast some extra fuel saving technology. The Chevy's 6.2-liter (and some 5.3-liters) comes with the company's latest cylinder deactivation system that can shut off any or nearly all of the eight cylinders. The Ram's V8 boasts an optional 48-volt mild-hybrid system that, in addition to likely helping fuel economy, can provide up to 130 pound-feet of torque right off the line. With the Ram, fuel economy sees an improvement of 2 mpg in the city and combined ratings for 17 and 19 respectively. Highway fuel economy improves by 1 mpg to 23 with two-wheel drive and 22 with four-wheel drive. The Silverado's 6.2-liter V8 only improves city fuel economy by 1 mpg to 16, and actually loses 1 mpg on the highway. The new 5.3-liter engine with the fancy cylinder deactivation does see an improvement over the simpler version.

Ford's Mulally makes shortlist for Microsoft CEO

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

Ford CEO Alan Mulally has made the short list to take over tech giant Microsoft, lending further credence to rumors that the 68-year-old former Boeing exec would ditch Dearborn and move to Redmond.
The report comes from Reuters, which claims that alongside Mulally, former Nokia CEO Stephen Elop and three candidates from within Microsoft are on the short list to succeed Steve Ballmer at the company's helm, although previous reports claim the Ford exec is the number one candidate. Mulally is currently working without a contract, although Bill Ford seems to believe that he isn't likely to depart. Despite this belief, Ford was quoted just last month talking about the depth of talent on the Blue Oval's executive team.
"There is no change from what we announced last November. Alan remains fully focused on continuing to make progress on our One Ford plan. We do not engage in speculation," said Ford spokesman Jay Cooney.
