Wheelchair Van on 2040-cars
Orlando, Florida, United States
|
For sale is a 1997 Ford conversion van that in our opinion is in fair condition cosmetically and good condition mechanically. Previous to our ownership of it, the van had been gone through by a trusted local mechanic shop. We were told they added new front brake pads.
We have driven the van only short distances such as to school and back and have not put many miles on it We have had the rear A/C fan replaced with a brand new one and the wheel chair lift has had one of its electric motors professionally rebuilt. It should be noted as for the wheelchair lift, on occasion the remote button to lower the lift to the ground works intermittently and more often than not one must use the button inside the van to accomplish the lowering process. This has not been too much of an issue as the lift itself has been reliable. The van is being sold as is and we do not know the history of it. It drives well considering it is a large and heavy vehicle. The motor is a V8 and runs strong. The transmission is automatic and shifts as it should. The battery is in good condition. The tires hold air and have some tread left. This van may require maintenance as any used vehicle and is being sold as is. It has aluminum wheels and room to stand up inside (depending on your height) as well as mood lighting and a tv and vcr which we have never used so it is unknown whether they work or not. It has chrome bumpers and a trailer hitch and factory tinted privacy glass in the rear. The van comes with two additional captains chairs that are not mounted. It has an electric couch seat in the back that reclines. It has an aftermarket stereo in the dash. The carpet has some oil stains from the lift. All things considered it is a decent van and serves its purpose well. It has been our experience that to find a van such as this and at this price does not happen very often. I noticed in the auto check report, now that it is available, which describes a minor accident with a parked vehicle. So I looked over the van and there is a small dent behind the right rear wheel. Not very noticeable though as we did not see it till now. Thank you. |

Ford says C-Max mpg reduction has hurt sales
Tue, 22 Apr 2014The Ford C-Max is having a rough time. Sales for the five-door hybrid hatchback were down 39.1 percent in March to 2,295 cars, and sales from January through March were down 42.5 percent to 5,566 units. In an interview with The Detroit News, Ford Americas boss Joe Hinrichs places the blame on lowering the model's fuel economy rating.
"We're definitely seeing consideration on C-Max decline over time. We need to reinvest in the product because it's a great car," said Hinrichs to The Detroit News.
The company was hit with bad publicity over the C-Max when owners in multiple states filed class action lawsuits that alleged the cars weren't able to meet the stated fuel economy. Ford eventually re-rated the model from 47 miles per gallon city, highway and combined to 40 mpg city, 45 mpg highway and 43 mpg combined. To soften the blow of the change, the automaker sent checks to the owners to make up some of the difference. Initially, Ford claimed that demand remained strong for the hybrid. However, the latest sales figures and Hinrichs' statement seem to show the opposite.
Ford looks back on 50 years of the Mustang in Detroit
Tue, 14 Jan 2014Ford has something special sitting in its booth here at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show. In fact, it brought two special somethings in the form of the Ford Mustang 1 Concept that first saw the light of day in 1962 and the very first production Mustang that rolled off the production line in 1964.
These classic creations are sharing floor space with the brand-new 2014 Mustang in honor of the pony car's 50th Anniversary. Since Ford's latest 'Stang already made its auto show debut (at a number of locations, including Los Angeles), we think it's pretty cool that the Blue Oval did something special for its home-town show.
Check out both the Mustang 1 Concept and first production 1964.5 Mustang above and below.
2014 Ford Transit Connect Taxi hopes to fare thee well
Mon, 23 Sep 2013New York City may have selected its taxi of tomorrow, but there are still plenty of municipalities across the US with citizens that depend on yellow livery cars to get them across town in a jiffy. That's why Ford is going ahead with this, the new Transit Connect Taxi.
Based on the 2014 Transit Connect, the TC Taxi boasts a number of features designed to make the compact van appeal to discerning taxi drivers and their fares, with the most notable upgrade being a standardized prep package to convert the 2.5-liter four to run on liquefied petroleum or compressed natural gas. The clean-burning fuel options will allow operators to save on fuel costs and cut down on pollution without sacrificing performance.
A lower load floor and a new twist-beam rear suspension are meant to improve the riding experience for passengers, while the longer 2014 Transit Connect sports extra cargo space as well. In addition to the CNG/LPG conversion, the Transit Connect Taxi can also be easily modified for wheelchair access. Drivers, meanwhile, will have access to optional goodies like Sync with MyFord Touch and a rear-view camera.
