I am selling my 2001 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer All Wheel Driver ( AWD )SUV, I am only selling it because I am getting married on September 14th and I am hoping to free up some money for it. I have four other vehicles hence the low miles. This Explorer is fully loaded, it has factory leather seats ( not heated ), sunroof that works as it should, the factory compass and temperature guage works as it should- you can see it in the pictures along with the sunroof. It has an aftermarket Pioneer CD player and it also has a  6 disc cd changer that came with it from the factory in the arm rest, it was working before I put the aftermark CD player in it.

The Exterior: As you can see it has a 4 inch lift that was professionally installed in 2008 it does have a newer set of meaty Hankook tires. The paint and body are in good shape it does have a few typical dents and dings from being driven. However there is NO RUST on the body and the undercarrage is very clean and rust free as well, which you can see in the pics. I have been very meticulous about keeping it clean and waxed. The factory rims have also been treated and cleaned every year and still look sharp. I do have 2 spare tires and rims for the Explorer, you will also note the extras. This Explorer comes with an aftermarket grill guard and top luggage rack also a few additional lights that do work, the ones on the grill work on a switch- the ones on the luggage rack will need to be hooked back up

The Interior: The interior is good shape, showing typical wear for being 12 years old and being used as family vehicle, I have kept it clean and vaccumed, also treated with Armorall, The leather seats are in good shape, however the drivers seat does have a small crack on the upper right hands side which you can see in the pics. This Explorer is also equiped with font and side airbags, dual climate control for the front and back. I also still have the factory cargo shield for the back. It does not have the 3rd row seating.

The motor: Is a 302 5.0L V8, It does have an upgraded K&N Air intake, the oil has been changed as it should. The battery is 2 years old, but does not have any problems. The transmission shifts as it should, the brakes are newer and all work as they should. The exhuast may or may not need to be replaced in the near future, it does have a slight barley noticable noise at low idle, however it does disipate once you put it in drive and take off.

Hopefully I have answered any questions,I have described this vehicle the best I can please keep in mind it is 12 years old, it is in good shape but you are not bidding on a brand new vehicle it has been a very good vehicle for me, very reliable and great in snow and ice, especially in significant accumulations. I have taken my family of four on many long trips with out hesitation and I would still do the same. I live close to Peoria Illinois, and Rock Island and I am about 2 hours south of Chicago. I would be willing to meet winning bidder if it helps with in a reasonable distance from my house, I will accept payments in cash or certified check ( but will need to speak to your bank for exchanging). Feel free to email me with any questions.

Thanks for looking

GM readying aluminum-body fullsize pickups

Wed, 19 Feb 2014

Ford's extensive use of aluminum in its 2015 F-150 is a big deal. A really big deal. Big enough, in fact, that General Motors is reportedly changing its fullsize pickup strategy. According to The Wall Street Journal, The General has locked in partnerships with Alcoa Inc. and Novelis Inc. - companies that will supply aluminum for the next-generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra trucks.
"Ford's introduction of the 2015 F-150 pickup truck was a game changer, and it's the first, not the last, conversion of this type," Novelis spokesperson Charles Belbin told the Journal. The switch to aluminum has allowed Ford to shave roughly 700 pounds off its fullsize truck's curb weight. And while official mileage ratings have not been announced, the weight loss should go a long way for improving efficiency, especially when combined other efficiency-minded improvements including better aerodynamics and new, turbocharged V6 engines.
Of course, aluminum-bodied cars are nothing new. But extensive use of aluminum in a major, best-selling product like the Ford F-150 is expected to kick off widespread use of this weight-saving material as availability rises and cost decreases. The WSJ reports that GM had originally explored the idea of moving to aluminum pickups back in 2008, but abandoned the idea due to cost concerns amid economic woes.

1947 Chevy rat rod pickup leaves rubber and smoke in its wake

Thu, 08 May 2014

Cool comes in multiple flavors. One one hand, we have the sophisticated attraction of svelte design and the efficient use of power. Of course, on the other hand there is the allure of being the bad boy and going against the grain. That is part of the appeal of rat rods. Ideally, they are built without rules to an owner's specific tastes, and this widened and heavily modified 1947 Chevrolet pickup rod is a perfect example of that spirit.
Coming down the highway with a bent grille, rusted body and pouring smoke, it looks like the pickup from hell. It backs up the looks with some very impressive mechanicals too. Owner Troy Gubser says that the truck packs a Ford Power Stroke diesel with to 42 pounds of boost that runs out of 8-inch exhaust stacks at the back. He claims it managed 505 horsepower and 885 pound-feet of torque on the dyno. To harness all that power, this hot rod has a ZF five-speed manual gearbox with a ceramic clutch and short-throw shifter. Plus, it has cool little features like a doorbell on the tailgate that operates an air horn.
You might not expect a truck like this to actually be useful, but it has a fifth wheel coupling to haul an RV around drag races and car shows. The air suspension also probably keeps the ride fairly comfy when Gubser wants it to be. Scroll down to check out this beastly rat rod pickup and watch it engage in some diesel drag racing. Warning, there is some NSFW language.
