It has a few dents and the bed wall needs to be bent inward 1 inch because a loader hit it from the inside and now it doesnt meet with the tailgate latch on the right side. it is correctable if you put a board of wood along the outside and push on it with a bobcat or front loader of some sort. i dont have one... it starts and smokes blue a bit for about 3-8 minutes until it warms up, then it doesnt really smoke much at all after that. the engine would need to eventually be rebuilt but it has miles left in it. im selling it because i dont use it, i dont do that kind of work anymore. it is reliable, it has all new glow plugs. the transmission was recently rebuilt with an oversize clutch package. all new brake components! newish back tires. new fuel Lift Pump. dual tanks both work. for the price its a great truck. its what you would expect for an inexpensive used work truck. it is exempt from NJ inspection. vehicle is located in 08759 manchester NJ. it came from GA so its mostly rust free. i used to live in GA and i drove it up 1 year ago, 800 miles no problems. both tanks have a good amount of diesel in them, the truck does not come with any of the items seen in the bed.
On Aug-17-13 at 00:59:57 PDT, seller added the following information:one more note, the brake abs module is bad, so i unplugged it, i dont like abs personally anyways, and the brakes work great. if you plug in the abs module it keeps the rear brakes locked after a few stops. with it unplugged the abs light is on, on this truck the abs module just dumps the rear brakes if it detects lockup, a horrible design if you ask me... anyways i just want to be up front about everything that i know of about the truck. if you dont drive it for a few days to a week the brakes become very sensitive for the first few stops, after that there normal. this doesnt bother me and i dont consider it a real issue, again just letting you know all the details.

Ford's Troller introduces even more rugged T4 SUVs in Sao Paulo
Mon, 27 Oct 2014The Bronco may be long gone from Ford dealerships back home, but down in Brazil its spirit lives on in the Troller brand. Founded independently in 1995, Ford do Brasil took over Troller in 2007 and has been teasing us with its rough-and-tumble SUVs ever since. So with the Sao Paulo Motor Show coming up, Troller has revealed this special version of the T4.
Looking even more rugged than the existing three-door sport-ute, this special T4 packs a snorkel, winch, upgraded bumpers and knobbier tires. We're not sure what to make of the "sophisticated" brown and tan paint job, but send it north and the Jeep Wrangler would have a new challenger on its hands... especially since the Toyota FJ Cruiser was discontinued.
Alongside the version seen here, Troller will also exhibit another T4 outfitted for rescue workers. Scope out initial details of both in the press release below, enclosed in both its original Portuguese and auto-translated into English.
Your official Ford Transit specs are here, $29,565* to start
Wed, 04 Jun 2014Ford has released the full list of pricing and specs on its new Transit, the replacement for the long-lived E-Series cargo van. Prices are set to start at $29,565 and can increase rapidly from there, depending on length, engine and wheelbase, among other options.
Let's talk first about those new engines. The base is the familiar 3.7-liter, naturally aspirated V6. It boasts 275 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque and can return up to 14 miles per gallon in the city and 19 mpg on the highway. This engine can also be adapted to run on LPG or compressed natural gas. Of course, there are better alternatives, for a price, the first of which is Ford's well-received, 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6. It packs 310 hp and a best-in-class 400 lb-ft of torque (available at just 2,500 rpm) while matching the naturally aspirated engine in both city and highway fuel economy.
Then, there's the diesel. With a 3.2-liter, five-cylinder diesel mill at its disposal, the Transit generates 350 lb-ft between 1,500 and 2,500 rpm, along with 185 hp. This engine hasn't been rated by the EPA, although we'd be really, really surprised if it didn't handily best either of the gas-powered engines in fuel efficiency. A six-speed automatic is standard, regardless of engine.
Ford rethinking vehicle launch strategy
Tue, 07 May 2013With a new boss at the helm, Ford is looking at new ways to improve its vehicle launches in North America to prevent recent issues that have popped up with models like the Lincoln MKZ, Ford Escape and Ford Fusion. Speaking with Automotive News, Ford's new president of the Americas, Joe Hinrichs, revealed a few ways the automaker plans to avoid early build issues such as the engine fires on certain 2013 Escape and Fusion models and months-long delays for customers to receive their MKZs.
It sounds like the root of the problems may have been Ford's relationship with suppliers compounded by the fact that the product surge came on the heels of the recent industry-crippling recession, and in the AN article, Hinrichs says improvements are being made to reduce problems during the launch of new or redesigned models. Three such improvements that were implemented during the first quarter of this year including more rigorous quality comparisons, better use of computer technology to catch major problems sooner and hiring engineers to work closer with suppliers.
