Specifications:

1998 Ford Ranger, 2 Wheel Drive, Regular Cab 2-Door, Ford 2.5 Liter 4-Cylinder Gas Engine, 5-Speed Manual Transmission, Hydraulic Brakes, A/C, Heat, Manual Windows/Locks/Seats, AM/FM Stereo, P225/705R14 Tires, 112” Wheelbase, GVWR – 4,320#, Front GAWR – 2,200#, Rear GAWR – 2,550#, SN: 1FTYR10C7WUC57909, 80,888 Actual Miles – Not a misprint actual miles.

This pickup until about a week ago was owned by a local government agency (gravity drainage district) that recently replaced it with a new one, replaced because of age not because of miles or because of any problems, owned by the agency since it was new in 1998 – one owner. We purchased it directly from them along with some other items, not from an auction or from a dealer or broker, we don’t need a single cab pickup right now so turning it into cash. The pickup cranks right up, engine is strong, clutch/transmission are strong, brakes work, a/c is cold, heat is hot and the tires can be seen in the photos, it is not new, has a few faded paint spots, mainly clear coat and it looks like at some point the agency must have damaged the driver’s side fender and replaced with a used one that doesn’t match exactly, has a few spots where you can still see the glue where the agency had government decals on the doors and tailgate, other than that the pickup rides and drives great, low, low miles for a 1998 year model, agency said one person drove it pretty much its entire life! You can buy the truck, drive it home and immediately start driving on a daily basis without having to do anything to it, 4-cylinder with a 5-speed so probably easy on gas!

Ford Ranger-based 7-seat SUV spotted testing

Wed, 29 May 2013

Ford looks to be working on a new SUV version of its global Ranger pickup truck. An early prototype of a seven-passenger SUV based on the Ranger has been spotted testing in Australia, and word has it buyers in the region could expect to see the model in showrooms as soon as 2014, where it could sail under the Endeavour or Everest badges. Ford Australia currently sells the Territory SUV, so there's some chance that this model could be a successor to that throne, as well.
Whatever it's called, the long-roof Ranger will feature a shorter wheelbase and more ground clearance than its pickup twin, giving the machine a bit more off-road functionality. (And here we thought we couldn't want the global Ranger any more than we already do.) While this particular vehicle sports a Territory back half grafted onto a Ranger front end, odds are a public reveal of the finished product could occur as soon as the second half of 2014, making it a 2015 model. Head over to Carsguide.com.au for a closer look.

NHTSA upgrades Ford floor mat unintended acceleration probe

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

According to a Bloomberg report, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has upgraded an investigation into complaints of unintended acceleration lodged against Ford vehicles. The investigation began in June of 2010 when just three complaints had been received and it only concerned the Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan, but this was at a time when the phrase "unintended acceleration" made grown men go pale. With 49 additional complaints received since then, the investigation has been reclassified as an engineering analysis - the last phase before a recall - and it has been expanded to include the Lincoln MKZ, making for a total of "around 480,000" units affected between the three sedans from the 2008 to 2010 model years.
The ostensible cause is that floor mats are trapping the accelerator pedal, but according to a Ford statement at the time, the entrapment is due to owners placing the optional all-weather floor mats, or aftermarket floor mats, on top of the car's standard floor mats. NHTSA has backed up that assessment, pinning the blame on "unsecured or double stacked floor mats."
On the face of it, it would appear that NHTSA has upgraded the status not because of Ford's error, but owner error, and Ford has stated publicly that it is "disappointed" in NHTSA's move. On top of NHTSA still being skittish after that other unintended acceleration debacle, it could be seen to be taking its time investigating all of the variables: it's reported that Ford changed its accelerator pedal design in 2010, a "heel blocker" in the floorpan has been considered a potential culprit in how the floor mats could be trapping the pedal, some drivers have said the floor mats weren't anywhere near the pedal, and according to a report in the LA Times, in "a letter sent by Ford to NHTSA in August 2010, the automaker said it found three injuries and one fatality that 'may have resulted from the alleged defect.'"

Today's the day, Ford fans. Production has officially commenced on the sixth-generation 2015 Mustang at the company's Flat Rock, MI factory. As production ramps up, sales should kick off in the coming months.
The production news isn't just a bit deal for American fans. With the new Mustang getting a bespoke right-hand-drive variant, the pony car's worldwide availability has swollen to include 120 different countries, including its home nation.
"Mustang is and will continue to be an automotive icon," Joe Hinrichs, Ford's president of the Americas, said in a statement. "Expanding its availability globally affords our customers around the world the opportunity to have a true firsthand Mustang experience - one unlike any other."
