OK, here's the deal.... this is the third time I'm listing this truck. If you live in Texas, please don't bid. If you live in Alabama, please don't bid. It costs like $1000 to ship the vehicle to far away places and I don't want to again deal with someone who bids then realizes how much it costs to ship, then backs out. If you bid and don't live close, I will cancel your bid. Sorry, but I've lost months dealing with this, twice now, and I have to sell this truck. That being said.........

Original owner of 2001 Ford Ranger XLT, 2WD, 3.0LV6 automatic transmission, 2-door with foldaway jump seats. Vehicle has 202,000 miles and is in need of some servicing. Many new parts and recent service. I have done most of the tune up, oil change, brakes, exhaust, and general repair myself, but things seem to be piling up and I no longer have the desire to repair the truck myself, or pay to get it fixed. I will do my best to completely describe any/all defects. If there are any questions, or you would like to see the truck, please contact me.

The good:

New spark plugs and wires.
New coil pack
Recent cam position sensor
New front lower ball joints
New front upper control arms with ball joints
Entire new rear leaf spring suspension
Brakes recently done, new rotors on the front
New exhaust (intermediate pipe, muffler & tailpipe - not catalytic converter)
Recent front shocks
Recent emergency brake repair
Brand new battery (installed today)
New rear brake line
Bedliner in good condition
Truck is very clean and has always been reliable
Service records from recent shop repairs
Transmission rebuilt at 100K miles

The bad:

Although rear brake line has been replaced, brakes are still soft and other lines appear rusted. Bleed valve on left rear drum broken. It is drivable, but pedal does go almost to the floor. May want to consider tow if driving home far.
Truck appears to be going through coolant, need to top off every now and then
Probably an oil leak at valve cover causes engine smoke on occasion
Truck runs very smoothly, but has hesitated on occasion. New cam sensor, plugs/wires, coil pack appears to have fixed it.
Positive battery cable needs new connector at battery
Fender bender has caused front grill crack and minor bumper damage

2015 Ford Mustang: Obsessively covered [w/videos + poll]

Thu, 05 Dec 2013

Here at Autoblog, we've officially stamped December 5, 2013, as Ford Mustang Day. Sure, the sixth-generation Pony Car started leaking out onto the web days ago, but all of the official, non-embargoed hotness has come out today. And man, there's been a lot.
In terms of new car debuts, this is a really big one - not unlike all of the Corvette madness that kicked off the 2013 automotive season. So to make sure you haven't missed anything, here's a wrap-up of everything you need to know about the 2015 Ford Mustang.

Galpin Ford GTR1 supercar debuts in Monterey

Fri, 16 Aug 2013

Galpin Auto Sports has finally taken the wraps off the car we first previewed back in December, the Galpin Ford GTR1. A few weeks ago, we posted the first hints of just what the GTR1 would be capable of, with Galpin teasing that its 5.4-liter, twin-turbocharged V8 would produce in excess of 1000 horsepower, with a top speed of 225 miles per hour. Package all that in a coachbuilt body, and you have the recipe for one wicked supercar.
The price for the carbon fiber-bodied car is $1,024,000.
Now, we have all the glorious details. Galpin is targeting a production run of six cars, but if interest is strong enough, will expand its initial quote to 24 vehicles. The price for the carbon fiber-bodied car is $1,024,000. Opting for the aluminum bodywork could lower that, although it's not immediately clear by how much.

Ford dealers offered discounts on tools to fix aluminum

Mon, 27 Jan 2014

With the introduction of the aluminum-bodied 2015 Ford F-150 (and the likely use of aluminum in future Ford products), Ford is looking to help its dealerships reduce costs related to repairing this more labor-intensive material. Automotive News is reporting that Ford dealers with body shops will require an estimated $30,000 to $50,000 in equipment and training to work on aluminum, and to help alleviate the financial burden of the new F-150, Ford has announced a special 20-percent discount on this equipment.
Dealers will be able to save up to $10,000 on tools such as welders, air-filtration systems and rivet guns and to create aluminum-specific work stations. The new F-150 goes on sale in the fourth quarter, and dealers have until October 31 to take advantage of this deal, according to the report.
