YOU ARE LOOKING AT A VERY NICE 2004 FORD RANGER EDGE III EDITION THAT WAS INVOLVED IN A MINOR FRONT END ACCIDENT RECENTLY. IT IS AN EXTRA CAB 4 DOOR 2WD TRUCK WITH A SHORT BED. BELOW IS A BRIEF DESCRIPTION:

 

EXTERIOR: BLACK PAINT APPEARS TO BE ORIGINAL AND IS IN REALLY NICE SHAPE TO BE 11 YEARS OLD. WE ALL KNOW BLACK SHOWS EVERYTHING, SO NOTHING IS HIDDEN WITH EXTERIOR. BESIDES THE FEW PIECES NEEDED ON THE FRONT END, THE REST OF THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS ONLY MINOR SCRATCHES, , TWO DENTS TO MENTION, ONE IN THE HOOD AND ONE IN THE LOWER BEDSIDE, BOTH CAN BE PUSHED OUT WITH NO PAINT WORK REQUIRED. FAR NICER THAN THE AVERAGE TRUCK I'VE SEEN. AS FOR THE DAMAGE, TO BE BACK TO FACTORY CONDITION, IT WILL NEED---GRILLE, BUMPER ASSEMBLY, HEADLAMP MOUNTING PANEL, LEFT HEADLAMP AND TURN SIGNAL. THE LEFT BUMPER BRACKET CAN BE STRAIGHTENED, THE FENDER CAN AS WELL, IT JUST HAS A KINK IN IT. PAINT THESE FEW PIECES, BOLT THEM ON, AND YOUR DONE. IT'S FROM FLORIDA, SO IT'S RUST FREE AND VERY CLEAN UNDERNEATH. TRUCK CAN BE FIXED IN A DAY. ON THE OTHER HAND, I DROVE IT UP THE ROAD AND BACK, IT RUNS AND DRIVES FINE AS IT IS. SO IF YOU WANTED TO, JUST DRIVE IT THE WAY IT IS. I PULLED THE BUMPER FORWARD AND ATTACHED THE LOWER VALENCE SO IT WOULD CLEAR THE TIRE AND SAVE THE BUYER ON SHIPPING MAYBE. SO I DON'T SEE ANY REASON WHY YOU CAN'T BRING A TAG AND DRIVE IT HOME. BEDLINER LOOKS AS IT HAS BEEN IN TRUCK SINCE NEW, HAS HITCH ALSO.

INTERIOR: INSIDES ARE NICE, BLACK AND GRAY. HIGH BACK CLOTH BUCKET SEATS WITH A CONSOLE. NOTHING RIPED OR ABUSED, LOOKS LIKE WITH A QUICK CLEANING, IT WOULD BE PERFECT. RUBBER MAT FLOOR INSTEAD OF CARPET, EASY TO TAKE CARE OF.  ALL POWER WINDOWS, LOCKS, ETC WORK AS THEY SHOULD. A/C IS ICE COLD, HEAT HOT.  INSIDE REAR DOOR HANDLE IS BROKEN AND WON'T OPEN ALL THE TIME, A COMMON PROBLEM ON THESE. EASY REPLACE, $40 FOR THE HANDLE, AND ANOTHER $40 LABOR TO INSTALL.

DRIVETRAIN: THESE 3.0 LITER POWERPLANTS HAVE GOOD POWER, GREAT RELIABILITY, AND STILL KEEPS GOOD GAS MILEAGE. THIS ONE HAS 132,000 MILES AND RUNS FLAWLESSLY. NOTHING UNDER THE HOOD OUT OF ORDER, VERY DRY, NO LEAKS OR ANYTHING WET, I DO NOT CLEAN THE ENGINES OF MY VEHICLES BEFORE I OFFER THEM FOR SALE, SO YOU CAN SEE HOW THEY REALLY ARE. TRANSMISSION IS THE FIVE SPEED AUTOMATIC, COMPLETELY REBUILT TOP TO BOTTOM AS OF THIS YEAR, ONLY A FEW THOUSAND MILES SINCE DONE. I'M TRYING TO GET A COPY OF THIS AND SHOULD HAVE THE PAPERWORK BEFORE THE AUCTION'S END TO GO TO THE NEW OWNER. TIRES ARE NEW COOPER 235/70/16 RADIALS WITH ABOUT 500 MILES ON THEM.  JUST HAD NEW PADS, ROTORS, AND SHOES DONE ALL THE WAY AROUND, SHOULD NEED NOTHING MECHANICAL.

PLEASE UNDERSTAND, THE TITLE IS CLEAR, NOTHING EVER REPORTED ABOUT THE DAMAGE DUE TO THE TRUCK NOT HAVING COLLISION INSURANCE ON IT WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I JUST DON'T HAVE TIME TO FIX IT, SO I'M OFFERING IT FOR SALE AT A LOW RESERVE. THE NEW OWNER CAN PIECE IT TOGETHER FOR CHEAP WHILE DRIVING IT DAILY AND HAVE A VERY NICE RIDE AT A DISCOUNT. BE ADVISED, MOST OF MY AUCTIONS END EARLY WITH A REASONABLE OFFER, SO IF YOU WANT THE TRUCK, DON'T WAIT UNTIL THE END AND MISS OUT, CONTACT ME WITH YOURS. TRANSMISSION REBUILD, TIRES, AND BRAKES ALONE WHERE THOUANDS OF DOLLARS TO DO, SO NO LOWBALLERS PLEASE. CHECK MY FEEDBACK, I DESCRIBE MY VEHICLES VERY HONESTLY AND ACCURATELY WITH NO PROBLEMS. IF YOU HAVE A FEEDBACK SCORE OF 10 OR LESS, OR MAYBE A NEGATIVE SCORE, CONTACT ME BEFORE BIDDING OTHERWISE IT WILL BE CANCELED. SORRY, BUT  I HAVE HAD COUNTLESS PROBLEMS WITH THIS OF LATE. YOU DON'T HAVE TO ASSUME OR GUESS ABOUT ANYTHING ON THIS TRUCK, JUST SHOOT ME AN EMAIL AND I'LL ANSWER IT QUICKLY AND ACCURATELY. THANKS FOR LOOKING AND TAKE CARE.

George W. Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 fizzles with $300,000 bid at Barrett-Jackson [UPDATE: w/video]

Sun, 20 Jan 2013

Despite some truly impassioned pleading from Jay Leno himself - including calling on Arizona's notoriously Republican-rich voters to beat the $600,000 level set the last time Leno sold a vehicle for this particular charity... in California - bidding for George Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 pickup truck stalled at $300,000.
All proceeds will be sent to the Fisher House Foundation, so at least it's $300K going to a good cause. Feel free to check out the live image gallery above, which includes shots showing Leno's skills helming the auction, and read through the official auction description below.
*UPDATE: Video of the auction and Leno's prods to the crowd for more money can now be seen below.

Ford books $1.2B profit in second quarter on strength of trucks

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Ford is rolling along nicely, with a positive second-quarter sales report and a $2.3 billion profit in North America. The Dearborn, Michigan-based manufacturer captured $1.2 billion globally from April to June, with a $177 million profit in Asia. Even in Europe, the land of doom and gloom for automakers not named Mazda, Ford saw some success as it lowered its expected full-year loss from $2 billion to $1.8 billion. The company lost $348 million in Europe during the second quarter, which, believe it or not, represents a $56-million improvement over 2012.
According to the report on CNBC, Ford enjoyed a three-percent increase in pre-market trading thanks to the news. The strong demand for the F-150 propelled growth in the US market, while Ford's 47-percent increase in Asian sales can be attributed to the new EcoSport crossover and Kuga (Ford Escape in the US) arriving in the somewhat fragile Chinese market.
Pre-tax profits for Ford are expected to be in the neighborhood of $8 billion by the end of the year, with sales the US, Europe, and China all looking up. The company also shifted $4.78 billion of asset-backed debt in the form of bonds, according to a report by Bloomberg. This move came amidst rumors of the Federal Reserve cutting back on its $85-billion-per-month bond purchases. Ford wasn't alone among automakers looking to sell off debt, though, as Mercedes-Benz and Nissan shifted around $1 billion each in bonds relating to auto loans.

The big dune jump and the damage done

Mon, 20 May 2013

The Silver Lake sand dunes see their fair share of well-built trophy trucks executing impressive jumps. Drivers build insane pieces of machinery for the express purpose of sailing through the air like mad men and women.
Mike Higgins is no stranger to the area. His heavily modified Ford trophy truck has gone flying through the sky on more than one occasion, but he recently bit off more than he could chew. After hitting a particularly lofty dune, Higgins went airborne for a ridiculous 180 feet before becoming intimately familiar with the finer points of gravity.
While Higgins nailed the jump, his landing fell short of wowing the judges. The impact very nearly broke his truck in two. Despite the mechanical mayhem, the driver walked away without a scratch, proving that occasionally miracles really do happen. You can check out the jump and the subsequent destruction below for yourself. Be warned: there's a fair bit of foul language.
