1998 Ford Ranger Ev Electric Vehicle Rangerev on 2040-cars
Pauls Valley, Oklahoma, United States
I purchased the 1998 Electric Ranger and a 1994 Chevrolet S10 at an auction in Norman Oklahoma. I have sold the Chevrolet S10 and currently have the Ford Ranger EV for sale. I know I don't have to go into details on how rare the Ranger is, as far as the running condition, I have no idea. I was told they were for research at the University of Oklahoma and when the Professor running the program retired the vehicles stayed parked until the University decided to liquidate them. An insurance verification in the glove box shows it was once owned by Southern California Edison Company in Rosemead California.. Original owners manual and electric information is also in the glove box. Some good questions have been asked since I posted the Ranger this morning: The pictures are current, the store next door with the Gas Sign advertising has been closed for several years and does not reflect current fuel prices. Pictures were taken this morning. The Truck is Complete, missing only Batteries and Charging Cord. Everything under the hood is there except for the 12 volt battery. The Electric Motor is the 3rd member on the rear axle. Truck is equipped with Factory air conditioning, power brakes, am/fm stereo radio, bucket seats, intermittent wipers, heater. Body and Interior are in exceptional condition. |

Ford Green Zone works magic with GPS to make your drive smarter, cleaner
Fri, Aug 29 2014For the most part, plug-in hybrids rely on the power stored in the battery until that charge is depleted. Unless the switch can be changed manually, it's only then that the cars fire up the internal combustion engine and begin using the fossil fuels on board. This is ideal, of course, when one's drive isn't long enough that the car needs to start sipping gasoline at all. On longer commutes, when it's certain that the route is longer than the car's all-electric range, this isn't necessarily the most efficient use of energy. Ford's Green Zone system is designed to save some of that juice for the parts of the drive that require slower speeds. Ford is working on a smart system, based on Nokia mapping technology, that uses GPS data to use both the electricity and conventional fuel more efficiently. Since battery power is less efficient at highway speeds, Ford's Green Zone system is designed to save some of that juice for the parts of the drive that require slower speeds, rather than just using up all the electrons right at the beginning of the drive. Using a website or the in-car navigation system, the driver can pinpoint the parts of the route, highlighted in green, where using battery power would be more effective, and set the car to automatically switch to electricity for those sections. Depending on the route, the car could automatically switch back and forth between the two power sources multiple times, particularly if the drive is a mix between city and highway driving. Of course, Green Zone will be go beyond that. The program is being developed to take traffic and road grade into account, details that allow the car to be make even smarter choices to improve efficiency. Ford even hopes to have Green Zone learn driver habits, and respond accordingly depending on who is driving the car. The system could control other features as well, such as anticipating corners and shifting the headlights to better illuminate the road ahead. Green Zone could also potentially use information from vehicle-to-vehicle networking to control functions in the car. The Green Zone system still has a few years before it will be ready to be put into production vehicles, but Ford is confident it will make its way onto the road eventually. As with other innovations that improve efficiency and make our vehicles smarter, we can expect to see similar technology from other manufacturers, until it becomes a regular part of driving in the future.
