I've decided to sell my 1986 Ford Thunderbird Base model that only has 85,720 Actual Miles!! I bought this car last year as a back up vehicle but no longer need it since I purchased another car. Comes equipped with an EFI 5.0 that runs great! Power windows; power locks (not working-needs Actuators?); power both seats; power antenna; cruise; tilt; cold a/c; hot heat; keyless entry...manual sunroof that was installed by previous owner (does NOT leak). Has been painted a few years ago by a previous owner, does have a few chips and scratches but shows/shines well! Absolutely NO rust! Non smokers! The covers were put on the front seats only to protect them...driver seat has a couple small tears right next to where your left leg would rest, probably from sliding in and out of the car. The passenger seat is in excellent condition. The stock stereo does work but the left front chanel goes in and out sometimes. The headliner around the sunroof has tears in it from probably being pulled too tight when it was installed??? Please keep in mind that this Bird IS 28+ years old and does have a few "Bumps and Bruises"...I try to explain any/all problems the best way I know how. If you have ANY questions, please ask before placing bid. The fuel gauge and temp gauge do not work, I think it may be the voltage regulator in the instrument cluster, but not sure. I just fill it up when the Tripometer reaches 300 or so miles...it has the 22 gallon tank! Previous owner removed the cats and ran a true dual exhaust which sounds pretty good. It does shift kinda hard from 3rd to 4th...has been like this since I bought it from the previous owner. I did do a pan drop on the transmission, change the filter and fluid about 800 miles ago. The Dashboard has cracks from aging outdoors...The tires have around 80% tread left, and the brakes stop this Bird with NO pulling. It could use a front end alignment, the steering wheel is not quite centered and it pulls just a little to the right, but there is no uneven wear on the front tires. Like I said before, this T-Bird runs great and could easily be used as a daily driver.

Lower gas prices mean there are excellent deals on green cars right now

Sat, Jan 17 2015

The phenomenon was big enough to make news in 2006, then in 2008, in 2011, in 2012, in 2013, and again last year: a big move in gas prices means a big move in alternative-fuel-vehicle sales. True Car's TrueSavings report, which averages transaction prices across the country to figure out what people are paying compared to MSRP, shows that electric cars and hybrids are ripe for excellent savings right now. The Ford Focus Electric presents the greatest disparity, with the average transaction price of $25,168 representing a 16.1-percent saving off its $29,995 MSRP. The Kia Optima Hybrid and Toyota Prius also snagged spots in the top five, with the Kia offering a 10.7-percent discount and the Toyota a 10.1-percent discount. One hybrid managed to show up among the top five lease offers, too: the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid is just $315 a month for 36 months after $3,875 down in some markets. Alt-energy vehicles got bumped out of the top five finance deals, however. That was dominated by light trucks and, oddly, two subcompacts. The press release below has more details. TrueCar finds hybrids, EVs top list of best savings in January Gasoline price plunge = savings for consumers on alternative fuel vehicles SANTA MONICA, Calif., Jan. 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Ford's Focus Electric hatchback, which sells at an average of 16 percent off MSRP, tops January's list of best savings on new vehicles, according to TrueCar, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRUE), the negotiation-free car buying and selling platform. The "TrueSavings" monthly report analyzes current transaction prices and identifies opportunities for consumer savings. "Fuel savings are not top of mind to many consumers right now, and that makes this a great time to buy a hybrid or electric vehicle," said John Krafcik, president of TrueCar. "With gasoline prices now averaging just $2.10 per gallon, and vehicle preferences tied so closely to short-term gasoline prices, automakers are heavily discounting their most fuel-efficient cars to clear inventories." Toyota's Prius, the world's best-selling alternative fuel vehicle for more than a decade, also makes January's list of best savings. Customers who purchase a Prius Two model this month can save 10 percent off the hybrid car's $25,025 MSRP. "Gasoline prices and vehicle type preferences are strongly related, and this relationship is cyclical in nature," said Krafcik.

Ford to hack $4k off price of Focus EV amid slow sales

Wed, 10 Jul 2013

Between slow sales and a hefty price drop for its nearest rival, the Ford Focus Electric may be looking at a pretty substantial price cut. The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will drop the price of the all-electric by about $4,000 to $35,200 to be more competitive with the Nissan Leaf, which received a big price cut for 2013 down to $28,800.
Ford has already admitted to having low expectations for the car's sales and massive rebates were reported earlier in the year, but there is still no official word from Ford on this matter. The company's consumer site still lists the 2014 model's starting price as $39,200. In addition to the Leaf, the Focus Electric will also have to deal with the lower prices of smaller EVs including the Honda Fit EV, Fiat 500e and the Chevrolet Spark EV.

National Geographic Channel balances Ford F-150 on four coffee mugs

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

Proving that there is still something to be learned on television these days, National Geographic Channel recently introduced a new series called Duck Quacks Don't Echo. On the first episode of this science/comedy show, host Michael Ian Black proposes the idea that a truck can be supported with a ceramic coffee mug under each wheel - yes, he says that the entire weight of a truck can be balanced on just four coffee mugs.
Looking to find out whether this is fact or myth, the show uses a regular cab Ford F-150, weighing in at 4,800 pounds, and four average coffee mugs. Lowered onto the mugs, the idea is quickly put to the test. Can the cups hold up under 4,800 pounds? If so, what, exactly, would it take to break them? Scroll down below to find out.
