Where to start- at the beginning I suppose. This vehicle was sent from the dealer to an approved Ford up fitter for
4x4 conversion- Clydesdale 4x4- utilizing all Ford components from '05+ model F-350 4x4: axles, T-case, springs
(coils), etc. The van was sold to the first owner to transport people in it's original 15 seat configuration. After
2 years, an individual purchased it for a very few months in hopes of building it into an Expedition rig, which he
quickly realized was a bigger endeavor than he felt comfortable undertaking. Then, having an uncle with a Ford
dealership, we purchased the van through him to extend the factory bumper to bumper warranty a year, and the
driveline/powertrain warranty to 100k miles, and she only sits at 39k miles now!!
So, first the base truck: '13 E-350 EB 15 seat XLT, MSRP $49,979
-6.8 V-10, super tough and reliable
-5 speed automatic transmission with Tow/Haul
-4.10 max tow package with integrated brake controller
-reverse backing sensors
-running boards, privacy glass, and remote locking
Total to this point = $71,314
The second owner also had all the sills wrapped in clear vinyl, and entire truck rustproofed using Waxoyl- the best
available and very expensive as they start with entire steam clean of the underside!!
Then, on to my additions, which began with complete Ford 30k mile service and checkpoint to be approved for the
factory extended warranty. Finally the build as follows:
-Front bumper modified to incorporate Sterling Equipment (supplier for Florida Fish and Wildlife) HD brush guard
and winch mount
-new Ironman winch with remote
-Aluminess rear tire carrier
-Aluminess roof rack & side later. Rack has rear rollers and extra Yakima cross bars for boat cradles, etc
-5/ new Toyo AT-II tires, E rated, 34" 285/75-17
-upgraded head unit withUSB, Blue Tooth, and screen
-hard wired rear camera
-remote start
-removed 2nd and 3rd row seats to fit reclining Siena seats with leg rest (all orig seats included)
-custom brackets for Siena seats utilizing factory floor mounts
-8' rubber mat in rear to protect factory carpet
-rear LED light on separate circuit
-front LED fog lights on separate circuit
-front LED bar (with spot light provision) on separate circuit
-graphics are vinyl, and easily removable

Ford Mustang 50th anniversary edition brings in $170k

Tue, 30 Sep 2014

Just the other day, we reported on the first Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat selling for a whopping $825,000 at auction. But impressive as that sum was, the Challenger wasn't the only sought-after modern muscle car to cross the Barrett-Jackson auction block in Las Vegas this past weekend. So did this rare Ford Mustang.
The last of 1,964 special-edition 50 Years Limited Edition pony cars sold for a princely $170,000, with proceeds benefiting the Edith and Benson Ford Heart & Vascular Institute, a branch of the Henry Ford Health System.
The pony car in question is based on the 2015 Ford Mustang GT and upgrades with a performance package and nearly every option on the book, along with a unique appearance package to set it apart in celebration of the Mustang's 50th anniversary. It's available in two exclusive shades - Wimbledon white or Kona blue - with either a manual or automatic transmission. Only 1,964 highly symbolic examples were to be built, and this was the last of them.

Ford cleans up painting process with cameras

Thu, 22 Aug 2013

Knowing how the bacon gets made rarely entices us and, in the same vein, the same usually goes for knowing about how new cars get painted. But in both instances, however, quality - or a lack thereof - is instantly obvious. In terms of the latter, Ford is showing off its new paint quality process with 3D Dirt Detection Technology to find imperfections in vehicle paint more easily and more quickly.
This process - being performed on the F-150 SVT Raptor above - uses 16 computer-controlled cameras to create a three-dimensional model (inset) of the vehicle to detect flaws in the paint including dirt particles, which can then be buffed out manually. Ford says this new technology cuts down on time spent looking for paint flaws and gives workers more time to correct those that are discovered.
Currently, Ford only uses its 3D Dirt Detection Technology system at three factories (the Dearborn, MI facility, along with those in Louisville, Kentucky and Valencia, Spain), but it will soon spread to five more plants in North America. Ford has released a video and press release for this innovative and unexpectedly interesting process, both of which are posted below.

Watch NASCAR racer Brad Keselowski do a burnout... in a hotel conference room

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

A vast majority of hotels frown upon smoking inside the building these days, but Brad Keselowski doesn't follow the rules. During his introduction at the 2013 MiilerCoors Distribution Convention, the reigning NASCAR Sprint Cup champion smoked the tires of his Miller-sponsored Ford Fusion stock car, adding a pair of thick, black stripes to the carpeting of the Marriott World Center's conference room.
This definitely isn't a high-quality video, but it's the perfect vantage point to watch Keselowski lay down some rubber and receive a well-deserved standing ovation after pulling up in front of the crowd. Check out the short-but-sweet video posted below.
