What a great old truck! If I had room for it, I would surely keep it. This 1973 Ford F100 SHORT BED (bed is 6'10") has only 46K original miles, and has been stored properly in Dallas, TX. When you look at the under carriage pictures, you will see that it has surface rust only. Runs great. Numbers matching 390 V8, with original Carburetor, C-6 Automatic Transmission with Power Brakes, Power Steering and Air Conditioning which works well (and, again, since I am in DALLAS, I do KNOW air conditioning!) Original A/C compressor. (or appears to be so, it certainly is the original type). Engine runs strong. No smoking at start up, or any other time. It will squeal the tires from a stop, and chirp the tires as the automatic shifts from first to second. I thought about warming the motor up a little, but it is so original I left it alone. I did re-build the carburetor recently, replaced the spark plugs, spark plug wires, changed the oil, oil filter, air filter, and serviced the A/C. Cigarette lighter works fine, and I use the plug for my phone charger. All lights work. EVERYTHING works. Has a few very small dents from over the years. I installed a Petronix electronic ignition inside the stock distributor. Works perfectly. You can take it back to points if you like, but I do not know why you would. Has 15" Michelin tires that have less than 2000 miles. Had I kept the truck I might have installed slightly larger 15" rubber, but these tires were simply too good to take off now. They have some years on them, but since the truck has been stored properly, there is no dry rot. Some of the pictures show the white letters on the tires to be on the outside, but I had them turned in to the inside recently as I prefer that look. Hubcaps are original Ford. This truck has what I believe to be the ORIGINAL bias-ply spare tire on the spare tire carrier! (I do not know if it is original, of course, but it is certainly a bias ply tire!) I do not know if the spare was ever on the ground save for maybe rotating the tires. Original jack is in place under the hood. Interior looks great! No rips or tears. The only place I notice a little wear is when you get out on the driver's side, the seat springs seem a little weak. When you are in the driving position they seem correct. Headliner correct and original. Cargo area and under hood lamps work properly. Has chrome bumpers, and I have bumper guards for the front. I removed them, as I think it is a cleaner look. Paint is fading. It could be compounded and improve its appearance, but it is 41 year old paint. Bed shows paint scratches, but very light wear on the metal. One small dent in the front portion of the hood above the F in Ford above the grill. Looks like a .22 caliber dent! (Not a hole, just an impression) All trim pieces and badges are in place This is a great truck. It gets compliments EVERY WHERE it goes. I wish I had a place for it!

2015 Ford F-150 named Truck of Texas, Lincoln and Jeep also awarded at Truck Rodeo

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

The Ford Motor Company has a lot of reasons to celebrate after winning eight categories in this year's Texas Auto Writers Association's annual Truck Rodeo. Most important among them, the Blue Oval's latest 2015 Ford F-150 earned the prestigious Truck of Texas award, ending the Ram 1500's two-year winning streak. The 2015 Lincoln MKC also grabbed the honor as the CUV of Texas, and Ford was named Truck Line of Texas.
FoMoCo even took trophies for best technology with its extensive use of aluminum on its latest F-Series and best commercial vehicle for the new Transit 250. It wasn't a total sweep, though, because the Jeep Grand Cherokee grabbed the title of the SUV of Texas for the fifth straight time.
This year's event put 60 auto writers in 75 pickups, SUVs and crossovers and challenged them to find the best in a plethora of categories. All of the winners are listed below, and scroll down to read the full announcements from the Texas Auto Writers Association and Ford.

2016 Ford Explorer embarks at the LA Auto Show

Wed, 29 Oct 2014

Twenty-five years since its debut in 1990, Ford will celebrate a quarter century of Explorer models next year with the debut of a refreshed 2016 model at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show on November 19. The Blue Oval is keeping mum on hard details about the updated SUV for now, but the brand promises, "a new look, added capability and additional driver-assist technology," in its announcement.
Company marketing boss Jim Farley elaborated a little more on what to expect. "The new Explorer is still the SUV America fell in love with - a vehicle built for the perfect family adventure," he said in the release that you're welcome to read down below.
An updated Explorer is a pretty big deal for Ford's bottom line. Worldwide, SUVs and crossovers account for about 23 percent of Ford's sales, and the segment is projected to grow to around 29 percent by 2020. Ford further says that SUVs and CUVs are the world's quickest growing segment with demand up 88 percent since 2008.
