1999 Ford Ranger Xlt Extended Cab Pickup 2-door 4.0l on 2040-cars
Hartville, Ohio, United States
|
This truck is in Very Good condition. It has brand new tires as of a couple months ago and a new set of spark plugs and wires as of a few weeks ago. Brakes were serviced last fall. Has had regularly maintenance of oil and etc. AC works and runs cold, heater also works well. There is a 2" towing ball attached to the bumper. Also has power windows and a working cruise control. Frame is in great shape with only a very little show of surface rust, no pits or rust flakes! The body does have several small dings and scratches, but nothing major. A few other minor interior issues like a "door ajar" light that doesn't go off, some bite marks in the dash from previous owners dog, a whine from power steering which has been checked and double-checked and I'm told is common to many Rangers (fluid has not leaked), cruise control set button bracket is loose but works, power locks do not work, interior light sometimes stays on for a very long time before going off (has not affected the battery). I purchased this vehicle about a year ago from a gentleman in NC who had used it in VA, KS, and OR with a lot of highway usage. I do not think he was the original owner, but most of the mileage was his. I drove the truck primarily for work in a seasonal sales job during the warmer months (rarely in winter) so it has not seen typical Ohio winter use. Reason for selling - We now live across the street from where my wife works so we no longer need the extra vehicle. Your timely payment is greatly appreciated - a non-refundable down payment of $500 is required within 24 hours of the close of this auction via PayPal. The balance remaining to be paid via PayPal or in cash before truck leaves premises and title transferred. Seller prefers to have bidder pick up the vehicle, but is willing to ship it if bidder makes arrangements. Seller will not be responsible for shipping. On Aug-26-14 at 11:39:26 PDT, seller added the following information: I purchased this truck a year ago for $3,000. Current Kelly Blue Book value is listing at $2,600-$2,700 with all the appropriate options for this clean vehicle. One day left - happy bidding! |

2015 Ford Transit
Wed, 11 Jun 2014As a segment, fullsize vans are stealth-fighter invisible on most consumers' radar. Visit a dealership for any of the four brands that offer them and you'll be lucky to find even one on display. These are commercial vehicles primarily, even more so than pickup trucks. Vans are the shuttles for plumbers, caterers, carpenters, concrete layers, masons, electricians, florists and flooring, and a huge part of this country's productivity is accomplished using them. At the moment, Ford is the 800-pound gorilla in that room - fully 41 percent of commercial vehicles wear a Blue Oval. So when Ford announced three years ago it would be ditching its commercial bread-and-butter E-Series, it meant the Transit that would be replacing the Econoline had huge, 53-year-old shoes to fill.
We were still a bit nostalgic about Econoline vans going away until going directly from the Transit first drive in Kansas City to an E-350 airport shuttle. Climb up through the Econoline's tiny double doors and bang your head on the opening, crouch all the way to your seat then enjoy a loud, rattle-prone, creaky, harsh ride on beam-hard seats while struggling to see out the low windows. This is an experience nearly every traveler has had. By comparison, the Transits we'd just spent two days with were every bit of the four decades better they needed to be. It cannot be understated just how much better the Transit is in every single way. The load floor is barely more than knee high. There's a huge side door, and hitting your head on a door opening is nearly impossible. Stand up all the way if you're under six-foot, six-inches - no more half-hunching down the aisle. There are windows actually designed to be looked out of. The ride is buttery smooth, no booming vibration from un-restrained metal panels and no squeaks. Conversations can be held at normal levels rather than yelling over the roar of an ancient V8. The seats are comfortable. The AC is cold. There are cupholders.
Enough anecdote-laying, what's in a Transit? We're talking about a very fullsized unibody van that's enjoyed a 49-year history in Ye Olde Europe. This latest iteration is part of the "One Ford" initiative, so it was designed as a global offering from the get-go, eschewing the body-on-frame construction the E-Series has used since 1975. Instead, the Transit integrates a rigid ladder frame into an overall frame construction made of high-strength cold-rolled and boron steel. The suspension is a simple but well-tuned Macpherson strut array up front with a rear solid axle and leaf springs.
Next-gen Ford Cobra Jet development underway, but will it be a Mustang?
Wed, 09 Oct 2013Ford might be stepping away from the NHRA, but it isn't abandoning drag racing altogether. Hot Rod says that Ford confirmed a next-gen Cobra Jet factory drag racer is in the works, but the report also speculates that a new Cobra Jet could switch away from the Mustang nameplate.
Even though talk of a new Cobra Jet coincides with the all-new 2015 Mustang, the lack of confirmation for the dragster's platform leaves Hot Rod to guess that the car might switch to another platform - specifically a front-drive-based, unibody car like the Fusion or Taurus. We'd hate to think of a world with a NASCAR-ized dragster from Ford Racing, but it's also highly unlikely that the Mustang Cobra Jet would step away from its quarter-mile rivals like the Chevy COPO Camaro and Dodge Challenger Drag Pak.
Automakers' rush on aluminum may result in shortage
Thu, 13 Feb 2014Aluminum is the new buzzword in the automotive industry. The latest Range Rover and Range Rover Sport both take advantage of the lightweight material to shave huge amounts of body fat (only it's called "aluminium" over there). Audi and Jaguar have been using the stuff for years in their A8 and XJ, respectively, and now, aluminum is going mainstream, arriving on the 2015 Ford F-150.
While we're excited to see aluminum make an impact outside the premium market, its widespread adoption apparently won't come without some problems, notably in terms of supply. "There isn't an automotive manufacturer that makes vehicles in North America that we're not talking to," Tom Boney, of Novelis, the largest global supplier of aluminum sheetmetal, told The Detroit News.
According to Boney, Ford's use of aluminum on such a large scale has forced auto manufacturers in "every boardroom" to reconsider their plans following the F-150's unveiling, for one simple reason: there's not exactly enough aluminum to go around, at least in the short term. The auto industry presently only accounts for six percent of the aluminum sheet produced, but as the material is adopted by more and more brands, that figure is expected to swell to 25 percent within the next six years.
