2006 Ford Ranger XLT super cab 4 x 4 automatic 4.0L with power locks, mirrors, and windows, sliding rear window, air conditioning, and cruise control. 

This truck started out as a 2001.  I bought it back in 04 and loved it.  When it started getting old and tired. I found a really nice wrecked loaded 2006 with nice wheels and good tires. I lifted the cab off of the 01 and put it on the frame, suspension, drivetrain, and motor of the 06. Then I changed out all the interior to the 06. So the cab, doors, fenders, hood, grill, bumpers and title are 2001 everything else, all the mechanical, suspension, electrical, interior, and side view mirrors (the new model mirrors were larger and so much nicer) are 2006 with 101k. 

I drove it for about 6 months as is with the primer. But I got busy and never got around to finishing it. The top of the cab had started to peel so I took it down to metal and shot it with epoxy. The front end had some wind damage so I sanded it all out and primered it and I took out all the little dings and dents that happened over the years to cherry it out.  All the body work has been completed and the final coat of primer is ready to be sanded along with the rest of the truck and then painted. I was going to do a three stage using the original white as the base so I didn't have to jam it and one of the nice pearls on new vehicles. It is a great truck with lots of power and a great deal for a person looking to get some sweat equity and possible a custom paint job. Clean title.  I included a picture of the sticker on the motor showing its manufacture date.

Takata air bag recall list

Tue, Dec 9 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration confirmed yesterday that 33.8 million vehicles with Takata airbags are going to be recalled. It's the largest recall in automotive history. The already record-breaking rate of automotive recalls this year shows no signs of slowing down, especially since millions of cars with defective airbags made by global supplier Takata are under ongoing scrutiny. The federal government is warning owners that inflator mechanisms in the air bags can rupture, causing metal fragments to fly out when the bags are deployed. The faulty air bags have already been blamed for multiple deaths. How do you know if your vehicle is safe? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration released an updated list of vehicles under recall. Sometimes however, the government's website will crash and the list may not be complete. Check your VIN at the NHTSA website to make sure. The list of cars affected by the recall has not been released, but seem to span multiple models over the years for many of the automakers.

Ford will keep Escape and MKC plant open an extra week to meet demand

Thu, Jun 8 2017

Crossovers keep selling like popular pastries, and for Ford, that means it needs to keep production going. The company announced that, rather than the usual two-week shutdown, its Louisville, Ky., assembly plant will be open for one of those weeks. The plant builds the Ford Escape and Lincoln MKC, which Ford reports have had record sales. According to Ford, Escape sales through May are up 3 percent, and MKC sales are up 10 percent compared with last year. In total, the Escape has sold about 130,000 units through May, and the MKC has sold around 11,000. Keeping the Louisville plant open will allow the company to build an additional 8,500 vehicles. Ford stated that all other assembly plants will continue with the two-week shutdown as scheduled.

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.
