Tour Bus, Party Bus, Or Conversion Rv White 2000 Ford E 350 Turtle Top on 2040-cars
Oakland, California, United States

Ford E 350 Turbo Diesel Turtle Top Bus. Until recently this bus was taking tourists into Yosemite on a regular basis. She's a majestic vehicle with a lot of power ~ yet she's only a little bigger than a standard parking spot. The bus is registered as a conversion RV and has been partially converted with king sized bed platform (modular ~ can be switched to full size) and dresser. A person of medium height can (5' 8") stand up comfortably inside. The widest part of the cabin is 78 or 79 inches and the length from back to driving cabin is about 12 or 13 feet. Interior is insulated and covered with plush suede-like grey fabric. There are lots of real wood details on the inside and several swanky lighting options. The window mirroring gives privacy without impeding glorious views. The bus has a 12 volt VCR and TV that work plus a pretty good sound system that plays CDs and cassettes (yes!). She has an electric/manual side door that works well. The rear door has been professionally adjusted to function better and includes an brand new latch. This bus comes with a tow hitch installed and can pull quite a bit of weight. The bus has a rear gate that swings out for easy access to the back door and has a full spare wheel mounted on it. She has good brakes and tires, new fuel filter, fresh oil change, new glow plugs, freshly tuned up engine runs great. 251,900 miles on it. Needs gas gauge replaced.
I put a lot of love into this vehicle planning to travel around the country ~ my plans have changed and it is time for someone else to love it. Video tour available upon request. You are welcome to have a mechanic look at it also. If you have any questions, contact me and I'll get in touch with you :). |

Wrap up some fun with Ford's commercial vehicle configurator
Tue, 27 Aug 2013Ford has combined multiple steps into one with its commercial vehicle configurator, which allows users to choose, design and place orders for the Transit, Transit Connect, E-Series vans and F-Series Super Duty trucks.
The most interesting part of the new configurator is a fairly robust design tool. Users are able to choose paint color and wrap the vehicle, and then create their own graphics. No materials are needed - Ford provides numerous background textures, text boxes, plenty of shapes and 20 categories of images including floral, construction, plumbing and skylines. Self-created designs or images can be uploaded to the system as well.
We played around with the design tool a bit and uploaded our own image to create the Autoblog Podcast Live van you see here. Feel free to check out the configurator and make your own design.
2015 Galpin Ford GTR1
Mon, 25 Aug 2014Last year in Monterey, we met GTR1 for the first time. Galpin Auto Sports pulled the wraps off its Ford GT-based supercar, powered by a twin-turbocharged 5.4-liter V8 good for a whopping 1,024 horsepower and 739 pound-feet of torque. The thing was totally custom-made and reportedly took some 12,000 man hours to create. And there it sat on the Pebble Beach grass, $1,000,000-plus price tag and all.
This year, the Galpin was back, albeit with one big change. That twin-turbo engine? Gone. In its place, a 5.4-liter V8 with a 4.0-liter Whipple supercharger bolted on, delivering an astonishing 1,058 hp and 992 lb-ft of torque on 110-octane fuel. 0-60? 2.9 seconds. Top speed? Somewhere above 225 miles per hour.
"Some things to keep in mind: no stability control, no traction control," were the only warnings given by Galpin's Brandon Boeckmann before taking me on a quick spin in the supercar. And after having my eyes thrown into the back of my skull a few times, laughing hysterically and trying to regain full use of my hearing after my ear drums being bombarded by the apocalyptic roar behind me, Brandon pulled over and said it was my turn, if I was ready to take the wheel.
George W. Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 fizzles with $300,000 bid at Barrett-Jackson [UPDATE: w/video]
Sun, 20 Jan 2013Despite some truly impassioned pleading from Jay Leno himself - including calling on Arizona's notoriously Republican-rich voters to beat the $600,000 level set the last time Leno sold a vehicle for this particular charity... in California - bidding for George Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 pickup truck stalled at $300,000.
All proceeds will be sent to the Fisher House Foundation, so at least it's $300K going to a good cause. Feel free to check out the live image gallery above, which includes shots showing Leno's skills helming the auction, and read through the official auction description below.
*UPDATE: Video of the auction and Leno's prods to the crowd for more money can now be seen below.
