Wheelchair Van on 2040-cars
Orlando, Florida, United States
For sale is a 1997 Ford conversion van that in our opinion is in fair condition cosmetically and good condition mechanically. Previous to our ownership of it, the van had been gone through by a trusted local mechanic shop. We were told they added new front brake pads.
We have driven the van only short distances such as to school and back and have not put many miles on it We have had the rear A/C fan replaced with a brand new one and the wheel chair lift has had one of its electric motors professionally rebuilt. It should be noted as for the wheelchair lift, on occasion the remote button to lower the lift to the ground works intermittently and more often than not one must use the button inside the van to accomplish the lowering process. This has not been too much of an issue as the lift itself has been reliable. The van is being sold as is and we do not know the history of it. It drives well considering it is a large and heavy vehicle. The motor is a V8 and runs strong. The transmission is automatic and shifts as it should. The battery is in good condition. The tires hold air and have some tread left. This van may require maintenance as any used vehicle and is being sold as is. It has aluminum wheels and room to stand up inside (depending on your height) as well as mood lighting and a tv and vcr which we have never used so it is unknown whether they work or not. It has chrome bumpers and a trailer hitch and factory tinted privacy glass in the rear. The van comes with two additional captains chairs that are not mounted. It has an electric couch seat in the back that reclines. It has an aftermarket stereo in the dash. The carpet has some oil stains from the lift. All things considered it is a decent van and serves its purpose well. It has been our experience that to find a van such as this and at this price does not happen very often. I noticed in the auto check report, now that it is available, which describes a minor accident with a parked vehicle. So I looked over the van and there is a small dent behind the right rear wheel. Not very noticeable though as we did not see it till now. Thank you. |

2015 Ford F-150 [w/videos]
Thu, 02 Oct 2014To learn more about the all-new 2015 F-150 and get an early read on its potential hero-or-zero status, we flew to the heart of full-size pickup truck country, San Antonio, TX, to spend a day driving, towing and playing in the mud with an assortment of Ford's innovative new trucks.
First, a caveat - while we feel we have a reasonably good handle on the new F-150 after attending this first-drive event, we are far from ready to pass definitive judgment on the success of this radically new rig. Our time in the various models was lamentably limited and we felt rushed. With so much at stake and with so much to talk about and experience, we had zero alone time with the vehicle - there were Ford folks shadowing us at every moment.
And we still don't know everything there is to know about the trucks, as Ford is withholding some of its most crucial numbers, including curb weight data and anticipated EPA fuel economy figures. We don't even have a firm on-sale date. All of this information is typically disclosed - or at least officially estimated - at the time of a new vehicle's first drive. This limits the scope of the judgments we feel comfortable making based on our first encounter.
Ford Fiesta rally car warms up in Sweden
Tue, 18 Mar 2014Rallycross is seeing a sudden surge in popularity with two series bringing the racing to the US and Europe. The Ford OMSE team is competing in both championships this season, and it saw no reason not to hold practice with a highly modified Fiesta in the snow of Northern Sweden. It brought together Andreas Bakkerud from the European-focused FIA World Rallycross Championship and Patrik Sandell from the North American-focused Global Rallycross series for some training and fun. They certainly appear to be enjoying themselves, too, with some lovely pirouettes in the powder.
If you're unfamiliar with rallycross, the discipline combines the best of rallying and circuit racing. Drivers (with no co-drivers) race rally cars over a circuit that generally mixes dirt and asphalt, and unlike traditional rallying, multiple cars compete side-by-side at once. Even better, it's often a very two-fisted form of motorsports with lots of car-to-car contact. Global Rallycross and World Rallycross will both kick off their seasons in May. With spring on the way, scroll down to watch the Fiesta kick up some of the last snow drifts of the year.
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.
