Beautiful 1971 Ford F100 Short Wheelbase Truck on 2040-cars
Camden, Arkansas, United States
Up for sale is my dad’s old 1971 Ford truck, short wheelbase. We have seen many good times in this truck, but the time has come to let it go and let someone else have the pleasure of driving this old girl. It has a strong running 351 Windsor engine with a Ford AOD (automatic overdrive transmission). This transmission has the same power in the lower gears but the overdrive provides better gas mileage at highway speeds. It is in good condition. It also has dual exhaust that has a good muscle sound. The truck has power steering and overall is in very good mechanical condition. It has a beautiful paint job, which is the original Boxwood Green with a white top. The interior is very good and is as clean and neat as can be. The tires are fair and are white lettered, which adds a lot to the looks of the truck. This truck is not perfect and is probably a #3 show truck. It is an excellent daily driver. We have driven this truck all over the state of Arkansas. The truck starts, drives, rides, sounds and looks good and gets a lot of "thumbs up!" If you have any questions please call my dad at 870-574-2861. He is hard of hearing so make sure you talk loud and slow. You can also email me on Ebay if you have a question. We have a clear Arkansas title. The buyer is responsible for shipping. If you pick it up in person you must have cash. If you are having it shipped we must have a cashiers check or money order only. No personal checks or wires. I must have a $500 deposit through Paypal as soon as the auction ends. This deposit is non-refundable.

Ford pits Cobra Jet versus GRC Fiesta ST, worlds collide
Thu, 31 Oct 2013Racing takes on many forms in the automotive world. There are sanctioned events that are as varied and diverse as NASCAR, Formula One, Global Rallycross and drag racing, and to be good enough to win competitively in one discipline, you need to have a specialized vehicle. Or do you?
Ford decided to find out what would happen when its Global Rallycross Fiesta ST, driven by Tanner Foust, lined up against its Mustang Cobra Jet drag racer, driven by Roy Hill. In one lane, Tanner has just 2.0 liters of displacement to work with, while Roy has more than double that, at 5.0 liters. Evening the playing field a bit, Tanner has a massive turbocharger and all-wheel drive; Roy has to filter all his supercharged power through the rear wheels only.
So, who wins? We suggest you see for yourself in the press release and video below. And we're holding out hope that Tanner's challenge at the end results in another video from Ford Racing...
180,000 new vehicles are sitting, derailed by lack of transport trains
Wed, 21 May 2014If you're planning on buying a new car in the next month or so, you might want to pick from what's on the lot, because there could be a long wait for new vehicles from the factory. Locomotives continue to be in short supply in North America, and that's causing major delays for automakers trying to move assembled cars.
According to The Detroit News, there are about 180,000 new vehicles waiting to be transported by rail in North America at the moment. In a normal year, it would be about 69,000. The complications have been industry-wide. Toyota, General Motors, Honda and Ford all reported experiencing some delays, and Chrysler recently had hundreds of minivans sitting on the Detroit waterfront waiting to be shipped out.
The problem is twofold for automakers. First, the fracking boom in the Bakken oil field in the Plains and Canada is monopolizing many locomotives. Second, the long, harsh winter is still causing major delays in freight train travel. The bad weather forced trains to slow down and carry less weight, which caused a backup of goods to transport. The auto companies resorted to moving some vehicles by truck, which was a less efficient but necessary option.
Ford bumped by Amazon in best-perceived brand list
Mon, 20 Jan 2014Back in July, a mid-year study from YouGov found Ford to have higher brand perception than any other company in the US. While Ford failed to top the year-end study, it still has plenty to brag about. The final BrandIndex report shows that online retail giant Amazon edged out Ford for the top ranking, while Subway, the History Channel and Lowe's rounded out the top five spots.
For Ford, it's still an improvement from sixth place in the 2012 study, and, more importantly, it dominated other automakers in terms of brand perception with a clear advantage over Toyota, Honda, Chevy and Volkswagen. To determine how well - or not so well - a brand is perceived, YouGov uses a Buzz score that asks respondents whether they've "heard anything about the brand in the last two weeks, through advertising, news or word of mouth" and whether it was positive or negative. While it isn't clear how many respondents were included, YouGov does point out that Ford had a strong presence in social media, advertising and newsworthy toward the end of the year.
