www Up for auction we have a 1979 FORD BRONCO RANGER truck for sale. Please read entire AD, this is actually for two Broncos! Overall the truck is very nice for its age and runs and drives well. The truck is equipped with the 351M engine and automatic transmission with four wheel drive. The odometer shows 84,971 miles, the title shows exemt, so Im not sure if its true miles or not. The interior is good, the door and dash have brown paint on them, they probably should be green to look right.The truck was originaly orange,in color. The body does have some rust areas, the worst is in the Pass. side lower door jamb area, as shown in the pictures. Also some bubbling over the Pass. side rear wheel,over the pass. side door window, and a little in the drivers door jamb. The frame, mounts and floor all look pretty good. Mechanically, the only thing,other than a tune up, carb. cleaning, would be that it does not want to engage in the 4x4 LO position, it doesnt want to snap in and engage,it was that way when I got it, and I didnt get to go further with it. The tires have a lot of tread, but are aggressive, and I personally wouldnt want them on it for normal driving. The rear tailgate was replaced, and I havent seen any rust on it,but the window currently doesnt go down on it. The winning bidder gets a 1979 Bronco 4 speed parts truck with,if desired,if not wanted,I can deduct $500.00 from the winning bid price. If there is anything major wrong with the transfer case,those parts would be on that truck. I have driven the truck on my property, but not on the road for long periods, the truck seems good. The truck sells AS-IS, delivery possible, contact seller for details, Buyer will need to meet with seller to transfer title ownership papers at pickup. I have driven the truck about 10 miles today,it drives OK, the gas guage doesnt work, and the steering box is worn,so the steering isnt tight, but I have a better one to go on the vehicle.

Ford adds 850 jobs to build 2015 F-150
Tue, 14 Oct 2014Pickup trucks tend not to advance at quite the same pace as the rest of the industry. That's what makes the new Ford F-150 so remarkable, jettisoning its old steel construction in favor of aluminum. It's a game changer that Ford is betting big on, and in anticipation of surging demand, the Blue Oval automaker is adding 850 new jobs to put the thing together.
Those 850 new employees will be centered at Ford's Rouge complex in Michigan - with 300 at Dearborn Stamping, 50 more at Dearborn Diversified and 500 at the Dearborn Truck facility, the latter of which has already kicked off what Ford describes as "the largest manufacturing transformation in decades." Old manufacturing equipment is being replaced with the latest technologies, and even the Ford Rouge Factory Tour is undergoing a complete overhaul.
The new jobs come as part of the commitments Ford made to the UAW in 2011 to create 12,000 hourly jobs in the United States by 2015 - a number which Ford has already exceeded at 14,000. Over 4,000 of those are centered in southeastern Michigan.
2015 Ford F-150 claims segment's best payload, towing ratings
Mon, 29 Sep 2014While we are set to drive the new, 2015 Ford F-150 in the coming days, there's a big piece of news on the latest-generation of the Blue Oval's bread-and-butter pickup coming out of Dearborn, and it focuses on the truck's hauling and towing abilities.
The new F-150 will have a maximum payload of 3,300-pounds (V8 models), and, perhaps more importantly, a 12,200-pound tow rating (EcoBoost V6 models), which for the first time are compliant with the Society of Automotive Engineer's J2807 standards. Those best-in-class figures are significant feathers in Ford's cap as the Detroit Three continue duking it out for the title of top pickup.
"As founding members of the SAE trailer towing committee, we will meet SAE trailer towing standards," Ford's Aaron Miller told Autoblog.
Ford of Europe celebrates Mondeo's 20th anniversary
Wed, 25 Sep 2013Ford's European operations are celebrating a milestone of sorts as the Mondeo, the Blue Oval's bread-and-butter D-segment sedan in the old country, celebrates its 20th anniversary. The mid-sizer, which was sold in the US for a short time as the Contour, has been a far more popular vehicle in Europe - even receiving regular praise from one Jeremy Clarkson.
Narrated by Cockney actor Ray Winstone, the video goes through the Mondeo's years and how it's evolved from 1993 to the as-yet-unreleased fifth-generation model, which is essentially the same as the Ford Fusion that's sold in America. Take a look below for the full video from Ford of Europe.
