2005 - Ford Excursion on 2040-cars
Laurel, Maryland, United States
We bought this Ex after a very long process of deciding we would only ever haul a travel trailer and never buy a fifth-wheel RV. So we treated this truck like we were gonna own it forever - it really has been quite a fantastic truck, and we LOVE it! But the inevitable happened: We bought a fifth-wheel. Now we have nothing to tow with the Ex, so it's on the sale block. As a part of treating it like we'd own it forever, I've been slowly tracking down & taking care of all those pesky things the 6.0L Power Stroke needs for longevity. At last check, the ECT/EOT delta was around 8-9*, and I sent for a Blackstone Oil report at every oil change. EGR Delete Sinister Diesel coolant filter SCT Tuner DashBoss RiffRaff turbo sleeves Gauges: fuel pressure, turbo boost, EGT Turbo rebuilt by Tim's Turbos Blue Spring Upgrade Turbo oil supply upgrade All-metal turbo pipes Also...we just put on brand new tires, and the rear wheels are mostly rebuilt (caliper, bearings, seals, dust shields). This is a VERY clean truck, and I'm continuing to make it CLEANER for you - the new owner! It has the "typical" East Coast underbody rusting, but nothing unusual. I have started grinding it down and It is my daily driver, so the current ticker of just under 123K will continue to increase until it sells (unless I can get back on the motorcycle in the meantime)... Here's a list of the options - I've tried to list them all, but I may have missed one or two. (Please note, the Harley-Davidson steering wheel cover doesn't convey.) all leather seating heated, power driver & passenger seats fold-down rear seat Captain's Chairs seating option 6-CD changer DVD player with wireless headsets (I never used them - I guess they work) reverse collision warning heated, extendable mirrors rear heater/AC climate control tow package (brake controller included)

2013 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor Supercrew
Fri, 15 Mar 2013I'm not normally a pickup kind of guy, but the 2013 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor won me over nearly instantly. The street-legal trophy truck - there is really no other way to accurately describe it - is big, brawny and incredibly capable. Let's just say it's every bit the monster it visually portrays. I spent a week pretending I was one of Ford's Baja 1000 drivers, but lacking desert sand, I headed into the local mountains where a mild winter storm had dropped a couple inches of fresh snow on my favorite off-road park. The Ford was, for the most part, practically unstoppable.
Ford offers its SVT Raptor package on Supercab and Supercrew platforms with the five-foot, five-inch bed. The Supercrew I tested rides on a 144-inch wheelbase (about a foot longer than the Supercab). In addition to its cosmetic differences when compared to the standard F-150 - there isn't a young boy on the planet who doesn't think the matte black Ford grille is cool - the Raptor has a 73.6-inch track - nearly seven inches wider than the track on the standard F-150.
After upgrading the F-150 SVT Raptor significantly for the 2012 model year, there are only a few changes for 2013. The list includes standard high-intensity discharge (HID) headlamps, Hill Descent Control, forged beadlock-capable wheels, and the new matte Terrain color (aka "Desert Storm") option seen on my test model.
Chrysler called out over lackluster Ram Runner by racer who helped develop it
Fri, 11 Apr 2014Fans of off-roading and desert blasting might recall that Chrysler offers an aftermarket conversion that can turn a Ram 1500 into a road-legal desert racer, called the Ram Runner. The kit, sold through Mopar, includes some significant suspension upgrades, body tweaks and a brawnier cat-back exhaust for the truck's 5.7-liter V8.
Considering all of this, comparisons with the almighty Ford F-150 SVT Raptor are common. Among the off-road community, that makes these two a sort of Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang for people that prefer driving on dirt. In the Race-Dezert forum, the discussion as to which truck was better was proceeding as normal - Ram fans said their piece and Ford fans said theirs. Then, a man named Kent Kroeker offered up his two cents.
See, Kroeker is a Baja racer, and the man that helped develop the Ram Runner. Despite his association with the truck, though, he had some less than kind words for Chrysler and the Ram Runner.
Ford bringing adaptive steering to the masses [w/video]
Thu, 29 May 2014Within the next year, Ford will offer a brand-new adaptive steering system (unimaginatively dubbed "Ford Adaptive Steering"), and this week, the automaker invited us out to its proving grounds in Dearborn, MI to get a taste for how its new setup works. In function, Ford's system doesn't greatly differ from the majority of other adaptive steering units already on the market from companies like Audi or BMW, but consider this: Ford will be the first non-luxury automaker to offer this technology, and uniquely, the whole system fits inside the car's steering wheel.
Ford's engineers have worked hard to create a system that can be tacked on to the company's full lineup of cars, trucks and utility vehicles, and says that the adaptive steering will be uniquely tuned for each specific vehicle. The automaker will not confirm exactly which vehicle will launch with this technology, but for the purpose of our preview, we tested the technology in a 2014 Fusion - a vehicle with already-good behind-the-wheel feel, one that the company says best demonstrates its current steering efforts.
