Once featured in Street Trucks Magazine (I may have located a copy, if I can get my hands on it I'll include it with the purchase) Originally I purchased this truck for my son, without going into the details that fell through. Now he's getting married and I need to sell it to help pay for some wedding obligations and free up some money for MY project car. I have been working on bringing this truck up to par for months, It was never in bad shape just somewhat taken apart for further customization and the paint needed freshening up. I think it has turned out beautiful. The truck sits all the way on the ground when dropped, around 12" off the ground when lifted, very drivable. Features a 3 1/2 inch body drop, hand built back half frame, C'ed for rear end clearance with a 4 link set up. Shaved door handles, gas door and tailgate. Raised bed with custom painted "wood grain look" in the bed. Kind of a dark charcoal (almost black) custom paint on top, darkish red on the bottom, marbled tribal flames. Custom grill, chrome high rise intake and alternator, matching paint on engine parts. Rolling on Bentchi 22" wheels. Leather and suede custom interior, Kenwood stereo, Alpine amp, PG speakers. Also I added new Viair compressors, new rear bags, braided lines (plastic to the front) I don't know a ton about air ride so I may not be able to answer all questions, but I did learn a bunch on this and can't wait to do another. Also "if" ever the battery goes dead, (so you're not locked out) I added exterior battery posts, hidden in front bumper, red side has been touched with black to hide it since the pictures were taken. There are some security features I'll share with buyer (so they stay secret) after sale is complete. The truck has 104k miles on it, but obviously has been taken well care of and acts like it will run forever. The more I drive it the more I enjoy it, I've taken it to two local shows since I've got in running and have struggled weather to keep it or not, so with a deep breath....here it goes.

Leno talks racing with NASCAR racer Joey Logano
Wed, 02 Jul 2014Jay Leno has to be under significant pressure knowing the appetite his fans have for a new Jay Leno's Garage video every week. This time, Jay takes a break from his usual format (something he's been doing with some frequency as of late) and goes back to his roots as a talk show host. There's no classic in the garage his episode with an interesting story to tell and a sumptuous exhaust note. Instead, the focus is purely on interviewing 23-year-old NASCAR racer Joey Logano about what it's like to be a racecar driver in his Ford Fusion.
Logano started racing at the tender age of six and has risen up the circle-track ranks to the big show of the NASCAR Sprint Cup. The two of them talk about what it's like to compete in the sport today compared to yesteryear, and Logano shares some racing anecdotes. Of course, they also get into what it's like to be on the racetrack controlling a car with about 850 horsepower, a four-speed manual transmission and brakes without any power boost. Scroll down to watch the video.
Ford finally issues recall for 230K minivans over rust problems
Sun, 10 Mar 2013The rust issue in the rear wheel wells of 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans has finally led to a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began an investigation into the matter in 2011, said investigation being upgraded to an engineering analysis a year later while NHTSA tried to figure out how many model years should be included in the assessment.
Ford has decided to recall all of the 230,000 minivans potentially affected, namely those sold in salt-belt states and countries like Canada. The excess rust in the rear wheel wells was also able to prevent the third-row seats from locking to the floor of the minivan. To repair the problem, owners can take their minivans to dealers, and the dealers will place new panels in the wheel wells, replace the third-row seat mounting brackets and relocate the latches to an area away from any corrosion.
Ford says it will begin notifying owners during the last week of March.
PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
