This is one of the nicest trucks you will find! It has been my personal truck for a long time, but now it sits more than it's driven and I have decided to sell it to someone hopefully who can use it and take care of it.
I have used this truck to pull my race car trailers and also our 5th wheel. It is set up with a 97 gallon aux. fuel tank, gooseneck ball and a B&W 5th wheel hitch. It also has a receiver hitch as well.
I personally installed an inter-cooler with a Ford Super Duty retrofit. Aftermarket air filter and exhaust down pipe are also included and I installed pyrometer, boost pressure, transmission oil temperature and vacuum gauges as well as a true proportional trailer brake controller. The computer chip installed is a 4 page chip with high idle, stock, tow and performance modes.
The transmission was rebuilt at 170,326 miles by Green's Automatic Transmission Service in Waco, Texas and Keith built up the transmission for heavy duty towing service with special converter and internal components. I also installed a high GVWR transmission cooler.
The oil has been changed every 3,000 miles, the transmission fluid has been changed every 25,000 miles. The anti-freeze coolant has been drained/flushed every 2 years or 50,000 miles whichever came first. The coolant filter I installed has the coolant additive included to prevent cavitation and is changed every year. Front and rear brakes were rebuilt at 200,000 and new Monroe shocks were also installed at that time.
There is so much more to discuss or say, but I hope you get the idea. This truck is NOT a tire kicker. You must see to appreciate! If you have been searching for an older body style Ford 7.3 diesel you won't find a better one than this. The oil in the truck is clean and it uses no oil between changes. Truck has 254,000 miles and runs and drives excellent. It does have some dings and scratches as all used vehicles will, so you will have to see for yourself.
Price is $12,500 with everything included as stated and in the pictures. I have way more than that in the truck with the options installed, but it has been an excellent truck and runs, drives and pulls great.

NO solicitors or vendors please!

Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch
Tue, 16 Jul 2013A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.
Ford Fiesta ST orders off to strong start
Fri, 17 May 2013We at Autoblog love the new little Ford Fiesta ST, and apparently, folks in Europe are pretty impressed with it, as well. According to Ford, the automaker's European arm has already logged 3,000 orders for the new hot hatch since it hit dealerships this March. The US-spec car, which will only be available as a five-door, will go on sale in the United States this summer.
What's perhaps most interesting about the Fiesta ST ordering is that the majority of customers appear to be ordering high-spec cars. According to Ford data, 60 percent of customers have opted for the leather interior with Recaro buckets, and 90 percent have selected the upgraded 17-inch wheels (seen on our test car, above). Spirit Blue has been the most popular color, commanding 27 percent of all orders. As for the technology upgrades, 19 percent of customers have ponied up for the Sony stereo with navigation.
To recap, the Fiesta ST is offered with Ford's 1.6-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, putting out 179 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque, mated exclusively to a six-speed manual transmission. We had an absolute blast flinging the hot Fiesta through the French Alps, and we can't wait for this sharp little hatch to make its way over to the States.
EU formally questions French government assistance of Peugeot's finance arm
Fri, 28 Dec 2012Recently, the finance arm of PSA/Peugeot-Citroën was in such debt trouble that it was pricing itself out of the car loan market. The rates it was paying to service its debt, which was rated one step above junk, were so high that it was forced to charge car-buying customers higher rates than they could find elsewhere. This was adding to Peugeot's already impressive woes by sending revenue out the door to competitors.
Two months ago a deal was worked out with the French government whereby the state would provide 7 billion euro ($9 billion USD) in bonds to guarantee the finance arm's loans. The French government could nominate someone to join the Peugeot board, Peugeot would guarantee more French jobs, and on top of that deal, other banks would provide non-guaranteed loans. The government would take no equity stake in the car company.
Although not yet finalized, the arrangement is meant to create some breathing room for Peugeot Finance to lower its interest rates for customers, and a government-nominated board member, Louis Gallois, was recently named to Peugeot's supervisory board. The arrangement was also openly questioned by at least three competitors: Ford, Renault - which is 15-percent owned by the French government after it received state aid - and the German state of Lower Saxony, itself a 15-percent shareholder in Volkswagen.
