Up for bid is my 1999 F350 XLT Diesel Crew CabTruck.  I have only owned the truck for 2 years and I hate to see her go, but my business has no use for it anymore. 

The Goods:

The truck is a 4 door crewcab with tons of space in the cab and is a shortbed (6'10") w/ bed-liner.  The engine runs great and the truck only has 154,000 miles which is nothing for a 7.3 Diesel, which in my opinion is one of the best diesels ever made for a truck.  These engines have been known to last up to 500,000 miles if maintained and are tanks!!  Not many Ford diesels out there in the 1999-2002 year range that have such low mileage!  I have dumped a lot into this truck.  I added a new Softtopper retractable cap on the back last year ($800.00), which is nice for keeping tools and equipment dry and it is sweet because it can be put up and taken down in about 5 minutes!!  A year ago I also replaced all of the glowplugs in the engine and it fires up great in the coldest of weather, it also has a plug in block heater for the coldest of nights.  I also just had a new radiator/ transmission cooler and water pump installed along with a new starter ($2,200.00 of labor/parts!!)  I also installed digital tow controls ($400.00), which are sweet if you ever have to haul heavier loads and need adjust the gain on trailers precisely.  The truck has a 4.5" lift with 34.5" tires and also has a 4.5 inch straigt piped exhaust with digital readout on dash and performance chip, this gives it a nice whistle!  The tires have about 1/3"- 1/2 tread and will last for a while.  I installed all new custom sized shocks on the truck just last year.  The truck has an automatic transmission and has 4WD with manual front locking hubs and the transmission shifts as it should and the 4WD works great with no problems.  The truck has a heavy duty hitch receptacle in the rear and a 8" drop down hitch with 2" ball included, and I also installed a front 10,000 lb hitch a year ago behind the front bumper, which can be used for a ton of things.  I also installed a ram air w/ an S&B re-usable filter which improves mileage and performance a little.

Bads:

Not many bads with this truck, but the paint is not in great condition.  It looks fine on 9/10ths of the visible truck, but there is some clear coat chipping off primarily on the top of the roof (not visible) and it is starting to work it's way down to the doors.  The passenger side rear cab door is the worst of it and you can see it in the pictures I posted.  If I were to keep the truck I would probably just get a cheap paint job at Maaco, or just leave it the way it is as it is a work truck.  There is no visible rust or anything major it is just a surface problem and it has remained the same for the last 2 years.

Overall this truck is in great mechanical condition and is a tank that will last many years for it's next owner.  It is a tank and has been a great workhorse for the last two years!  Good luck bidding!

Would a Mustang-based Lincoln look like this?

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

Designer Josiah LaCalla has taken a stab at what a Ford Mustang-based Lincoln model might look like with the Continental Mark X1 concept. Make no mistake, Ford's luxury arm has made it abundantly clear that it won't be pursuing any new products outside of volume models, which means a flashy halo grand tourer like the one you see here isn't in the cards. LaColla used the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG as a basis for his creation, which explains the long nose, but we certainly don't mind the idea of a rear-wheel drive Lincoln with a cabin pushed to the aft.
While we're dreaming, there's certainly nothing stopping us from imagining what's under that lengthy hood. We like the idea of the 5.8-liter supercharged V8 from the Shelby GT500 pushing the Mark X1 down the road, but how about something a little more inventive? Something like a high-revving, buttery V12 with enough torque to push the contraption well past 200 miles per hour. Dream a little dream, people.

Ford recalling 370,000 Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Town Car models

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will recall some 370,000 Crown Victoria (pictured), Mercury Grand Marquis and Lincoln Town Car vehicles from model years 2005 through 2011, for an issue regarding the lower intermediate steering shaft. 355,000 of the vehicles in question were sold in the US, with the other 15,000 sold in Canada.
The report indicates that corrosion of the lower intermediate steering shaft could cause a "loss of steering," presumably because of a partial or complete failure of the part. The report points out the dealers will inspect and replace the offending steering component for recalled cars, and may also secure a lower steering column bearing and replace the upper intermediate steering shaft as needed. The company is unaware of any reports of the faulty part causing any accidents or injuries.
Ford helpfully lists states in which corrosion is more likely to have taken place, mostly in the Snow Belt, as you might guess. Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia are listed.

Mulally to stay at Ford through end of 2014 at least

Fri, 06 Dec 2013

Alan Mulally isn't going anywhere... at least not just yet. The CEO who helped turn around Ford Motor Company has been linked to the top job at tech behemoth Microsoft, leading to a flurry of rumors about potential successors. Those rumors, though, may have just been put to rest - at least for a little while.
Speaking to Edsel Ford II (great-grandson of company founder Henry Ford) at the unveiling of the new Mustang, Automotive News Europe confirmed that Mulally would stick around until the end of next year. "Alan is staying through the end of 2014 and that's all I know," said Ford. "Frankly, he has told us that his plan is to stay with Ford through the end of 2014."
Presuming that Edsel Ford is correct and that Microsoft isn't so hot on Mulally that it saves the position for him, it seems increasingly likely that the 68-year-old exec is more interested in continuing to work in Dearborn rather than in Redmond.
