Good running truck, would make a great work truck, play truck, or toy hauler. I bought the truck a few months ago thinking it would work for my business but I need a regular bed truck not an SUV. Temp never goes above 1/4, it starts up when you want it to, and runs like a champ. The 3 speed C6 transmission is not a highway cruiser, but it's built like a tank.
I'm not going to sugarcoat or hide what the truck needs. The a/c doesn't "need a recharge" it needs to be fixed. The check engine light bulb isn't "blown" it's on, and if you don't like the light on you can replace the part it needs or take the bulb out yourself. This is a 25 year old truck that is in overall good condition for it's age. It doesn't need anything to be a daily driver, it's the creature comforts that need to be addressed.
*what it needs* Exhaust work, it's not crazy loud but there's some exhaust leaks somewhere, they get quieter when the truck is warmed up A/C Condenser (a/c works fine if the condenser is replaced, rock hit it on the highway) Possibly Heater core (was bypassed when I bought the truck, I'm sure someone didn't bypass it for fun) Clock Spring for the steering wheel (Horn and cruise don't work because of this) Check Engine Light is on code 67 (mechanic told me it was the neutral safety switch which doesn't affect drive-ability, the light just stays on) Dome light doesn't come on, there's no bulb in it but I don't think there's power to it either Oil Pressure gauge is broken, the red "engine" oil
pressure light still works, the gauge just doesn't. Rust spots repaired on roof - I sprayed the spots with rust inhibitor to keep it from worsening but it needs to be repaired. There is also one spot on the passenger side door jamb. This truck has lived in Florida for a while and the rust on the roof shows that she's been to the beaches some. The undercarriage does not have any rust that is noticeable, just mud :) Turn signal blinks fine, but doesn't stay when you use to the right, works fine left. If you have any questions feel free to ask! |

Next Shelby Mustang to wear GT350 nameplate
Fri, 21 Jun 2013Earlier this month, rumors started to swirl 'round the web about the next-generation Ford SVT Mustang - the halo version of the all-new 2015 'Stang seen testing in the gallery above. Originally, we heard that the Shelby GT500 moniker would be dumped in favor of "a name you're familiar with," which some sources guessed could mean a return of the Cobra nameplate.
That might not be correct. According to Road & Track, citing a report from Mustangs Daily, the new range-topping Mustang will bring back the Shelby GT350 name - currently used on an aftermarket version of Ford's Pony produced by Shelby American (take a look at our recent Quick Spin of that car). Expect the new GT350 to be quite a bit different than the current GT500 - it will be all motor, using a V8 that's derived from the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter Coyote engine (though it will no doubt have a higher displacement). The GT350 will be a lot more powerful than the next Mustang GT, which is expected to offer something like 450 horsepower, but won't be quite as absurd as the 662-horsepower GT500 we currently enjoy.
The Shelby GT350 will reportedly bow with the rest of the new Mustang range at the 2014 New York Auto Show, which coincides exactly with the original Mustang's debut at the New York World's Fair in 1964. If that seems far out, don't worry, we'll be seeing the rest of the 2015 Mustang range before then, but Road & Track reports that the 2014 Detroit Auto Show stage will be reserved for the reveal of the next Ford F-150 pickup.
40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
Mustang-themed pinball game debuting in Chicago [w/video]
Wed, 05 Feb 2014Believe it or not, but new pinball machines are still being made. Chicago-based Stern Pinball still makes them and has found a niche selling modern machines to individual buyers and arcade distributors. For its latest cabinet, Stern partnered with Ford to create a pinball game that pays homage to the 50th anniversary of the Mustang, including the next generation. The new machine is being unveiled at the Chicago Auto Show on February 6 and goes on sale in March.
Stern is offering the machine in three variants. The pro-level machine is meant for arcades and public spaces and retails for $4,995. All of them come with background and cabinet art by Camilo Pardo, who designed the Ford GT, and Top Gear USA host Tanner Foust is the game's announcer. Depending on where players shoot the ball, they activate events that simulate drag racing, rallying, drifting and racing the Mustang, and hitting targets lets players shift the gears up and down.
An upgraded, premium table with added art will be added later for pinball machine collectors. The third model is a signed, special edition with art of the 1965 Mustang and 2015 Mustang on the machine and chrome and Mustang badges on the speaker grilles. Prices for these editions will be announced later.
