Listed for sale here is my 4x4 Pickup. The truck is a 1999 Ford F-150 Extended Cab. The truck has 4 wheel drive and has the Lariat trim (which was the highest package you could get in 1999). I have owned this truck since I was 16 years old. It is was my very first truck I ever had that my parents bought for me. The truck has around 211,000 miles on it but still drives great. My dad bought it for me in 2001 with 39,000 miles on it and it does have a rebuilt title. The truck has seen all highway miles and the four wheel drive has been used at least once every winter (no off roading, though we have used it a few times to get to a cemetery or two back home that was on a hill). The truck has a brand new rebuilt crate engine installed from Ford. This engine was installed March 2011 at Brown's Ford in West Liberty, Ky and has nearly a year of warranty left. Since the install I have put a little over 10,000 miles on the engine. The reason for the install was that the old engine went down because of a spark plug ejection. These 5.4L engines from 97-03 were notorious for blowing out spark plugs and the first time this happened to me was in 2005. Had it fixed but this began to happen again in late 2010. I had this happen to the same one three times and the third time something definitely went wrong and to make a long story short there was internal engine damage. Ended up just buying a factory engine from Ford and having it installed. Ford guaranteed the engine for 3 years (and unlimited mileage). The warranty is up on 03/17/2014. In late 2010 I also had a new fuel pump installed. Last year I also had a Ford Motor-craft battery installed from Ford and it came with a five year warranty. Other additions that I have made to the truck are:

Viper Model 5701V 2-Way Remote Start, Alarm System, & Keyless Entry (with both remotes).
Brand New Ford Factory Steering Wheel
Lund Easy on & Easy off Bed Tarp
2000 Model Ford Factory Overhead Console w/compass and temperature sensor
Electronic Dimming Mirror
4" Exhaust System (Installed last year).
Aftermarket Instruments (Transmission Temperature & Exhaust Temperature gauges, they look pretty cool).
iPhone-iPod factory radio connection (I took out the 6-disc cd exchanger and replaced with this and it works great).
Trailer Towing Package with trailer towing brake controller
Brand new Windshield installed last year (high quality glass).
All new tie rods and balljoints installed last year.
New Michelin tires installed a little over two years ago, probably 60 to 70 percent tread remaining. These tires ride great!!!
Husky Front Floor Liners (Great for capturing dirt better than any floor mats. Back seat are husky regular floor mats).

I also have a 1999 model Ford Expedition middle console that I can include. I had the intention of installing this but never got around to doing so. The most work this truck has seen as far as pulling a trailer was pulling my tractor between my farm and my grandpa's farm for a total of about 12 trips (20 miles each). I thought it would be cool to have the added instruments and they look almost like factory installed. This truck has really not seen any action as far the pulling goes but if your interested in doing a lot of pulling then then the transmission temperature gauge is a great addition. There is nothing wrong with this truck aside from the fact it is high mileage and therefore has the normal scratches. The exhaust is a little louder since I replaced the old one with the 4" so some of you looking for a more factory sound may not like it. It is definitely not loud, I used to have dual exhausts and it was much louder. Nevertheless it is louder than factory. There are a few rust spots on the truck and as always for the mileage there are some scratches and dings (there are a few on the tailgate). This was my very first truck and I do hate to part with it but as a matter of economics I just do not need it anymore. I got married last year and my wife and I moved to Louisville so I could attend law school. I already had two vehicles so I needed to decide which one to part with. The truck is registered in South Dakota and has a South Dakota title free of liens (I lived in South Dakota prior to moving to Louisville).  This truck will make someone a very reliable and good truck. It definitely has the setup, especially if you just need a truck to use around the farm or on the job for pulling. I have all receipts for the work done, except for the fuel pump. I'm not sure what I've done with it. Oh and the warranty from Ford on the engine is good at any Ford dealership. If you have any quesitons feel free to ask.

Jay Leno sees how the other half lives with CHP cop cars new and old

Mon, 01 Jul 2013

Comedian Jay Leno is changing gears from driving fast cars to checking out some of the police cruisers that regularly chase down and dish out punishment to those fast cars. In this episode of Jay Leno's Garage, we get the lowdown on the modifications made to the Ford Explorer for the Interceptor package (which looks pretty tough in its California Highway Patrol livery).
The new Ford is cool, but cooler still are the pack of classic CHP cars that Jay has along for the episode. A 1982 Mustang, 1966 Dodge Polara, 1970 Mercury Monterey and 2000 Crown Victoria are all in the shop. Better still, Jay lays out an argument for ones of the classic cruisers as the best cop car of all time. Get your guesses in now, and then scroll down to watch and learn.

Ford looks to protect logo from Toronto mayor followers

Fri, 15 Nov 2013

One is a member of the Detroit Three and the maker of the Mustang, Fusion, Explorer and F-150. The other is an admitted loudmouthed, drunk-driving, crack-smoking mayor in Canada. Unfortunately for one, it shares its name with the other. Yes, Ford Motor Company is going to great lengths to keep its iconic Blue Oval logo from being appropriated by supporters of besieged Toronto mayor Rob Ford.
At a United Way event earlier this week, some of Mayor Ford's fans showed up with shirts that featured the automaker's logo with the words "Ford Nation," on them. Naturally, Mayor Ford signed them. FoMoCo was quick to issue an unhappy statement:
"Ford did not grant permission for use of its logo. We view it as an unauthorized use of our trademark and have asked it to be stopped," spokesperson Jay Cooney said. There was also a statement from Ford of Canada's Twitter account after a user alerted the company:

Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner

Sat, 24 Aug 2013

For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
