Clean Carfax.

This truck runs great. New engine installed at my local Ford dealer. The engine has a 3 year, unlimited mileage warranty which is transferable to the next owner (approximately 2 1/2 years left on the warranty) and is good at ANY Ford dealer. Some might question my price but you're getting a low mileage truck with almost zero miles on the new engine and a 2 1/2 year warranty on the engine. That's almost what you get by spending $30,000 - $40,000 more on a new truck....that's quite a few dollars left in your pocket.

While they were replacing the engine and were already in the engine compartment, I had them replace the exhaust manifolds, starter, and radiator too.  There is a lot less labor involved when the engine is out of the way.

Clean rocker panels and cab corners. One minor item, visible in the pictures above is that a small piece of plastic is missing from the honeycomb front grill. It does not affect anything and I do not notice it but I also do not hide items from potential buyers.

It's a great buy on a clean used super crew with a new engine. I love driving it. It runs great. Only 131k miles on the rest of the truck...still young.


For those that want the rest of the story.... I bought the truck last August. Shortly after purchasing it, a noise started out of the bottom end of the engine.  It turned out that someone in the recent past had removed the oil pan and done some work to hide that the original engine had trouble (per both my mechanic and the Ford mechanics). 
Check out my seller ratings and you will see that I am not the kind of person that will stick someone else with a problem so I went the route of having the engine properly replaced by a Ford dealer. 
Our downstairs heating system went out and replacing that is a higher priority than keeping my truck (I know, I should get my priorities straight). At the moment, I cannot afford to both replace the HVAC system AND keep the truck, especially after all the money I put into it. I'll be taking a loss on the truck but still, it's money in the pocket to pay the other cost.

Other than the transferable engine warranty, there are no other warranties. $500 deposit due within 24 hours. Balance due within 7 days. If you decide to have it shipped, I will make myself available for your shipper when they come to pick it up.

Ford rethinking vehicle launch strategy

Tue, 07 May 2013

With a new boss at the helm, Ford is looking at new ways to improve its vehicle launches in North America to prevent recent issues that have popped up with models like the Lincoln MKZ, Ford Escape and Ford Fusion. Speaking with Automotive News, Ford's new president of the Americas, Joe Hinrichs, revealed a few ways the automaker plans to avoid early build issues such as the engine fires on certain 2013 Escape and Fusion models and months-long delays for customers to receive their MKZs.
It sounds like the root of the problems may have been Ford's relationship with suppliers compounded by the fact that the product surge came on the heels of the recent industry-crippling recession, and in the AN article, Hinrichs says improvements are being made to reduce problems during the launch of new or redesigned models. Three such improvements that were implemented during the first quarter of this year including more rigorous quality comparisons, better use of computer technology to catch major problems sooner and hiring engineers to work closer with suppliers.

Lower gas prices mean there are excellent deals on green cars right now

Sat, Jan 17 2015

The phenomenon was big enough to make news in 2006, then in 2008, in 2011, in 2012, in 2013, and again last year: a big move in gas prices means a big move in alternative-fuel-vehicle sales. True Car's TrueSavings report, which averages transaction prices across the country to figure out what people are paying compared to MSRP, shows that electric cars and hybrids are ripe for excellent savings right now. The Ford Focus Electric presents the greatest disparity, with the average transaction price of $25,168 representing a 16.1-percent saving off its $29,995 MSRP. The Kia Optima Hybrid and Toyota Prius also snagged spots in the top five, with the Kia offering a 10.7-percent discount and the Toyota a 10.1-percent discount. One hybrid managed to show up among the top five lease offers, too: the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid is just $315 a month for 36 months after $3,875 down in some markets. Alt-energy vehicles got bumped out of the top five finance deals, however. That was dominated by light trucks and, oddly, two subcompacts. The press release below has more details. TrueCar finds hybrids, EVs top list of best savings in January Gasoline price plunge = savings for consumers on alternative fuel vehicles SANTA MONICA, Calif., Jan. 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Ford's Focus Electric hatchback, which sells at an average of 16 percent off MSRP, tops January's list of best savings on new vehicles, according to TrueCar, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRUE), the negotiation-free car buying and selling platform. The "TrueSavings" monthly report analyzes current transaction prices and identifies opportunities for consumer savings. "Fuel savings are not top of mind to many consumers right now, and that makes this a great time to buy a hybrid or electric vehicle," said John Krafcik, president of TrueCar. "With gasoline prices now averaging just $2.10 per gallon, and vehicle preferences tied so closely to short-term gasoline prices, automakers are heavily discounting their most fuel-efficient cars to clear inventories." Toyota's Prius, the world's best-selling alternative fuel vehicle for more than a decade, also makes January's list of best savings. Customers who purchase a Prius Two model this month can save 10 percent off the hybrid car's $25,025 MSRP. "Gasoline prices and vehicle type preferences are strongly related, and this relationship is cyclical in nature," said Krafcik.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky

Fri, 24 Aug 2012

It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.
