This is a 3 owner truck. I have owned this truck since November 2008. When I purchased it in 08 it had 92,724 miles. The truck has 176,850 miles on it now. The oil and filter has been charged every 4,000 miles and the fuel / air filters every 12,000. I have done all the oil and filter changes myself and have lubricated the chassis at every oil change. I have always used Wix filters and used Stanadyne fuel conditioner. I have had the transmission flushed by Ford at 94,008 & 159,360 miles. The differential fluid was changed at 120,098 miles with Amsoil synthetic. The front wheel bearings were packed at 94,289 & 170,270 with Amsoil synthetic grease. The radiator was flushed with distilled water and replaced with new coolant at 146,323. I did a complete brake job at 170,270 which included turning front rotors & rear drums, replaced both front calipers and both rear wheel cylinders, master cylinder, brake booster, diversion valve and finally the vacuum pump. ( the vacuum pump was the problem the whole time.... It just happened to be the last thing I replaced !!!!! .) The tires were installed on 10/22/10 at 133,784. They are Firestone Transforce HT. the tires are rated for 60,000, they still have a lot left. I have them rotated every 8 to 10,000.The gentleman that I purchased the truck from had the transmission rebuilt at 78,673. It has a Axiom heavy duty converter and a Transco shift kit. I have describe the history of the maintenance as good as possible. The A/C blows cold and the heater is hot. Every thing works as it should. No rust. The paint looks great, there are a few dings but not worth worrying about. I took a pic of the worst one on the rear passenger door. My portable cover got caught by the wind and the pole rubbed the door. I used this truck to pull a small bumper pull camper that weighed around 5,200 pounds. This truck will get 20 mpg at 2000 rpm... Around 60 mph empty, around 14 mpg pulling my trailer. As far as the interior, it looks almost new. The seats and carpet show very lite wear. They have always been covered and will include the covers. The truck will also include a complete set of Huskey floor liners. I left the rear set cover on in the pictures, just because it was difficult to install. It is just a clean as the front seats. I would be very surprised to see a 1997 as clean as this anywhere for sale. If you are the buyer of this truck you will not be disappointed. If you have any questions e-mail them to me. You can pick this up locally or I can help you arrange for transport. The buyer will be responsible for delivery cost. I can also be contacted at 979-236-6003.

Forza Horizon 3 car list keeps on truckin'
Tue, Aug 9 2016We've covered three weeks of car reveals for Forza Horizon 3, and this time we get a better look at the trucks, SUVs and other off-roaders you'll be able to use to explore Australia. This week's list kicks things off with two of the most legendary off-roaders in the world, the Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser and the Meyers Manx. They have different purposes; the FJ40 is for tough trail work and the Manx is for some light-hearted beach fun. But no one could deny the cultural importance of either. And both should be a blast in Horizon 3. In addition to this pair of classics, players will have a chance to get behind the wheel of both a race version of the Ford F-150 Raptor and its closest rival, the Ram Runner. And when traditional vehicles start to get boring, why not take out a full-blown Baja racer such as the Penhall Cholla or the Rockstar energy drink version of the little Polaris RZR XP 1000 side-by-side? Forza Horizon 3 is shaping up to have one of the most diverse car lists in a racing game in a long time. There are still cars left to be revealed, so stay tuned for further installments and see this week's full list below. 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air 2002 Ferrari 575M Maranello 1992 Ford Escort RS Cosworth 2013 Ford Focus ST 1973 Ford Escort RS1600 1971 Ford Falcon XY GTHO Phase III 2014 Ford Fiesta ST 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor Race Truck 1954 Jaguar XK120 SE 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT 2012 Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 1986 Lancia Delta S4 2009 Lexus IS F 1957 Maserati 300 S 1994 Mazda MX-5 Miata 1967 Mercedes-Benz 280 SL 2009 Mercedes-Benz SL 65 AMG Black Series 1971 Meyers Manx 2012 Mini John Cooper Works GP 1998 Nissan R390 1979 Opel Kadett C GT/E 2011 Penhall The Cholla 1971 Plymouth Cuda 426 Hemi 2015 Polaris RZR XP 1000 EPS Rockstar Edition 2013 Ram Runner 1993 Renault Clio Williams 1990 Subaru SVX 1979 Toyota FJ40 2005 TVR Sagaris 1990 Vauxhall Lotus Carlton Related Video: News Source: Playground Games / MicrosoftImage Credit: Playground Games / Microsoft Auto News Toys/Games Ford RAM Toyota forza exclusive ford f-150 raptor forza horizon forza horizon 3 toyota fj40 meyers manx
Ford Focus ST checks into Jay Leno's Garage
Mon, 23 Sep 2013In a change of pace from the high-end vehicles that often appear in Jay Leno's Garage, Ford sends its hottest hatchback (in the US, at least), the 252-horsepower Focus ST, to be featured on Leno's show. Accompanying the five-door hatch is its chief engineer, Jamal Hameedi.
Riding on stylish 18-inch wheels with summer tires and with a spoiler that doubles as a lunch tray, Hameedi and Leno walk us through the finer points of what makes the ST special, which also includes bigger brakes, torque vectoring, a manual transmission and, of course, 252 hp and 270 pound-feet of torque from the 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, which is made possible by 21 psi of turbocharged boost.
Watch the video below to see what Leno thinks of the global Focus ST.
