Up for auction is a 1997 Ford F250 HD with a 7.5L 460 cu in gas engine and automatic transmission with overdrive. The truck is a retired city parks and recreation vehicle. The low miles represented are accurate. The vehicle was minimally used to transport trailers with livestock and utility vehicles during city events.


For the year, the vehicle is in very good condition. The interior is clean with a vinyl bench seat and vinyl floor mat. The dash is crack free. The instrument cluster works as expected and an AM/FM Stereo with door speakers functions normally.

The engine has ample power for pulling larger trailers and the transmission shifts normally.

The body is in good condition overall. Typical scratches and dents in the bed and some on the body. A 5th wheel receiver hitch with removable ball is securely mounted in the bed, with a standard rear mount receiver hitch below the factory bumper. A 8-plug and 4-plug trailer wire harness is mounted in the factory bumper to the right of the license plate.

The roof mounted amber light bar is operational and mounted to the factory drip rails. Easy to remove if you don't want it.

Only reason for selling is I inherited a newer year Dodge truck last week and I don't need 2 trucks.

Tags good through 12/2013, Registration good through 07/2014

Dual 18 gallon fuel tanks with dash mounted switch provide plenty of fuel capacity for longer trips.

Tires have about 40% tread remaining. Spare tire is in tact under bed.

Actual mileage may be slightly higher at time of purchase as the truck is used regularly for errands.

KBB value when correct options are selected (eBay defaults are wrong) is $7,511 in Excellent condition, $6386 in Fair condition. Truck is in good condition and priced below Fair condition at the starting price.

Ford nets $5.7B in 2012, $1.6B in fourth quarter

Tue, 29 Jan 2013

Ford brought in $5.7 billion in net income during 2012, which is around $307 million less than one year prior. Even so, the automaker closed out 2012 with the highest pre-tax profit for a single quarter in nearly 10 years, earning $1.7 billion in the fourth quarter thanks largely to a higher-than-average truck mix in the US. That's a jump of $577 million over 2011. Likewise, that translated into fourth quarter income of $1.6 billion. All told, Ford set a full-year pre-tax profit record in 2012. But that doesn't necessarily mean everything is rosy in the land of the Blue Oval.
Like every other manufacturer, 2012 saw Ford get hammered in the European Union, where a deep economic recession continues to drive down consumer confidence. The automaker lost more than $700 million in Europe, and saw full revenue of $26.6 billion in 2012. That's a decline of $7.2 billion compared to last yea. Ford says the market for new vehicles in Europe has contracted to 13.5 million units, the lowest number in 17 years. You can read the full press release below for more information.

Here's the new face of the Ford Ranger

Thu, Nov 27 2014

Ford Asia Pacific has put a teaser video on YouTube showing off details on the 2015 Ranger pickup, and at the end we get a quick glimpse of the whole truck. This is the T6 Ranger that we still don't get in North America, but that shares its underpinnings with the Everest SUV recently introduced at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum. The Ranger gets a chunkier front end than the Everest, identified by its grille with three floating slats, reminiscent of designs on the previous F-150, and a less-stylized lower front bumper. Ford says it will be smarter, safer, smoother and stronger, but we'll have to wait for its reveal to find out what that means. Meanwhile, you can admire its new looks in the video below.

NHTSA closes probes on Jeep Grand Cherokee, Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey

Wed, 09 Jan 2013

The Detroit News reports the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has officially closed its investigations into 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2004-2005 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey models. The separate probes found no issues that pose safety concerns. NHTSA began investigating certain Grand Cherokee SUVs over complaints that power steering hoses could detach during operation, thereby increasing the risk of a vehicle fire. Of the 24 reports of failure, none alleged smoke or fire in the engine bay, and Chrysler has since modified the power steering cooler assembly to reduce the likelihood of the failure.
Meanwhile, certain Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey vehicles garnered a government probe after receiving complaints that the models were equipped with faulty scissor jacks. The agency had received six reports of the jacks failing or causing injuries, including one incident that resulted in a fatality. But NHTSA says the jack failure rate is similar to those found in other vehicles. In those six cases, the government agency found the jacks were being used for something other than changing a tire, and investigators could not determine whether the emergency brake was set or the rear tires were properly chocked.
