1997 F250 offered is my wifes beloved 7.3. I may be in the doghouse for selling it??? We are the second owners and have had it around 10 years. I that time we have used it for hauling our personal firewood and hay as well as her daily driver .  It has had many upgrades over the last few years in fact it  probably has  as much money put in it in the last 3 years as it will sell for.  It is a very reliable  low mileage truck.  All original  except for a heavy duty transmission done by Landis.  The upgrades in the last 3 yrs  that i can think of are new shocks, Re sprung front springs , rear shackles, all wiring new  inside the valve covers,new heavy duty glow plugs, fuel lift pump ,filter housing   and all gasketry around that area, greasable ball joints , alternator, new batteries, serpentine belt and idler pulleys, rear axle seals,  New tires and brakes, rear drums , front calipers and rotors. It also has New BFG all Terrain tires . Basically all typical wear items have been addressed.  We have always changed oil and filter at 3000 mile intervals with Shell Rotella without fail. We have used FPP fuel conditioner for years  and it works extremely well in keeping the lubricity and cleanliness.

The truck has a class 3 receiver , and a fifth wheel hideaway hitch and a trailer brake controller . All of which we didnt use all that much. it also has a Duraliner bed liner .
It is an XLT and the interior is very clean and from a non smoking home. 
There are a few cosmetic blemishes as shown in the photos. It has a minor paint scrape on the right side bed. The drivers side running board has  paint wear from getting in and out and needs a better support. The tailgate works very smoothly but is pretty bent up on the inside. The cab on the inside of the doors is starting to get a little typical corner surface  rust.  These are minor fixes,, all the major stuff has been done as i noted before.  Im sure there are things we have had upgraded that i dont remember .   All in all this is a get in and drive it for another 100,000 miles truck. It would be very minimal dollars to get the little items done that i mentioned.   Starts  runs and drives very well.    Good luck bidding getting this very well kept straight and clean classic  truck.  You are very welcome to come drive the truck or call me with any questions at 484 366 4034

William Clay Ford Sr. dead at 88

Sun, 09 Mar 2014

William Clay Ford, retired vice chairman of Ford Motor Company and the last surviving grandchild of company founder Henry Ford, died this morning after a bout with pneumonia. He was 88.
Ford spent 57 years with his grandfather's company, joining the board of directors in 1948 before graduating from college. Ford also held a position as chairman of the design committee, as well as the chairman of the executive committee and vice chairman of the Board of Directors during his tenure with the company. In a 2013 Detroit Free Press story, retired CFO Allan Gilmour said Ford had an eye for design, and was once able to pick out when a fiberglass model of a Ford Contour was asymmetrical, off by an inch on one side. He retired and assumed the position of director emeritus in 2005.
"My father was a great business leader and humanitarian who dedicated his life to the company and the community," said Bill Ford, Jr., Ford's current executive chairman. "He also was a wonderful family man, a loving husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. He will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him, yet he will continue to inspire us all."

Ford sticking with manuals for RS models

Wed, Feb 4 2015

Traditional stick-shift gearboxes may be losing ground quickly to dual-clutch transmissions, but Ford knows what hot hatch enthusiasts want. That's why it's sticking with manual transmissions on its RS models for the foreseeable future. The Blue Oval automaker caught our attention yesterday when it revealed the new Focus RS, packing an upgraded version of the turbo four from the Mustang, a trick new all-wheel-drive system and an old-school six-speed manual. After speaking to Ford's product chief Raj Nair at the hot hatch's launch, Autocar reports that the six-speed is here to stay. "All our current research says that customers really like these kinds of cars to have a manual gearbox," Nair told the British publication. "We'll keep looking at market trends, and of course we'll give customers what they want, but for now the manual stays." Autocar further suggests that the same principle will apply to any further Rallye Sport models, so if and when a Fiesta RS rolls around, it's likely it will stick with a stick as well. Although the less potent Focus ST is offered in diesel and wagon forms overseas, wherever it's sold and in whatever form, the six-speed stays a constant in that model as well, just as it does in the smaller Fiesta ST. That doesn't mean that other Ford Performance models won't go without a clutch pedal, though. The new GT employs a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox and the new F-150 Raptor channels its muscle through a ten-speed automatic. But as far as Ford's hot hatches go, it looks like the manual will remain alive and well.

Ladies Love It: Ford Fiesta wins Womens World Car of the Year

Thu, 25 Jul 2013

It's official: A panel of female automotive writers has chosen the Ford Fiesta 1.0-liter EcoBoost as the Womens World Car of the Year, and it beat tough competition like the Mazda CX-5, Range Rover and Porsche Boxster S for the overall top spot.
The CX-5 and Range Rover won the SUV and Luxury Car categories, respectively, and the Boxster S laid claim to the Sports Car category, beating the runner up Audi RS5 and third place Toyota GT86/Subaru BRZ (or Scion FR-S). The Audi Allroad was named the Family car of the year.
The panel consisted of 18 female automotive writers from around the world tasked with picking the best car in each of eight categories, including top vehicle overall, using criteria that women utilize when shopping for a car. That includes safety, value-for-money, aesthetic appearance, storage space, child-friendliness, ease-of-driving, color, sex appeal and environmental footprint.
