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

Ford reports 58% drop in Q2 profits on European losses

Wed, 25 Jul 2012



Ford Motor Company announced Wednesday that it has posted a $1 billion profit for the second quarter of 2012. That sounds like good news for the Blue Oval, until you take into account that Ford posted a $2.4 billion profit for Q2 a year ago. That is a substantial 58 percent loss.
Ford also posted $465 million in international losses, with $404 million of those losses coming directly from Europe. The automaker also increased its European loss projections to $1 billion for 2012, due in large part to the economic crisis overseas, which has resulted in increased unemployment and decreased consumer confidence.

Report: GM struggling to market turbo technology

Tue, 20 Apr 2010

In the automotive realm, marketing can sometimes prove just as important as the actual product. Take, for instance, Ford's well regarded EcoBoost technology, which couples turbocharging with direct injection to produce more horsepower and reduce fuel consumption. Would it surprise you to hear that General Motors has had similar technology on the market for over three years?
It's true. GM's first turbocharged, direct injected powerplants hit the market for the 2007 model. The 2.0-liter Ecotec mills put down an impressive 260 horsepower and a matching 260 pound-feet of torque, and they were lauded by the press in the engine bays of the Pontiac Solstice, Saturn Sky, Chevrolet Cobalt SS and Chevrolet HHR SS. But few people outside a core group of enthusiasts actually remember this fact.
Says Uwe Grebe, executive director of GM's global advanced engineering, "We didn't have a badge and say, 'This is the most important thing we will put on all our brochures.'" Ford, however, did just that, and it's EcoBoost engines are right at the tips of all our tongues when we discuss today's most advanced powerplants. So, how does The General fix its mistake?
