Here's a lot of truck for not a lot of money! Take a look a 1998 Ford F-250 4x4 with a lot of power and extras. For starters, finding an F-250 4x4 can be a challenge, next, to find one with these miles (110...) and for this price, now you'll be looking for a while. Then add to the fact that this is a XLT, NOT A stripped down work truck, and you realize that you have found a way to save money, make money, and like what you are driving.
You have here a 1998 Ford F-250 4x4 that has a clean title, ready to be transferred to the new owner. The color is Red and Silver trimmed. The paint is nice and shiny, no red dusting or clear coat pealing. Take a look at the miles!! Better than average!!!
The interior of the truck is good condition with little wear. The seat is in good shape, a three passenger with a folding arm rest in the center. There are cup holders as you can see in the pictures. A power outlet next to the drivers knee. The truck comes equipped with a Working Factory Cruise Control for those long trips on the highway, this option is nice, because many F-250 do not have this, this one does. The A/C is in working condition and is cold. The radio is a standard Ford radio that is in working condition as well.
The motor in this truck is a 5.4 Liter V-8. A very dependable, powerful, and long lasting motor traditionally. This motor was used in many Ford trucks and SUVs, so parts and maintenance are easy find. This is a quite running motor that idles smoothly, and runs down the interstate even smoother (I was impressed and I drive one myself). The transmission is tight and shifts smoothly, it does have the electric over-drive shifter on the gear selector, to quickly go from OD to drive when pulling a load or otherwise. The 4x4 is in working condition. It engages easily from the knob on the right side of the driver, from 2 wheel high to 4 wheel high then to 4 wheel-low range.The steering is tight, the truck tracks straight down the road without pulling right or left. The brakes stop smoothly and straight as well, no noises. The tires are in good shape as you can see in the pictures and there is a spare located under the truck bed.
Now for the extras!!! This unit come equipped with a hide away 5th Wheel attachment as you can see in the pictures. So whether you are pulling or hauling a load in the bed, or doing both in the same day, you are just seconds from going from one to the other. This is very nice feature for those who want an all around work truck. It does also have a heavy duty standard style hitch attached to the frame under the bumper for normal pulling of boats, campers, etc.. You can also see that in the cab pictures, this truck has a electric trailer braking system already installed and the trailer lighting plug is the large round style (see the tailgate picture).
Like we mentioned a lot of truck for not a lot of money!!!

10 automakers shack up in Detroit hotel to talk Takata airbags
Sun, Dec 14 2014Since Takata has decided not to take the lead concerning potential issues with its airbag inflators, the automakers have. Perhaps that's unsurprising, since it's the automakers, not Takata, that will take a beating on the dealership floor if consumers decide its models are a health hazards. The Detroit News reports that Toyota, Honda, General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Mazda, BMW, Nissan, Mitsubishi and Subaru met in a hotel conference room near the Detroit Metropolitan Airport last week to sort out a way to understand the technical issues involved. So far, faulty airbag inflators have been ruled the cause of five deaths and 50 injuries around the world, but neither Takata nor investigators understands exactly why the inflators are malfunctioning. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recently asked Takata to issue a national recall, Takata declined, citing a minuscule failure rate and the fact that it's still investigating the issue. Toyota and Honda then made an industry-wide appeal for "a coordinated, comprehensive testing program" that would pinpoint the problem inflators and get them replaced, and that's what the Detroit meeting was about. Numerous issues, however, will make this a long row to hoe: simply getting the parts to replace the nearly 20 million inflators in cars recalled around the world so far - even working with other suppliers - will take a years, but more importantly, no one knows if the replacement inflators currently being installed will suffer the same issue. Answers will hopefully come quickly with Takata, the ten automakers and NHTSA all independently investigating the problem.

Ford to add Android Auto and CarPlay to 2016 SYNC 3 cars via update
Fri, May 19 2017Ford is updating a large number of 2016 model year cars equipped with SYNC 3 infotainment software, adding Android Auto and CarPlay to the vehicles with a free, over-the-air update via Wi-Fi, or using either USB or going through their dealer. The upgrade will be available for around 800,000 vehicles in total, giving a huge number of Ford car owners the chance to get big infotainment improvements without having to buy a newer model car. The OTA update option is also a big step for Ford – it's the company's first for software ever, and it's one of the major reasons that Ford recently hired around 400 new mobile smartphone engineers, the company tells me. For CarPlay, users will still also need to upgrade their vehicle's USB hub to make this work (which will also incur a dealer visit and a cost), but for those on Android, all that's required is a simple software installation. The USB install method is also faster, but the Wi-Fi update option is the start of the company's efforts to really increase its OTA update program, which will be used for security improvements as well as infotainment bumps. Even with a dealer visit and hardware upgrade for CarPlay, this sounds like a worthwhile thing for 2016 vehicle owners to do. CarPlay and Android Auto are huge upgrades vs. most in-car software, offering navigation and entertainment options that follow you from your phone to your car. Retroactively offering this kind of thing to car owners is a definite change in tone for carmakers, since they typically use these kinds of things as incentives to get people interested in vehicle model updates. But as data becomes increasingly important to automakers as a business, it makes sense to encourage greater in-car use of devices.Written by Darrell Etherington for TechCrunchRelated Video: Auto News Ford Lincoln Technology Infotainment android
