This truck was purchased new in 1999 by the Town of Atlanta, Indiana. Since that time, the Utility Department have utilized this truck for plowing snow, transporting parts and supplies, and general daily transportation. This truck is far from perfect, but it's very functional. Here are a few details:
The good:
8' Western Snow Plow
-Joystick control. New pump, and solenoid. Regularly serviced. The plow was completely disassembled repainted a few years ago. Fairly new cutting edge. The trip shock absorber is missing, so the plow slams if tripped. Plow operates well overall.
Western Tailgate Salt Spreader
-A bit rusty, but worked well when we stopped using it a few years ago (we bought a new truck, equipped with a larger spreader). The Salt Spreader has been stored with cover on, in a shed, out of the weather.
Truck has many new parts:
-New spark plugs and boots (129,269mi)
-New rear shocks (126,879mi)
-New alternator (121,283mi)
-New shift linkage bushings, plunger, and tube (120,273mi)
-New blower motor, blower motor resistor, fan switch, temperature blend door actuator (119,236mi)
-New transmission filter and fluid (119,060mi)
-New starter (117,700mi)
-New heater core (116,000mi)
-New right front axle seals, axle housing, hub bearing (111,715mi)
-New front and rear brake rotors and pads, front right/left calipers, right rear caliper (110,708mi)
In addition to the above list of repairs, the truck has been regularly serviced since 2008 (incomplete/missing records pre-'08). Regular oil changes, front end lubrication, fluid checks, filter changes, etc have been performed. Full coolant flush was performed at 119,060mi. Tires are at about 40% tread. The truck includes a good matching spare tire.
There don't appear to be any leaks from the engine, transmission, differentials, cooling system, fuel system, etc. The stains on the ground in the pictures are from another piece of equipment.
The Weatherguard toolbox pictured is included with the truck. The lid of the toolbox no longer stays up on its own, due to bad/broken struts. Its also pretty rusty, particularly on the lid.
Now the bad:
-The engine uses around 1qt of oil every 1000-1500mi.
-The truck runs rough at idle, and hesitates/misfires badly under moderate acceleration. Once cruising speed is reached, the truck does pretty well.
-The engine knocks a bit.
-The exhaust manifolds leak a bit.
-The left front axle needs work (clanks when driving while engaged).
-The front end is worn. Ball joints may need to be replaced.
-The A/C system does not operate. The truck seems to be stuck in heat, because turning the temperature selector to "cold" does not seem to effect the air temperature. As stated above, the blend door actuator has been replaced. May need temperature control switch?
-The fuel gauge does not work (always reads "Full").
-The brakes work well, but squeal when used.
-The under-bed spare tire cable is broken.
-The left front wheel cover is missing.
-The headliner is falling. It's currently pinned up.
-The dome light is missing its cover, and has no bulb.
-There are cracks, scuffs, and a few holes in the dashboard.
-The exterior of the truck has dents, scratches, and rust all around. As seen in the pictures, the tailgate is badly dented, but operates correctly.
Please message if you have any questions. I have been as accurate as I can be, but I will update this listing if I remember anything else.
Local pickup only.

Child cobalt miners: Automakers pledge ethical minerals sourcing for EVs
Wed, Nov 29 2017BERLIN - Leading carmakers including Volkswagen and Toyota pledged on Wednesday to uphold ethical and socially responsible standards in their purchases of minerals for an expected boom in electric vehicle production. Demand for minerals such as cobalt, graphite and lithium is forecast to soar in the coming years as governments crack down on vehicle pollution and carmakers step up their investments in electric models. To cover its plans for more than 80 new models by 2025, Volkswagen alone is looking for partners in China, Europe and North America to provide battery cells and related technology worth more than 50 billion euros ($59 billion). Talks with major cobalt producers, including Glencore, at VW's Wolfsburg headquarters last week ended without a deal. More than half of the world's cobalt comes from the Democratic Republic of Congo, a country racked by political instability and legal opacity, and where child labor is used in mines. On Wednesday, a group of 10 leading passenger-car and truck manufacturers announced an initiative to jointly identify and address ethical, environmental, human and labor rights issues in raw materials sourcing. The partnership dubbed "Drive Sustainability" consists of VW, Toyota Motor Europe, Ford, Daimler, BMW, Honda, Jaguar Land Rover, Volvo Cars and truckmakers Scania and Volvo. The alliance "will assess the risks posed by the top raw materials (such as mica, cobalt, rubber and leather) in the automotive sector," said Stefan Crets of the CSR Europe business network. "This will allow Drive Sustainability to identify the most impactful activities to pursue" to address issues within the supply chain.Reporting by Andreas Cremer.Related Video: Image Credit: Michael Robinson Chavez/The Washington Post via Getty Images Green BMW Ford Honda Jaguar Land Rover Mercedes-Benz Automakers Toyota Volkswagen Volvo Green Automakers Green Culture Electric Scania ethics mining
