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.
The 1999 Ford F-250, and any accessories attached thereon, including, but not limited to the Western Snow Plow, and Western Salt Spreader, are being sold together, AS IS. No warranties are hereby written or implied.

Ford dealers offered discounts on tools to fix aluminum
Mon, 27 Jan 2014With the introduction of the aluminum-bodied 2015 Ford F-150 (and the likely use of aluminum in future Ford products), Ford is looking to help its dealerships reduce costs related to repairing this more labor-intensive material. Automotive News is reporting that Ford dealers with body shops will require an estimated $30,000 to $50,000 in equipment and training to work on aluminum, and to help alleviate the financial burden of the new F-150, Ford has announced a special 20-percent discount on this equipment.
Dealers will be able to save up to $10,000 on tools such as welders, air-filtration systems and rivet guns and to create aluminum-specific work stations. The new F-150 goes on sale in the fourth quarter, and dealers have until October 31 to take advantage of this deal, according to the report.
