Very rare opportunity here. I am selling my truck because I really dont need this much truck. Most of the mileage was put on in the first 3 or 4 years. After that it ranged fro 2k -5k in a year. It only got that because I did not want it sitting and developing problems.

If you are seriously interested,contact me, I will end auction early until if and when reserve is met.

I will say up front that I know the price is premium. It is a premium condition truck and I have no intention of giving it away.  I have been watching and it is a super rare occasion that a regular cab truck comes available that is not worked to death. The truck was not detailed for pics or to sell. I took it out of the garage to take the pics and put it back. It stays this clean and stays inside.

Please bid only if you have the funds available to follow through. E bay is not cheap and if it meets reserve the final fees kick in.

Try finding this set up anywhere, chances are slim. If you want a regular cab loaded truck, Get it now. You will be very hard pressed to find a 10 year old truck in this condition. That being said, I dont have to sell it, but I would really like to see it used more for what it is. You can get in it right now and tow your camper,boat, or whatever, or you can hop in and go coast to coast. I is a very comfortable truck to drive. It is very easy to enter and exit with the grab handles and exterior steps.

The inside of the bed is used. I bought it for a truck, not a 34 thousand dollar people transport. There are scratches and probably some small dents in there. With the tonnea, you dont see them. If you have issues with the scratches, have it rhino lined. There is no rust in the cargo area.

Everything on the truck works just as it did when new.

I orderd this truck myself and have been the only driver on it since new. Actually my wife drove it a few times. It was never loaned out. Witht the exception of being in for service it was never out of my control.

Unless I was away with it, it never sat outside. It has been a garaged vehicle since new. The only option not on the truck is the back up sensors in the bumper. Not really sure why I did not just have them put on also. Every other option and package available was put on the truck when ordered.

The pictures are very self explanatory. You will be hard pressed to find a match to this truck. To this day I will be asked if it is new. Obviously it is normally people who dont know the visual difference of the newer models. Condition wise this is a solid 9.5 out of 10.

The top of the cab is just under 7 ft so it will fit in a 7 ft garage door. It is a 137 inch wheelbase

First the flaws. Left front corner of hood there is a small ding which I got on the PA turnpike last year. No idea what is was but sounded like a boulder hit it. easy repair but not without paint. Not very noticeable unless you are looking for it. The tailgate has two or 3 small dings from yours truly backing into a mailbox. These will come out with dent wizard but again you have to look for them.

On the interior there is a very fine scratch on the passenger side dash in the plastic caused by a buddy.

Thats it,  the rest is as close to brand new condition as you can get.

Original Items;  8800 gvwr package

All power, A/C, windows,locks, power and heated mirrors, power pedals,6 way drivers power seat, Interval wipers,cruise control, AM/FM/Casette/ single CD, Tilt wheel

Options included

Trailer tow package.

Package 607A  6.8 L V10 engine, 4 speed automatic transmission,3.73 axle ratios with limited slip rear

Advanced security group  Auto locks, auto headlights, Remote keyless entry

Bright tubular cab steps    sliding rear window   Camper package-rear stabilizer bar

FX4 Package   Skid plates    roof lights   Deluxe aluminum wheels ( removed after about 2-3 years, come with truck, still look brand new)

Snow plow package   Trailer hitch receiver,  cloth captain chairs,  

I ordered the manual front hubs and the manual 4wd shifter. I do not like the automatic and electronic crap. I have several friends who have had nothing but issues with the electronic.

The reason I had all of the available packages put on was that each one had something different in it.

This truck is sitting bare bones stock. It sits higher than my buddies F350 because of the spring packages.

Items I added

Tires and wheels. The tires DO NOT RUB.  They are in excellent shape. One year I had it in the mountains and had bad weather. I got sick and did not get it cleaned for a few weeks. The wheels got a little corrosion on them that you can see if you look close at the pics.  The original wheels are premium high polished aluminum and come with the truck if you want them.

Rear air assist air bags, can be seen in the pics. I run 5-8 lbs in them so that it does not drop when my quad is in the back. They do not harshen the ride.

Side and rear windows are tinted

Rear tonneau cover, May not be snapped in pics, but it is now and the print marks you see in the pics is from being rolled up. They do come out.

I changed my brakes and rotors just because of age, The pads were still 80% or better. I put slotted/dimpled rotors which have a lifetime no warp warranty. I do not know if it is transferrable.

It has a K&N air filter

Brake controller mounted I believe with velcro in the little cubby hole in the dash.

I have used Mobil one synthetic oil since after break in. It does not use any oil at all and has NO leaks.

Performance on the V10 is very impressive. The engine does not have to work hard at all. Around town and any towing will be 10 MPG just about always consistent. On the highway I have seen 14 MPG but again that is Highway running 65-75 mph. When I bought the truck I made chart comparisons with V10 vs diesel. Although the diesel hp and torque were higher, In the long run it never would have paid off for me. The cost of the diesel option, the extra cost of servicing and the fact that the fuel mileage is very comparible with diesel, and being 40 cents average higher per gallon, it did not make sense. This is my 2nd V10 and I would do it all over again. I have seen the banks Performance package numbers which wake this engine up even more.

Canadian buyers responsible for any paperwork to cross the border and all arrangements.

Local pick up. If you want it shipped its up to you, I will be available for shipper to pick it up. I can deliver for a fee depending where to. All money must be clear before truck is released. If you have concerns, I urge anyone to have a third party inspection. I will take it to any local shop of your choice.

10 yers old so no warranty expressed or implied, as is so be sure before you bid.

Any questions I can and will answer. I reserve the right to end auction early for any reason. If we meet reserve the auction will not end early so again I would ask you to bid only if you can follow through.

Roush getting back into sport compact business with Focus ST mods [w/video]

Wed, 29 May 2013

Roush Performance offers a whole raft of parts for folks looking to tune their Ford Mustang and F-150 models, and now Focus owners can start getting in on the hotted-up action, too. Owners of the 2012-13 Focus and 2013 Focus ST can now get a Roush cold-air intake system, and ST owners can also opt for a high-performance cat-back exhaust.
Although all of these components are now available for order, the parts will ship sometime in July; no word yet on pricing. Down the road, Roush will also offer styling upgrades for the Focus as well as performance tuning upgrades such as engine controller, suspension, wheels and tires. Scroll down for a quick video of what the Focus ST exhaust sounds like, as well as a Roush press release.

Automotive Grade Linux will be the backbone of your connected car

Fri, Jan 6 2017

Creating a backend for a secure, reliable, and expandable infotainment system is costly and time consuming. The Linux Foundation, a non-profit organization, has set out to promote and advance the Linux operating system in commercial products. Automotive Grade Linux, or AGL, is a group within the Foundation that seeks to apply a Linux backend to a number of automotive applications in a variety of vehicles from various suppliers and manufacturers. AGL's goal is to create a common, unifying framework that allows developers and manufacturers to easily implement applications across platforms. Currently, the focus is on infotainment systems, but AGL has plans for instrument clusters, heads-up displays, and eventually active safety software. At CES, a display from Panasonic showed a completely digital and customizable dashboard that allows information and apps to be moved from the gauge cluster to the infotainment screen and back, all through the use of gesture and touch controls. Although the organization has been around for five years, it's really only been in the past three that the group has been working hand in hand with automakers and suppliers. The first two OEMs to participate, Toyota and Jaguar Land Rover, have since been joined by Mazda, Suzuki, Ford, and, as of this week, Daimler. The latter is important as until now most of AGL's partner's have been based in Japan or the US. Other partners include suppliers Denso, Renesas, Continental, Qualcomm, and Intel. AGL want's to supply roughly 80 percent of the backend, allowing partners to then finish and refine the Linux system for each individual application. Think of how the Android operating system is refined and customized for individual smartphones from Samsung, LG, and Motorola. While the final product looks different, developers can have an application that will work across all AGL systems. Because it is open source, anyone can use and develop for AGL. You can even go onto the group's website and download a copy right now. There is also a software development kit available that helps facilitate app creation on the platform. Vehicle development cycles take roughly five years, so there currently are no cars that run an AGL backbone available for consumers. AGL Executive Director Dan Cauchy says products should be hitting the market later this year, with even more coming in 2018. Right now, the industry is relatively fragmented when it comes to infotainment and related systems.
