I bought this truck from a friend a while ago. It was his daily driver. He commuted to Ohio and back every week, therefore the high mileage. The last time he drove it, the engine light came on and the oil pressure dropped. He immediately pulled over and had it towed to his mechanic. The mechanic checked it out and seems to think it needs an oil pump. Without tearing into the motor, it's hard to diagnose I guess. He didn't want to invest any money into it because he had recently bought a car to commute with. So I bought the truck with the intention of fixing or replacing the motor. Since I've had the truck at my house, I haven't been able to repeat the problem! I haven't taken the truck on the road because I didn't put plates on it, but I drive it around the yard and no issues! It sounds/runs good. Could use manifold gaskets, but even that quiets down after about 15 seconds. The 4 wheel drive works good. Air Conditioning blows cold. Trans shifts good. Clean leather interior. Premium stereo. Power options. Tow package. Tires have about 3,000 miles. Alternator and belts replaced last fall. Brakes and rotors new. Small rust bubbles on rear wheel wells. Front bumper has surface rust from stone chips.
Like I said, this was his daily driver until the engine issue. I've just decided to sell it and get a 2 wheel drive truck.
The engine issue may be something minor, and someone will get a great deal. Or the worst case scenario is that it needs a new engine, and therefore my low starting price with NO RESERVE! But I'm not a mechanic, so keep that in mind. The truck is available evenings for anyone to come check it out. It runs and drives but I'm not letting anyone take it on the road. No plates, insurance or inspection. Plus, it runs good now, but at high speeds nobody knows. At least now I can move it around! So please respect that. I would urge the winning bidder to have it towed rather than drive it home.
To arrange a time to see it, or any questions you may have, please email me.
Thanks, and good luck bidding.

I've had questions about the truck that I will answer for everyone;
* YES, the toolboxes will be sold with the truck. And I have multiple keys for the boxes, plus many spares.
* There is no frame damage on the truck.
* The truck was undercoated when it was purchased new, and in very good shape underneath. Only minimal surface rust, NO structural damage whatsoever.
* The truck has idled in my driveway 5-10 minutes, and I've driven around the yard. Like I said, it runs great! But I haven't taken it on the road or run it at high idle. It revs up with no noises or issues, but I'm not gonna push it. At this point I can move it around and I don't want to make any further problems if there are any. That's up to the buyer. But I'll start and drive it for anyone to see. Like I said....bid as though the motor needs to be replaced. That way you won't be disappointed. But there may be no issues with it.
* The engine light came on for the previous owner, but it's not on now and I didn't have a diagnostic check done since I've had it.
* The oil has about 2000 miles on it, and it's clean. No metal filings.

Ford considering return to Le Mans with new EcoBoost LMP2
Mon, 21 Jul 2014If you want to see a Ford racing prototype, you need look no further than the United SportsCar Championship, where the Blue Oval fields two Daytona Prototypes powered by an EcoBoost-branded 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6. But according to the latest rumors, that may not be enough for Ford, which has as much brand to promote overseas as it does back home.
That could be why Racer magazine is reporting that Ford may be poised to return to Le Mans in the coming years. As we all know, Ford competed at Le Mans in the mid-through-late '60s, bringing home four consecutive overall wins with the legendary GT40. The new program would not, according to Racer, seek to relive those glory days, but would instead compete for class wins in the LMP2 category.
Currently, LMP2 regulations are somewhat split between the United SportsCar Championship in North America on the one hand and ACO-sanctioned series like the European Le Mans Series, Asian Le Mans Series and FIA World Endurance Championship on the other, but plans are underway for the regulations to be unified in time for the 2017 season. That could be when Ford is targeting its return, allowing it to compete on both sides of the Atlantic to maximize its exposure.
2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost to hit 45 mpg for $16,445*
Mon, 28 Oct 2013When Ford first announced its plan to put the 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine under the hood of the 2014 Fiesta, it promised hybrid-like fuel economy without a hybrid-like premium. We're still waiting for official specs on this engine, but thanks to the EPA's fueleconomy.gov website and Ford's retail site, we now know what customers can expect in terms of both fuel economy and price.
All along, Ford has said that it expects the 1.0-liter EcoBoost to get more than 40 miles per gallon on the highway, and now the EPA backs this up with official ratings of 32 mpg in the city and 45 mpg on the highway. These numbers are an increase of two mpg city and four mpg hwy compared to the current fuel-sipping Fiesta (the 1.6 SFE), and it also beats other three-cylinder cars for highway mileage like the 2014 Mitsubishi Mirage (44 mpg highway) and 2014 Smart Fortwo (38 mpg highway); the Fiesta 1.0 EcoBoost is lower than both three-pot rivals, though, in city fuel economy with the Mitsubishi getting 37 mpg city and the Smart rated at 34 mpg city. This model handily beats high-volume small cars like the Honda Fit, Toyota Yaris and Chevy Spark in both city and highway numbers.
As for pricing, the 1.0-liter EcoBoost is offered on both the sedan and hatchback as a $995 option called the SE Manual EcoBoost package, which is aptly named since it's only offered on SE trim-level Fiestas equipped with a manual transmission. Along with the engine, the package also comes with 15-inch steel wheels, regenerative brakes and a decklid spoiler on the sedan. This means the four-door Fiesta 1.0 EcoBoost will start at $16,445*, or $17,045* for the hatchback (*not including $795 for destination).
Ford vandalizes the SEMA Show floor with 2014 Transit Connect
Tue, 05 Nov 2013The Ford booth here at SEMA is practically a 1970s throwback with all these customized vans sitting front and center. And we're completely fine with that. Take the black and yellow (black and yellow, black and yellow) 2014 Transit Connect from Mobsteel above. It's got a great stance, sits on steel wheels and has a pretty cool paint job and graphics package to boot.
Of course, that's not the only van you can see at the Ford booth. In fact, there are 10 Transit Connect vans on display from Ford here at SEMA, and you can see them all in our live gallery of high-res images above. Then, if you want to know more about each specific model, feel free to scroll down to read all about these vans in the official press release from Ford.
