For sale is a 97 F250 with the 7.3L diesel and auto trans.  This pickup runs great, the transmission shifts nice and solid, mechanically sound pickup.  I have owned this pickup since it had 81,000 miles and it has been a solid pickup.  It has a lift and 35x12.50 R18 General Grabber tires on Moto Metal wheels.  I bought the wheels and tires about two years ago but they only have around 7,000 miles on them.  It has an onboard 12 volt air compressor, 3 gallon tank and air bags on the rear for towing.  K&N cold air intake, I had the exhaust straight piped and when I replaced the transmission around 8,000 miles ago (due to the stock one starting to slip) I replaced the stock pancake downpipe with a 3.5 inch round downpipe.  It has an Edge 60 hp 100 ft lb module.  This pickup has some minor body damage, there is a spot on the front driver fender on the bottom with a little spot of paint peel, there is a few scratches down the driver side on the rear of the bed and a dent on the extended cab, none of which are hugely noticeable.  The interior is in good shape for a 16 year old pickup.  All the seats and carpet are in good shape the only cracks on the dash are on that soft pad on the passenger side the same spot every ford in that body style crack, they're not too bad.  It has a nice stereo system in it, was real good in its day but I'm sure there is better out there now.  It still sounds good.  Pioneer deck, two MTX 10 inch sub woofers with amp and all four of the stock speakers have been replaced with Infinity speakers.  Under the dash are the controls to add or release air from the rear air bags.  The power door locks and power windows all work like they're suppose to.

Ford Mustang outsold Audi TT and Porsche 911 in Germany

Fri, Apr 8 2016

Despite being the antithesis of the cars Germany is known for, the new Ford Mustang was the best selling sports car in the land of schnitzel and beer last month by a whisker. The Mustang beat out the Audi TT by 780 units to 708, and it beat Germany's best known performance car, the Porsche 911, 780 to 752. That makes some sense, right? The Mustang has to be cheaper than those competitors, right? Not really. Both the EcoBoost and V8-powered Mustang have higher starting prices than the equivalent TT. The 2.3-liter, EcoBoost-powered Mustang starts at 38,000 euros (around $43,300 at today's rates), while the front-drive Audi TT starts at 35,950 euros (about $41,000). The V8-powered Mustang GT, meanwhile, starts at 43,000 euros (about $49,000), which is just 2,550 euros more than the Quattro-equipped TT. When 310 horsepower or 435 hp can be had for just a couple thousand more than 220 hp, it's easy to understand the Mustang's success. The 911, of course, is a lot more expensive than the Mustang. You can buy two Mustang GTs for the price of a single Carrera. But Ford also managed to beat out the Porsche's smaller siblings, the Boxster and Cayman twins, which sold a combined 642 vehicles. Again, the pony car is significantly cheaper, but that doesn't do much to lessen the impact of the Mustang's victory. If you're in Germany and are concerned about this American invasion, you shouldn't be (yet). The TT is Germany's best-selling sports car from January through March, with 2,299 to the Ford's 1,823. Porsche is breathing down the pony car's neck, too, with 1,811 units in 2016. It'll be interesting to see if Ford's successful March carries on into the rest of 2016. Related Video:

Ford board pushing Mulally for decision amidst fears story is drowning out other news

Thu, 12 Dec 2013

Automakers and their executives rarely like to divulge information regarding future goings on, but the board of directors at Ford sound like they're getting a little antsy about chief executive officer Alan Mulally and his plans for 2014.
According to Reuters, as news of Mulally's possible departure to Microsoft continues to swirl, Ford's board is looking to push the affable executive to make a decision about his future sooner rather than later. Apparently, the board is growing concerned that this will-he/won't-he drama may end up distracting the media from covering Ford's other big news events next year - items like the debut of key all-new products like the Mustang and F-150.
So far, the picture for Mulally's eventual successor remains fuzzy, but it's understood that the leading candidate remains the company's chief operating officer, Mark Fields. Just recently, we heard that Mulally will stay until the end of 2014, but a few months ago, Ford seemed open to the idea of him stepping down earlier than that.

Tier 1 suppliers call GM the worst OEM to work with

Mon, 12 May 2014

Among automakers with a big US presence, General Motors is the worst to work for, according to a new survey from Tier 1 automotive suppliers, conducted by Planning Perspectives, Inc.
The Detroit-based manufacturer, which has been under fire following the ignition switch recall and its accompanying scandal, finished behind six other automakers with big US manufacturing operations. Suppliers had issues with trust and communications, as well as intellectual property protection. GM was also the least likely to allow suppliers to raise their prices in the face of unexpected increases in material cost, all of which contributed to 55 percent of suppliers saying their relationship with GM was "poor to very poor."
GM's cross-town competitors didn't fare much better. Chrysler finished in fifth place, ahead of GM and behind Dearborn-based Ford, which was passed for third place this year by Nissan. Toyota took the top marks, while Honda captured second place.
