2001 Ford F-350 Superduty 7.3L Turbodiesel Shortbed Crewcab aka "Mass Transit"

The 7.3L engine is well known for reliability and endurance...only 124,508 miles driven and never been in an accident.

This has been a great truck for me, built for camping, exploring and road trips. It has a raised platform in the bed with comfortable foam pads to sleep on with underneath storage. The canopy has a place to hang clothes (dry or air out when camping), in the bed a step stool to get in easier as well as reading lights and 3 DC power ports to plug in electronics. Yes, it comes with 3/8" chains for all 4 tires in preparation for nasty winters up north. Chains alone were $1000 and of course, never used.

It has been very reliable and has a great entertainment system, the amplifiers and subwoofers pump out very clean sound. The powerful 7.3L turbo diesel engine and strong transmission have both been treated very well. Tan leather interior is in excellent shape. From the 12,000 LB winch and 52 gallon fuel tank to the multiple off-road lights and ground clearance - this vehicle is made to get the owner almost anywhere in all sorts of weather in pretty decent comfort.  Plus she looks damn good too.

Issues
Small parking lot ding on the lower driver's door.
Little bit of surface rust on the powdercoating of the traction bars and pre-run bars on the bumpers. Shocks have some too, all from salted winter roads up in Canada, about normal for age. Shocks probably should be replaced in 2-3 years anyway though. It is all cosmetic as everything functions fantastic.


I have receipts for every bit of maintenance, accessories and upgrade performed since I bought the vehicle in 2008. All these receipts are scanned online and can be shared to serious buyers via Dropbox if you'd like to audit them.

Will show on appointment only and can arrange for mechanics inspection as well. I have a clear title on this machine. Sorry but I am not interested in trades or owner financing.

Ford, Samsung shack up to bring regen braking to non-hybrid models [w/video]

Mon, 09 Jun 2014

Ford must be desperate to get itself ready for the beach this summer because it is really trying to get into shape. Shortly after unveiling the Lightweight Concept that cut the weight of a Fusion down to that of a Fiesta, it's now the rest of the line's turn for improvement. The company is wrapping up a 10-year research project aimed at developing next-gen automotive batteries to improve efficiency.
Ford claims that 70 percent of its lineup will have stop/start tech by 2017. The key to this massive proliferation is its new dual-battery system that combines a lithium-ion battery with a lead-acid one and regenerative braking. The setup works by harvesting braking energy and converting it to electricity. When the vehicle stops, the engine shuts off, but the Li-ion battery has enough juice to keep the accessories running. The engine starts up again as drivers take their foot off the brake. The layout would mean less wasted gas while idling. It's already available on Ford hybrids and is somewhat similar to the i-Eloop capacitor-based system from Mazda.
The bigger challenge is tuning the regenerative braking right. While hybrid drivers may be a little more adventurous, when it comes to getting a hang of regen braking, conventional buyers might not be so open-minded. The systems have a tendency to be a little grabby at first and then taper off at very low speeds. Ford needs to make sure it's just right to avoid turning off buyers.

eBay Find of the Day: 25-station video gaming trailer w/ bonus Ford F-250

Fri, Nov 28 2014

Why, you might be asking yourself, is Autoblog showing me an eBay Motors listing for a 2006 Ford F-250 and a box trailer (with a badly cropped photo to boot)? It's not because we're highly interested in this blue-collar rig, to be sure, but rather because we're interested in throwing the greatest Forza party of all time. Housed in that innocuous white 26-foot trailer is a gamer's delight, with 25 Xbox 360 systems connected up to 25 high-definition monitors and 24 headsets to keep everyone locked into the action (one of the stations is outside the trailer). When connected up to one of two included generators, the setup allows for two-dozen combatants to square off, back-to-back and head-to-head. Sure, the Buy It Now price of $79,000 seems steep considering the trailer will need about ten grand worth of Xbox One or Playstation 4 upgrades in the near future. But that doesn't mean you couldn't squeeze out a few more years of massive multiplayer fun. Check out the listing here, and do let us know if you buy it, we'd love to come over and game.

Ford dealer gives James Robertson new 2015 Taurus

Fri, Feb 6 2015

James Robertson, the 56-year-old Detroit native famous for walking 21 miles to work each day for the last 10 years, is behind the wheel again thanks to a gift from a Ford dealer. Robertson became an Internet sensation when the story about his daily ordeal came to light, and a GoFundMe campaign initially hoped to raise $5,000 to buy him a new ride. As of this writing, it has reached over $300,000. He didn't have to dip into any of that money to buy the new car, though. According to The Detroit Free Press, Suburban Ford of Sterling Heights, MI, heard about Robertson's story of never being late to work and having perfect attendance. The dealer is donating a fully loaded, red 2015 Taurus to him. It's not one of our choices, but certainly nothing to sneeze at. Robertson started walking to work in 2005 when his Honda broke down. According to the GoFundMe page, his job is about 23 miles away, but thanks to Detroit's poor bus network, he covers about 21 miles of that round-trip trek on foot each day.
