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.

Expert: 54.5 mpg CAFE standard can be reached without many plug-ins

Sat, Jan 18 2014

Johnson Controls executive Brian Kesseler isn't likely to get any holiday presents this year from Nissan chief Carlos Ghosn or Tesla Motors head Elon Musk, but lots of other folks might be happy with what he has to say about automakers' efforts to reach stricter fleetwide fuel-economy standards. Speaking at the Automotive News World Congress, Kesseler said automakers wouldn't need to sell an extensive number of plug-in vehicles in order to meet the 54.5 mile per gallon Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standard the US government set in 2012 for 2025 model-year vehicles. In fact, he said, components such as stop-start engine technology, turbochargers and direct injection may actually do the trick. Already, things like smaller engine sizes and lighter cars are already playing major roles in spurring fuel-efficiency gains. Of course, Johnson Controls sells batteries specially built for stop-start systems, so Kesseler does have a bit of skin in this game. The 54.5-mpg CAFE standard equates to about a 40-mpg "real world" fuel-efficiency level. To put that into perspective, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said in a report late last year that model-year 2013 average fuel economy was an even 24 mpg. That was up from 23.6 mpg for the 2012 model year and 22.4 mpg for 2011.

Ford reveals EcoBoost-powered Riley prototype for Daytona 24

Tue, 01 Oct 2013

It's not the first time Ford has participated in the Daytona Prototype class as an engine supplier, but in revealing this new EcoBoost V6-powered Riley Technologies prototype for the new United SportsCar Championship, Ford is making a statement: "We want to show Ford EcoBoost's capabilities as an engine that provides both performance and fuel economy, on and off the track," says Jamie Allison, director of Ford Racing.
In addition to supplying the 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6, Ford had its production designer Garen Nicoghosian give the racecar brand-inspired design cues with support from Ford Racing chief aerodynamicist Bernie Marcus.
The car is scheduled to compete at next year's Rolex 24 at Daytona on January 25-26, but before that, Michael Shank Racing is working with Ford at another goal. Driving his Ford Thunderbird, NASCAR champion Bill Elliott set the track's top speed record at 210.364 miles per hour during a qualifying run for the Daytona 500 - way back in 1987 -- and Ford thinks it's about time for that record to fall. What better time the introduction of this new Ford-powered Daytona Prototype? Michael Shank Racing plans to use the twin-turbo V6-powered racer to beat Elliott's record, and it expects to begin prepping for the top-speed run on October 9.

Report: GM struggling to market turbo technology

Tue, 20 Apr 2010

In the automotive realm, marketing can sometimes prove just as important as the actual product. Take, for instance, Ford's well regarded EcoBoost technology, which couples turbocharging with direct injection to produce more horsepower and reduce fuel consumption. Would it surprise you to hear that General Motors has had similar technology on the market for over three years?
It's true. GM's first turbocharged, direct injected powerplants hit the market for the 2007 model. The 2.0-liter Ecotec mills put down an impressive 260 horsepower and a matching 260 pound-feet of torque, and they were lauded by the press in the engine bays of the Pontiac Solstice, Saturn Sky, Chevrolet Cobalt SS and Chevrolet HHR SS. But few people outside a core group of enthusiasts actually remember this fact.
Says Uwe Grebe, executive director of GM's global advanced engineering, "We didn't have a badge and say, 'This is the most important thing we will put on all our brochures.'" Ford, however, did just that, and it's EcoBoost engines are right at the tips of all our tongues when we discuss today's most advanced powerplants. So, how does The General fix its mistake?
