Up for auction is my 2003 Ford F-350 Crew Cab XLT 7.3 Liter Powerstroke Diesel truck. It has four wheel drive and the off road package. The truck is very clean and in excellent running condition. I'm the second owner. It has 2 batteries, a K&N air filter recently added, undercoating of chassis (see pic), very clean interior with no tears, no cracked glass, a Ford bed-liner, tilting rear seat with storage behind, 6 seat belts, an 8 ft bed, sliding rear glass, nearly brand new BF Goodrich tires, a CD player, and a lot of power! It has the one ton truck heavy duty tow package. I had the front door windows tinted at legal limit in Florida. The tint is LLumar FormulaOne (ceramic) and comes with a transferable lifetime warranty - there's an actual credit card styled card that goes with it (see picture, sorry got cut off a bit). This is the best automotive window tint in the US. 2003 was the final and best year that the 7.3 liter Powerstroke was produced, and also the first year the 6.0 liter Powerstroke was introduced (which was an utter disaster). I've now owned two 7.3's and absolutely love them.
Because I always ask when purchasing a vehicle, here's why I'm selling the truck: After looking extensively for a couple weeks, I purchased it from the original owner in December 2012. I sold my home in Florida in December, but was not moving to California for medical school until July 2013. I bought the truck and a 30 ft trailer to move to my Florida apartment in January 2013, store the majority of my belongings for 6 months, and the to move to Loma Linda, CA in July 2013. In between moves, for the first half of 2013, I drove the truck a few times a week to school part time. I've now started med school here in California, and as much as I love the truck, I need the tuition money more. That's why I bought the truck and am selling it so quickly - that was the plan and it has served its purpose. My wife and I each have a car and we don't need the truck at this point in our lives.
The truck performed flawlessly for both moves. Coming to California I hauled a 30 ft trailer loaded down with all of my belongings, about 9500 lbs in all, and the truck towed it effortlessly. The transmission shifts smooth and the diesel engine is a powerhouse. I also tested out the four wheel drive when I needed to pull the trailer up a dirt drive incline - it works great. All in all, it's a fantastic truck and will make its 3rd owner proud.
Feel free to email with questions. As I mentioned, I'm in med school and consequently don't have time to meet for test drives/viewings. I've included everything I can think of in the listing and will be happy to answer anything additionally via email. I have a clear Florida title in hand, with no lien's (see picture, I covered identifying info). BTW, the brake controller and hitch/ball shown in the pictures do not come with the truck (the receiver hitch is included with truck). Happy bidding!

Chevy Silverado frame twist test a marketing victory versus Ford
Thu, 16 Oct 2014The pickup market is so competitive that all three major American makers are constantly trying to find a way to prove their product is the best. The new 2015 Ford F-150 is grabbing headlines at the moment by winning awards and posting segment best numbers. But in a new video, Chevrolet is taking aim squarely at the 2015 F-250 Super Duty in a battle of heavy-duty truck supremacy against the 2015 Chevy Silverado 2500HD... well, in a single metric anyway.
The big numbers from pickups often come down to payload, towing rating and fuel economy, but for this test, Chevy and Howie Long are challenging the torsional rigidity of the trucks' frames, specifically which one flexes less. Long plays the everyman here having the Chevy engineer explain what's going on in the tests. Unsurprisingly for a video on Chevy's official YouTube page, the 2500HD wins out by a good margin. The company also reports that similar results as shown here have been certified in third-party testing.
Check out the video to see the full test. While this might seem like a marketing win for Chevy, Ford isn't immune to it, either. In 2009, the Blue Oval uploaded a similar video comparing the flex under 225 pounds of weight from the bare frames of the F-150, Chevy Silverado, Dodge Ram (as it was still called at the time) and the Toyota Tundra. The results fell in the Blue Oval's favor, as you can see here.
2016 Ford Focus RS mule spotted on US soil
Tue, 17 Jun 2014Okay Ford, this is what we like to see. One of our intrepid spy photographers has captured a vehicle that we weren't even sure would see the light of day - the next Focus RS. While this is pretty clearly a mule based on the current Focus ST, as our spy points out, there are a number of giveaways about this hot hatch's true nature.
Indication number one that all is not right with this Focus is the heavily camo'd front fascia, which has been completely reconfigured for duty on the RS. It boasts significantly larger grilles that are meant to accommodate what is likely the 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder that's destined for the 2015 Ford Mustang. Considering that, then, we can expect around 300 horsepower and 300 pound-feet of torque from the hottest of Foci, although it's entirely possible that the production model could climb even higher, to around 330 hp.
The front fascia tweaks are complemented in the back by a modified rear bumper, which fails at hiding a pair of exhaust tips quite unlike the standard Focus ST's center-exit exhaust. Other obvious changes include the wheel/tire/brake package on this particular car. Larger 19-inch wheels are shod in super-sticky Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires in 235/35/19 while the brakes feature what we think are four-piston calipers, possibly from Brembo, up front.
2022 Rivian R1T vs. 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning vs. GMC Hummer EV Pickup | How they compare on paper
Tue, Sep 28 2021The 2022 Rivian R1T has arrived, ushering in the era of the production electric pickup truck. The Rivian reviews are in, and spoiler alert: They're pretty good. Curious how the new battery-powered truck stacks up to its forthcoming competitors? Well, you've come to the right place. Rivian beat all of Detroit's big automakers to market in the half-ton segment, but probably not by the margin the startup would have liked. Ford's answer is the F-150 Lightning, which is due to enter production early next year, coming hot on the heels of GM's first entry into the space – the GMC Hummer EV pickup – which is scheduled to come off the line late this fall. While all three are pickups, they're aimed at distinctly different buyers, as a perusal of their specifications will reveal. Let's have a look, shall we?  Disclaimer: Before we dive in on this one, we'd like to note that while we've made our best effort to verify the specs provided, the Rivian is brand-new and the others are still in the prototype phase. Some of these figures may be inaccurate or may simply change before production. This is all hypothetical until you can actually cross-shop them anyway, right? Cool. End disclaimer. Let's start with the powertrains. They're all battery-electric trucks engineered on a modular rear-wheel-drive configuration engineered to accommodate (theoretically, anyway) up to four electric drive units. Rivian actually makes the most use of this with a quad-motor setup producing 835 horsepower and 908 pound-feet of torque with its high-output initial model. GMC's three-motor Hummer has the R1T beat with its estimated 1,000-horsepower output, while Ford's (also three-motor) comes in with a far more modest 563 horses. This is an excellent illustration of our above point that these are not all engineered for the same crowd. Ford's F-150, which comes in at a lower price point, is meant to be far more mainstream, as its power output suggests. This theme continues when we look at the dimensions. Despite the image "Hummer" may conjure, GMC's entry actually needs the shallowest parking space. The Rivian is right behind it, with the work-truck-spec Ford extending more than a foot longer than either. What the Hummer lacks in length, it makes up for in girth. It's the widest by a good 5 inches. The Rivian is only slightly pudgier than the F-150, but it's much closer at that end of the scale.
