The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Excellent condition. I purchased the truck from original owner. No mechanical problems. Driver's side interior door panel has some scuffs inside door cubbies/cup holders (shown in picture). The body is straight and beautiful with the following minor exceptions. There is a door ding on the driver's side front door (shown in picture). There is an indentation on the inside of the tailgate, visible only when tailgate is open (shown in picture). A landscaping rock was placed on the tailgate and dented it. Other than these three imperfections, the truck is in excellent condition with just minor wear/tear. To my knowledge, according to original owner and while I've owned it, it has never been in an accident. It has been very well taken care of."

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!

Obama to herald auto industry turnaround from idled Ford plant

Tue, Jan 6 2015

President Barack Obama will tout the recent successes of the American auto industry in a speech on Wednesday. This would be a fine and dandy plan aside from two small hitches. First, the president is visiting Ford's Wayne, MI factory, which is rather strange considering the government bailed out the company's local rivals, Chrysler and General Motors. Even more worrying, considering the topic of the speech, is that the Wayne facility has been idled due to a lack of demand. According to The Detroit News, the White House said the speech will focus on "the workers in the resurgent American automotive and manufacturing sector now that the auto rescue has been completed and the decision to save the auto industry and the over one million jobs that went with it." Wayne Assembly employs some 5,100 Michiganders when its lines are up and running, but as gas prices have plunged below $2 per gallon in some areas over the past month, its fuel-efficient products – the Focus and C-Max – have seen their sales plummet, as well. In December, the Focus' year-over-year sales were down 4.4 percent, while the C-Max dipped 3.3 percent, Ford told The News. Lagging sales for the two compacts aren't a new thing, though. Focus sales in all of 2014 were down 6.4 percent, while the C-Max struggled with a 21.6-percent drop last year. According to The News, Ford made the decision to idle the factory before being approached by the White House. Considering that, we wonder what the team at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue was thinking when it selected the Ford facility, and what impact the location will have on the president's message.

Ford cleans up painting process with cameras

Thu, 22 Aug 2013

Knowing how the bacon gets made rarely entices us and, in the same vein, the same usually goes for knowing about how new cars get painted. But in both instances, however, quality - or a lack thereof - is instantly obvious. In terms of the latter, Ford is showing off its new paint quality process with 3D Dirt Detection Technology to find imperfections in vehicle paint more easily and more quickly.
This process - being performed on the F-150 SVT Raptor above - uses 16 computer-controlled cameras to create a three-dimensional model (inset) of the vehicle to detect flaws in the paint including dirt particles, which can then be buffed out manually. Ford says this new technology cuts down on time spent looking for paint flaws and gives workers more time to correct those that are discovered.
Currently, Ford only uses its 3D Dirt Detection Technology system at three factories (the Dearborn, MI facility, along with those in Louisville, Kentucky and Valencia, Spain), but it will soon spread to five more plants in North America. Ford has released a video and press release for this innovative and unexpectedly interesting process, both of which are posted below.

Chevy Camaro is a good sport, wishes Ford Mustang Happy 50th

Tue, 15 Apr 2014

It was 1966 when Chevrolet launched its challenger to the wildly successful Ford Mustang, the Camaro. While the competition between the two brands was already healthy, the arrival of the Camaro set off one of the most intense, model-to-model rivalries in the industry.
That competitive spirit hasn't stopped Chevy and the Camaro from wishing Ford's iconic muscle car a Happy 50th Birthday as the Ford's April 17 anniversary rolls around. These two cars have been linked over the years, and while the rivalry took a break for a few years in the 2000s, today's competition between the Camaro and Mustang is as fierce as it's ever been.
You might recall that this friendliness when it comes to major milestones isn't too rare. Ford put on quite a display for General Motors' hundredth anniversary back in 2008. As the Camaro's fiftieth birthday approaches in 2016, we wouldn't be surprised to see the Mustang sending its best wishes to its Bowtie rival.
