This dump truck was a D.O.T. vehicle, so it was very well maintained mechanically. It has the dependable 7.3L powerstroke diesel with only 104,000 miles, 5speed manual transmission, and it runs and drives great. It was just inspected and is good until 9/2014. It has 2 fuel tanks. A brand new metal side tank, and a plastic rear tank. It is very basic as far as options. It is not equipped with A/C or cruise control, and has just an am/fm radio. Heat works great. It has heated side view mirrors and self leveling beacon lights on top. It also has a engine coolant block heater. It also has a 7 pin trailer plug and receiver.
This auction does include the Boss 8'2" Power V plow. As you can see it was barely used. I checked with a local Boss dealer and they are going for $4900 new with all necessary component and wiring, but doesn't include installation. It also comes with the Monroe stainless steel salt spreader. It is also in very good condition. The auger is not stainless, so it has a fair amount of rust scaling, but it made of very thick heavy metal and has plenty of life on it yet. I also called the manufacturer in Wisconsin and these are going for $4000 new, not including installation. The dump and spreader are fully hydraulic with a hydraulic pump run by the accessory drive belt on engine, which is engaged by a switch in the cab
Everything works as it should. Engine, clutch, transmission, and drive train all work great. The only mechanical issue is the speedometer starts to bounce around +/- 5 mph, once it gets over 40 mph.
Physically, the pictures should give a good idea of the condition. Overall it is in very good condition for an older work truck. The dump bed is in remarkable condition. Unless you just started looking, dump beds in this condition are hard to find. Most rust is just surface rust. It gets heavier near the back where the spreader is. There are 4 pictures showing the only areas that are more than surface rust. 1 - There was a small spot rusted through on the driver's side floor, which was filled in with body filler for inspection. 2 - There is a hole through on the lower passenger side door. 3 - There is a small hole in the rear cross member in front of the rear fuel tank. 4- There is some rot on each side of the rearmost crossmember behind the rear fuel tank. The bottom lip of the front bumper also has some rot on it. The interior is in good condition. The little bit of rust is from an interior leak that was not repaired right away. It does not leak now.
I may have gone overboard on pictures and description, but I want anyone interested to bid with confidence. I can assure you there will be no surprises, and you will not be disappointed when picked up if purchased. If you have been looking for a 1 ton dump truck you will know that manual transmissions seem hard to come by, especially a 4x4 with the 7.3L diesel. So if you have just started looking and these are things important to you, don't sit back and watch, because you won't find this set up again soon.
Item is being sold as and is available for pickup only. No shipping! Since for some reason paypal is not available for auto sales, cash or cashiers check would be accepted. Although I require we at least verify, if not deposit the payment at my at my local bank after you are pleased with final inspection, but before the title is transferred.
If this does not go as a package I will most likely keep the truck and sell the plow and salt spreader separately. Get me your contact information before the end of the auction if you might be interested in those separately. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or if you would like more pictures. Thanks for looking and happy bidding!

2015 Ford Edge holds line on pricing, starts at $28,100*
Tue, 04 Nov 2014The Ford Edge gets an updated platform, bolder styling and a standard 2.0-liter turbocharged EcoBoost engine pumping out 245 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque for the 2015 model year. You might expect that all those new features would result in a big price bump, but you'd be wrong. Ford is keeping costs identical to the 2014 model with a starting MSRP of $28,100 (*plus an $895 destination charge), according to Edmunds. Ford spokesperson William Mattiace confirmed the numbers to Autoblog.
That's a pretty good deal, but the real ticket here might be the model's Sport trim. Buyers get a 2.7-liter, twin-turbocharged V6 EcoBoost engine with over 300 horsepower and standard adaptive steering for $28,600 plus destination. That's just $500 more than the base model.
Pricing for the Titanium trim has not yet been announced, but it'll be a short wait to find out. Mattiace tells Autoblog that full pricing and the configuration for the model will launch on November 5. He has also confirmed that the 2015 Edge will begin hitting dealers in the first quarter of 2015.
Ford offering factory-spec EcoBoost reflashes that don't void warranty*
Sat, Dec 27 2014Buy a supercharger or cold-air kit from Ford Racing and a Performance Calibration handset comes with it to reset the ECU for the upgrade. Now Ford Racing is offering the ProCal handset a la carte for $595, allowing you to reflash the ECU on your EcoBoost-equipped ride to extract more of its inherent capabilities without any additional upgrades. It gives you control of variables such as throttle response, idle speed and turbo wastegate control, among others. As for that warranty asterisk, the press release says enthusiasts can up the power "while maintaining the Ford-backed limited warranty." However Ford Motor Co. and Ford Racing are separate entities, and, best we can tell, when you reflash the ECU, your Ford warranty gets supplanted by the Ford Racing warranty. Say you bought a 2014 Ford, that means your five-year, 60,000-mile warranty becomes Ford Racing's three-year, 36,000-mile warranty, if we're reading the fine print correctly. If you have an older car and have driven more than 36,000 miles, then your warranty options are kaput, at least as far as a Ford in-house option. If have warranty concerns, you might also want to consider having a dealer perform the reflash, or at least ask about it. Once you've got past the small print, what about the numbers? At the moment Ford Racing offers tunes for the 2.0-liter EcoBoost in the Focus ST and the 1.6-liter EcoBoost in the Fiesta ST, and we're told there's a 90-pound-foot boost in torque at the crank after you've pressed the right buttons. Anecdotal evidence from a commenter at Road & Track says he went from 252 horsepower at the flywheel to 254 hp at the wheels, and 272 lb-ft at the flywheel to 354 lb-ft at the wheels, but we can't be sure that his adjustments were within Ford Racing specs. Your mileage, naturally, may vary. What about custom numbers for the 2.3-liter EcoBoost in the 2015 Ford Mustang? They aren't ready yet, but we're told we'll get something by the end of next year.

KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners
Sat, 30 Mar 2013The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.
