7.3 Liter F350 Ford 2wd Long Bed With Lot's Of Heart Left on 2040-cars
Townsend, Georgia, United States
This has been the best truck I have owned. Very dependable transportation. Less than 500 miles on new tires. Replaced the ball joints and drag link in 2011. Fresh motor craft batteries warranted through Ford. New stalk on column for wipers and turn signal. New gearshift stalk on column for Overdrive. I took this truck to the Bozard Ford dealership before I purchased it and was told there was full power available and recommended that the Drag link and ball joints be replaced and I did that maintenance just after I purchased it at 260,000 miles. I used the truck to pull my BMW show car every summer which was no real work for this super truck. I raised the front end up 2" to get the stance level across the running boards. Goes down the road straight. I have really treated this truck with respect and for its age, I would get in it now and drive to Walla Walla Washington then to Bangor Maine and back. Someone will get a great truck which is willing to pull anything. Does not smoke unless you floor it on the on the "on-ramps" which is typical. Does not leak anything. The Int'l 7.3's are notorious for 750,000 miles! Transmission shifts perfectly.The bed was replaced in 2012 with a 2012 model because the right rear tire spun the tread off at 70 miles an hour and peeled the whole truck side off the bed. The bed was brand new purchased from a utility truck builder that sells brand new "take-off" beds on ebay. Uses no oil between oil changes and when you pull the dipstick, you see clean clear oil, not black ink which is common on some turbo-charged diesels. There is nothing that I am aware of that needs attention other than the wiper motor. I replaced it a year ago with a remanufactured unit but should have used an OEM new unit and it has stopped working again. (The NAPA wiper motor warranty expired two weeks ago) The wiper motor can be replaced in 30 minutes. I no longer need a truck this size and am purchasing a Ford Ranger. Truck is offered for sale locally, I reserve the right to end the auction early if sold locally.THIS IS A NO-RESERVE AUCTION, HIGH BIDDER GETS THIS REALLY NICE LOOKING, DEPENDABLE TRUCK! Good Luck!! I can be reached @ 912-321-8012 between 8:00 AM-8:00 PM Eastern.

Ford bumped by Amazon in best-perceived brand list
Mon, 20 Jan 2014Back in July, a mid-year study from YouGov found Ford to have higher brand perception than any other company in the US. While Ford failed to top the year-end study, it still has plenty to brag about. The final BrandIndex report shows that online retail giant Amazon edged out Ford for the top ranking, while Subway, the History Channel and Lowe's rounded out the top five spots.
For Ford, it's still an improvement from sixth place in the 2012 study, and, more importantly, it dominated other automakers in terms of brand perception with a clear advantage over Toyota, Honda, Chevy and Volkswagen. To determine how well - or not so well - a brand is perceived, YouGov uses a Buzz score that asks respondents whether they've "heard anything about the brand in the last two weeks, through advertising, news or word of mouth" and whether it was positive or negative. While it isn't clear how many respondents were included, YouGov does point out that Ford had a strong presence in social media, advertising and newsworthy toward the end of the year.
For more details about the study and the top companies, check out the press release posted below.
Would a Mustang-based Lincoln look like this?
Mon, 07 Jan 2013Designer Josiah LaCalla has taken a stab at what a Ford Mustang-based Lincoln model might look like with the Continental Mark X1 concept. Make no mistake, Ford's luxury arm has made it abundantly clear that it won't be pursuing any new products outside of volume models, which means a flashy halo grand tourer like the one you see here isn't in the cards. LaColla used the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG as a basis for his creation, which explains the long nose, but we certainly don't mind the idea of a rear-wheel drive Lincoln with a cabin pushed to the aft.
While we're dreaming, there's certainly nothing stopping us from imagining what's under that lengthy hood. We like the idea of the 5.8-liter supercharged V8 from the Shelby GT500 pushing the Mark X1 down the road, but how about something a little more inventive? Something like a high-revving, buttery V12 with enough torque to push the contraption well past 200 miles per hour. Dream a little dream, people.
Aussie Ford Falcon GT shows its rear end to Lamborghini Gallardo
Sun, 27 Apr 2014When Ford Australia announces, as it did recently, that it wants to celebrate the end of its Ford Performance Vehicle division with a Falcon FPV GT-F that celebrates big-bore origins of the nameplate, it's talking about the kind of car in this video.
At some point the classic Falcon GT - said to be an XY series - was invited to a test of acceleration against a Lamborghini Gallardo. At the very least, the Falcon GT had a 351 cubic-inch motor and 300 horsepower, but whatever this guy's got under the hood of his yellow sedan makes has him so confident that he doesn't even move his elbow from its resting place on the door.
You'll find a reminder of Ford Australia's heyday, a raucous exhaust note and some NSFW language in the short video below.
