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.

Leno chooses his top 10 Mustangs
Sat, 14 Jun 2014He may be a few months late to the party, but in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Ford Mustang, Jay Leno has delivered a short video in which he runs down which of the Blue Oval's pony cars from the past 50 years are his favorites.
The list is pretty darn similar to our own, with some of the big names from the Mustang's half century making an appearance, while there are three or four cars here that we think you'll be pretty surprised by.
Take a look below for this short video from Jay Leno's Garage.
A closer look at the 2015 Ford F-150
Thu, 16 Jan 2014Despite having to share Ford's Detroit Auto Show stand with the hot new 2015 Mustang, the brand-new F-150 was arguably an even more important debut. Why? Ford moved some 700,000 examples of its F-Series truck in 2012, making it not only the best-selling pickup truck, but the top-selling vehicle in the US, by a long-shot.
The 2015 F-150 raises the bar for pickup trucks in a big way, with big-time use of aluminum. Because of this, roughly 700 pounds have been removed from the truck's overall weight, making it even more efficient than before, while still offering all of the capability that pickup owners expect. And with a host of engines under the hood, including a new 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6, the 2015 F-150 will surely offer something for everyone.
During the Detroit Auto Show, west coast editor Michael Harley took a closer look at the new F-150, talking to some of the truck's engineers. Have a look at the full video, below.
NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
