I have for sale my 2003 Ford F-350 XLT 7.3L Powerstroke 4X4 Crew Cab Short Bed pick up. She has 141,275 miles on her and runs pretty strong.  As you can see from the pictures it has been extensively, but tastefully, modified. For the suspension, we have a Full Traction coilover conversion with Fox coilovers up front and a Kelderman 4-link airbag conversion in the rear, giving a lift of 8" to clear the 37"x12.50" BFGoodrich All-terrain tires. The tires are mounted on 17"x 10" Axis Regulator wheels powder coated black. This is a one of a kind suspension that gives the nicest ride that you can get in a lifted solid axle truck like this. The ride height is adjustable via air for the rear and the front coilovers can be adjusted with a spanner wrench.


Under the hood, we have about every bolt-on that you can imagine and then some; a Garrett GTP38R Ball bearing turbo, 1.15 non-wastegate turbine housing, Spearco intercooler, Afe Bladderunner intake manifold, AFe stage II PG7 intake and a 4" MPRB straight pipe exhaust painted black. What you can't immediately see under the hood is the bullet-proof BTS transmission and Swamps 175/146 single shot injectors. While these injectors allow for a little more punch, they are also designed to be very fuel efficient. I have never dynoed it, but I estimate this truck should be at about 375-400 hp. I have taken it down the 1/4 mile though and my best time was 15.0 @ 87mph; not bad for a 9000+ lb truck with stock gearing on 37" tires!

Also included with the truck is a complete air system that I had not gotten around to installing on to the truck. I have been manually adjusting the airbags in the meantime. The components included are a Vair air compressor, air tank, Accuair two-way air control system and a Hornblasters 4-tone train horn kit. I also will include an F650 dash panel for a switch panel to control all the air systems. I have many other aftermarket items as well, that make more sense to sell off separately, but I'll give you first crack at them if you are serious about the truck.

I'm selling this truck because I have taken on more projects than I can deal with and I just don't really drive it as much anymore. I don't really need a big diesel truck since I no longer have anything to tow. I want this truck to go to a good home and to someone who will carry on my project of creating the ultimate truck.

I have invested close to $30k in aftermarket stuff over the 7 years I have owned her. I feel that I have made some good decisions on this build, so I think I should be able to recoup some of the value that I have invested in it. If you know your Powerstroke trucks, you know this is a great price for an awesome truck with a ton of extras.

There is one area of damage that I should mention, which is also shown in the pictures. I had tread separate from a tire from my last set of wheels and it smacked the lower rear part of the passenger rear wheel well. It kind of folded the part of the metal up under the bed. It's not really that noticeable and I personally didn't mind it enough to do anything about it. I always though it I'd fix it one day though...

Also, it has been involved in one minor accident where the only damage to the truck was a scuff on the front bumper. I fixed it by painting it to match the body color of the truck. Problem solved.

Anyways, if you are interested in my truck or have any questions, please contact me in whichever way you feel most comfortable with. Thanks for looking!

American automakers fall in latest Fortune 500 rankings

Fri, 10 May 2013

Not that it means anything beyond bragging rights, but if you're fixated on the positions of domestic automakers on the annual Fortune 500 list, both General Motors and Ford are still on it but they've slipped a couple of notches. The list ranks American companies and they're ordered solely by revenue. GM, fifth last year, came in seventh, while Ford fell from ninth to tenth even though both companies saw small gains in annual revenue.
GM's $152.3 billion in revenue was less than a third of that of the first company on the list: Wal-Mart, which regained the title from Exxon Mobil. Berkshire Hathaway and Apple are the firms that moved GM down. Ford, displaced by energy company Valero, had $134.3 billion in revenue.
On a side note, profitability isn't a factor, but both GM and Ford were down in this year's list compared to last year's: GM declined from $9.2 billion to $6.2 billion, Ford fell from $20.2 billion to $5.6 billion. If profits were included, Exxon Mobil would probably still be king: although the energy company made almost $20 billion less in revenue than Wal-Mart's $469.2 billion, it posted $44.9 billion in profit compared to Wal-Mart's $17 billion.

Has the auto industry hit peak hybrid?

Thu, 12 Jun 2014

Hybrids are known for their great fuel economy and low emissions, but it looks like given current market conditions, only about three percent of new car consumers are willing to pay the premium for them. A new study from IHS/Polk finds that the hybrid market share among overall US auto sales are falling, despite more models with the technology on sale than ever before.
The study examined new car registrations in March from 2009 through 2014. In that time, the auto industry grew from 24 to 47 hybrid models available to consumers, but market share for the powertrain remained almost stagnant in that time. As of 2009, hybrids held 2.4 percent of the market; it fell slightly to 2.3 percent in 2010 and grew to 3.3 percent in 2013. However, 2014 showed a drop back to 3 percent. Overall hybrid sales have been growing since 2010, but they just aren't keeping up with the total auto market.
According to IHS/Polk, this isn't what you would expect to see. Usually, each new model in the market brings along with it a boost in sales. The growth in hybrid models 2009 to 2014 should have shown a larger increase in share for the segment.

Saleen SA-30 Mustang, Camaro and Challenger help celebrate the big 3-0

Fri, 22 Nov 2013

After 30 years of tuning performance cars and building racecars, Saleen is celebrating its racing heritage with a limited-production car line called SA-30. Based on the Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro and Dodge Challenger, Saleen will only build 10 of each SA-30 model at a base price of $95,000.
For that money, buyers will get upgraded suspension, brakes and engines, and while the power figures have not been released for the SA-30 620 Camaro and SA-30570 Challenger models, the SA-30 302 Mustang will be the top performer with 625 horsepower. Each car will be painted up in a custom pearl white hue with black and yellow accents, and get white wheels shrouding yellow powder-coated brake calipers. Inside, the SA-30 offerings will all get a proper Saleen interior with black leather and white Alcantara on the seats, along with the expected smattering of SA-30 badges.
On all three SA-30 models, customers will have various options available to further customize their cars, including a rear-seat delete option that transforms each car's cabin into a race-inspired interior with a chassis-strengthening rear cross brace. Perhaps the coolest feature of all, though, is the Saleen Frost-Touch Glass that is an option on the SA-30 302 Mustang. Similar to the Mercedes Sky Control roof first introduced on the Mercedes SLK, the Saleen Frost-Touch Glass allows the Mustang's optional glass roof and rear window to be switched from transparent to opaque at the push of a button.
