Thanks for looking! Up for sale is my 2001 FORD F-350 XLT WITH THE 7.3L POWERSTROKE DIESEL ENGINE. I am the original owner and the truck has served me very well over the past 13 years! The truck has ONLY 158500 MILES, has always been a NON SMOKING vehicle, has NEVER PLOWED, and has ONLY OCCASIONALLY TOWED a small 4000 lb. boat trailer. The exterior of the truck is in very good condition with minimal rust at the bottom of the cab (see pictures) and underneath where the running boards attach. There are only a few minor dings in the body. The entire box bed I had replaced and painted two years ago and is perfect! The chrome bumpers are original and in excellent shape. The interior seats have been covered since new and are literally like new underneath. The cup holder trim on the dash snapped off years ago but the holder is still functional. The power windows all work and the power locks work from the inside of the truck but only the driver's side front and rear work from remote. I do have both keys and remotes. The front windshield has a chip near the rearview mirror, but I will have that replaced before the successful bidder takes the truck. The front tires are decent but the rears will need replacing within 5000 miles. The ball joints were replaced at 130000 miles and the front end is tight and the truck is a pleasure to drive. Batteries were replaced 1 1/2 years ago and the alternator was replaced last year. 4 wheel drive works well but the hubs need to be locked and unlocked manually.

Overall a great truck I hate to see go, but I have to make room for the new 2014 I drove home last week! I have a reasonable reserve on the truck and please note that the vehicle is available for sale locally as well. Any local sale will take precedent over this listing.

Thanks again, and please contact me with any questions you may have.

2014 Ford Mustang GT

Fri, 17 May 2013

I was more than a year removed from my last experience with the Mustang GT and its delicious 5.0 V8 when this new 2014 example rolled up to my driveway recently. Good weather and a planned road trip across the state meant that I would get plenty of seat time in this conservatively specified example, too. In total, I logged about 400 miles in a week of driving - not a lot for some of you super commuters out there, but quite a lot for this work-from-home journalist.
The basic formula of the 5.0 has stayed the same for 2014. The 2013 model year saw a number of updates to keep the Mustang fresh until it's replaced with an all-new generation for 2015. So, for its bon voyage tour, the fifth-generation Pony Car has seen only a few modifications: a couple of new paint colors (Oxford White and Ruby Read Metallic), trim and wheel revisions and, sadly, the deletion of the Boss 302 from the Ford lineup. However, while the limited-edition Boss is likely to reappear sometime after the gen-six Mustang makes its debut in 2015, the GT Track Package cars like the one I tested provide at least a partial solution for those looking for hot laps.
Driving Notes

Ford issues six recalls covering 101,000 vehicles for multiple issues

Tue, 08 Jul 2014

Ford is announcing six separate recalls for a variety of issues affecting a dozen models and a total of 100,610 vehicles in North America. However, according to Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker, "None of them have caused accidents or injuries." Half of them cover fewer than 1,000 cars.
The largest recall covers 92,022 North American examples (about 83,250 in the US) of some models of the Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS, Ford Interceptor, Flex and Lincoln MKT from the 2013 and 2014 model years; the 2012-2014 Edge and the 2014 Lincoln MKX. All of them have a potential issue with the halfshaft on the right side that might not be fully seated and could move outward over time. If it shifts too far, the models may no longer be able to drive, and the condition could also allow the vehicles to roll away, even when in Park. Dealers will inspect the shaft to make sure it's seated and will replace the part if necessary.
The next-largest recall covers 5,264 North American examples (4,867 in the US) of the Ford F59 Commercial Stripped Chassis from the 2011-2014 model years. It's possible that an electrical junction box can corrode in areas with salty roads and short circuit. The problem could potentially cause a fire. Dealers will replace the box with an improved design.
