EBay does not show a listing for F-550 that is why this is under F-450, but it is F-550.
2005, 4x4, 6.0 Power Stroke diesel with 12' flatbed. It is from the South and has never seen an Ohio Winter. It is absolutely spotless with no rust of any kind anywhere. The truck has 198k miles on it, the engine has 133k miles. 
The truck runs, drives, and shifts perfectly and needs nothing. The 4 wheel drive, hubs, t-case everything works perfectly. Truck has never had a plow on it.

Engine work: Approx 8k miles ago the heads were machined flat, new Ford head gaskets installed, ARP head studs, new oil cooler, EGR delete, dummy plugs, stand pipes, IPR o-rings, STC fitting, injector o-rings, coolant filter added with new CAT spec coolant, and new T-stat. I'm probably forgetting a thing or 2. It was gone through and all typical fixes done to make this bulletproof and a very reliable work truck.
The turbo has approx 80k miles on it.
The injectors were replaced with Allaint Power remans 8k miles ago, too.
The FICM is a Swamp's 58v rebuilt unit 8k miles ago, too, and has the 80 hp PHP tune.

The flatbed stake body is 12' long, has removable sides, and has tool boxes on both sides, all in excellent condition. The truck is 84" cab to axle with 4:88 gears. Tires are decent - they are not perfect and are not bald. They can be used to get you going for sure.

The interior is in excellent shape, which is very unusual for an older work truck with 200k miles. The seat was totally trashed when I got it and I found a very reasonably priced tan seat for it. You can throw a seat cover on it if you want, I didn't so you can see it's a near new seat in great condition. Who cares what color it is, it's in a work truck!

The truck is for sale locally here in North East Ohio, so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Contact me via email, phone or text with questions or to come see and drive. You will not be disappointed whatsoever with this super clean, bulletproof 6.0 Powerstroke diesel truck.

2015 Ford F-150 begins rolling off line at second factory

Sun, Mar 15 2015

Ford needs more F-150s. Yeah, we just told you that a few days ago. The Blue Oval is reporting that its trucks are spending a mere 18 days on dealer lots, following a January that was the truck's best month in over a decade. Considering both of those facts, the timing is perfect for Ford to ramp up production of its all-aluminum truck by bringing its Kansas City, MO factory online. KC Assembly has been building F-150s for decades, and completed a $1.1-billion expansion to accommodate the all-aluminum 2015 truck (as well as for work on the Transit van). Similar to what was done at Ford's Dearborn, MI factory, the Blue Oval spent 13 weeks upgrading the plant's body shop, paint shop and a road-test course. Over 900 jobs were added as part of the update. Combined with the equally upgraded plant in metro Detroit, Ford can build 700,000 trucks per year. "The all-new F-150 has surpassed our expectations – setting new standards for fullsize truck capability, technology and efficiency," Joe Hinrichs, Ford's Americas president said in a statement. "With production starting at Kansas City Assembly, we are better poised to start meeting growing customer demand for our pickup." Scroll down for the official press blast from the Blue Oval.

This means Ford has expanded production of the first mass-produced light-duty pickup truck with a high-strength, military-grade, aluminum-alloy body.

Ford announces first non-pursuit-rated police car ever

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

Ford announced its first non-pursuit-rated Police Interceptor ever, based on the Taurus, which employs the smaller 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine in place of similar pursuit-rated Police Interceptors powered by naturally aspirated 3.5-liter and 3.7-liter V6s and the top-spec 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6. Officially called the Special Service Police sedan, the car was commissioned at the request of law-enforcement agencies that desire a more fuel-efficient vehicle for detectives, administrators and campus police, who don't necessarily need pursuit-rated vehicles.
The 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine produces 240 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque, but more importantly, it allows the SSP sedan to achieve somewhere in the neighborhood of 22 miles per gallon city and 32 mpg highway, which are the civilian 2.0-liter Taurus' official EPA ratings. Ford estimates that the SSP sedan will get 20 mpg city, 30 mpg highway and 23 mpg combined, with the help of Active Grille Shutters that open to allow more cooling air through to the radiator, or close to optimize aerodynamics and fuel economy. Those numbers compare favorably to the discontinued Crown Victoria-based Interceptor's 14 mpg city and 21 mpg highway and the newer Taurus-based cars equipped with V6s, the most fuel efficient of which gets 18 mpg city and 26 mpg highway.
If it was driven 90,000 miles over the course of three years, a 2.0-liter SSP sedan would save law enforcement agencies $5,042.92 versus the Crown Vic, Ford estimates. The EPA is expected to post official fuel-economy numbers for the SSP sedan in December. Until then, read the press release below for more information.
