Offered For Sale at No Reserve by TED DAVIS AUTO SALES.  (Ted & Seth Davis)

We specialize in clean late model Repairables and Super Duty Ford Trucks. This one had a Repairable Salvage title and was fixed by us. 

It has been inspected by our DMV and now has a West Virginia Reconstructed Title which can be registered like any vehicle with a regular title. 

Certain banks or credit unions will not finance these type titles so please check on that before bidding if you need financing.

We require a $500 deposit by Paypal within 48 Hours and paid in full within 10 days.

NOTE: Please read the full description below on this amazing truck. 

Here we have a 2002 FORD F-450 FLATBED 4X4 with only 79,000 actual miles. The best part is the truck has the 7.3 Liter Power Stroke diesel. This is by far the best engine Ford offered in their trucks.  They have been well proven over the years to go 500,000 miles or more if maintained like this truck was. The other nice thing is most mechanic shops can repair them when something does go wrong unlike the newer diesels with emission controls on them. 

The F-450 is another plus on this truck. They are much heavier built than an F-250 or F-350 with thicker frames, heavy duty suspension, etc. and if you need big brakes and 14 Ply tires for pulling heavier trailers these are superior to any pickup truck or dually. In a lot of states they require this truck for pulling a tandem axle trailer because of the heavier GVW rating it has.

As you can see the truck is in excellent condition for the year with only a few small dings and scratches that we showed in the pictures. 

The truck had right side damage to an enclosed utility box that was on it since new. The Heating and Air Condition company that owned the truck gave us a great history on it when we called them so we proceeded to buy it from the insurance company and repair the truck for our retail lot. 

The enclosed utility body sustained most of the damage so we removed it and replaced it with a brand new Aluma Brand flatbed that has never been used. These are really nice beds. They will never rust and have all LED lights on them. They also have stake pockets for racks and an aluminum head board. 

There was also some light damage on the right cab corner and door so we replaced the door with another white door and repaired the cab corner.

The truck had no frame damage whatsoever and the power train was not touched since it was hit on the right front part of the utility bed and barely caught the cab corner. This came from a light T-bone type hit from someone running a Stop Sign at a low speed. Because the enclosed bed cost so much to replace the other driver's insurance company chose to total the truck so it was issued a Repairable Salvage title.

The truck turned out fantastic and you could never tell it was ever hit since most of the damage was removed with the bed. The work we done was very minor with the only repaired area that required any filler being down low on the right side cab corner. The used white door we had was near perfect and required no repairs at all. 

Once again this truck had very light damage and it still run and drove like a new one before any repairs were made. It starts like a 79K truck should with great battery power and Glow plugs working properly. It also shifts great with good shift pressure unlike a high mileage automatic would. The A/C blows ice cold and everything works 100% on it. It is going to make someone a great truck that will do the job for many years to come and will cost much less than 1/2 of the $60K new prices these days.

The pictures should show it well and we always describe exactly what we know but if you have any questions please give us a call at 304-567-2999 or e-mail us on the listing. Also you are more than welcome to come in person and test drive it. 

NOTE: The mileage may vary with a local test drive from our lot and we also reserve the right to sale the truck and end the auction early if someone local comes in. Otherwise it will run the full seven days and be sold to the highest bidder.

Thanks for looking at our listing and Good Luck bidding. Sincerely, Ted & Seth Davis

Ford confirms 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine for 2014 Fusion

Thu, 11 Apr 2013

Earlier this week, reports were swirling 'round the internet about the 2014 Ford Fusion getting a new 1.5-liter three-cylinder EcoBoost engine. That was... half correct. Ford today confirmed that the 2014 Fusion is, in fact, getting a new 1.5-liter EcoBoost mill, but it has four cylinders, not three.
The new 1.5-liter engine will be the fifth EcoBoost powerplant from Ford Motor Company. Initially to be built at the automaker's Craiova, Romania plant, it will also be offered in the Fusion's twin, the Mondeo, in other markets. This engine will debut at the Shanghai Motor Show next month, and the 1.5-liter is of particular importance in the Chinese market - there is significant tax relief in the People's Republic for vehicles powered by engines with a capacity of 1.5 liters or less.
At a media briefing Thursday, Ford declined to divulge exact power or fuel economy numbers, though Joe Bakaj, vice president of powertrain engineering, told Autoblog that power output should be similar to that of the current 1.6-liter inline-four, and that overall efficiency will be "better than the 1.6." Our earlier report stated that the 1.5-liter four will produce 177 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque - losses of 1 hp and 7 lb-ft versus the 1.6-liter engine. Ford states that the 1.5-liter four will feature many of the same technologies used on the company's 1.0-liter EcoBoost inline-three, including an integrated exhaust manifold that recaptures much of the engine's heat.

Mulally confirms he's not leaving Ford for Microsoft

Tue, 07 Jan 2014

In recent months, rumors had been flying about Ford CEO Alan Mulally potentially leaving the company to take a position at Microsoft. Last we heard, Mulally was planning to stick around at Ford through at least 2014, and in an interview today, that bit was confirmed by the CEO himself.
According to the Associated Press, in a report from The Detroit News, Mulally said he will not be leaving Ford for Microsoft, and reiterated that he will remain at the Blue Oval through 2014, if not longer. Mulally has "no plans other than to serve Ford," according to the report.
Mulally did not say whether or not he had been in talks with Microsoft at any point. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has said he plans to leave the software company sometime this year.
