Up for sale is a fully refurbished, F550 Service truck that I have spent an entire year working on. First let me begin that both the truck and the Maintainer service body were never exposed to any salt, so they are both completely rust free. The truck was a flat bed in Louisiana so it has had a very easy life, the body is completely rust free. All brake lines, fuel lines, fuel tank, fenders are perfect. It truely looks like a new truck underneath. The service body was used on sight in a quarry so it never saw a salty road. I spent a year looking for the right truck for this body. I built this truck to last me 10 years as I run a small independant mechanic shop. Well 2 months ago I recieved a job offer to work for a large Pipeline company, as faith would have it I could not pass it up. So now someone else is going to get a beatiful truck.
Begining with the truck, it is a low mileage 165k, f550, 6-speed, cruise, AC, tilt, Xl interior truck. The truck was fully stripped down to bare metal and primerd with Dupont DP epoxy primer, then the truck was painted with PPG White base coat and clear coat. The truck recieved all new light bulbs, new decals, New windshield, I fully serviced the truck, including new belt, fuel filter, engine oil and filter, new alternator, new batteries, new PTO, and new IPC sensor and pigtail. There are many more various parts which were changed, but after a year it becomes hard to remember them all! The truck has excellant tires, drives well shifts well(4th gear does sometimes grind on fast downshifts typical of ZF6's). Also the truck has lots of power, I looked for a 1999 because it had the best 7.3 diesel, with the true forged rods! Again the truck is rust free, Also I have driven the truck nearly 1800 miles as I bought it in texas, drove it across the pan handle flat towing my explorer, and then drove it from Florida to Illinois, with a 6000lb load on the flatbed. The truck does not use any oil, and does not leak puddles on the ground. This truck was made when the F550 was at the top of its game, this is not a Junk 6.0, or 6.4 diesel, NO EMISSIONS to worry about on this engine!
Now to the Service body. The service body is a Maintainer 11ft body. With a fully Hydraulic 2 stage 6000lb crane, Also the truck has a Hydraulic 25cfm air compressor, and a NEW Lincoln ranger 225 welder, the welder has zero hours! The service body was fully stripped, with the doors being soda blasted, painted with DP epoxy primer, then painted with Dupont Delstar enamel paint. I DID NOT paint the crane on this truck, as the paint was not bad, and to properly paint a crane it should be disassembled. Inside the Service box are 3 tool boxes, a parts bin rack, and a large hose reel. Maintainer is the Cadillac of service bodies, they are the best hands down. NOTHING compares to a Maintainer, period.
Im sure there will be a lot of questions, and I will take any pictures which are requested. I spent a ton of time building this truck, and spent a ton of time to perfect this service truck. Any one who wishes to see this truck is welcome to see it, also the truck is for sale outside of ebay so I can cancell the auction at any time, Also to replace this truck right now would cost over 115k!

NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue
Tue, 07 Oct 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening an investigation into the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ, the 2012 MKZ Hybrid and 2011 Mercury Milan because the agency has hundreds of complaints of electric power steering failure in these models.
According to NHTSA's data, it has received 508 complaints of the power steering allegedly suddenly malfunctioning and resulting in increased effort to turn the wheel. In four incidents, these failures resulted in loss of control and crashes. According to the reports, in some cases a power steering warning message came on as the fault occurred, and other times the system restored itself by turning off and then restarting the vehicle. NHTSA said it has also received further field report data from Ford, but that information hasn't been publicly released yet.
For the moment, there isn't a recall for this failure on these models. NHTSA is just investigating them to "assess the scope, frequency and safety consequences of the alleged defect," and the agency says an estimated 938,000 vehicles could potentially be affected.
Hear the 2015 Mustang GT V8 roar for the first time
Wed, 26 Jun 2013Our combined knowledge of the 2015 Ford Mustang continues to deepen, as spy shooters have begun to compile video and audio of the upcoming sixth-generation car.
Case in point is this latest series of video clips, which not only gives us a great vantage point of the Mustang in motion, but also allows us to hear the Ford V8 engine and exhaust. After perusing the aural delights of this short video, which, admittedly, doesn't catch the Mustang GT at full song, we can at least say that the throaty exhaust isn't disappointing.
Chances are good that the 2015 Mustang GT will debut with some version of the current (and excellent) Coyote 5.0-liter V8 engine, though we're unclear as to whether or not the motor has been massaged for its next-gen debut, or what may have been done to exhaust plumbing. At this point, we're just happy to hear the pony run. Scroll below to hear for yourself.
Ford Mondeo with 1.5-liter EcoBoost debuts in China
Sat, 20 Apr 2013Does the car above, posing fancifully in white, look familiar? Well, it should. Although it wears Mondeo badges in the form you see above for the Chinese market - as it does in Europe - the car is basically the same thing sold in the US as the Ford Fusion. Of course, it's what's under that shapely skin that counts.
Ford has chosen the Shanghai Motor Show as the venue with which to unveil its 1.5-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine. We'd heard about the engine before, but now we have a few performance estimates to share: 133 kW of power (about 178 horsepower) and 240 Nm of torque (about 177 pound-feet).
Those numbers pretty much confirm previous rumors indicating about 177 in each category, and it's right on par with what Ford's own 1.6-liter EcoBoost produces. Ford is claiming best-in-class fuel economy as well, but no specific figures have yet been provided. In any case, we'll surely have all the data soon enough, as the 1.5-liter mill is destined for the US Fusion in 2014.
