 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!

How Ford hid the 2015 Mustang from spy photographers

Fri, 20 Dec 2013

Now that we've finally seen the 2015 Ford Mustang, it's fun to go back and look at the spy shots we spent months pouring over, trying to dissect what was under all the camouflage. For the most part, Ford did a good job of concealing the car from spy photographers, and it released a video showing how much work went into doing so.
As crude as the Mustang's camo looked, all of the hard plastic, foam, vinyl and ratchet straps were actually created and put in place by a specific design team. The whole idea was to hide the car's identity, but it certainly ended up acting as a magnet for attention, too. According to Ford's press release, it took less than an hour for spy shots to appear online after the car was taken on public roads for the very first time - this is likely in reference to our first official spy shots of the Mustang from June, shown in the gallery below.
Scroll down for a press release and video, which shows footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang testing with minimal camouflage. This is probably the same track session where we got our first look at the Mustang's face back in August.

NHTSA closes Ford F-Series Super Duty steering probe without recall

Wed, 05 Feb 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's investigation into 2008 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty pickups, which was originally opened last year, has now ended without a recall. NHTSA was looking into steering failures on some 336,000 trucks.
The issue rested with the steering gear - NHTSA received five complaints of failures - which was redesigned in 2005. According to the report on the matter, investigators "found evidence of broken sector shaft gear teeth and piston damage consistent with incidents of single event overload."
NHTSA investigators, however, "found no evidence of fatigue or material property defects in any of the fractures. Analysis of complaint rates by vehicle build month showed no patterns indicating potential manufacturing quality issues and no difference before and after Ford introduced design changes to the input shaft and sector shaft seals in July 2007 to address potential leak concerns," according to the report, obtained by The Detroit News.

Ford pits Cobra Jet versus GRC Fiesta ST, worlds collide

Thu, 31 Oct 2013

Racing takes on many forms in the automotive world. There are sanctioned events that are as varied and diverse as NASCAR, Formula One, Global Rallycross and drag racing, and to be good enough to win competitively in one discipline, you need to have a specialized vehicle. Or do you?
Ford decided to find out what would happen when its Global Rallycross Fiesta ST, driven by Tanner Foust, lined up against its Mustang Cobra Jet drag racer, driven by Roy Hill. In one lane, Tanner has just 2.0 liters of displacement to work with, while Roy has more than double that, at 5.0 liters. Evening the playing field a bit, Tanner has a massive turbocharger and all-wheel drive; Roy has to filter all his supercharged power through the rear wheels only.
So, who wins? We suggest you see for yourself in the press release and video below. And we're holding out hope that Tanner's challenge at the end results in another video from Ford Racing...
