I've owned this truck since 2009. It runs perfectly and is very comfortable to drive.

In 2010 I added a Volo Fuel enhancement computer to the truck giving it an extra 6 miles to the gallon. This truck will give you 20-22 miles per gallon. Also, a professionally built hydrogen generator is installed, but not turned on (the fuse is taken out which supplies its power). The acrylic casing on the steel plate container for the generator is cracked from water freezing in it. The truck runs perfectly with the generator switched off. A new steel plate container will cost about $40.00. Before my casing cracked, I was getting 24-27 miles per gallon with the hydrogen generator working its magic. That is unheard of gas mileage in any truck. If you've never heard of the benefits of a hydrogen generator, please look it up. They are completely safe and will save you tons of money at the gas pump. Again, the truck has been running perfectly fine with only the Volo Fuel Enhancement Chip and no hydrogen generator for the last year. You will get at least 20 miles to the gallon with 89 octane. I only use Mobil 1 fully synthetic oil, which has been changed every 5000 miles. I had a full service at the Elizabethtown, KY Ford dealership last year where I got all new plugs, plug wires and all fluids changed. The tires are practically brand new. I purchased them in June, 2013 (they are 60,000 mile tires with just over 4,000 miles on them). I only drive this truck when I need to go to town for something. I walk to work, so the truck hardly gets any miles put on it. It is a 2004 model with just over 133,160 miles. Last year, I had Autosound of Elizabethtown install a Remote Started on the truck. It works perfectly.
 

There is no deferred maintenance on my truck.  It is in perfect running condition all the way around.  No Rust.  There are several hairline scratches and some small scuff marks around the body, but the paint is in very good condition in my opinion.  No replacement of any transfer case or differential fluids.  I just had the front Left side wheel bearing replaced Nov, 2013.  Both front brakes were replaced and the rotors were redone Nov, 2013.  Replace Front Right Wheel Bearing on 5/5/11.  Brand New MAXX-65N Battery on 8/13/13.  Remanufactured Alternator (P8499) on 8/9/13.

The EFIE computer's website is: http://voloperformance.com/  There you can read about the FS2 HHO Chip that I installed.

The HHO Kit is from: http://www.alternativempg.com/  There you can read about the HHO Kit that I installed.  I purchased the Fuel Cell, Reservoir Tank, and Installation Kit.  I purchased an amp meter and installed it myself.  I am skilled in electronics and you can inspect the installation yourself and see that it is a quality job.  In order to work, first, a new Fuel Cell will have to be purchased ($69.00 now on their website).  To run the unit, distilled water and either sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide (KOH) needs to be used.  I used only KOH which is a much better catalyst and it is clean.  I did not add alcohol to the fluid last season and the water in the fuel cell froze and cracked the acrylic.  I was getting 24 mpg with 89 test and 26 mpg with 93.

The only issue that I have with the truck is that sometimes the gear lever sticks in park and you have to shut off the truck, put it in neutral, restart it and put in gear. It works every time. It's not a transmission issue. I had the dealership look at it and they said that the wiring harness for the remote starter (which runs up the steering wheel wire harness) was pulling on the wire for the lever release mechanism. It only affects it sometimes, not all the time, and it does not impede your ability to start the truck. The interior of the truck is in very good condition, with normal seat wear. The arm rest cover is starting to peel back as you can see in my pictures. Otherwise, the interior is very nice. The truck is a gem and runs perfectly. Please call me and set up a time to come and take a test drive. The Kelly Blue Book for this car in the condition that it is in is $9600-$9900.

2022 Rivian R1T vs. 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning vs. GMC Hummer EV Pickup | How they compare on paper

Tue, Sep 28 2021

The 2022 Rivian R1T has arrived, ushering in the era of the production electric pickup truck. The Rivian reviews are in, and spoiler alert: They're pretty good. Curious how the new battery-powered truck stacks up to its forthcoming competitors? Well, you've come to the right place. Rivian beat all of Detroit's big automakers to market in the half-ton segment, but probably not by the margin the startup would have liked. Ford's answer is the F-150 Lightning, which is due to enter production early next year, coming hot on the heels of GM's first entry into the space – the GMC Hummer EV pickup – which is scheduled to come off the line late this fall. While all three are pickups, they're aimed at distinctly different buyers, as a perusal of their specifications will reveal. Let's have a look, shall we?   Disclaimer: Before we dive in on this one, we'd like to note that while we've made our best effort to verify the specs provided, the Rivian is brand-new and the others are still in the prototype phase. Some of these figures may be inaccurate or may simply change before production. This is all hypothetical until you can actually cross-shop them anyway, right? Cool. End disclaimer. Let's start with the powertrains. They're all battery-electric trucks engineered on a modular rear-wheel-drive configuration engineered to accommodate (theoretically, anyway) up to four electric drive units. Rivian actually makes the most use of this with a quad-motor setup producing 835 horsepower and 908 pound-feet of torque with its high-output initial model. GMC's three-motor Hummer has the R1T beat with its estimated 1,000-horsepower output, while Ford's (also three-motor) comes in with a far more modest 563 horses. This is an excellent illustration of our above point that these are not all engineered for the same crowd. Ford's F-150, which comes in at a lower price point, is meant to be far more mainstream, as its power output suggests.  This theme continues when we look at the dimensions. Despite the image "Hummer" may conjure, GMC's entry actually needs the shallowest parking space. The Rivian is right behind it, with the work-truck-spec Ford extending more than a foot longer than either. What the Hummer lacks in length, it makes up for in girth. It's the widest by a good 5 inches. The Rivian is only slightly pudgier than the F-150, but it's much closer at that end of the scale.

Ford trademarking 'Mach 1,' possibly for Mustang

Thu, 24 Oct 2013

A legendary name might be accompanying the redesigned, 2015 Mustang when it finally makes its world debut - Mach 1. Stumbled upon by the team at Ford Authority, the Mach 1 title was found in a trademark filing with the US Patent and Trademark Office, and would revive a name last used on the fourth-generation, 2003 Mustang.
While the the 2003 vintage was well and good, the Mach 1 is really remembered for a three-year run from 1969 to 1971 - it's best to just forget the emissions-choked 1972 to 1978 Mach 1s - when power output ranged from a modest 250 horsepower with the two-barrel, 351-cubic-inch Windsor V8 to "375 hp" (actual output was rumored to be well north of 400 horsepower) with the righteous, 429-cubic-inch Super Cobra Jet V8.
What does the title hold for the sixth-generation Mustang? It's tough to say. The fanatics at Ford Authority seem to think Mach 1 could take the place of the Shelby GT500 at the top of the Mustang hierarchy, which sounds like a valid argument. At the same time, we could see the SVT Cobra moniker returning for the flagship model, and the Mach 1 doing battle with the Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 (unless the Boss 302 were to return). Confounding things is the historical precedent - the Mach 1 was responsible for the death of the Mustang GT in 1969, so it might make sense as a volume performance model.

Ford F-150, Chevy Silverado, Toyota Tundra flunk IIHS headlight test

Tue, Oct 25 2016

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety put pickup truck headlights to the test and found that the majority of them were equipped with subpar units. The 2017 Honda Ridgeline was the only truck to earn a rating of "good." The large pickup truck test was comprised of the: 2016 to 2017 GMC Sierra, 2017 Nissan Titan, 2016 Ram 1500, 2016 to 2017 Chevrolet Silverado, 2016 to 2017 Ford F-150, and 2016 to 2017 Toyota Tundra. The Sierra's headlights earned a rating of "acceptable," the headlights found on the Titan and Ram 1500 were found to be "marginal," and the ones on the Silverado, F-150, and Tundra were rated as "poor." IIHS claims the F-150 was the most disappointing out of the large pickup trucks as both its halogen and optional LED headlights failed to provide adequate visibility during testing. The Ridgeline (which earned a "good rating"), is usually considered a midsize or small truck, though IIHS included it in the field of large pickups. The headlights on the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado, 2016 GMC Canyon, 2016 Nissan Frontier, and 2016 to 2017 Toyota Tacoma, which made up the small pickup truck group, all earned a rating of "poor." The IIHS claimed the Colorado had the worst headlights of any truck that was tested, as the base vehicle's units were only able to illuminate up to 123 feet in front of the car. The Ridgeline's headlights, for reference, were able to illuminate up to 358 feet in front of the vehicle. To conduct its test, the IIHS utilizes a special tool to measure how far light is projected out of the headlights in different driving situations. The trucks' headlights were tested in a straight line and in corners, while vehicles with high-beam assist were given extra praise. The headlights on the pickup trucks also mimic the testing that was done on small SUVs and cars earlier this year. Next year, automakers will need to fit their vehicles with headlights that earn a rating of either good or acceptable to earn the IIHS Top Safety Pick+. Related Video:
