Here is a 1988 Ford f250 for sale that I purchased in 2006 from a guy in Portland, Oregon area. I used it to haul plywood and things from Lowes, Home Depot, ect. Also used it to get to work once when my main vehicle was in the shop. It isn't a show truck, but it is a good hauler or work truck. It has some scratches, small dents, blemishes, etc. but not all that bad for a truck thats 25 years old. It hasn't been beaten, used as a farm truck, or been out going through mud holes while in my possession. Reason I'm selling is because most of my home projects are done, and rarely drive the truck anymore. So I would rather someone use it than have it as a lawn ornament. It has been a good truck for me and has been giving oil changes and tune-ups as scheduled for routine maintenance. If it ever needed anything I would do my best to get it fixed... since I've owned it the only work that has been needed is battery replacement, Altenator replacement, and fuel tank selector valve. Other items include fuel filter replaced (just because it never had been), changed both brake calipers (driver side had a issue) and regular oil changes, plugs wires, brake pads, air filters, etc.... With the history of the truck out of the way, here is a list of pros and cons....

PROS:

  1. Not a Rust bucket. (some rust as shown in pictures)
  2. Runs like it should.
  3. Shifts like it should.
  4. 4x4 works like it should.
  5. Recently had tune up/ oil change.
  6. (4) New Shocks all around. (less than 100 miles on them)
  7. (4) New Michelin Tires. (less than 100 miles on them)
  8. (4) New Chrome Wheels. (less than 100 miles on them)
  9. New 4-speaker Pioneer stereo put in last year.
  10. Interior in good condition.
  11. Doesn't burn oil.
  12. New lockout hubs (both sides)
  13. Both gas tanks are used.
  14. 3/4 ton, 4x4.
  15. Good heat in winter time.

CONS:

  1. Bed has some rust. (as shown in pictured)
  2. Small play in steering wheel. (never really bothered me, but should mention)
  3. Smallest of oil leak. (Mechanic thinks it may be coming from timing chain cover)
  4. May have exhaust leak on passenger side exhaust manifold gasket. (not super loud or anything, just noticed worn gasket the last time I installed new plugs/wires)
  5. Fuel gauge pegs to full reading (when full) and stays there until about half tank.
  6. A/C unit is all there but needs charged or inspected. (Always drove with windows down)

With the f250 being 25 years old, it is being sold AS-IS. I have done my best to honestly describe the truck to the best of my ability. This is just a good ol truck for somone looking for a hauler/daily/work truck that won't empty your bank account. Also I prefer local pick-up with cash, but will allow shipping if arranged entirley by buyer. Basically payment would be sent cashiers check and cleared by my bank and then I would help with getting it on transfer truck or trailer that you arranged. Any questions please contact me via Ebay message (I will check it a few times a day).......THANKS FOR LOOKING!

Ford reports 58% drop in Q2 profits on European losses

Wed, 25 Jul 2012



Ford Motor Company announced Wednesday that it has posted a $1 billion profit for the second quarter of 2012. That sounds like good news for the Blue Oval, until you take into account that Ford posted a $2.4 billion profit for Q2 a year ago. That is a substantial 58 percent loss.
Ford also posted $465 million in international losses, with $404 million of those losses coming directly from Europe. The automaker also increased its European loss projections to $1 billion for 2012, due in large part to the economic crisis overseas, which has resulted in increased unemployment and decreased consumer confidence.

2015 Ford Mustang option prices gallop onto the web

Tue, 22 Apr 2014

The 2015 Ford Mustang is one of the most anticipated cars of the year, despite the fact that production hasn't yet begun. What's a pony car fan to do? It turns out that Ford already has pricing and options information about the vehicle in its dealer ordering system. A few enterprising folks have snapped some pictures from it and have posted them online. You might not be able to drive your car yet, but you can at least see what it might cost.
At the moment, Ford appears to be splitting the Mustang into five models - 3.7-liter V6, 2.3-liter EcoBoost, GT with the 5.0-liter V8, 50th Anniversary and SVT. There are 10 available paint colors, 2 of which require an extra outlay. Triple Yellow is $495, and Ruby Red Tint is $395. Regardless of model, navigation goes for $795, and reverse parking assist is $295.
For both the EcoBoost and GT, the six-speed automatic tacks an extra $1,195 to the sticker, and adaptive cruise control is the same price. The GT also has a limited-slip 3.55 rear end for $395 and a GT Performance package for $2,495. Recaro leather seats add an extra $1,595. For the EcoBoost, there's something called EcoBoost Performance package for $1,995. The system doesn't say what the packages include.

Ford Mustang EcoBoost has fake engine soundtrack

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

The 2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost represents a huge change for the Blue Oval as the first pony car in decades to be available with a four-cylinder engine. But a recent tweet (below) from Road & Track raised our curiosity about the new vehicle. Editor Jason Cammisa pulled a fuse while driving the latest 'Stang with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine, and he found that both the stereo and engine went quiet in the cabin. That indicated the coupe might have some form of artificial engine sound being piped in - a feature not previously heavily reported for the model. Autoblog spoke with Ford engineer Shawn Carney who confirmed that only the turbocharged four-cylinder Mustang comes with this system, called Active Noise Control.
