Up for bid is my 1999 F350 XLT Diesel Crew CabTruck. I have only owned the truck for 2 years and I hate to see her go, but my business has no use for it anymore.
The Goods:
The truck is a 4 door crewcab with tons of space in the cab and is a shortbed (6'10") w/ bed-liner. The engine runs great and the truck only has 154,000 miles which is nothing for a 7.3 Diesel, which in my opinion is one of the best diesels ever made for a truck. These engines have been known to last up to 500,000 miles if maintained and are tanks!! Not many Ford diesels out there in the 1999-2002 year range that have such low mileage! I have dumped a lot into this truck. I added a new Softtopper retractable cap on the back last year ($800.00), which is nice for keeping tools and equipment dry and it is sweet because it can be put up and taken down in about 5 minutes!! A year ago I also replaced all of the glowplugs in the engine and it fires up great in the coldest of weather, it also has a plug in block heater for the coldest of nights. I also just had a new radiator/ transmission cooler and water pump installed along with a new starter ($2,200.00 of labor/parts!!) I also installed digital tow controls ($400.00), which are sweet if you ever have to haul heavier loads and need adjust the gain on trailers precisely. The truck has a 4.5" lift with 34.5" tires and also has a 4.5 inch straigt piped exhaust with digital readout on dash and performance chip, this gives it a nice whistle! The tires have about 1/3"- 1/2 tread and will last for a while. I installed all new custom sized shocks on the truck just last year. The truck has an automatic transmission and has 4WD with manual front locking hubs and the transmission shifts as it should and the 4WD works great with no problems. The truck has a heavy duty hitch receptacle in the rear and a 8" drop down hitch with 2" ball included, and I also installed a front 10,000 lb hitch a year ago behind the front bumper, which can be used for a ton of things. I also installed a ram air w/ an S&B re-usable filter which improves mileage and performance a little.
Bads:
Not many bads with this truck, but the paint is not in great condition. It looks fine on 9/10ths of the visible truck, but there is some clear coat chipping off primarily on the top of the roof (not visible) and it is starting to work it's way down to the doors. The passenger side rear cab door is the worst of it and you can see it in the pictures I posted. If I were to keep the truck I would probably just get a cheap paint job at Maaco, or just leave it the way it is as it is a work truck. There is no visible rust or anything major it is just a surface problem and it has remained the same for the last 2 years.
Overall this truck is in great mechanical condition and is a tank that will last many years for it's next owner. It is a tank and has been a great workhorse for the last two years! Good luck bidding!

Ford to add Android Auto and CarPlay to 2016 SYNC 3 cars via update
Fri, May 19 2017Ford is updating a large number of 2016 model year cars equipped with SYNC 3 infotainment software, adding Android Auto and CarPlay to the vehicles with a free, over-the-air update via Wi-Fi, or using either USB or going through their dealer. The upgrade will be available for around 800,000 vehicles in total, giving a huge number of Ford car owners the chance to get big infotainment improvements without having to buy a newer model car. The OTA update option is also a big step for Ford – it's the company's first for software ever, and it's one of the major reasons that Ford recently hired around 400 new mobile smartphone engineers, the company tells me. For CarPlay, users will still also need to upgrade their vehicle's USB hub to make this work (which will also incur a dealer visit and a cost), but for those on Android, all that's required is a simple software installation. The USB install method is also faster, but the Wi-Fi update option is the start of the company's efforts to really increase its OTA update program, which will be used for security improvements as well as infotainment bumps. Even with a dealer visit and hardware upgrade for CarPlay, this sounds like a worthwhile thing for 2016 vehicle owners to do. CarPlay and Android Auto are huge upgrades vs. most in-car software, offering navigation and entertainment options that follow you from your phone to your car. Retroactively offering this kind of thing to car owners is a definite change in tone for carmakers, since they typically use these kinds of things as incentives to get people interested in vehicle model updates. But as data becomes increasingly important to automakers as a business, it makes sense to encourage greater in-car use of devices.Written by Darrell Etherington for TechCrunchRelated Video: Auto News Ford Lincoln Technology Infotainment android
XCAR stages epic drag race between Ford GT40, GT70 and GT
Mon, 19 Aug 2013XCAR has put together what it believes is a first - a drag race between Ford's legendary, Le Mans-winning GT40, the more recent GT supercar it inspired and the little-known GT70 rally car. The three mid-engined monsters were all built for very different purposes, and not surprisingly, they come to battle with very different powertrains.
The GT40 is powered by a thumping, naturally aspirated V8. This example, which looks like a Mark IV model, is likely powered by a 7.0-liter engine, although it's not entirely clear how much power it's putting down. The GT70, meanwhile, was Ford's response to the Lancia Stratos. Considering that the Lancia is one of the greatest rally cars in history and many of you are probably just hearing of the GT70 for the first time, you can imagine how much success Ford had with it. Only six were produced before a change in regulations doomed this mid-engined rally car.
The Ford GT, meanwhile, doesn't really need an introduction. 550 horsepower is on offer from a 5.4-liter, supercharged V8, which keeps the GT competitive even against more modern supercars. 60 miles per hour arrives in well under four seconds while the top speed sits at 212 mph. Not bad for a car that went out of production in 2006.
2015 Ford Mustang to make world debut on Dec. 5 [w/video]
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Between a bevvy of spy shots, speculative renders and insidery images from the halls of Car and Driver, we've got a pretty decent idea of what the 2015 Ford Mustang might look like. Still, we're excited to see the real deal as soon as possible.
Turns out that Ford has told us just when that first official look might come, too, although it has chosen somewhat of a backdoor fashion for dropping the news.
The video below popped up on the Ford Mustang YouTube channel this morning, promoting a social media effort called #MustangInspires on. The video and hashtag ask fans of the pony car to share pictures of the car - or "photographic stories of inspiration" - on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, etc. But the truly interesting part of the video description is that which mentions taking "the cover off the all-new Mustang" on December 5. Consider our calendars marked.
