2002 Ford F-350 Xlt on 2040-cars
Winston Salem, North Carolina, United States
Up for sale is my 2002 Ford F-350 Super Duty XLT 4X4 Longbed. I have owned this truck for about 9 years. I am the second owner of this truck. This is one of the cleanest and by far the nicest 7.3 Powerstrokes out there. When I bought the truck it was completely stock and original. The truck used to be white in color and after owning the truck for about 6 years I wanted to change it up a bit. Just so everyone knows, I did not paint the truck because it was wrecked or damaged. I just wanted to paint it. The truck has no body work done to it except a few little rock chips or door dings that I repaired during the process. I own a body shop and tore the truck down and repainted it about two years ago. With that being said there were no short cuts taken and no cheap materials were used on my truck. Only the best of the best were used. Everything was completely disassembled, refinished and done right then put back together. Under the hood and the door jambs are just as nice as the outside. The finish on the truck is a basecoat/clearcoat show quality finish. The base coat is House of Kolors Rootbeer candy with Brandywine & Tangerine candy mixed in. It is a really cool color because it changes about 5 different colors depending on the lighting and time of day. I have the mixing ratio that I mixed incase of the event of a bump up or scratch that ever needed to be repaired. I actually also have about 3/4 of gallon left over that I kept. The clear coat on the truck is a PPG high solids clear that has an amazing shine. The truck has been sanded and buffed to a really nice finish. This truck has a 4" Rough Country lift on it with 35/13.50/18 Mickey Thompson ATZ's that are in good shape and 18X10 MB Motoring Wheels. The Wheels are actually one of a kind as well because I had them powder coated flat black and a machine shop drilled out the circles around the wheel lip for a more custom look. The wheels balance out perfect with only normal amount of weights on them. If you look in the picture I had a custom gas lid door powder coated the same color to match the wheels. Every light on the truck is the factory ford lights except the headlights and have been tinted using PPG Clearcoat and black candy basecoat. The lights are just as slick as the truck and can be polished just like a regular finish. The front and rear bumpers have been powder coated the same color as the wheels and gas lid door and have no dents or scratches anywhere. The rear bumper is a 6" drop bumper and has a great aggressive look. The truck has a steel cowl hood and if you look closely in the picture you can see barbed wire running down the cowl of the hood. I didn't have the best light (it was getting dark) for the barbed wire to show but in good sunlight it shows up really good. I also painted barbed wire around the emblem on the tailgate. The emblem on the tail gate has been custom painted with the letters "SC" which stands for "Southern Comfort" which is what I named the truck as you can see on the bedsides in the pictures. All of the stencil work is actually paint on this truck, there are no stickers or decals anywhere. Every piece of plastic trim including the mirrors, cowl panel, bumper plastic and bed rail caps on the truck have been refinished with SEM's Hot Rod Black (Not spray paint) for that perfect trim color. All of the trim looks brand new like it just rolled off the showroom floor. The grille of the truck is also a one of a kind grille, I painted the outer shell the same SEM's Hot Rod Black and I left the center section chrome. The headlights in the truck are new 2005-2007 Super Duty Harley Davidson lights. All of the emblems on the truck are new 2005-2007 Ford F-350 Super Duty Emblems. The mirrors on the truck are 2005-2007 Super Duty power & heated mirrors. I removed the 7.3 diesel emblems on the door for a smoother look. The truck has a Rhino Liner in the bed and a turn-over gooseneck hitch in the bed. The truck has a Clarion touchscreen CD/DVD/Navigation that cost me about $600 and is a very nice unit. The door speakers are JL Audio. The windows have been tinted and to be honest I am not sure what percentage they are but they look good with the color of the truck. The only flaw I know of is the tent on the back glass is barely starting to wrinkle at the bottom where the sliding bank glass slides, but you can't see it from the outside of the truck

NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Owners of Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner, Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models, listen up. According to a report on Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into these four vehicles totaling an estimated 725,000 units. The investigation appears to center around a malfunctioning throttle body on non-hybrid models of the 2005-2012 Escape and 2011-2012 Fusion. With Mercury dying off after the 2011 model year, this probe will also apply to the 2005 through 2011 Mariner and the 2011 Milan. There has been some discussion around the Escape stalling issue for some time now, but this investigation appears to be larger in scope than before.
Though not a recall yet, NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 123 complaints of stalling or surging vehicles, while Ford itself has logged 1,472 complaints. The investigation report, which is posted below, seems to indicate that a faulty circuit board for the throttle body could cause the vehicle to go into limp mode, which, according to NHTSA, could cause complaints of both stalling and surging.
A tribute to William Clay Ford
Tue, 11 Mar 2014The passing of William Clay Ford has been a big event for the company he spent most of his life helping run. Ford spent 57 years working for his family's company. Considering the Blue Oval has been around for over 100 years, WCF's passing is the end of an era for the Dearborn-based manufacturer.
Ford's YouTube channel has issued a short memorial video highlighting the life of the longest-lived grandson of company founder Henry Ford. It follows William Clay from his time as a boy, showing him alongside his grandfather, through his younger years, and into his twilight, as the patriarch of the Ford family.
Take a look below for this touching memorial video on William Clay Ford.
Ford of India in hot water for Figo celebrity bondage ads
Fri, 22 Mar 2013Apparently sensibilities in India, at least in the case of some Ford marketing partners, are downright lascivious at times. Case in point are a new series of print ads, presumably touting the vast cargo capacity of the Ford Figo hatchback, that involve more than a whiff of T&A, S&M and other sexy abbreviations.
In all seriousness, the advertising campaign is taking some major heat in the Indian press for being outrageously sexist. All three images - which seem to be produced by a graphic artist with some Heavy Metal work in his/her portfolio - show bound and gagged people stuffed into the Figo's boot. With a tagline reads, "Leave Your Worries Behind." one version features a peace-sign throwing Silvio Berlusconi holding hostage three buxom and barely clad women, all wearing ball gags with hands and feet bound. Charming. Another version shows Paris Hilton similarly kidnapping a trio of Kardashians, while a third (tame in terms of the clothing at least), has Michael Schumacher toting Sebastian Vettel, Fernando Alonso, and Lewis Hamilton.
Clearly in bad taste, at least, the Indian source also questions the timing of these risqué Ford ads, as the follow by days new anti-rape legislation passed by the Indian Parliament. Ford has responded in a statement, that it and its advertising partner (JWT India) "deeply regret" the ads, and claim that they "never should have happened."
