 I PURCHASED THIS TRUCK A COUPLE YEARS AGO WITH THE INTENT OF BUILDING A CLEAN AND RELIABLE BACK-UP VEHICLE FOR MY LANDSCAPING COMPANY.  I HAVE PUT A LOT OF MONEY INTO IT.  THE TRUCK RUNS STRONG AND HAS ALWAYS STARTED AND RUN WELL FOR ME.  IT HAS LESS THAN 500 MILES ON IT SINCE THE TRANSMISSION REBUILD.  I AM SELLING BECAUSE I AM NOW OUT OF THE LANDSCAPING INDUSTRY DUE TO HEALTH PROBLEMS.  AS THEY SAY, MY LOSS IS YOUR GAIN.  **AT SOME POINT THE ODOMETER STOPPED WORKING- IT ONLY GOES TO 100K AND IT CURRENTLY READS "14,824".**  I USED MY IPHONE FOR A SPEEDOMETER AND HADN'T GOTTEN AROUND TO FIXING IT BEFORE I DECIDED TO SELL IT.

THERE ARE A LOT OF DETAILS LISTED IN THE CONDITION ABOVE.  I HAVE THE RECEIPT FROM THE TRANSMISSION/ CLUTCH/ FLYWHEEL/ U-JOINTS REBUILD/ REPLACEMENT.  ($4463.12) I HAD $1000 WORTH OF WORK DONE TO THE FRONT SUSPENSION.  I HAVE TONS OF TIME AND MONEY INTO THE BODY.  OLD RUST WAS CUT OUT, NEW ROCKERS, CAB CORNERS, FLOOR PANS, ETC. WELDED IN, TREATED AREAS WITH RUST NEUTRALIZER "POR 15", NEW BODY MOULDING AND ROCK GUARD/ BEDLINER AROUND THE BASE OF CAB. 

I USED THE TRUCK TO HAUL SKIDS OF SALT TO A CONDOMINIUM CLIENT I HAD 2 WINTERS AGO AND IT WORKED WELL.  I WAS EASILY ABLE TO LOAD 4,000 LBS OF SALT ON PALLETS AND DRIVE SAFELY.  THE TRUCK HAS NOT BEEN PLOWED WITH SINCE THE TRANSMISSION REBUILD- NOT 1 TIME.  I PUT THE PLOW  ON ONLY AS A BACK UP AND IT WAS NEVER NEEDED.  PLOW HARNESS WAS NEW 2 SEASONS AGO.  THE PLOW IS APPROXIMATELY 9'.  THE PLOW MOUNT IS A HYBRID. THE COMPANY I BOUGHT THE TRUCK OFF OF USED IT AS A BACK-UP BUT THEY USED WESTIN.  I HAD HINIKER SO I WELDED THE NEEDED PIECES TOGETHER FOR THE NEW MOUNT.  I DROVE THIS TRUCK APPROX 250 MILES ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN I MOVED LAST YEAR (WITH PLOW AND TRAILER) AND IT RAN STRONG, NO PROBLEMS.  RECOMMEND INSPECTING PLOW MOUNT TO MAKE SURE YOU ARE SATISFIED, ETC. PHOTO INCLUDED.

I DID USE IT TO DELIVER APPROXIMATELY 5 LOADS OF MULCH LAST YEAR.  I DROVE IT AN AVERAGE OF 1X PER MONTH SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT.  I DID NOT RUN IT LAST WINTER AT ALL.  I WENT OUT TO START IT ABOUT A MONTH AGO AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP ON THE FIRST CRANK.  I DID NOT EVEN NEED TO CHARGE THE BATTERY.

THE TRUCK RAN GOOD WHEN I PURCHASED IT BUT I BEGAN REPLACING THE COMPONENTS THAT I DIDN'T WANT TO REPLACE WHEN IT WAS 5 BELOW OR 95 IN THE SHADE.  I HATE TO SELL IT BECAUSE OF THE MONEY (NOT TO MENTION TIME) THAT I HAVE PUT INTO IT.  HOWEVER,  I WOULD RATHER SOMEONE ELSE GET TO USE IT THAN HAVE IT SIT AT MY HOUSE.

THIS IS NOT A SHOW TRUCK BUT IS A PRESENTABLE WORK TRUCK.  I AM NOT A PROFESSIONAL MECHANIC OR BODY MAN.  I AM SURE THAT I HAVE INADVERTENTLY FORGOTTEN TO MENTION SOME THINGS.  FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME TO LOOK AT THIS TRUCK IN PERSON. 

I WANT YOU TO BID ON WHAT IT IS AND NOTHING ELSE.  TRUCK SOLD AS IS, WHERE IS.  I AM NOT OFFERING A WARRANTY AT THIS TIME.

THANK YOU FOR LOOKING.

Motor Trend pits Camaro 1LE vs Mustang with Performance Pack, surprises ensue

Thu, 16 Oct 2014

With the 2015 Ford Mustang firmly on the scene, the inevitable comparisons with its arch rival, the 2015 Chevrolet Camaro are just starting to trickle out. Over the next several months, you're likely to be inundated by every outlet's muscle car comparison, whether it be the turbocharged Ford against the V6 Chevy, a V8-powered convertible comparo or what we have here, a competition between each vehicle's performance upgrade.
Motor Trend has pitted the Camaro SS 1LE against a Mustang with the GT Performance Pack for a comprehensive series of comparisons on the test stage, street and finally, at Willow Springs with ace Randy Pobst behind the wheel. As per usual, we aren't about to spoil this one for you.

Ford C-Max spot aimed squarely at Cadillac ELR 'Poolside' hubris [UPDATE]

Thu, Mar 27 2014

If we had tried to predict the first video response to the controversial Poolside video for the Cadillac ELR, we would not have thought it would center on compost. But, hey, it's always nice to be reminded that the real world is sometimes better than fiction. Instead of the chic swagger of 'Poolside,' 'Anything Is Possible' is all about getting dirty. The new short in question is called Upside: Anything Is Possible and it promotes two things: Detroit Dirt and the Ford C-Max Energi. As in the ELR ad, Ford's plug-in C-Max only makes an appearance at the tail end of the spot, but instead of the chic swagger of Poolside, Anything Is Possible is all about getting dirty. The ad stars Pashon Murray, co-founder of Detroit Dirt, which takes natural waste from around Detroit, composts it into soil and then spreads that around "forgotten parcels" of Detroit to create urban farms. Detroit Dirt gets its bio-waste from a lot of sources, including the Detroit Zoological Society (all that herbivore manure has to go somewhere), Ford and General Motors, but this particular ad was the idea of Ford's PR agency, Team Detroit. It was a frenetic shoot, filmed with an LA-based director right after a big winter storm blew through Detroit, and Murray couldn't be happier with the result. "This was Ford Motor Company pushing my story, letting me tell the story that I believe in," Murray tells AutoblogGreen. "I get to help push this car and I get to tell my story." She says that the Team Detroit and Ford had to agree on the message, "from my understanding, [YouTube] is where they wanted to start, not where they wanted to finish." The ad is already getting a positive response on Twitter, so we won't be surprised if it shows up in more places soon. "It's not saying Ford is better than GM. It's telling the story of a black woman who's working hard in Detroit." As Detroit Dirt has off-screen support from both GM and Ford, it's unsurprising to hear Murray say that the video "is not a rivalry thing." She notes that the ad agency Team Detroit came to her and offered to tell the Detroit Dirt story using the framework of the GM ad. "It's a parody on this commercial, but it's not saying Ford is better than GM," she said. "It's telling the story of a black woman who's working hard in Detroit." What is that story? It's about urban farming, recovery and recycling. Murray tells us that for the last seven or eight years, she's been dedicated to sustainability.

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.
