 Condition: In good condition for it's age, ready to go anywhere, well maintained, within the past year new brakes, new front tires, and new batteries.

Features: Fonataine body with 70+ gallon dual tank with automatic leveling pump, CB radio, brake controller, 5th wheel, boxes in the bed for spare tire and storage, bumper hitch, rear air bags with automatic pump. These trucks were built to tow.

History: I believe I am the 3rd owner. Originally a Canadian truck (hence the kilometers). Used to tow race cars for the for most of it's life. It hasn't seen snow/salt. Frame and body are in excellent condition. I've had it for the past 2-3 years and continued to use it just to tow my race car. I've maintained it to be a reliable tow vehicle. The only reason I'm selling is I'm downsizing to a single rear wheel truck so I do not have to run commercial plates in my home state (MA requires commercial plates for dually trucks). The 7.3L diesel is known to be reliable. This is the engine that put the super duties on the map. They do not blow out injectors or destroy turbos like the 6.0L engines on. It should be good for several more hundred of thousands of miles if maintained. The transmission has been replaced by the prior owner. I do not know how many miles are on this one. I rebuilt the differential and it should be good. There are some wear and noise from the bearings, but not enough that I replaced them. The transmission functions without issues. Any other things that have come up have been fixed and maintained. If you have any questions please ask. These trucks where $70K when new. You would be hard pressed to find a truck that can tow this amount without spending a lot more. If you do not need to tow anything, buy a different truck.

Shipping and Payment: ****NOTE**** I live in MA, but the rig and race car are stored in MI. The truck is currently located in Warren, MI and that will be the site for pick up or the origin site for shipping. Cash in person pick up or cleared cashiers check. If you cannot pick up the vehicle in person it is up to you to arrange, and pay for shipping. The truck will not be released until funds are transferred and secured. To aide in shipping the truck can be at a place of business to make pick up easier.

Ford recalling select Taurus, Explorer and Lincoln MKS models over fuel tanks

Sun, 31 Mar 2013

Ford is recalling certain 2012 Taurus, 2013 Explorer and 2012 Lincoln MKS models over fuel tank concerns. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, vehicles built between July 19, 2011 and March 15, 2012 may have been built with fuel tanks that have a "marginally sealed seam" on the side. Those seams may not provide the strength necessary to protect the tank from rupture during a collision. They may also leak. The recall covers a total of 3,037 vehicles. NHTSA says that leaked fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could easily cause a fire.
Dealers will inspect the tanks and replace them as need be free of charge. Owners can expect to be notified once the campaign begins on or around April 22, 2013. You can read the full NHTSA recall notice below for more information.

J Mays' legacy

Fri, 15 Nov 2013



Mays is by far not the first designer to use heritage design cues in his work.
The announcement that J Mays will be leaving his chief creative officer role at Ford Motor Company on January 1 ends a 13-year run in one of the industry's top design roles. While best known for having a hand in reborn classics like the Volkswagen New Beetle, Ford Mustang and Thunderbird (above), Mays' legacy is more complicated and nuanced than being considered the father of what is known as "retrofuturism".

Ford recalling 830,000 vehicles to replace side door latches

Thu, Aug 4 2016

The Basics: Ford is conducting a recall for roughly 830,000 models. The affected vehicles include the 2013 to 2015 Ford C-Max, 2012 to 2015 Ford Focus, 2013 to 2015 Ford Escape, 2015 Lincoln MKC, 2015 Ford Mustang, and 2014 to 2016 Ford Transit Connect. The recall is focused primarily in Arkansas, Alabama, Florida, California, Arizona, Hawaii, Georgia, New Mexico, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Nevada, Utah, Oklahoma, Washington, and Oregon as the problem mostly affects cars in states with warm weather. The Problem: The pawl spring tab in the side door latch in the affected vehicles could break, preventing the door from latching and could even cause the door to open while driving. Injuries/Deaths: There is one reported injury and one reported accident. The Fix: Dealers will replace the affected cars' side door latches. If you own one: Reach out to your local Ford dealer to schedule a service.
