Up for sale is a fully refurbished, F550 Service truck that I have spent an entire year working on. First let me begin that both the truck and the Maintainer service body were never exposed to any salt, so they are both completely rust free. The truck was a flat bed in Louisiana so it has had a very easy life, the body is completely rust free. All brake lines, fuel lines, fuel tank, fenders are perfect. It truely looks like a new truck underneath. The service body was used on sight in a quarry so it never saw a salty road. I spent a year looking for the right truck for this body. I built this truck to last me 10 years as I run a small independant mechanic shop. Well 2 months ago I recieved a job offer to work for a large Pipeline company, as faith would have it I could not pass it up. So now someone else is going to get a beatiful truck.
Begining with the truck, it is a low mileage 165k, f550, 6-speed, cruise, AC, tilt, Xl interior truck. The truck was fully stripped down to bare metal and primerd with Dupont DP epoxy primer, then the truck was painted with PPG White base coat and clear coat. The truck recieved all new light bulbs, new decals, New windshield, I fully serviced the truck, including new belt, fuel filter, engine oil and filter, new alternator, new batteries, new PTO, and new IPC sensor and pigtail. There are many more various parts which were changed, but after a year it becomes hard to remember them all! The truck has excellant tires, drives well shifts well(4th gear does sometimes grind on fast downshifts typical of ZF6's). Also the truck has lots of power, I looked for a 1999 because it had the best 7.3 diesel, with the true forged rods! Again the truck is rust free, Also I have driven the truck nearly 1800 miles as I bought it in texas, drove it across the pan handle flat towing my explorer, and then drove it from Florida to Illinois, with a 6000lb load on the flatbed. The truck does not use any oil, and does not leak puddles on the ground. This truck was made when the F550 was at the top of its game, this is not a Junk 6.0, or 6.4 diesel, NO EMISSIONS to worry about on this engine!
Now to the Service body. The service body is a Maintainer 11ft body. With a fully Hydraulic 2 stage 6000lb crane, Also the truck has a Hydraulic 25cfm air compressor, and a NEW Lincoln ranger 225 welder, the welder has zero hours! The service body was fully stripped, with the doors being soda blasted, painted with DP epoxy primer, then painted with Dupont Delstar enamel paint. I DID NOT paint the crane on this truck, as the paint was not bad, and to properly paint a crane it should be disassembled. Inside the Service box are 3 tool boxes, a parts bin rack, and a large hose reel. Maintainer is the Cadillac of service bodies, they are the best hands down. NOTHING compares to a Maintainer, period.
Im sure there will be a lot of questions, and I will take any pictures which are requested. I spent a ton of time building this truck, and spent a ton of time to perfect this service truck. Any one who wishes to see this truck is welcome to see it, also the truck is for sale outside of ebay so I can cancell the auction at any time, Also to replace this truck right now would cost over 115k!

Ford recalling 850,000 cars and SUVs for airbag issues
Fri, 26 Sep 2014Ford has announced a major recall of 850,000 vehicles from model years 2013 and 2014 due to a problem with the "restraints control module."
According to Ford, a short circuit could develop in the module, causing the airbag warning light to illuminate. In more severe cases, dependent on where the short develops, the airbags and seatbelt pre-tensioners may not work in the event of an accident. The problems can be more wide-ranging than that, too, as systems that rely on information from the control module, such as the stability control can be affected.
With 850,000 vehicles affected, it's no surprise that some of Ford's volume leaders are covered. That includes the Fusion and Lincoln MKZ sedans, as well as the incredibly recall-prone Escape and the C-Max MPV.

Ford Figo concept unveiled in India
Mon, 03 Feb 2014Ford has officially unveiled the Figo Concept at the 2014 Auto Expo in New Delhi. While it may wear a concept badge, we'd argue this little sedan, which is under 12 feet long, looks ready to replace the current Figo and do battle with other B-segment cars in the world's emerging markets.
"With the Figo Concept, we are showing that choosing a compact sedan does not mean compromising on premium design or smart solutions," said Kumar Galhotra, Ford's VP of engineering, global product development. That premium design includes Ford's familial, trapezoidal grille and Fusion-esque headlights in front, while the rear end reminds us of the last-generation Focus Coupe. While that car wasn't exactly attractive, the chopped off tail looks pretty nice on this smaller car. And if you really don't like the looks of the Figo Concept, just remember - it looks better than the current production model. Aerodynamically, the Figo's shape is quite slippery, which means reduced wind noise and improved fuel economy.
As for the "smart solutions" touted by Galhotra, the narrow confines of Indian streets make driving even the tiniest cars a challenge. To give the Figo Concept a one-up on the competition, Ford has fitted power-folding mirrors that sport a "flexible architecture," which should stand up well to bumps from cars, people or bikes. We don't have any interior images, but Ford is promising a large cabin, that includes a dock that can accommodate a phone or MP3 player, allowing either to be controlled through the car.
