The Truck 

2004 FORD F150 LARIAT
Less than 38,000 miles

The Man

 This truck belonged to my Uncle. His name was Clay. This truck was his pride and joy!!

Clay was a Marine who served in Vietnam. He was a police officer in Ct. and a Sargent in Fl

Clay  had his first heart attack at age 39.

He was as tough as nails. (maybe tougher) !
 
He purchased this truck not long after being diagnosed with lung cancer in 2003. The Doctors gave him 18 months.

They did NOT know Clay !

The Truck


Black on Black

The original sticker shows all the details and is the last in the series of pictures that I've added.

 A complete service was done on this truck 9/06/2011 to the tune of $2098. 29.

Tires have approximately 5,000  miles on them. 

This truck is in excellent condition. It was detailed and the oil changed last week.


The Man


He wanted to keep her impeccable. 

He kept every record of every maintenance that this truck has had.

He even kept a small notebook over the visor and logged every mile he drove.

Clay beat his lung cancer and dealt with continuing heart issues.

A surgery here, an angioplasty there....he never complained.

He became a computer geek and worked part time from home. 

He made friendships and touched the lives of so many people around the world.

Clay developed a blood cancer in 2009.

Cancer was NOT tougher than Clay.

He battled back - He knew the routine.

He continued to work part time and again he never complained.

He knew when his heart needed work and each time he would drive himself to the hospital. 

  He was TOUGH !
BUILT FORD TOUGH !

He had heart problems this past October and he got in the truck to get tot he hospital.

He made it to the end of his driveway before he had to call for an ambulance.

He passed October 28th, 2013. 
He was 65
And cancer never beat him !

He left his "baby".....this truck to his sister ( My Mom)

Here are Mom's words



Clay's baby.....

 

"The pride of my brother's life was his 2004 Ford 150 Lariat Truck, black with

black windows, and the "bubba rumble" as I would call his mufflers, it was

his baby. He kept a log of every mile he drove and every service that was done.

from the time he bought it.

 Well my brother has been called home by Our Lord and although

he left me, his sister the truck, it is with much sadness that I must sell this

beautiful truck to a person who loves the "bubba rumble" and who will

sit high in the front seat as Captain of his own ship and feel the magic from

it;s beauty. If I were a younger person, and Mr Arthritis and Mr Old age

weren't present I would drive this "baby" with pride,listening to his truck

music which brings back many memories, and when stopped at a stop sign

next to another truck, look over and whisper without words, "watch it"

"I see your envy, this is Clay's truck, his baby and then leave them in the dust"!!

 

Sometimes, a truck is just a truck. 

This one, well this one seems like more.



It's important to my Mom that you know the history of this truck. She is 77 and it's too much truck for her.

She wants the new owner to appreciate the truck.

All the maintenance records will come with the truck.

Please email me with any questions you may have. If you need additional pics, just let me know.

Petersen Museum celebrates 50 years of Ford Mustang with special exhibit

Mon, May 5 2014

If you're a pony-car enthusiast, this is your year. Not only has Ford introduced an all-new Mustang, but it's also the 50th anniversary of the original. Celebrations and commemorations have been scheduled throughout the year, and not the least of them is the latest exhibit at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles. Called "Mustangs Forever: 50 Years of a Legend", the exhibit includes Mustangs from every generation of the iconic pony car, including the 1965 convertible Ronald Reagan drove during his California gubernatorial campaign, a 1971 Mach 1 Cobra Jet, a 1974 Mustang II, 1993 SVT Cobra, 2000 Cobra R and a 2006 Shelby GT-H. Special sections focus on motorsports, aftermarket modifiers and limited-edition models. The display opened on Sunday with the Mustang Madness spectacular and will run for the next six months, but if you're not heading to Southern California within the coming half-year then you can scope out all the action in our live gallery of photos above.

Ford using robot drivers to test durability [w/video]

Sun, 16 Jun 2013

In testing the durability of its upcoming fullsize Transit vans, Ford has begun using autonomous robotic technology to pilot vehicles through the punishing courses of its Michigan Proving Grounds test facility. The autonomous tech allows Ford to run more durability tests in a single day than it could with human drivers, as well as create even more challenging tests that wouldn't be safe to run with a human behind the wheel.
The technology being used was developed by Utah-based Autonomous Solutions, and isn't quite like the totally autonomous vehicles being developed by companies like Google and Audi for use out in the real world. Rather, Ford's autonomous test vehicles follow a pre-programmed course and their position is tracked via GPS and cameras that are being monitored from a central control room. Though the route is predetermined, the robotic control module operates the steering, acceleration and braking to keep the vehicle on course as it drives over broken concrete, cobblestones, metal grates, rough gravel, mud pits and oversize speed bumps.
Scroll down to watch the robotic drivers in action, though be warned that you're headed for disappointment if you expect to see a Centurion behind the wheel (nerd alert!). The setup looks more like a Mythbusters experiment than a scene from Battlestar Galactica.

Ford spills SEMA all over its Expeditions

Sat, 01 Nov 2014

If you're going to this year's SEMA Show in Las Vegas, it's going to be tough to miss the Ford booth, simply for its size. The Blue Oval is bringing over a dozen customized examples of the 2015 Mustang and a quintet of modded Transits. The latest announced addition is a trio of upgraded 2015 Expeditions showing different takes on the recently refreshed SUV.
Any vehicle tuned by Dub Magazine needs to ride on massive wheels, and the Expedition (pictured above) that it has for SEMA is no exception. The SUV has 26-inch Dropstars wheels wrapped in Pirelli tires, and, making them look even larger, the suspension is also lowered. The rest of the custom has some mild upgrades like mesh grilles in front, tinted windows, an integrated radar detector and new upholstery inside.
Tijn wants to boost the performance of the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 for its take on the Expedition. The company claims to add 40 horsepower to bring total output to a claimed 405 by upgrading the engine with a charge cooler from Vortech Engineering, a custom side exhaust and a custom tune. To match the extra grunt, the SUV also gets bigger brakes, an Air Lift suspension and 24-inch, copper-colored wheels with custom fender flares.
