Selling my very loved and trusted 1997 e350 powerstroke diesel van with the legendary 7.3 motor. This van is setup for work and travel. The front cabin has a fold down seat that converts into a very comfy bed and the back is blocked off and has a metal shelf on one side. I have travelled with my tools in here to remote jobsites and still have plenty of room for sleeping cooking etc. also includes trac-rac lumber racks. A Yakima box and Yakima swing away hitch bike carrier.

The motor in this truck is very strong quiet and efficient. I track all of my mileage and my highway average is 20 MPG. The transmission is smooth and strong only light and infrequent towing with this truck though I do have an electric brake controller hooked up. Hoses and such have been changed for biodiesel compatibility. It has run amsoil synthetics in both the motor and the tranny for over 250000 miles with dual remote filters. Excellent maintenance and service history. This truck drives and stops straight.

The body is in good shape with a few dings and scratches but it is in good presentable shape. It has lived a majority of if its life in the mountains of n. Cal so very very little rust.
The interior is clean and quiet. Seats have always been covered and are in good condition. The cabin area has additional insulation in the wall. Equipped with power door locks, windows and cruise control. There is a JVC cd/mp3/ USB head unit. Also includes an infinity 10" subwoofer and amplifier.

This truck has excellent maintenance and service records/history. My mechanic says that this is the smoothest running and cleanest 7.3 he has seen. No smoke at cold starts or under throttle.

A decent amount of work within the past few years means she is ready for another 150000. New fuel pump. Filters. Alternator, fresh batteries, Thermostat water pump and radiator. Recent front end work and brakes. Tires are at 25 percent. It has the super nice billstein shocks installed last year. Aftermarket wheels. New glowplugs last year when she was getting maintenance.
Only selling due to an extended travel to Costa rica for a new project. This truck drives and runs excellent and I do not want to sell her.... but.

This truck is ready to work and / or travel.

I can provide additional photos or video to give you a accurate view of this truck.

This van is being sold as is, with NO warranty expressed or implied.

I am selling from the west coast in california. Shipping if required is sole responsibility of the Buyer. I will assist in help with coordinating shipping, meeting you in my local area or picking you up at a local airport and you can drive it home.

This truck is for sale privately and the auction may be ended early.

Payment will be a deposit of $750 dollars to Paypal within 24 hours of the close of the auction. The remaining balance will be accepted in cash or certified check at the time of vehicle pickup if in person, or cleared payment before shipping.

Ford also working on 200-mile EV to compete with Bolt, Model 3

Fri, Mar 6 2015

The Chevrolet Bolt is on a lot of people's radars. You may have even noticed friends and colleagues who harbor very little interest in the automotive world, or anything labeled as "green," who have taken notice of a 200-mile electric vehicle coming out of Detroit. Mass appeal is the idea, after all. You can include Ford in the list of interested parties, in this case with the intention of taking direct aim at the Bolt – and, by proxy, the Tesla Model 3 Â– with an affordable, long-range EV of its own. Ford will unveil its own long-range EV, positioned to compete with Chevrolet, later this year, according to Automobile. Details are very scarce about Ford's plans, but we do know that the Bolt (or whatever the Chevy all-electric hatchback will end up being called) is expected to offer over 200 miles of driving between charges, with a sticker price around $30,000. The other major player, of course, is Tesla's smaller, more affordable sibling to the Model S. The Model 3, also slated to go on sale in 2017, should cost less than $40,000. While Tesla has established itself in the EV world, another long-range EV out of Detroit would win some customers from the California-based startup. For now, though, we'll just have to wait, as Ford remains tight-lipped about its plans for the car. Automobile predicts a possible unveiling at the Los Angeles Auto Show in November, what with California's EV mandate being a driver of strategy for various automakers. Most can agree, though, that a larger field of options Â– while not ideal for backers of the Bolt or Model 3 Â– will only benefit the car-buying public.

Chip Ganassi Racing switches to the Ford EcoBoost-powered Riley Daytona Prototype

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates (CGRFS) announced yesterday at Ford's SEMA press conference that it will field a Ford-Riley Daytona Prototype with the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 in the 2014 United SportsCar Championship (USCC). CGRFS is the second team to commit to the new Ford-Riley car, behind Michael Shank Racing (which has already used the racecar to break a 26-year-old top-speed record at Daytona International Speedway).
"Over the last 10 seasons we have been able to experience a great deal of success in Grand-Am," Chip Ganassi says, "and now with the dawn of the new United SportsCar Championship we feel that Ford power will be a key ingredient to writing the next chapter of our sports car program."
In the last Grand-Am season, CGRFS raced a BMW-Riley Daytona Prototype. The team has won seven Daytona Prototype championships, all in the past ten years. Scott Pruett and Memo Rojas return as the team's prototype co-drivers, and will attend their maiden race in the Ford-Riley at the Rolex 24 at Daytona in January.
