I am selling my 2001 Ex with the Legandary 7.3 L Diesel. I bought this truck back in March of this year, and some personal matters have taken place. I can no longer afford to keep it, and I need something more practical to haul my kids around. It's a really nice truck.  It catches a lot of eyes, and has plenty of power for hauling.  I hauled my Jeep 500 miles with it with no problems whatsoever.

Truck has 207,000 miles.  If you do your research, or know anything about these engines, there is easily another 200-300K left in it.

Truck has full leather with 3rd row seating and rear air.  Seats and carpet are in nice shape

The front end has been upgraded to a 2005 Harley Davidson Edition.  The front headlights have an HID upgrade kit.

8" Fabtech suspension lift with front Dirt logic 4.0 coil overs and rear air bags. The lift alone was $12,000.

38X15.50 R20 Toyo Open Country MTs mounted on 20X10 black Jesse James wheels.  Tires in decent shape.  They still have several miles left in them.  2 of the wheels have a slight color variation.  Looks to me like someone used some type of cleaner on them, and they blemished the wheel. I included pics.  I was looking at replacing them when I replaced the tires.

I bought the truck out of Florida, and the roof is oxidized.  I got an estimate on repainting the roof for $400.  Granted, that wasn't a showroom paint job, but the roof is 8 feet off the ground and it doesn't need to be.  You can't see the roof.  I thought the $400 estimate was fair.

There is a small oil leak.  I had it checked out by the dealer and it needs a crankcase vent filter.  It goes on top of the left valve cover.  The price of the filter is $200.

There is a check engine light that has been on since I bought it.  The code is waste gate sensor.  The dealer said it was probably a bad solenoid.  I didn't worry about it because it had to do with emissions, and not engine.  The truck drives with no issues.

It does not have a steering stabilizer on it.  I was going to put one on it, but frankly, I've gotten used to it.  It drives a little loose, but not too bad.  I drove it home 15 hours from Florida running 80 MPH with no issues. You can get a dual steering stabilizer for as little as $135.

There is a JL Audio Sub mounted in the spare tire.  These are the best subs money can buy. The amp for the sub is under the rear seat, and all door speakers have been upgraded to MTX.  I just put a new Clarion Double Din receiver in with Bluetooth.

Since I bought the truck in March, I've replace both batteries with Optima Red top batteries. Those were $400.  I put a new alternator ($200) on in May.  Both rear corner panel windows are new.  The seals were shot from the Florida sun and both windows leaked.  I couldn't buy new seals, since the seals came already mounted to the glass.  The windows were $500 a piece. I also added the black bull bar on the front which is believe was around $200.

The passenger rear window is a little slow coming back up.

I am an honest seller.  I have described this truck honest and fairly.  The things this truck needs are minimal and minor.  Overall, the truck in is great shape.  Seats, carpet, and paint are all nice. Engine runs like it should, and 4WD shifts in and out smoothly.  Both fuel filters were just replaced.

As always.. it is best for you to see this truck in person before buying.  Shipping is the buyers responsibility, but I am more than happy to assist.  I will be here when the truck is loaded and I will take pictures of the whole process if you prefer.  If you choose to pick up, I can meet you at the airport with the truck in Paducah, KY.  That airport is 30 miles from my house.  It is a small airport, and more expensive to fly into.  If the cost of the ticket is too expensive, I will meet in Nashville, TN, or St. Louis, MO. Both of those airports are roughly 3 hours from my house. I will do that at my own expense.

Truck has clear title.  If you need specific pictures or more information, feel free to call or text 270-705-0815.

Truck is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early if it sells.  Even on the day of the auction close.

Ford Fusion demand outstripping supply

Sat, 15 Jun 2013

The attractive new 2013 Ford Fusion has done wonders for the brand in the highly competitive midsize sedan segment - the vehicle is up nearly 22 percent compared to last year. But that sales momentum may soon hold steady due to low inventory levels of the new Fusion across the United States.
According to a report in The Detroit News, citing automotive data and Ward's Auto, Ford currently has a 39-day supply of the Fusion. That might sound fine, but a normally healthy average is about a 60-day supply. If Ford were to stop production on the Fusion today, there would only be enough vehicles available to get through another five weeks of sales, according to the News.
Currently, Ford produces the Fusion at its three-shift assembly plant in Hermosillo, Mexico, and will add production at its facility in Flat Rock, MI later this year. A Ford spokesperson told The Detroit News that when Flat Rock production comes online, the automaker will need to rush new stock out to the regions with the most demand for the Fusion. Ford has doubled its coastal retail market share, with huge amounts of growth in areas like Los Angeles, San Francisco and Miami, the News reports.

Ford paying $750 million just to close plant in Belgium

Thu, 21 Mar 2013

According to a report from Reuters, Ford is shelling out $750 million in a severance deal that will see the automaker close its facility in Genk, Belgium. The automaker reached this deal with the 4,000 hourly workers employed at the plant last week, which means the company will pay out an average of $187,500 per worker.
Ford is still negotiating with the 300 salaried workers at the factory, which currently produces the Mondeo sedan. All told, Ford expects to lose around $2 billion in Europe thanks in no small part to the region's ongoing economic downturn, and two more plants are scheduled to be shut down in Europe this year. The company will log its $750 million payout under "special items" for this quarter.
As you may recall, Ford took a similar path in the US back in 2009 when the domestic market took a spill. Back then, the company shelled out around $50,000 per employee with at least one year of experience, plus either $25,000 toward a new car or an extra cash payment of $20,000. It would seem the cost of closing plants in Belgium is a much harder pill to swallow than in the States...

Autocar pits Formula Ford against Germany's finest

Wed, 25 Sep 2013

Ford has quite the racing pedigree, but usually, its racers are relegated to the track. Not the new Formula Ford EcoBoost, though. It's a turbocharged, open-wheeled racer complete with a 200-horsepower, 1.0-liter, three-cylinder engine... and it's legal on the roads of the UK.
That's stressed in this video from Autocar, with the mag going so far as to show the car's tax disc and license plates. Being a road-legal offering, it's tempting to see just how well an open-wheeler that delivers racecar-like performance while also netting over 100 miles per gallon (assume this is on the British cycle, for obvious reasons) stacks up against modern performance cars.
Autocar lined up the Formula Ford against an Audi R8 V10, a BMW M6 Gran Coupe and a Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG in a number of situations to see which would come out on top. Take a look below for the full video.
