I've owned this truck since 2009. It runs perfectly and is very comfortable to drive.

In 2010 I added a Volo Fuel enhancement computer to the truck giving it an extra 6 miles to the gallon. This truck will give you 20-22 miles per gallon. Also, a professionally built hydrogen generator is installed, but not turned on (the fuse is taken out which supplies its power). The acrylic casing on the steel plate container for the generator is cracked from water freezing in it. The truck runs perfectly with the generator switched off. A new steel plate container will cost about $40.00. Before my casing cracked, I was getting 24-27 miles per gallon with the hydrogen generator working its magic. That is unheard of gas mileage in any truck. If you've never heard of the benefits of a hydrogen generator, please look it up. They are completely safe and will save you tons of money at the gas pump. Again, the truck has been running perfectly fine with only the Volo Fuel Enhancement Chip and no hydrogen generator for the last year. You will get at least 20 miles to the gallon with 89 octane. I only use Mobil 1 fully synthetic oil, which has been changed every 5000 miles. I had a full service at the Elizabethtown, KY Ford dealership last year where I got all new plugs, plug wires and all fluids changed. The tires are practically brand new. I purchased them in June, 2013 (they are 60,000 mile tires with just over 4,000 miles on them). I only drive this truck when I need to go to town for something. I walk to work, so the truck hardly gets any miles put on it. It is a 2004 model with just over 133,160 miles. Last year, I had Autosound of Elizabethtown install a Remote Started on the truck. It works perfectly.
 

There is no deferred maintenance on my truck.  It is in perfect running condition all the way around.  No Rust.  There are several hairline scratches and some small scuff marks around the body, but the paint is in very good condition in my opinion.  No replacement of any transfer case or differential fluids.  I just had the front Left side wheel bearing replaced Nov, 2013.  Both front brakes were replaced and the rotors were redone Nov, 2013.  Replace Front Right Wheel Bearing on 5/5/11.  Brand New MAXX-65N Battery on 8/13/13.  Remanufactured Alternator (P8499) on 8/9/13.

The EFIE computer's website is: http://voloperformance.com/  There you can read about the FS2 HHO Chip that I installed.

The HHO Kit is from: http://www.alternativempg.com/  There you can read about the HHO Kit that I installed.  I purchased the Fuel Cell, Reservoir Tank, and Installation Kit.  I purchased an amp meter and installed it myself.  I am skilled in electronics and you can inspect the installation yourself and see that it is a quality job.  In order to work, first, a new Fuel Cell will have to be purchased ($69.00 now on their website).  To run the unit, distilled water and either sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide (KOH) needs to be used.  I used only KOH which is a much better catalyst and it is clean.  I did not add alcohol to the fluid last season and the water in the fuel cell froze and cracked the acrylic.  I was getting 24 mpg with 89 test and 26 mpg with 93.

The only issue that I have with the truck is that sometimes the gear lever sticks in park and you have to shut off the truck, put it in neutral, restart it and put in gear. It works every time. It's not a transmission issue. I had the dealership look at it and they said that the wiring harness for the remote starter (which runs up the steering wheel wire harness) was pulling on the wire for the lever release mechanism. It only affects it sometimes, not all the time, and it does not impede your ability to start the truck. The interior of the truck is in very good condition, with normal seat wear. The arm rest cover is starting to peel back as you can see in my pictures. Otherwise, the interior is very nice. The truck is a gem and runs perfectly. Please call me and set up a time to come and take a test drive. The Kelly Blue Book for this car in the condition that it is in is $9600-$9900.

Nelson Piquet and Nigel Mansell revisit bitter F1 rivalry in... Ford Fusion campaign?

Wed, 23 Jan 2013

Formula One World Champions Nelson Piquet and Nigel Mansell haven't been on good terms since the 1986 season, when Piquet joined Mansell at the Williams team and Piquet spent the year privately fuming about not being granted the status of number one driver. Things only got worse from there - even though Piquet won the title the following year with Williams, still partnered with Mansell, the fuming was a lot less private.
They're back together after a 25-year silence, in the city of Porto Alegre, Brazil to drive the new Ford Fusion. Called "Fusion Grand Prix," both men get the new Ford sedan, prepped to their liking - but still street legal, we assume - for a race to decide... well, who is faster behind the wheel of a Fusion.
There will be four episodes, with the first two having already aired. The third episode comes on January 29 and the race happens February 5. You'll find two video episodes and a press release below, but note - because it's a campaign for Ford Brazil, Piquet's dialogue in the vids isn't translated, so hit the Closed Captioning button to hear his side of the smack talking.

Ford investing $500M in engine plant for 2.7L EcoBoost production

Sun, 30 Mar 2014

Ohio is a hot area for Ford at the moment with the announcement just a few weeks ago that production of the next-generation F-650/F-750 medium-duty trucks would move from Mexico to the Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, Ohio. Now, Ford is investing $500 million to hire 300 workers at its Lima Engine Plant in Lima, Ohio, to add production of the twin-turbo 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 for the 2015 F-150.
The latest investment will be used to add a new flexible engine assembly system and renovate 700,000 square feet of the plant for machining and assembly areas. The Lima factory already builds Ford's 3.5-liter and 3.7-liter Duratec V6 engines. The plant opened in 1957, and it's on track to build its 40 millionth engine later this year.
Ford claims that the 2.7-liter EcoBoost will offer V8 performance with better efficiency in the F-150. It comes standard with intelligent stop/start that doesn't activate when the truck is towing or in four-wheel drive, and it's made from a combination of compacted graphite iron and aluminum for low weight and high strength. The company says that V6 engines have already proven popular in the F-150 with 57 percent of trucks in 2014 being equipped with either the naturally aspirated 3.7-liter or turbocharged 3.5-liter EcoBoost engines.

Ford and GM link bonus checks to quality scores

Tue, 29 Apr 2014

The poor first quarter earnings of Ford and General Motors are having an effect all the way up the food chain. Both automakers struggled with recalls in the first three months of the year, and, according to The Detroit News, they have responded by increasing the percentage of bonuses tied to vehicle quality for salaried workers, including top executives.
GM announced that 25 percent of bonuses (up from 10 percent) for all salaried workers would be tied to its vehicle quality standards. The automaker revealed in its financial report that it spent $1.3 billion on recall-related repairs in the first quarter, and net income was down 86 percent.
Ford also increased the quality proportion of bonuses for about 26,000 salaried workers all the way up to CEO Alan Mulally from 10 percent to 20 percent. The company announced in its report that the amount paid out in warranty and recall claims was about $400 million higher than expected in the first quarter. Its net income fell 39 percent from the previous year. "The change reflects how critical quality is to our overall business," said spokesperson Todd Nissen speaking to Autoblog.
