I've had the truck for about 3 years and the interior is in great shape, new vinyl floormat, everything looks good and is clean. The truck starts and runs good. New Goodyear truck tires, less than 2 years old with less than 5,000 miles on them. Updated engine components: chrome valve cover, Ofenhauser intake manifold with Edelbrock 4 barrel carb and Headman headers with new dual exhaust and mufflers. The C6 Transmission has a deep chrome pan on it and shifts smootly. Well maintained truck with less than 71,000 original miles. In line 300 Cu in (4.9L) engine with 3 speed automatic C-6 Transmission and Ford 9" rear differential. Included in the sale is the paint for repainting the truck to the original factory colors and a new, in the box, sliding rear window and gasket, new rear tail light lenses, and newly chromed letters for the hood (F-O-R-D), and new chrome exterior door handles. I've already replaced the front bumper and headlight bezels, and the grill has been repainted. The bed is in great shape and doesn't appear to have been used much. The truck had a camper top bolted down on it when I bought it and I have the receipt where it was purchased and installed when the truck was a couple of weeks old, so the bed never saw rain until I bought it and it appears to have always had a rubber bed mat to protect it. The truck is equiped with a heavy duty receiver hitch (2" sq stock).
The original owner was stationed at Red Stone Arsenal in Alabama and had the truck for about 20 years and 40,000 miles. I bought it from a retired sheriff in middle Tennessee who was mainly using it to tow his pontoon boat to the lake and haul some hay bales around his farm. I've used the truck to commute back and forth to work when the weather was bad, otherwise I ride a motorcyle. I also use it to pick up things from Lowe's or Home Depot on the weekends, but I've only put about 10,000 miles on it in the three years I've had it.
This truck has had a fairly easy life, good maintenance and with a little paint and body work could be a showroom classic. I've taken a new job out of town and won't have time to work on the finishing touches so I'm letting it go. My loss is your gain.
The winning bidder will need to place a deposit by Paypal within 24 hours of $1000 and pick up the truck and bring final payment in cash within a week of winning. The title is clear and in my possession.

Ford To Unveil Solar Hybrid Concept Car At CES

Thu, Jan 2 2014

Ford plans to unveil at this month's International CES gadget show a solar-powered concept car that offers the same performance as a plug-in hybrid but without the need for a plug. The C-Max Solar Energi Concept car uses a gasoline engine combined with a gizmo that acts like a magnifying glass to concentrate the sun's rays on the vehicle's roof-mounted solar panels. The automaker says the vehicle's estimated combined city-highway mileage is 100 miles (160 kilometers) per gallon. The U.S. auto maker says that by using solar power instead of an electric plug, a typical owner will reduce their annual greenhouse gas emissions by four metric tons. The company says it sold about 85,000 hybrid or electric vehicles in 2013, including 6,300 units of its C-Max Energi plug-in hybrid. The sun-ray concentrator was developed by researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology and uses what is known as a Fresnel lens, which concentrates light but can be made thinner than a conventional lens. A full day of sunshine is equivalent to a four-hour battery charge, or 8 kilowatts, Ford says. On a full charge, it should have a range of 620 miles (997 kilometers), the same as the C-Max Energi. The concept car also comes with a plug-in port for standard electric charging. Ford says that 75 percent of all trips made by an average driver could be powered by the sun. After showing off the concept car at the convention in Las Vegas Jan. 7-10, Ford Motor Co. says that it will test the vehicle with institute researchers to determine if it's feasible for mass production.

Verizon buys Telogis in connected vehicle market push

Wed, Jun 22 2016

(Note/disclaimer: We are owned by Verizon, by way of AOL. This gives us no inside track whatsoever when it comes to news.) With a lot of tech companies and automakers staking their claims in the connected car space, now there are signs that others are looking to move in, too. Today, telecoms giant Verizon announced that it is acquiring Telogis, a California-based company that develops cloud-based solutions for mobile workforces, and specifically telematics, compliance and navigation software used by Ford, Volvo, GM and other car companies, as well as Apple and AT&T. Financial terms of the deal have not been disclosed, although we'll try to find out. Considering that Verizon in 2015 reported full-year revenues of $131.6 billion, the price would have to be very high to be considered "material" and may not be made public for some time, if ever. Telogis in its time as a startup raised a substantial amount of money, just over $126 million in all, including $93 million in 2013, supposedly ahead of an IPO, all from Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers. Back in 2013 when KPCB made its investment (which was the first from a VC firm in the company), Telogis told TechCrunch it was profitable and forecasting revenues of $100 million annually for the year. It's not clear what size those revenues are now, but if it was on the same growth trajectory as before the funding, sales would be around $150 million annually, with profitability, at the moment. Other investors include some very notable strategics: the investment arm of General Motors, and Fontinalis Partners, which also invests in Lyft and was co-founded by Bill Ford, the executive chairman of the Ford Motor Company. Before the acquisition, Verizon actually had a business in fleet management and telematics; in fact, the two companies competed against each other for business from the trucking and other industries. Verizon Telematics, as the business is called, is active in 40 countries. But in a way, Verizon buying Telogis is a sign that the latter may have proved to be the more superior, and the one with the key customer deals.
