Jackson, Mississippi, United States

1979 Ford F-100. This is a good solid truck. It has a built big block 460 with Edelbrock aluminum intake and 4 barrel carb plus a MSD electronic ignition with headers and a nice dual exhaust. In addition to having a flex fan for cooling this truck also has an auxiliary electronic cooling fan just in case. The truck is an automatic and has a custom floor shift. This truck runs good and sounds great. It's been built to cruise and it's never been raced. It has always been adult driven and well maintained.  The odometer reads 79,794 but the prior owner said the engine and transmission has less than 5,000 miles on them.  It is a rear wheel drive (not a 4x4).  I have many people coming out next weekend with intent to purchase.  So this listing will be posted but if payment is not received by the weekend, first person with the money gets the truck. 

The truck gets a lot of attention, mostly due to the custom paint. It's a beautiful "House of Kolor" shade of orange called Sunset Orange Metallic. The paint was done several years ago but still looks great. It has some very fine lavender pearl metallic chips that really make the color pop in the sunlight. It is a nicely done, modern, base coat clear coat paint job that will look great for many more years. The exterior chrome is in good condition. It has custom side mirrors, bed rails, spray in bed liner, and a large low-profile diamond plate tool box. The custom wheels are in great condition, as are the tires, and they accent the truck nicely.

The interior of the truck is as nice as the rest of it. The original seats have been replaced with a more comfortable, modern seat. It is a soft and supple tan leather seat with a fold down console. The truck has a modern JVC CD/MP3 player and upgraded speakers in the doors. The dash looks great and has a set of more-accurate-than-stock, aftermarket gauges for temperature, oil pressure, and voltage. The heater works great. This truck did not originally have AC, but there are affordable kits available if that is something you feel you would need to do.

This truck really doesn't need anything. It has sufficient power to pull a trailer or a boat with ease. I would feel confident driving this truck anywhere. It is very reliable as well as being very fun to cruise around in. We don't have to sell it but we would like to thin out our pack of cars and make a little room in the driveway since we recently bought a new truck, we decided we could let this one go. We are asking $9900 for the truck.   The truck is not perfect.  It is over 30 years old, so do not expect a trailer queen.  It is however solid, sound, and a great price for a beautiful and dependable truck!  It was my daily driver for the last year.

If you would like more pictures or a copy of the appraisal, please text or email.  VIN: F10BNFB3246.

2013 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year finalists announced [w/poll]

Wed, 12 Dec 2012

2012 is almost in the books and automakers are spending December gearing up for the 2013 auto show season, which tips off next month at the Detroit Auto Show. Traditionally, the latter opens up with the announcement of the North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards, and this year figures to be no different.
But up until this moment, we didn't know which six vehicles would be parked ahead of the stage as finalists, with executives and engineers waiting for the winners to be disclosed. Whittled down from October's "short list" of nominees (11 cars and 10 truck/utility vehicles), the finalists are as follows:

2014 Ford Fiesta gets fuel economy bump to 41 mpg

Fri, 07 Jun 2013

The 2014 Ford Fiesta is in showrooms now with refreshed styling and new performance ST model, but it's what isn't yet available that should help the Fiesta stand out from the growing crowd of subcompacts. Aside from the new 1.0-liter EcoBoost model coming later this year, Ford recently told us that a new Fiesta SFE trim level is on the way that should put the updated Fiesta at the top of its class for fuel economy.
The new Fiesta SFE will hit an estimated 41 miles per gallon on the highway when equipped with the six-speed automatic transmission. The current listing on fueleconomy.gov shows the 2014 Fiesta getting up to 29 mpg city and 39 highway, but the SFE will get minor aero tuning and a recalibrated engine controller to help bump the highway figure past rivals like the Chevrolet Sonic and Nissan Versa - both of which top out at 40-mpg highway. There's still no word as to when the small 1.0-liter EcoBoost will show in the US, but Ford has indicated that engine's fuel economy isn't expected to be released until October.

Ford to announce Mulally retirement, Fields CEO as early as May 1

Mon, 21 Apr 2014

Ford CEO Alan Mulally may be about to announce his long-rumored retirement from the Blue Oval, according to a pair of insiders who spoke to Bloomberg. An official statement on the succession could arrive as soon as May 1. Chief Operating Officer Mark Fields is rumored to step up as the new CEO. The company is said to be readying the announcement soon to ensure an orderly transition of power, according to the insiders.
Mulally's retirement from Ford has been a hot topic for a while. He was seriously rumored last year to be leaving the automaker to take over as the CEO of Microsoft. The board even said at one point that it was okay with them if he stepped down early. However, the CEO maintained he would stay with the business through at least the end of 2014. Fields has been rumored as a frontrunner to take over the top spot at the company since he was promoted to COO.
For the moment, Ford isn't officially confirming any of these plans. "We don't comment on speculation. We do have succession plans in place for our key leadership. We take succession planning very seriously," said Susan Krusel, Ford Global News Manager, to Autoblog.
