This 95 F-150 is a Mark III conversion, Flareside extended cab.  The truck has been in the family for 11 years and has been my shop truck for many years.  There have been no accidents and no major repairs since we bought the truck with 40k miles on it.  This truck is very reliable, has ice cold A/C, leather interior (with wear and some tearing as you see in pictures), tow package, power rear sliding window, cruise control (works), automatic with overdrive, powdercoated 40 Ford style steel wheels (Wheel Vintiques), 34 Ford V-8 centers, stainless trim rings, BF Goodrich Radial T/A's (285/70/15 rears on 10's; 225/60/15 fronts on 8's) with 3k miles on them, all new brakes front to rear (rotors, pads, drums, shoes, hardware), new front wheel bearings, new starter last year, trans serviced at 150k miles (flush/filter/fill), and tune up at 150k (cap/rotor/plugs/wires/throttle body replaced/egr valve replaced/fuel pressure regulator replaced/new fuel filter).  The truck is lowered 2" in the rear and 1 1/2" in the front (lowered coil springs).  Has an incredible rake.

I have used Mobil-1 10w-30 synthetic since 75k miles, changed every 5k miles.  Differential oil was changed to synthetic (Valvoline) at 150k miles.  Rear showed no visible wear or alignment issues, rear bearings are excellent, diff does not leak.

The pinstriping is done by hand and was done by the late Gary Wills, "The Pioneer", and has been on the truck for many years.  I will not be removing the pintstriping as part of this sale.  Getting such a good truck, this cheap, if you don't like it...your elbow grease is free and have at it.  The lettering is for my shop, so this is a REAL "shop truck", used daily to advertise my shop, pick up parts, tow the show trailer (1700 lbs), tow and haul finished and project bikes...you name it, it did it and it never complained.

The truck does have scratches and obvious signs of use...no, wait, "This truck has great patina!"  No rust issues, solid frame, and excellent drivetrain.  Don't let the miles fool you.  This truck has been well taken care of...and driven only around 10k miles per year its entire life (think about that...my 08 Mazda has 120k on it already!).  This truck has a lot of life left and makes a cool statement every mile.

There are issues, however.  The leather seats show wear and there are several tears and pulls (rear seat is perfect).  The driveline has a mild vibration that appears around 25mph and disappears around 55mph.  I have had the tires re-balanced twice, but the issue has not corrected.  The driveshaft does not show to have lost any balance weights...so, the next step is to check the ball joints, which I have not done.  The vibration does not affect performance and is mild...but it is noticeable.  The front end is correctly aligned and that is not the issue.The driver side power window "up" limiter is gone.  So, you have to "stop" the window by letting off the switch when it gets to the top.  The gear drive for "close" on the power rear window is stripped.  You can open via the switch, then push closed.  The heater is weak, but the A/C is ice cold (the "trap door" does not always move to the heat side/standard problem in Fords).

I have a clear Tennessee title in my name.  I accept PayPal, cash, and credit cards (in any case, the truck will not be release until ALL funds are clear and in my hands).  If you ahve any questions, please use eBay's message function.  I will respond.

Of course, I make no guarantees or warranties of any kind.  This truck has been nice to me for many years.  It may not like you.  It may break down...or, it may run for longer than you need it.  In any event, once you buy it, it is yours...no whining, no takie-backsies.

Ford recalling nearly 700k Escape CUVs, C-Max hybrids over two separate safety issues

Fri, 09 May 2014

Poor Escape. Ever since its launch in 2012, Ford's small CUV has been the subject of many, many, many recalls. And today, The Detroit News is reporting that Ford is adding two more recalls to the 2013-14 model year Escape's permanent record, one of them also involves the C-Max hybrid hatchback.
The first recall, covering 692,500 Escape and C-Max vehicles, is due to a software glitch that could cause the airbags - specifically, the safety canopy - to not deploy in a timely fashion during rollover crashes. According to the News, Ford says no crashes or injuries have been reported in relation to this problem.
The second recall, covering 692,700 Escapes, is related to the door handles. The News reports that the exterior door handles could open while the vehicle is in motion, and could also fail to latch properly. Once again, no crashes or injuries have occurred because of this. The National Highway Safety Traffic Administration has not issued an official notice on either recall as of this writing.

2015 Hennessey VelociRaptor 600 fills an F-150 Raptor-sized void

Tue, Dec 16 2014

Ford is rumored to possibly debut a new F-150 Raptor at the upcoming Detroit Auto Show in January, but whether that's the case or not, Hennessey Performance is ready to fill the muscle truck niche now with its latest VelociRaptor 600 Supercharged based on the 2015 F-150. The fantastically named VelociRaptor package has been available on the regular Raptor for the past few years, taking power up to 600 horsepower or more, depending on what the buyer desired. With the latest one, the performance truck is now based on the aluminum-bodied F-150, specifically the FX4 Super Crew model with the 5.0-liter V8. "Having Ford's world-class new truck design, with a weight savings of nearly 700 pounds, our VelociRaptor 600 Supercharged will have an even greater level of performance and driving excitement," said founder John Hennessey in the company's release. The heart of VelociRaptor is the Roots-type supercharger running at 8 psi on the V8. With help from upgraded fuel injectors, a proprietary engine management system and stainless steel exhaust, it boosts grunt from a stock 385 horsepower to over 600 hp. To make sure that power gets to the road, the package also includes 33-inch BFGoodrich mounted on 17-inch Hennessey wheels. For buyers in need of more, the company offers optional parts including an off-road coilover suspension, different front and rear bumpers, a winch, LED light bar and Brembo brakes. Speaking to Autoblog, Hennessey said he feels confident that the latest VelociRaptor could do high-four-second sprints to 60 miles per hour, compared to the outgoing model in the low-five-second range. Prices for the VelociRaptor start at $73,500, which includes the donor F-150, and orders are open now. Actual deliveries should start by March at the latest, according to Hennessey. The company also plans to offer a similar package for EcoBoost F-150s later. Scroll down to read the full announcement about this muscle truck. Introducing the 2015 Hennessey VelociRaptor 600 Supercharged Texas tuner adds power and improved off-road capabilities to Ford's all-new aluminum bodied pick-up trucks December 16, 2014-For immediate release Sealy, Texas-For the past five years, Ford F-150 truck enthusiasts have had the special opportunity to own the SVT Raptor. With 411 hp and baja pre-runner capabilities, the Ford Raptor was one of the most capable 4x4's ever built. Sadly, Ford Raptor production has ended, leaving a void in the market for 2015.

Focus ST diesel variant coming, just don't look for it here

Fri, 07 Mar 2014

A few years back, Volkswagen made some waves when it announced the Golf GTD - a diesel-powered car that, aside from its ultra-efficient, ultra-torquey engine, was identical to the gas-powered GTI. That meant cosseting sport seats, larger wheels, sportier suspension, larger brakes and a body kit that made the GTD indistinguishable from the GTI, except for the three little letters on the back and in the grille.
Now, Ford is looking to replicate VW's success, with a diesel version of the Focus ST. According to Motor Trend, the diesel-powered ST will use a 2.0-liter, 182-horsepower four-cylinder. With an unspecified amount of torque on offer (we'd guess around 280 pound-feet), the diesel hot hatch should hit 62 miles per hour in about eight seconds.
The report, which originally comes from Auto Express, claims the ST Diesel was confirmed by Ford Chief Marketing Officer Mark Fields during this week's Geneva Motor Show. Not surprisingly, it doesn't appear there are any plans to bring a diesel-powered Focus of any kind to the US, let alone one that uses the suspension, steering and other items from the ST. Of course, if there's an official confirmation from Ford, we'll be sure to report on it.
