This truck had been a dependable daily driver locally and on frequent trips to Georgia up until it was no longer needed in June 2012. It hasn't been driven regularly since then. I bought the truck used eleven years ago. The radio, A/C and heater work good. The doors glass and rear window sliding glass work fine. The tires are larger than stock 31 x 10.50 R15 LT BF Goodrich Radial Long Trails, and they have plenty of miles left on them. The spare tire is a never used LT235/75R15. The engine has a lot of miles on it but doesn't smoke or use an excessive amount of oil. The transmission has been serviced regularly over the years. This is an old truck that's starting to show it's age, though, so it's being sold as is. The tail gate is from an F-350 XLT that had the trim removed, which is why there are mounting holes visible. There's a little rust over each rear quarter panel wheel well, and on the driver's side front quarter panel behind the tire. Both front headlight assemblies collect condensation inside, but it doesn't affect operation. The rear brakes and wheel cylinders were replaced a month ago. This week the A/C was serviced, the oil and filter were changed, the tires were rotated, and the two-year emissions inspection and the one-year safety inspection (Virginia) were successfully renewed. 


I intend to post and answer all questions about this truck. 

(Update: I added a picture of the bed.)

(Update 2: There's mention in the vehicle check report about a duplicate title and a lien. I don't know what occurred before I bought the truck, but I have a clear title issued in 2004 that indicates no liens. There's also mention about the emissions inspection. I have the Mar 17, 2013 two-year pass certificate and it's loaded electronically in the state system, though it may have been too recent to appear on the vehicle check report. I can provide e-mailed scans of both the title and emissions paperwork, though for identity protection reasons, some personal information would be blacked out.)

Ford UK exec says EVs are a good way to lose a fortune

Wed, Mar 19 2014

Stateside, Ford execs are quick to point out the automaker's expansion in the plug-in sector. And despite a minimal presence in the pure EV space, the Blue Oval has been promoting its plug-in vehicles as part of an overall effort to boost fleetwide fuel economy. Too bad the company's UK chief didn't get the memo. There's "no point in us getting behind [EVs] and losing a fortune" - Ford's Mark Ovenden Mark Ovenden, speaking rather frankly at the Geneva Motor Show recently, said he didn't have real high hopes for substantial electric-vehicle adoption and said the company's money was better spent on smaller gas- and diesel-powered engines, the UK's Daily Mail says. Ovenden said of EV development that there was "no point in us getting behind it and losing a fortune," adding that his goal was to have variants of Ford's EcoBoost engine in 40 percent of the company's vehicles. Ford has about a 15-percent market share in the UK. The UK doesn't appear to be as kind to the EV as the US. Nissan last year cut the price of its all-electric Leaf there last year by about $4,000, while the company rolled out a promotion for the Leaf late last year, including allowing Leaf drivers to borrow a gas- or diesel-powered Nissan for free for as long as two weeks a year during the first three years of Leaf ownership. In the US, Ford sold just 229 Ford Focus Electrics during the first two months of the year after moving 1,738 units in 2013.

This woman owns the first Ford Mustang sold in the US

Wed, 11 Dec 2013

As Ford celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Mustang with the unveiling of the all-new sixth-gen design, one Chicago women can lay claim to a piece of Mustang history. According to CBS Chicago, Gail Wise was the first person in the US to buy a Mustang in 1964, and she did so two days before the car was even unveiled to the public.
Wise, then a 22-year-old teacher, went into the Chicago Ford dealership wanting to buy a convertible, and a salesperson ushered her over to car covered by a tarp. That car was a baby blue Mustang convertible, which she still owns today - along with the documentation. After sitting for almost 30 years and undergoing a full restoration, the car now looks to be in original condition. The report says that this $3,400 purchase could be worth anywhere between $100,000 and $250,000. While this worked out well for Mrs. Wise, we wouldn't recommend anyone going into a dark, back room of a dealership hoping to get a jump on the purchase of a 2015 Mustang.
