I have a 2000 Ford F-150 Lightning with 118,000 miles on it. It is in Excellent condition. It has a brand new transmission with 2600 stall converter. It was built by Transmission Specialists in machesney park, IL. The transmission has high performance Sonnax clutches and band as well as a shift kit. The 4R100transmission cost over $3k. Yes, I have the reciept. According to dealer records, the engine was changed in 2004, so in a very conservative estimate, the engine has about 90,000 miles on it. The spark plugs were just changed. There is a scratch above the driver's rear wheel opening and a 1 inch hole in the bumper that somthing poked through, it has touch up paint on it to keep from rusting. Otherwise, it is a rust free vehicle.
The following modifications include
4lb lower pulley
2.9" upper pulley--together make about 16lb of boost
C&L Intake
ported throttle body
C&L upper plenum
Ported supercharger
Lightning Force Performance intercooler
Aafco heat exchanger with fans
Accel coils (minus one that crapped out, I put a stocker on there and it comes with the other 7 stock coils)
L&S Oil Separator
Kooks long tube stainless steel headers
Catco high flow stainless catalytic converters
Magnaflow stainless steel exhaust
Hellwig front and rear sway bars
All steering components are new and the truck has a fresh alignment as well as new shocks all around
New Powerslot slotted rotors and ceramic pads and just new pads on the back, brake system was just bled
The rear end has fresh fluid and a T/A girdle
Covering the bed is a factory tonneau cover
The bedliner is a Bedrug brand
The EGR is deleted, so the Check engine light is on
Also comes with an SCT tuner
The battery has been relocated to right in front of the rear bumper, yes, it is secure there.
For those of you for numbers, it's stock from the factory with 360HP, so add 6lb of boost and some other modifications and it probably comes a little over 400. The Nitto drag radials prevent the tires from going up in smoke from a standstill. No, I haven't beat the hell out of this truck, but anyone who tells you their 400hp vehicle was "babied" is a liar. No one buys cars or trucks like this just to piddle around. No, it doesn't smoke, no I didn't do burnouts with it all day, yes, it's been leaned on. Yes, it starts, runs, and drives well reliably.
Call, text, or email for any questions
thanks,
Dan

Truckmakers squabbling over who can sell Jimmy Fallon a pickup
Sat, 08 Mar 2014Snagging a celebrity endorsement is a big deal for automakers, as evidenced by the recent efforts of the Detroit Three to try and woo The Tonight Show's newest host, Jimmy Fallon, into one of their trucks.
After announcing during Wednesday night's show that he was in the market for a pickup truck, Fallon set off a firestorm of efforts on Twitter, with both Ford and Chevrolet petitioning the funnyman to test out a truck. According to Ad Age, Ford recommended the King Ranch edition of its next-generation F-150 while the show was still airing. Chevy, meanwhile, waited until the next morning to pitch a Silverado to Fallon.
The winner of this social media feeding frenzy, though, was Ram. Promoting a variation of its "Guts, Glory, Ram" tagline, the Auburn Hills-based manufacturer created the hashtag #GUTSGLORYFallon. It even went so far as to park a Ram 1500 outside 30 Rockefeller Center in New York, where The Tonight Show is filmed. On the back of the Ram sat a sign, reading "Big enough, Jimmy? Test it out," referencing a joke from the Wednesday show.
Ford readying dozen+ Mustang models for SEMA
Wed, 22 Oct 2014Ford is unsurprisingly bringing a herd of its new 2015 Mustang models to next month's SEMA show in Las Vegas. Over a dozen of them are arriving from top aftermarket outfits like Galpin Auto Sports, Steeda, Roush and others. The Blue Oval isn't just shining a spotlight on the V8 model, though. The new EcoBoost 2.3-liter version with 310 horsepower and 320 pound-feet of torque is also getting its time in the sun.
Among the shined-up ponies will be a showcar helping Galpin celebrate the Mustang's golden anniversary, with the car is covered in the precious metal. The black paint over the body has gold flecks in it, and the wheels, side sills, brake calipers and badges all match, as well. However, it takes more than something shiny to truly impress at SEMA, and Galpin's Mustang also packs a Whipple supercharger for the 5.0-liter V8, boosting the bottom line to 725 horsepower. Take that, Hellcat. There's even a window in the hood to look through, not unlike a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1. The coupe also wears new headlights with LED turn signals that activate in sequence, just like the taillights, and the interior features black-and-gold Recaro seats.
Also set for its SEMA debut is an MRT showcar that takes the EcoBoost Mustang for a gallop with its TKO treatment. The black and orange two-tone car has been designed to incorporate select road racing elements. Mechanical upgrades include 14-inch brake rotors with new ducts, a Vortech air-to-air intercooler and an Air Lift suspension. The Mustang also shows off the company's products for added style and performance including a hood with integrated heat extractors and a unique front splitter.
Volkswagen could outsell GM in China for the first time in nine years
Fri, 27 Dec 2013As of the end of November, Volkswagen had sold 70,000 more cars than General Motors in China in 2013, making it appear inevitable that VW will outsell GM there. The feat would return the German brand to the top of chart in China for the first time in nine years, but even the second-place getter won't be complaining too loudly: both automakers sold more than three million vehicles in a market pegged to hit 16 million sales this year.
Volkswagen said it could have sold more cars if it had had more production capacity in China. The arrival of a new-to-China Audi A4, a China-built A3 sedan, the VW Bora and Skoda Octavia, as well as an $18.2-billion-euro investment in the country to construct new factories, means VW should see its numbers grow in 2014. GM's lineup is expanding next year, too, adding four Chevrolet nameplates and two vehicles to its Baojun brand as it tries to get to five million in sales by 2015.
Among other automakers, Ford benefited from good product and woes for Japanese automakers over a territorial dispute with China, outselling Toyota by almost 32,000 units through the end of November. The Ford Focus is China's best-selling vehicle so far this year.
