This 2008 Ford F150 is in excellent mechanical condition with 98,000 miles. The aesthetics are pleasing as well as I've received many compliments on the truck. Extras include, Edge programmable performance chip which has built in code reader should anything go wrong with the truck, flowmaster cat back muffler system, Accel super coils, Bosch platinum plus 4 plugs that were just installed for the 100k service, K&N cold air intake system, poweraid throttle body spacer with helix bore, and a evermaxx battery that is only 2 years old. The hoses are new, but I would replace the serpentine belt at 100k. Items left to service for 100k are differential fluid to change, serpentine belt to change, and universal joints are starting to get some play in them, so I would change those too. The transmission has been serviced, I've used synthetic Mobile One oil since the first oil change and most of the service was performed by me. The BF Goodrich All Terrain Tires still have plenty of life in them. They are the load range E tires with a 10 ply strength rating and an actual 3 ply sidewall, so they are a RUGGED tire. The tires will hold up to 80 PSI for towing, but I run 38-40 PSI around town. The truck also has a brake controller for electric trailer brakes. The windows are tinted, there is a tool box on the back, rhino liner in the bed, and I recently did a two tone off-road paint scheme with herculiner on the bottom half of the truck for a rugged two tone look. Truck runs great, sounds great, and will pull about 8k pounds with no problems (my camper weighed 5k loaded). Transmission was flushed 3 times during its life and at 100k I would recommend replacing the filter and draining torque converter. I am the original owner and have the original paperwork and manual. This is a non-smoker, no pets, and no rust truck which was purchased and remained in SC during its entire life since purchased new here in SC. Truck also has a hidden hitch brand trailer hitch as you can see in the photos. Everything works. Air conditioning, CD player with MP3 and external audio input, all work great. Truck is reliable and can be driver anywhere from here. If you need to fly in to pick it up, you can rest assured it has been taken care of and will be a reliable truck for years to come. The fuel mileage on these, especially after engine upgrades is not that great in my opinion. This truck gets 11-12 mpg around town and will not get more than 18 hwy. With that said it runs very very impressively smooth on the highway and if you're not careful, you'll be cruising easily at 90-100mph if you tend to have a heavy foot. I am selling the truck as my house if for sale and I am moving, and I no longer have a camper to pull or ATVs to pull. This would be a great truck at a great price. You'll not find one on a dealer lot in this good of condition at this price.

Ford, Chrysler and Mazda expand scope of Takata airbag recalls
Fri, Dec 5 2014The scope of the Takata airbag inflator recall is ballooning once again across the United States. Where Honda has elected to take its driver-side airbag campaign nationwide, Chrysler Group and Ford have now announced expanded regional actions to cover some passenger-side airbag inflators. Mazda is adding more regions, as well. For Chrysler Group, the campaign covers the inflators on 149,150 examples of the 2003-model-year Ram 1500, 2500 and 3500 pickups. The recall is limited to vehicles sold or ever registered in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas and the territories of American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, Saipan, and the Virgin Islands. The company will begin notifying affected customers on January 19. According to Chrysler's announcement of the action, the passenger side inflators in these trucks "are of a type that is not used in any of the other vehicles affected by Chrysler Group's regional field action." The automaker says that it's not aware of any actual failures or accidents in these pickups and even claims there are no "observed failures in laboratory testing of its airbag modules." The company is continuing to study the problem, though. Ford is taking a similar step by issuing a recall of inflators for 38,500 examples of the 2004-2005 Ranger and 2005-2006 Ford GT. The campaign only affects vehicles originally sold or ever registered in Florida, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands. Certain zip codes of Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Guam, Saipan and American Samoa are also covered. There's already precedent for passenger-side airbags to be covered under the Takata inflator recall. When many automakers announced campaigns in June, BMW, Chrysler, Ford, Honda, Mazda, Nissan and Toyota all included that side in some of their repairs. Subaru subsequently did, as well. In addition, Mazda is expanding the scope of its recall to add Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, Saipan, Guam, American Samoa, US Virgin Islands, Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas to the affected areas. The company estimates that it has a total of 86,773 vehicles in need of repair. Mazda is also teaming with Toyota to begin independent testing of the Takata inflators. Scroll down to read all of the automakers' announcements of these newly expanded recalls. Statement: Air-Bag Inflators December 3, 2014 , Auburn Hills, Mich.
Ford tops mid-year ranking of brands in the US
Thu, 18 Jul 2013YouGov's mid-year Brand Index rankings of America's best perceived brands has been released, and Ford has found its way to the top. The Dearborn, Michigan based manufacturer beat out online shopping giant Amazon, The History Channel, and home improvement superstore Lowe's, to take the top spot.
Ford jumped from sixth overall in 2012 to first for 2013, but those that have been watching these rankings shouldn't be hugely surprised. Ford was rated the best perceived automotive manufacturer by the same organization last year. The Blue Oval's success on the overall brand rankings is made all the more impressive by the complete lack of other automakers on the list.
YouGov (that is, survey respondents) cited Ford's first quarter of 2013 business, which saw an increase in market share and the best earnings recorded in over 10 years. Successfully launching the Focus and Fusion (pictured) and keeping them fresh in the minds of consumers has also contributed to Ford's best overall score.
Ford jumps back in the water with marinized 6.2L V8
Wed, 06 Nov 2013Nameplates like the Mercury Mariner and Lincoln Navigator aside, Ford hasn't offered a marine engine in over two decades. But through a new partnership with one of the biggest names in the business, the Dearborn-based automaker is dipping its proverbial toes back in the water.
Announced yesterday at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas, the new partnership between Ford Component Sales and Indmar Marine Engines will see the 6.2-liter V8 from the F-150 SVT Raptor and F-Series Super Duty marinized for use in boats.
The largest privately owned inboard gasoline marine engine manufacturer in the world, Indmar has been in the business for 43 years, and figures the Ford V8 will be just what watersport enthusiasts are looking for to tow waterskiers and wakeboarders to their hearts' content.
