LOW RESERVE

This F150 belongs to my son. He is the second owner purchasing it from a neighbor who leased it from Ford.

When my son purchased the truck he was working as a carpenter and this was his daily driver. That job is gone and he now has a family and the poor truck just sits and sits. His current job uses a furnished vehicle.

Good News:

The truck starts every time, uses no or little oil, the AC is cold and the Heater is hot. The 4wd works and the automatic trans shifts smoothly.  Flow through exhaust was installed by the first owner.

The miles are 94740

The battery was new in 2012.

All 4 tires were replaced together and have less than 1000 miles on them.

The brakes were worked on in 2012 and brake lines were replaced. They still seem spongy.

The bed liner shown and the tool cross box shown go with the deal. Adam also has a pair of Delta 6 foot carpenter boxes he will let go with the deal. They are diamond plate also. Contact him if you are interested.

Both front fenders look great. But those are the only panels on the truck that do not need body work. This truck has never been wrecked and never been to a body shop.

If you have questions feel free to contact Adam at 219-608-2541.

We live in an area where buses will bring you to us from the two large airports in Chicago. Let us know if you need help finding us. Two major interstates, I80/I90 and I94 go through our town.

We have more pictures not shown. I can email them to you. We ran out of ebay room before I got the interior pictures loaded. Also, Adam sent me pictures of the long delta tool boxes.

Ford recalls 600,000 older-model sedans for braking issue

Fri, Dec 20 2019

Ford is recalling 600,166 older-model Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles over an issue that could affect braking and increase the risk of a crash. The safety recall covers certain Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan and Lincoln MKZ sedans from the 2006 through 2010 model years that were built at Ford’s Hermosillo Assembly Plant in Mexico between Feb. 22, 2006, and July 15, 2009. Ford says a valve that is normally closed inside the hydraulic control unit may get stuck in the open position or be slow to close, which could make it harder to engage the brakes and increase risk of a crash. Ford says itÂ’s aware of 15 reports of accidents and two injuries possibly related to the issue. Dealers will inspect the hydraulic control unit for signs of the problem and replace it, if necessary. The dealers will pressure-flush the system with brake fluid and replace the reservoir cap with a new one. Ford is also issuing a small recall of 33 of its 2020 F-150 trucks in the U.S. and 51 in Canada over potentially damaged spare tires. It says the bead area on the tires may have been damaged when it was mounted onto the wheel assembly, leaving it vulnerable to corrosion, separation of the bead wire and ultimately a rapid loss of air pressure and detachment from the wheel. Dealers will replace the spare tire. Affected vehicles were built at the Dearborn Truck Plant from Nov. 10-21 of this year.

Ford debuts Fusion NASCAR racer that edges closer to stock [w/video]

Wed, 20 Feb 2013

The sixth-generation NASCAR Sprint Cup racecar, which will make its competition debut at the 2013 Daytona 500 this weekend, marks the closest thing to a "stock car" that the sport has seen in more than 20 years. No longer using just stickers to distinguish the different brands, the image above shows the lengths NASCAR and automakers went in order to create a racecar design that more closely resembles the individual cars they represent.
Ford, one of the more open and vocal OEMs regarding the Gen6 car's development, is giving us a closer look at its racing version of the Fusion with a pretty revealing side-by-side comparison with last years' racer (click above for an expanded view). Aside from the more realistic front end and production-like body lines, the overall shape, dimensions and proportions have also been designed to give the racecar a more stock appearance. Most of the new racer was designed by the Ford Design Center, which the automaker says was the first time it has been so involved in the design process since the 1960s. Of course, one area the Sprint Cup Fusion really differs from the production Fusion is its Ford Racing 5.8-liter V8 producing around 850 hp. Can you say Fusion SVT?
Scroll down for a quick video from Ford Racing showing a production Fusion morph into a Cup car.
