2004 Ford F-250 Super Duty King Ranch Crew Cab Pickup 4-door 6.0l on 2040-cars
Navarre, Florida, United States
|
Let's start off with the story first. I bought this truck in May, 2014 mainly to see if I would like a diesel truck. I pull lots of stuff, car trailer and cars mostly, and wanted to see if this better fit my needs and it did. I knew the truck had been hit in the drivers side door area and had been repaired and inspected on 12/30/05. There was no frame damage and it required a door and rocker panel to repair. Good job as best I can tell.
All was well and good until we moved to Florida. It seems since it had a salvage title when it left Georgia and now a clean repaired title from MS, I can't get it titled and tagged. Georgia won't change the branding (no surprise there), MS won't go back and add salvage to the title and Florida won't add salvage to the title. All I can say if you live in MS, then you've got no problems, any other state please do your research and check with DMV. Please spend the time to look at CARFAX, it will give you an accurate history. Frankly, I'm tired of jumping through hoops with no results, so it's for sale. Now for the truck. Low mileage 110,024, all fluids and filters changed at Ford dealer, 5/28/14. Mileage was 107,356. At that time I was advised I needed a sensor in the water separator. It shows water all the time. They wanted nearly $250.00 to do it. I was going to do it once the fall temps arrived. So that job remains to be done. Overall nice truck. It's always had nice floor mats in it so carpets are good. Leather seats could use a good cleaning. There no rips or tears in the seats or carpets. All power items work as they should. This includes, brakes, steering, windows, seats, mirrors, etc. There is a trailer brake controller. There's also a satellite ready radio/cd. All windows have moderate tint and there is a sliding back glass. All glass is good. Truck has small lift with 35" tires. Wheels have spacers. If you turn the wheel all the way to lock, the tires rub the springs. There are manual locking hubs on front. There are 2" receiver hitches on front ant rear. Makes parking trailers and such in tight quarters a lot easier. There are also back up sensors. Engine is 6.0 Turbo Diesel that's had all the upgrades done to it to make it reliable, head bolts and coolers to name a few. Automatic tranny is flawless and works great in conjunction with cruise control. Tires are good. I would stay 80%+ tread. As for the exterior. It's nice, not perfect by any stretch but good. There are some scratches and chips consistent with this age truck. The tailgate has a peppering of dents where a chain broke and slammed into it. Works good and is useable as is but dents are there. Truck has lighted running boards and cab lights. Truck is rust free and functions as it should. That's about it. If you want any additional pictures let me know and I'll post them. If you have any questions please ask before bidding. $1000 deposit by Paypal within 24 hours of auction end. NO EXCEPTIONS!! Remaining due within 7 days. AGAIN, NO EXCEPTIONS!! Truck can remain for up to 30 days, but must be payed for regardless. If you have less than 10 feedback or any negative feedback, do not bid, I will cancel your bid. Thanks Wanted to add a couple of things. There are two gauges mounted on the drivers side door post. One is a boost gauge and works. The other is an exhaust gas temp gauge. It doesn't work because the bung has never been welded into the exhaust. It's in the truck box. The second item is a small crack in the grille that is pictured but I forgot to mention it. Also forgot to mention comes with a SCTFLASH programmer. It has three programs; economy, towing and performance. I keep it on towing because that fits for me. I've included a picture. Several have asked if this has always been a southern truck. Answer is yes and carfax will verify this. It left GA in 2005 and spent the rest of its time in the Smithville, Amory, and Columbus, MS areas. I've added pictures of the underside. Also the exhaust is a Borla system. Was on it when I got it. |

Automakers want to stop the EPA's fuel economy rules change, and why that's a shortsighted move
Tue, Dec 6 2016With a Trump Administration looming, the EPA moved quickly after the election to propose finalizing future fuel economy rules last week. The auto industry doesn't like that (surprise), and has started making moves to stop the EPA. Ford CEO Mark Fields said he wanted to lobby Trump to lower the standards, and now the Auto Alliance, a manufacturer group, is saying it will join the fight against cleaner cars. The Alliance represents 12 automakers: BMW, Fiat Chrysler, Ford, GM, Jaguar Land Rover, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mitsubishi, Porsche, Toyota, VW, and Volvo. Gloria Bergquist, a spokesperson for the Alliance, told Automotive News that the "EPA's sudden and controversial move to propose auto regulations eight months early - even after Congress warned agencies about taking such steps while political appointees were packing their bags - calls out for congressional action to pause this rulemaking until a thoughtful policy review can occur." The EPA was going to consider public comments through April 2017, but then said it would move the deadline to the end of December. That means that it can finalize the rules before President Obama leaves office. The director of public affairs for the Consumer Federation of America, Jack Gillis, said on a conference call with reporters last week when the EPA originally announced its decision that it is unlikely that President Trump will be able to roll back these changes. Gillis also said on the same call that any attempt by the automakers to prevent these changes would be history repeating itself. "These are the same companies that fought airbags, and now promoting the fact that every car has multiple airbags," he said. "These are the same companies that fought the crash-test program, and now are promoting the crash-test ratings published by the government. So, it's clear that they're misperceiving the needs of the American consumer." There are more reasons the Allliance's pushback is flawed. Carol Lee Rawn, the transportation program director for Ceres, said on that call that the automotive industry is a global one, and many automakers are moving to global platforms to help them meet strict fuel economy rules around the world.
The 2015 Ford Mustang is not so mellow in yellow
Tue, 14 Jan 2014When we first saw the 2015 Ford Mustang, much was made of its new, more expressive color palette, which includes the return of both yellow and orange in addition to a new grayish shade, Guard. At that time, we didn't have anything to look at but a few small scale models painted in the new colors - the only Mustangs on display were in Race Red.
For its auto show debut here at in the Motor City, Ford has trotted out a couple of as-yet-unseen shades, including the striking Triple Yellow shown above. The new shade marks a return to a paint color that enthusiasts have been clamoring for, and we must say, it looks excellent under the lights of Cobo Hall.
Stat wise, there are still a number of questions we have about the redesigned Mustang. None of the three engines have had official power figures published. The same goes for pricing information, although if any loose-lipped execs let something slip in Detroit, we'll be sure to let you know. Until then, have a look at the new Triple Yellow Mustang on display at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show.
Amazon looking to bring Kindle to your next car?
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Maybe so. The online retailer and digital media monolith recently announced the Amazon Cloud Player, an application for Ford Sync that allows users to stream media from their Amazon Cloud account directly to a Ford vehicle. This foray into automotive technology got the minds at Gigaom.com thinking about what could be next for Amazon. As Kevin Fitchard writes, the logical step is to make audio versions of your Kindle library selections available in your car. As he points out, Amazon has already laid the groundwork for such a move.
Amazon pulled the sheets back on Whispersync for Voice last year. The tech pairs ebooks with an Audible book for a small extra fee, allowing users to either read along with a narrator or switch between audio and text versions on command. Fitchard says it wouldn't be some great leap to apply the same principles to a car, where voice recognition software would allow users to pause or select chapters without ever taking their eyes off of the road.
It all sounds just fine to us, but Amazon hasn't said a thing about such a move. Still, we wouldn't be surprised to see the company come down this road in the near future just the same.
