Ford F350 Dually 7.3 Liter Turbo Diesel on 2040-cars
Boyce, Virginia, United States
|
The good:
Awesome running 1993 Ford F350. It has the turbo charged 7.3 liter diesel motor. As you may well know, its not uncommon to get upwards of 400k out of these motors. Slides really smooth through every gear, and a crazy amount of pull through each. Has a hitch on the front and rear, power windows, power locks and original radio, CB radio, and trailer brake/rear hookup that all work. The AC is still ice-cold! Fleet maintained, never had a heavy load seeing has not been outfitted with a gooseneck, would cost couple hundred bucks to get one installed, but peace of mind knowing it hasn't been heavily loaded. Already has ladder rack mounts connected to the frame. The paint is fading a little on the wheel wells, but whatever, its a sweeeeet truck. The bad: Needs a new front right tire to pass inspection. You still have a month, however it should be replaced anyways. Why am I not replacing it? Because I'm listing it cheap and you can put whatever tires you want on it! Why don't I clean it up? Because its a truck thats currently being used every day and I don't want to spend money on it only to ruin all that detailing. As any dually driver knows occasionally you cut a corner too close and slide the protruding wheel well against whatever is close to it. In this case it was a mailbox. It didn't cause any structural damage, but it cracked the fender, which was fixed, quite solidly, except wasn't painted..see picture. This is why the running board section on the passenger side doesn't run all the way, I never even noticed until I was looking at the pics I posted. There also is a little indicator on the dash that says "Ready to start" when you run your glow plugs long enough. The little panel its on is loose, still works perfectly fine, but is just sitting there. A crafty person could fix this with some super glue or something. I am not crafty, therefore it stays as it is. I am selling this for locally online and in the paper, therefore reserve the right to pull the listing before its closing date if sold locally. It is listed in the paper for 7k. Honestly if someone gets close to that locally I will sell it. I am selling this for a friend who has fallen on hard times, I haven't made any effort to clean it whatsoever, this is it at its worst! I have been using it every day for a demo job over 40 miles a day, running like a bat outta hell.It is not a show piece, there is minor surface rust here and there, paint fading here and there, but overall looks fantastic. Timeless awesome Ford. If someone dropped the $500 bucks for a paint job, it would be an incredible looking rig. |

Ford Transit gets outfitted for prison duty
Wed, 24 Sep 2014Between the Taurus-based Police Interceptor, the Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility and the F-150 and Expedition special service vehicles, Ford has no lack of offerings for law enforcement. And now it has one more in the form of the new Transit PTV.
Based on the fullsize Transit van, the Prisoner Transport Vehicle can move as many as 12 prisoners in three separate compartments between detention facilities. Created in collaboration with Pennsylvania-based Havis Prisoner Transport Solutions and with input from Ford's Police Advisory Board, the Transit PTV takes advantage of the Transit's considerable configuration options that include three roof heights, two wheelbases, three lengths and four body-styles - not to mention engine options that include the flex-fuel 3.7-liter V6, 3.5-liter EcoBoost and 3.2-liter Power Stroke diesel.
"Transit PTV is the latest example of Ford's deep commitment to helping provide law enforcement agencies with capable vehicles. This concept proves Transit is upfit-ready and designed to Built Ford Tough standards," said Jonathan Honeycutt, Ford police marketing manager. "Many Police Advisory Board members have had the chance to drive this vehicle and they are excited about it. This new vehicle is tough, smart and efficient - ideal for the needs of law enforcement agencies."
New Ford Police Interceptor tech protects cops' backsides
Mon, 22 Jul 2013It was only a matter of time before law enforcement agencies would realize the potential of driver-assist technology for use in their Ford Police Interceptors, and, now that they have, those back-up cameras and radar systems won't be used just for parking, but for security, as well.
The surveillance mode system works when the camera or radar detects movement from behind the vehicle, and if it does when it's activated, an alarm will alert the officer inside the car, the driver's side window will roll up and the doors will lock, protecting the officer from an unwanted intrusion. The officer, of course, has the option to turn surveillance mode off, mainly in urban areas where pedestrians would constantly set the alarm off, and it can only be activated when the police car is in park.
Randy Freiburger, Ford's police and ambulance fleet supervisor, came up with the patent-pending idea when researching the needs of police officers and riding along with them, during which time he realized officers would be safer with an extra set of eyes watching the area behind their cars, especially at night or when they're completing paperwork, using the in-car computer or handling a radar gun. "Unfortunately, there are people with bad intentions who sneak up on police officers," he says.
Automakers donating money, vehicles and supplies to Oklahoma tornado relief effort
Fri, 24 May 2013Judging by the destruction the Oklahoma City area experienced earlier this week, residents are going to need a lot of help in coming months. Fortunately, a number of automakers - including General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Volkswagen, Honda and Toyota - have stepped up to donate money, supplies and vehicles to aid in the recovery and rebuilding processes.
Here's a quick rundown of which automakers have pitched in and what each contributed so far:
Ford Motor Company has donating $250,000 and a Transit Connect to the American Red Cross, and it will match all other donations made to the Red Cross (up to $250,000) using a special URL tied to the latter's website (link here). Additionally, its local Oklahoma dealers have thrown in an extra $150,000 for the United Way and the automaker will be offering an extra $500 toward the purchase of a new Ford vehicle.
