2005 Ford F-550, 4x4, 6.0 Diesel on 2040-cars
|
EBay does not show a listing for F-550 that is why this is under F-450, but it is F-550. 2005, 4x4, 6.0 Power Stroke diesel with 12' flatbed. It is from the South and has never seen an Ohio Winter. It is absolutely spotless with no rust of any kind anywhere. The truck has 198k miles on it, the engine has 133k miles. The truck runs, drives, and shifts perfectly and needs nothing. The 4 wheel drive, hubs, t-case everything works perfectly. Truck has never had a plow on it. Engine work: Approx 8k miles ago the heads were machined flat, new Ford head gaskets installed, ARP head studs, new oil cooler, EGR delete, dummy plugs, stand pipes, IPR o-rings, STC fitting, injector o-rings, coolant filter added with new CAT spec coolant, and new T-stat. I'm probably forgetting a thing or 2. It was gone through and all typical fixes done to make this bulletproof and a very reliable work truck. The turbo has approx 80k miles on it. The injectors were replaced with Allaint Power remans 8k miles ago, too. The FICM is a Swamp's 58v rebuilt unit 8k miles ago, too, and has the 80 hp PHP tune. The flatbed stake body is 12' long, has removable sides, and has tool boxes on both sides, all in excellent condition. The truck is 84" cab to axle with 4:88 gears. Tires are decent - they are not perfect and are not bald. They can be used to get you going for sure. The interior is in excellent shape, which is very unusual for an older work truck with 200k miles. The seat was totally trashed when I got it and I found a very reasonably priced tan seat for it. You can throw a seat cover on it if you want, I didn't so you can see it's a near new seat in great condition. Who cares what color it is, it's in a work truck! The truck is for sale locally here in North East Ohio, so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Contact me via email, phone or text with questions or to come see and drive. You will not be disappointed whatsoever with this super clean, bulletproof 6.0 Powerstroke diesel truck. 216-twothreefive-4060. |

This Or That: Fiat 500 Abarth vs. Ford Fiesta ST [w/poll]
Thu, 21 Aug 2014
They're pretty darn similar. And yet our views are oh so different.
If you guys could read the transcripts of our editors' chat room, you'd know that we're a pretty argumentative bunch. It's always good-spirited stuff (well, usually), but when we're not obsessively covering this or that, we're usually fighting about one car being better than another. We're all enthusiasts here, and our automotive tastes run the gamut from the weird and unusual to the decidedly mainstream - we all feel strongly about specific cars in a given segment. While it usually makes for good conversation, if we're passionate enough, it can turn into a tomato-throwing showdown.
Popular Science magazine's Best Of What's New 2012 all ate up with cars
Tue, 20 Nov 2012Popular Science has named the winners in its Best of What's New awards, the victors coming in the categories of aerospace, automotive, engineering, entertainment, gadgets, green, hardware, health, home, recreation, security and software. The automotive category did not go wanting for lauded advancements:
Tesla Model S: the Grand Award winner for being "the standard by which all future electric vehicles will be measured."
BMW 328i: it's 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gets called out for being more powerful and frugal than the six-cylinder it replaces.
Consumer Reports: Ford Fusion fun but flawed; Mitsubishi i-MiEV slow, chintzy [w/videos]
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Waiting for a Ford compliment from Consumer Reports these days is like waiting for a low-cost new product from Apple. So we weren't really expecting a glowing review of the 2013 Ford Fusion when CR got its hands on the car. The institute's crew bought three different versions of the Fusion (Hybrid, 1.6-liter EcoBoost and a Titanium with the 2.0-liter EcoBoost) to put through its barrage of tests, and while we aren't too surprised by some of the findings, they're still interesting nonetheless.
CR praises the Fusion for its "eye-catching" design and says that the sportier Titanium trim level is the best-handling midsize sedan they've ever tested, but that's about where the good news ends for Ford. The Fusion Hybrid also posted the best-ever fuel economy CR has recorded in a midsize sedan, but the only problem is that their number was 39 miles per gallon combined - far less than Ford's 47 mpg rating for city, highway and combined. As expected, CR also dinged the Fusion for its MyFord Touch, but some of the other gripes about the car include a cramped cabin and poor fit and finish.
Other Ford products tested this time around include the Focus Electric and C-Max Hybrid. Like the Fusion, CR's observed fuel economy of 37 mpg for the C-Max fell well short of Ford's advertised 47-mpg rating, and both cars were criticized for the use of MyFord Touch. CR notes that the Focus Electric's interior is also cramped, with the battery pack taking up a lot of cargo space.
