Ford F-450 Western Hauler on 2040-cars
Utica, New York, United States
This is probably one of the best haulers available. First I'd like to say that the 6.0 engine is one of the best built. There have been some bad press, mostly due to the emissions that were put on these new engines. I have talked to several people with 6.0 diesels and they have never had a problem & some that have had nothing but problems. I spent a lot of time researching problems and solutions. Finally I decided to go through everything to "Bullet Proof" the engine. The automatic transmission was new as was the engine for 2003. The transmission is a work of art. It shifts beautifully and shifts down to use the engine as a brake. This truck was purchased in Texas and used there by the 1st owner. It then was purchased by the 2nd owner and used in Louisiana. I am the 3rd owner and live in New York State but the truck has never been in bad weather. The body is perfect. Below I will list all the things that I have done to the truck. Most of them to just insure that I would have no problems.
All this work & parts came to about $12,000. The fuel injectors alone were $2,300 not installed. I had an older 6.9 diesel with a turbo & a set of injectors for that were about $300 per set. I have all the receipts. Bottom line is that the truck runs perfect and has tremendous power. The Western Hauler package gives you many things such as upgraded leather seats that are heated. Air bags in the rear with a dedicated air compressor. The hauler body has all kinds of storage. The rear seat moves with power to make a bed. I only want to sell this truck because I don't use it. The first year I had it, we towed my car trailer & went to several shows and a Grand National Meet. My trailer loaded weighs about 10,000 pounds and this truck doesn't even know it's back there. I truly do think this truck is better than the new ones as they have more emissions on them. There is a 100 gallon fuel tank on the hauler bed and the 20 gallon tank that came on the truck. Let me know if you have any questions. |

Fields 'required' to use private aircraft, could make $5.25M as Ford CEO this year
Thu, 03 Jul 2014Mark Fields' travels on the friendly skies will soon be a relatively personal affair, as the new CEO at Ford will be required to resume air travel via the company's private planes. Fields caught plenty of flak in 2007 for flying on the company's dime to visit his family in Florida. He's since flown commercial.
According to Ford spokesperson Susan Krusel, who spoke to Bloomberg, Fields (pictured above right, with Bill Ford, Jr. at center and Alan Mulally at left) will switch to private travel "for safety and to maximize his availability for company business." In addition to his new travel arrangements, the 53-year-old exec's salary and bonuses have been revealed.
Regulatory filings by Ford revealed that Fields, whose first day in the big chair was July 1, will receive a base salary this year of $1.25 million and he'll be eligible for $3.5 million in bonuses, both of which are lower than Alan Mulally's $2 million salary and $5.88 million in bonuses received last year. That's also lower than General Motors CEO Mary Barra's alleged $1.6-million salary and considerably less than Sergio Marchionne's $3.19-million fixed salary from Fiat. Despite falling short of other CEOs, Fields' new pay still represents a 33-percent increase over his pay as Chief Operating Officer.
Mulally to stay at Ford through end of 2014 at least
Fri, 06 Dec 2013Alan Mulally isn't going anywhere... at least not just yet. The CEO who helped turn around Ford Motor Company has been linked to the top job at tech behemoth Microsoft, leading to a flurry of rumors about potential successors. Those rumors, though, may have just been put to rest - at least for a little while.
Speaking to Edsel Ford II (great-grandson of company founder Henry Ford) at the unveiling of the new Mustang, Automotive News Europe confirmed that Mulally would stick around until the end of next year. "Alan is staying through the end of 2014 and that's all I know," said Ford. "Frankly, he has told us that his plan is to stay with Ford through the end of 2014."
Presuming that Edsel Ford is correct and that Microsoft isn't so hot on Mulally that it saves the position for him, it seems increasingly likely that the 68-year-old exec is more interested in continuing to work in Dearborn rather than in Redmond.
Watch the Hennessey Ford GT makes its record run at Texas Mile
Wed, 27 Mar 2013We said they'd probably be out with an official video, we did not lie. The Hennessey-powered camouflage Ford GT sat at one end of the runway at the Texas Mile sitting still. At the other end of the runway it had broken its own speed record, the twin-turbo 5.7-liter V8 pushing the aerodynamic supercar up to 267.6 miles per hour, a 4.3-mph improvement over the old mark.
There's not much in the video you haven't already seen, this just makes it official. That said, who doesn't want to see a twin-turbo Ford GT set an incredible speed record? You can watch it below.
