I am selling my 2001 Ex with the Legandary 7.3 L Diesel. I bought this truck back in March of this year, and some personal matters have taken place. I can no longer afford to keep it, and I need something more practical to haul my kids around. It's a really nice truck.  It catches a lot of eyes, and has plenty of power for hauling.  I hauled my Jeep 500 miles with it with no problems whatsoever.

Truck has 207,000 miles.  If you do your research, or know anything about these engines, there is easily another 200-300K left in it.

Truck has full leather with 3rd row seating and rear air.  Seats and carpet are in nice shape

The front end has been upgraded to a 2005 Harley Davidson Edition.  The front headlights have an HID upgrade kit.

8" Fabtech suspension lift with front Dirt logic 4.0 coil overs and rear air bags. The lift alone was $12,000.

38X15.50 R20 Toyo Open Country MTs mounted on 20X10 black Jesse James wheels.  Tires in decent shape.  They still have several miles left in them.  2 of the wheels have a slight color variation.  Looks to me like someone used some type of cleaner on them, and they blemished the wheel. I included pics.  I was looking at replacing them when I replaced the tires.

I bought the truck out of Florida, and the roof is oxidized.  I got an estimate on repainting the roof for $400.  Granted, that wasn't a showroom paint job, but the roof is 8 feet off the ground and it doesn't need to be.  You can't see the roof.  I thought the $400 estimate was fair.

There is a small oil leak.  I had it checked out by the dealer and it needs a crankcase vent filter.  It goes on top of the left valve cover.  The price of the filter is $200.

There is a check engine light that has been on since I bought it.  The code is waste gate sensor.  The dealer said it was probably a bad solenoid.  I didn't worry about it because it had to do with emissions, and not engine.  The truck drives with no issues.

It does not have a steering stabilizer on it.  I was going to put one on it, but frankly, I've gotten used to it.  It drives a little loose, but not too bad.  I drove it home 15 hours from Florida running 80 MPH with no issues. You can get a dual steering stabilizer for as little as $135.

There is a JL Audio Sub mounted in the spare tire.  These are the best subs money can buy. The amp for the sub is under the rear seat, and all door speakers have been upgraded to MTX.  I just put a new Clarion Double Din receiver in with Bluetooth.

Since I bought the truck in March, I've replace both batteries with Optima Red top batteries. Those were $400.  I put a new alternator ($200) on in May.  Both rear corner panel windows are new.  The seals were shot from the Florida sun and both windows leaked.  I couldn't buy new seals, since the seals came already mounted to the glass.  The windows were $500 a piece. I also added the black bull bar on the front which is believe was around $200.

The passenger rear window is a little slow coming back up.

I am an honest seller.  I have described this truck honest and fairly.  The things this truck needs are minimal and minor.  Overall, the truck in is great shape.  Seats, carpet, and paint are all nice. Engine runs like it should, and 4WD shifts in and out smoothly.  Both fuel filters were just replaced.

As always.. it is best for you to see this truck in person before buying.  Shipping is the buyers responsibility, but I am more than happy to assist.  I will be here when the truck is loaded and I will take pictures of the whole process if you prefer.  If you choose to pick up, I can meet you at the airport with the truck in Paducah, KY.  That airport is 30 miles from my house.  It is a small airport, and more expensive to fly into.  If the cost of the ticket is too expensive, I will meet in Nashville, TN, or St. Louis, MO. Both of those airports are roughly 3 hours from my house. I will do that at my own expense.

Truck has clear title.  If you need specific pictures or more information, feel free to call or text 270-705-0815.

Truck is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early if it sells.  Even on the day of the auction close.

Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates

Tue, 26 Feb 2013

Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.

J Mays retiring from Ford design, succeeded by Moray Callum

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

Ford's highly influential head of design, J Mays, has announced that he'll be retiring from his position after 33 years in the industry, 16 of which were at the Dearborn, MI-based company. Upon departure, he'll be succeeded as group vice president of design by Moray Callum. If that last name sounds familiar, yes, he's the brother of Jaguar's Ian Callum.
It's difficult to explain just how big of a role Mays had on not just Ford's design over the years, but on the entire industry. Before heading to Dearborn, Mays worked for Audi, BMW and then Volkswagen, where he was involved in concept cars that paved the way for design icons like the first-generation Audi TT and the Volkswagen New Beetle. As for his Ford resume, it's extensive.
Mays joined the company in 1997 as design director for Ford, Lincoln, Mercury and Mazda, as well as the Premier Automotive Group (Volvo, Land Rover, Jaguar and Aston Martin). He was heavily involved in the Ford Fusion, Focus, Fiesta, Taurus, F-150 and Mustang, while also contributing to concept cars like the Atlas, Evos, 427, Forty-Nine, Shelby GR-1, Lincoln MKZ and the MKC.

Ford announces 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition

Tue, 09 Apr 2013

Ford has pulled the wraps off its anticipated 2014 F-150 SVT Raptor Special Edition model, a new variant of the popular street-legal off-road specialist. In a nutshell, the "special" is all cosmetic - there are no mechanical upgrades to the truck and its 6.2-liter V8 (411 horsepower and 434 pound-feet of torque), Torsen limited-slip differential, beadlock-capable wheels and internal triple-bypass FOX Racing Shox dampers all remain untouched.
The SVT Raptor Special Edition, which adds cosmetic enhancements to the existing Luxury Package, will be offered in Ruby Red Metallic and Tuxedo Black Metallic with box-side graphics. The interior upgrades include Brick Red seat bolsters (with black inserts), cloth honeycomb highlights and a console top finish panel.
As of now, Ford has only release a couple pictures of the Special Edition model. But check back later, as we will update the gallery when additional high-res images are released later today, and be sure to peruse the press release below for all the details.
