Very nice 2000 ford excursion with the bulletproof Powerstroke 7.3 Diesel. ( the 2000 model 7.3 has forged connecting rods in the engine making it stronger than any of the newer 7.3's which have cast connecting rods which are weaker!) I am the second owner, This truck was a one owner truck when I bought it in September of 2012, it was bone stock and had 218,000 miles at that time, now it has 240,000 miles, it was owned by a female CEO of a Ford dealership in Texas and was meticulously maintained with all Ford parts and service. Since I purchased this truck I have recently installed a 8" suspension lift kit and 35" 315/75-16 Buckshot Maxxis Mudder Tires, I just put a Stage 2 Remanufactured Transmission in it 1 month ago. The leather seats are very nice and have no tears or rips. The 4 wheel drive functions as it should and has no issues. The tires have 3,000 miles on them and have about 90% life remaining. Truck starts great cold, hot or at any time, has no running issue. I have removed the exhaust from the factory downpipe back, It sounds good but not too loud. The truck is solid and runs excellent, It drives straight down the road and does not pull to one side or the other. I wish I did not have to sell this truck, I planned on keeping for a long time and have maintained it as such but I have to sell due to the upcoming purchase of a new home. I would not hesitate to drive this truck across the country and have twice!  Please call or text with any questions! 731-307-9124   Please ask questions before bidding! Test drive is available and welcomed. Thank you and good luck! some minor scratches see pictures! reserve price is $11,500

Next Ford Mustang to drop 400 pounds

Thu, 15 Aug 2013

The Ford Mustang is already the lightest of the current crop of muscle cars, at around 3,600 pounds for a GT coupe with the six-speed manual transmission. That's almost 260 pounds less than a Chevrolet Camaro SS and about 450 pounds less than a Dodge Challenger R/T, which means the Mustang has a pretty big advantage when it comes to handling, braking, accelerating and economy. More good news: The next Mustang will be even lighter.
According to a report from Edmunds, the sixth-generation Mustang, which is set to debut at the 2014 North American International Auto Show, will shed an additional 400 pounds of body fat. That 11-percent weight reduction will be thanks to lightweight materials, with a particular focus on using stronger, but less material in construction. Aluminum will feature heavily, but Edmunds' inside source warns that there is "nothing terribly exotic" coming to the original pony car.
The other big news is that the new Mustang will be smaller overall. It's going to be 15-inches shorter than the 188.5-inch Mustang on sale today, while it'll also be 6.5 inches narrower. Shorter overhangs, both in the front and rear, are also good signs for those that want an agile Mustang.

How Ford plans to handle insurance and repair questions surrounding new aluminum-bodied F-150

Tue, 21 Jan 2014

Building a car out of aluminum has a number of benefits - the lighter weight allows the vehicle to be more agile, more fuel efficient, make better use of its power and be more resistant to dings and dents. The downside to the advanced construction, though, is that repairs are both challenging and expensive. That's troubling for the new, aluminum-bodied Ford F-150, because it's kind of made a name for itself as a rugged, durable work vehicle.
How will the legions of Ford buyers cope when it comes time to insure and repair their new trucks? Well, according to Ford, it's expecting a ten-percent jump in insurance costs for the aluminum-bodied F-150, although Ford's truck marketing manager, Doug Scott, was quick to point out that the F-150 is generally cheaper to insure than its competition from Ram and General Motors. "At the end of the day, that's sort of a wash," Scott told Automotive News at last week's Detroit Auto Show. "We've spent a lot of time and feel very comfortable that that's not going to be an inhibitor."
The other issue facing Ford is the distinct lack of body shops that have the training or equipment to repair aluminum-bodied vehicles. AN cites an estimate from the Automotive Service Association claiming that of the 30,000 independent body shops in the US, less than 10 percent are able to work on aluminum.
