1979 Ford F-100. This is a good solid truck. It has a built big block 460 with Edelbrock aluminum intake and 4 barrel carb plus a MSD electronic ignition with headers and a nice dual exhaust. In addition to having a flex fan for cooling this truck also has an auxiliary electronic cooling fan just in case. The truck is an automatic and has a custom floor shift. This truck runs good and sounds great. It's been built to cruise and it's never been raced. It has always been adult driven and well maintained. The odometer reads 79,794 but the prior owner said the engine and transmission has less than 5,000 miles on them. It is a rear wheel drive (not a 4x4). I have many people coming out next weekend with intent to purchase. So this listing will be posted but if payment is not received by the weekend, first person with the money gets the truck.

The truck gets a lot of attention, mostly due to the custom paint. It's a beautiful "House of Kolor" shade of orange called Sunset Orange Metallic. The paint was done several years ago but still looks great. It has some very fine lavender pearl metallic chips that really make the color pop in the sunlight. It is a nicely done, modern, base coat clear coat paint job that will look great for many more years. The exterior chrome is in good condition. It has custom side mirrors, bed rails, spray in bed liner, and a large low-profile diamond plate tool box. The custom wheels are in great condition, as are the tires, and they accent the truck nicely.

The interior of the truck is as nice as the rest of it. The original seats have been replaced with a more comfortable, modern seat. It is a soft and supple tan leather seat with a fold down console. The truck has a modern JVC CD/MP3 player and upgraded speakers in the doors. The dash looks great and has a set of more-accurate-than-stock, aftermarket gauges for temperature, oil pressure, and voltage. The heater works great. This truck did not originally have AC, but there are affordable kits available if that is something you feel you would need to do.

This truck really doesn't need anything. It has sufficient power to pull a trailer or a boat with ease. I would feel confident driving this truck anywhere. It is very reliable as well as being very fun to cruise around in. We don't have to sell it but we would like to thin out our pack of cars and make a little room in the driveway since we recently bought a new truck, we decided we could let this one go. We are asking $9900 for the truck. The truck is not perfect. It is over 30 years old, so do not expect a trailer queen. It is however solid, sound, and a great price for a beautiful and dependable truck! It was my daily driver for the last year.

If you would like more pictures or a copy of the appraisal, please text or email. VIN: F10BNFB3246.

2015 Ford F-150 named Truck of Texas, Lincoln and Jeep also awarded at Truck Rodeo

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

The Ford Motor Company has a lot of reasons to celebrate after winning eight categories in this year's Texas Auto Writers Association's annual Truck Rodeo. Most important among them, the Blue Oval's latest 2015 Ford F-150 earned the prestigious Truck of Texas award, ending the Ram 1500's two-year winning streak. The 2015 Lincoln MKC also grabbed the honor as the CUV of Texas, and Ford was named Truck Line of Texas.
FoMoCo even took trophies for best technology with its extensive use of aluminum on its latest F-Series and best commercial vehicle for the new Transit 250. It wasn't a total sweep, though, because the Jeep Grand Cherokee grabbed the title of the SUV of Texas for the fifth straight time.
This year's event put 60 auto writers in 75 pickups, SUVs and crossovers and challenged them to find the best in a plethora of categories. All of the winners are listed below, and scroll down to read the full announcements from the Texas Auto Writers Association and Ford.

Ford only automaker to make 2012 Buzz Rankings, Toyota most improved

Wed, 30 Jan 2013

Ford landed itself a spot among the top 10 brands in the 2012 Buzz Rankings. The annual index scores 1,100 brands in 41 categories to determine which nameplates had the most positive buzz throughout the year.
For the third year in a row, Subway took the top honors overall with a score of 40.3, and Ford was the only automaker to break into the top 25 by earning a sixth-place finish overall. The manufacturer earned a score of 32.1 points, which was enough to push it up one spot from the 2011 Buzz Rankings. Honda managed 21.2 points overall, which is still well behind 25th-place Kohl's at 26.5 points. Toyota, Volkswagen and BMW all round out the top five automakers.
The 2012 Buzz Rankings also keep track of which brands improved the most over the past year, and this year, Toyota was the manufacturer with the largest leap forward. The Japanese automaker jumped from just 14 points in 2011 to 20.5 in 2012. Chrysler, Kia, Dodge and Volkswagen all saw sizable steps forward as well. Be sure to head over to the Brand Index site for more information.

2014 Ford F-150 gets CNG option

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

Ford is toiling away, installing heavy-duty engine components into select 3.7-liter V6s to allow them to run on compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquid petroleum gas (LPG) in addition to gasoline. That's nothing new, but now, Ford has announced that it will offer the 2014 F-150 with this engine configuration, bringing the Blue Oval's total number of CNG/LPG-friendly vehicles up to eight. The F-150 will be the only half-ton pickup on the market that can run on these gases.
Ford will charge $315 per vehicle to equip the optional engine, but the trucks won't be ready to run on the alternative fuels straight from the factory and must be upfitted with additional equipment. A Ford Qualified Vehicle Modifier will install a separate fuel system for the compressed gases at a cost of $7,500 to $9,500, depending on fuel tank size. With the right-size tank, the F-150 equipped with the CNG/LPG-prepped engine can go 750 miles on one tank of gas, according to Ford, averaging 23 miles per gallon.
The practice of offering flex-fuel vehicles is gaining momentum as businesses take advantage of cheap gas. CNG can be bought for $2.11/gallon on average (per gasoline equivalent), and sometimes for as little as $1.00 in some parts of the US, Ford states. "With the money saved using CNG, customers could start to see payback on their investment in as little as 24 to 36 months," says Jon Coleman, Ford's fleet sustainability and technology manager. The automaker expects to sell a total of 15,000 CNG/LPG-prepped vehicles in the 2014 model year.
