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.

2015 Shelby GT bows in Scottsdale with 627 supercharged ponies
Mon, Jan 19 2015Between the base V6, the EcoBoost turbo four, the eight-cylinder GT, the monstrous GT350 and the new GT350R (to say nothing of transmission and convertible options), muscle-car enthusiasts have a staggering array of Mustangs to choose from. And now there's one more as Shelby American has introduced the new 2015 Shelby GT. Building off the success of the 2007 Shelby GT and the 2013 follow-up, the new 2015 model was just introduced at the Ford booth at Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale, AZ. It's based on the latest Mustang GT (whether factory fresh or commissioned from an owner's existing pony car) but upgrades with an enviable list of enhancements from Ford Racing Performance Parts, Shelby's own upgrades and top-shelf third-party components. For starters, the engine is supercharged up to 627 horsepower (with over 700 available through further upgrades). It's got 3.73 gears, a Borla exhaust, WELD Racing wheels, Michelin tires and Wilwood six-piston front brakes. Visual enhancements include a carbon-fiber body-kit (including a two-piece rear diffuser) and billet aluminum front grilles. Designed from the get-go to be sold around the world, the 2015 Shelby GT is certified for use in all 50 states and comes with a Shelby American CSM number registered in the company's registry, but all those enhancements don't come cheap: Shelby's charging $39,995 for the new GT, and that's just for the modifications. Add that to the $32k sticker on a Mustang GT donor and you're looking at over $70k – which is not only more than Ford itself is expected to charge for its own GT350, but more than Dodge gets for a Challenger Hellcat.

(CSBI:PK), launched the first global Shelby GT muscle car, which is based on the all-new 2015 Ford Mustang GT. One of the most popular cars in Shelby history the 627 HP 2015 Shelby GT was unveiled today at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction in Ford Motor Company's booth. Shelby is now taking orders with delivery of cars planned for the beginning of the second quarter of 2015.
Amazon looking to bring Kindle to your next car?
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Maybe so. The online retailer and digital media monolith recently announced the Amazon Cloud Player, an application for Ford Sync that allows users to stream media from their Amazon Cloud account directly to a Ford vehicle. This foray into automotive technology got the minds at Gigaom.com thinking about what could be next for Amazon. As Kevin Fitchard writes, the logical step is to make audio versions of your Kindle library selections available in your car. As he points out, Amazon has already laid the groundwork for such a move.
Amazon pulled the sheets back on Whispersync for Voice last year. The tech pairs ebooks with an Audible book for a small extra fee, allowing users to either read along with a narrator or switch between audio and text versions on command. Fitchard says it wouldn't be some great leap to apply the same principles to a car, where voice recognition software would allow users to pause or select chapters without ever taking their eyes off of the road.
It all sounds just fine to us, but Amazon hasn't said a thing about such a move. Still, we wouldn't be surprised to see the company come down this road in the near future just the same.
Expert: 54.5 mpg CAFE standard can be reached without many plug-ins
Sat, Jan 18 2014Johnson Controls executive Brian Kesseler isn't likely to get any holiday presents this year from Nissan chief Carlos Ghosn or Tesla Motors head Elon Musk, but lots of other folks might be happy with what he has to say about automakers' efforts to reach stricter fleetwide fuel-economy standards. Speaking at the Automotive News World Congress, Kesseler said automakers wouldn't need to sell an extensive number of plug-in vehicles in order to meet the 54.5 mile per gallon Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standard the US government set in 2012 for 2025 model-year vehicles. In fact, he said, components such as stop-start engine technology, turbochargers and direct injection may actually do the trick. Already, things like smaller engine sizes and lighter cars are already playing major roles in spurring fuel-efficiency gains. Of course, Johnson Controls sells batteries specially built for stop-start systems, so Kesseler does have a bit of skin in this game. The 54.5-mpg CAFE standard equates to about a 40-mpg "real world" fuel-efficiency level. To put that into perspective, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said in a report late last year that model-year 2013 average fuel economy was an even 24 mpg. That was up from 23.6 mpg for the 2012 model year and 22.4 mpg for 2011.
