The truck is in working order, but temporarily down for minor electrical maintenance. Truck was not holding a charge in the battery, got new battery, new starter, and finishing wiring to get running again. Lights and wipers work, engine runs fantastic as it was recently rebuilt prior to my ownership. I have had the shocks and brakes completely replaced, and the electrical wiring for the light bar and radio et al cleaned up. Body has been sanded for exterior rust and primed, still needs bondo in a few spots and final paint job. Mileage on odometer is for rebuilt engine, but only has 5 spaces so when it turns over it goes back to 0. Reasonably confident per my mechanic that the 32,699 miles are accurate for the rebuilt engine. Originally purchased in south Florida, drove it to North Carolina with no issues when I moved. Functions awesome as a daily or weekend driver using a garmin for speed- otherwise needs a new speedo cable- have part number available with purchase. Registered in FL with FL tags, still- would not currently pass NC inspection. Huge lift on this truck, at least 7", with 35x12.5x16.6 all terrain tires (no spare tire). Warn locking front hubs put truck in 4WD, and comes with wire cable winch on front bumper.

Have owned this for 2 years now and slowly been working on it, just don't have the time to finish it out with paint job, etc., nor do we have the space at our current house.

Sale must be completed in person - CASH ONLY. Title is free and clear. If I finish the electrical by the time you buy, you can drive it away, otherwise it will need to be hauled. I am keeping my tags so if driving you will need tags for the truck- or that's on you. Will provide Bill of Sale and Title upon purchase.

Ford tops mid-year ranking of brands in the US

Thu, 18 Jul 2013

YouGov's mid-year Brand Index rankings of America's best perceived brands has been released, and Ford has found its way to the top. The Dearborn, Michigan based manufacturer beat out online shopping giant Amazon, The History Channel, and home improvement superstore Lowe's, to take the top spot.
Ford jumped from sixth overall in 2012 to first for 2013, but those that have been watching these rankings shouldn't be hugely surprised. Ford was rated the best perceived automotive manufacturer by the same organization last year. The Blue Oval's success on the overall brand rankings is made all the more impressive by the complete lack of other automakers on the list.
YouGov (that is, survey respondents) cited Ford's first quarter of 2013 business, which saw an increase in market share and the best earnings recorded in over 10 years. Successfully launching the Focus and Fusion (pictured) and keeping them fresh in the minds of consumers has also contributed to Ford's best overall score.

2015 Ford F-150 claims segment's best payload, towing ratings

Mon, 29 Sep 2014

While we are set to drive the new, 2015 Ford F-150 in the coming days, there's a big piece of news on the latest-generation of the Blue Oval's bread-and-butter pickup coming out of Dearborn, and it focuses on the truck's hauling and towing abilities.
The new F-150 will have a maximum payload of 3,300-pounds (V8 models), and, perhaps more importantly, a 12,200-pound tow rating (EcoBoost V6 models), which for the first time are compliant with the Society of Automotive Engineer's J2807 standards. Those best-in-class figures are significant feathers in Ford's cap as the Detroit Three continue duking it out for the title of top pickup.
"As founding members of the SAE trailer towing committee, we will meet SAE trailer towing standards," Ford's Aaron Miller told Autoblog.

Ford looks to protect logo from Toronto mayor followers

Fri, 15 Nov 2013

One is a member of the Detroit Three and the maker of the Mustang, Fusion, Explorer and F-150. The other is an admitted loudmouthed, drunk-driving, crack-smoking mayor in Canada. Unfortunately for one, it shares its name with the other. Yes, Ford Motor Company is going to great lengths to keep its iconic Blue Oval logo from being appropriated by supporters of besieged Toronto mayor Rob Ford.
At a United Way event earlier this week, some of Mayor Ford's fans showed up with shirts that featured the automaker's logo with the words "Ford Nation," on them. Naturally, Mayor Ford signed them. FoMoCo was quick to issue an unhappy statement:
"Ford did not grant permission for use of its logo. We view it as an unauthorized use of our trademark and have asked it to be stopped," spokesperson Jay Cooney said. There was also a statement from Ford of Canada's Twitter account after a user alerted the company:
