This 95 F-150 is a Mark III conversion, Flareside extended cab.  The truck has been in the family for 11 years and has been my shop truck for many years.  There have been no accidents and no major repairs since we bought the truck with 40k miles on it.  This truck is very reliable, has ice cold A/C, leather interior (with wear and some tearing as you see in pictures), tow package, power rear sliding window, cruise control (works), automatic with overdrive, powdercoated 40 Ford style steel wheels (Wheel Vintiques), 34 Ford V-8 centers, stainless trim rings, BF Goodrich Radial T/A's (285/70/15 rears on 10's; 225/60/15 fronts on 8's) with 3k miles on them, all new brakes front to rear (rotors, pads, drums, shoes, hardware), new front wheel bearings, new starter last year, trans serviced at 150k miles (flush/filter/fill), and tune up at 150k (cap/rotor/plugs/wires/throttle body replaced/egr valve replaced/fuel pressure regulator replaced/new fuel filter).  The truck is lowered 2" in the rear and 1 1/2" in the front (lowered coil springs).  Has an incredible rake.

I have used Mobil-1 10w-30 synthetic since 75k miles, changed every 5k miles.  Differential oil was changed to synthetic (Valvoline) at 150k miles.  Rear showed no visible wear or alignment issues, rear bearings are excellent, diff does not leak.

The pinstriping is done by hand and was done by the late Gary Wills, "The Pioneer", and has been on the truck for many years.  I will not be removing the pintstriping as part of this sale.  Getting such a good truck, this cheap, if you don't like it...your elbow grease is free and have at it.  The lettering is for my shop, so this is a REAL "shop truck", used daily to advertise my shop, pick up parts, tow the show trailer (1700 lbs), tow and haul finished and project bikes...you name it, it did it and it never complained.

The truck does have scratches and obvious signs of use...no, wait, "This truck has great patina!"  No rust issues, solid frame, and excellent drivetrain.  Don't let the miles fool you.  This truck has been well taken care of...and driven only around 10k miles per year its entire life (think about that...my 08 Mazda has 120k on it already!).  This truck has a lot of life left and makes a cool statement every mile.

There are issues, however.  The leather seats show wear and there are several tears and pulls (rear seat is perfect).  The driveline has a mild vibration that appears around 25mph and disappears around 55mph.  I have had the tires re-balanced twice, but the issue has not corrected.  The driveshaft does not show to have lost any balance weights...so, the next step is to check the ball joints, which I have not done.  The vibration does not affect performance and is mild...but it is noticeable.  The front end is correctly aligned and that is not the issue.The driver side power window "up" limiter is gone.  So, you have to "stop" the window by letting off the switch when it gets to the top.  The gear drive for "close" on the power rear window is stripped.  You can open via the switch, then push closed.  The heater is weak, but the A/C is ice cold (the "trap door" does not always move to the heat side/standard problem in Fords).

I have a clear Tennessee title in my name.  I accept PayPal, cash, and credit cards (in any case, the truck will not be release until ALL funds are clear and in my hands).  If you ahve any questions, please use eBay's message function.  I will respond.

Of course, I make no guarantees or warranties of any kind.  This truck has been nice to me for many years.  It may not like you.  It may break down...or, it may run for longer than you need it.  In any event, once you buy it, it is yours...no whining, no takie-backsies.

Ford Mustang GT350 seen and heard in motion for the first time

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

We just recently saw our first spy shots of the next-gen hi-po Ford Mustang slated to replace the Shelby GT500, but now we're getting our first look - and listen - of prototypes captured on video. Mustang6g.com has the video (along with some different spy shots), which show that, if nothing else, SVT knows how to tune an exhaust system. The :50 mark is a good example of this, but fast-forward to around 2:00 where the driver revs the engine and really gets on the throttle hard taking off from a stop.
There's still no definitive evidence that the next-gen SVT Mustang - said to be called GT350 - will be naturally aspirated, but it sounds just as menacing as the current Shelby GT500. While the video posted below exhibits the sort of quality that is to be expected from someone driving while trying to film someone who is attempting to elude being filmed, it's still exciting to see and hear this new Mustang in motion.

Ford to announce Mulally retirement, Fields CEO as early as May 1

Mon, 21 Apr 2014

Ford CEO Alan Mulally may be about to announce his long-rumored retirement from the Blue Oval, according to a pair of insiders who spoke to Bloomberg. An official statement on the succession could arrive as soon as May 1. Chief Operating Officer Mark Fields is rumored to step up as the new CEO. The company is said to be readying the announcement soon to ensure an orderly transition of power, according to the insiders.
Mulally's retirement from Ford has been a hot topic for a while. He was seriously rumored last year to be leaving the automaker to take over as the CEO of Microsoft. The board even said at one point that it was okay with them if he stepped down early. However, the CEO maintained he would stay with the business through at least the end of 2014. Fields has been rumored as a frontrunner to take over the top spot at the company since he was promoted to COO.
For the moment, Ford isn't officially confirming any of these plans. "We don't comment on speculation. We do have succession plans in place for our key leadership. We take succession planning very seriously," said Susan Krusel, Ford Global News Manager, to Autoblog.

Mulally wanted to kill Lincoln as late as last year, Fields vows to turn it around

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

Lincoln fans might want to give incoming Ford CEO Mark Fields a pat on the back for having a hand in saving the brand from the chopping block last year. He's among the people spearheading the rejuvenation of the division away from its stodgy image to appeal to younger customers.
According to two unnamed sources speaking to Bloomberg, CEO Alan Mulally was ready to kill Lincoln last year. Following the slow production ramp-up of the MKZ combined a with a costly ad campaign, Mulally was frustrated and openly suggested dropping the brand. However, Fields and Jim Farley, Ford's marketing boss, convinced the CEO that the brand was worth saving. They also created a plan to prevent similar problems for new models in the future.
It seems that one part of the strategy may involve waiting until new models are at dealers before starting a big ad campaign for them. Lincoln global director, Matt VanDyke, recently told Autoblog that the division is holding off on a full marketing push behind the new MKC crossover to prevent the supply problems that plagued the MKZ last year. Its big offensive begins in the fall when the CUVs are at all of the dealers and consumers are at home watching more TV. VanDyke also told Bloomberg that Fields, Farley and Joe Hinrichs, Ford president of the Americas, have more direct oversight over new product launches now.
