Ford F-150 Pick Up Truck Xlt Extended Cab 4 Door 2wd 8 Foot Long Bed Triton V8 on 2040-cars
Hatboro, Pennsylvania, United States
Please read this entire description before bidding. I am providing a lot of detail in this description so it is accurately described. I have already purchased its replacement so there is no reserve. I need to get it off my insurance policy ASAP. It will be sold to the highest bidder when this auction closes. Happy bidding and good luck. For sale is my Ford F-150 XLT pick up truck that has an extended cab, 8 foot bed, 2WD, and a rear sliding window. Less than 25% of all trucks made have any of these options. Less than 1% have all of them on the same vehicle. It is very rare. It isn't my primary vehicle. I've always had a pick up as a second vehicle to move the family to the shore on weekends and deliver furniture to and from a local estate auction when I can handle the loading and unloading by myself. My family has grown and I found a similar truck that has all the same features with the larger size crew cab. As I show in the pictures, the extended cab has the front seat that is a split 60%/40% bench and the middle can be tilted down to become an arm rest / cup holder. The back seats are also a 60%/40% split bench that can be locked in the upright position. I purchased it in 2007 with 101,000 miles and I've put almost 43,000 miles on it. The motor is a Triton 8 cylinder, 4.6 L with strong power. The prior owner used it as a toy because it had the bed rug and stretch vinyl bed cover on it. Most of my miles have been from driving family stuff like kids, bikes, strollers, etc. The light moving was minimal miles and just local deliveries. The vinyl cover got wind damaged because I didn't secure it for highway driving. I needed to removed the three bed rug side panels to protect them from rain when I removed the bed cover and frame. I still have all the sections and will include them in this auction if the winning bidder wants it. Mechanically, this is a great truck. I gave it regular maintenance. The oil was changed within the last 1,000 miles, I replaced the tires last year and just replaced the breaks and rotors last month. On the way home from getting the breaks replaced, I got the long scratch / dent over the passenger side rear wheel well. That is the worst dent / scratch on the truck and was the catalyst to start the search for the replacement. Any truck with this many miles has flaws. Almost all flaws with this truck are cosmetic. Another words, there are several dings and dents all around this truck. Most were on the truck when I bought it. You will see my replacement has several too. Trucks seem to be cheaper when they have a couple dents. I have always cared more about the trim package and mechanical reliability. I've photographed and included the up close shots of the worst ones. There is also small 3" crack in the windshield caused by a stone that shot up from a vehicle in front of me. It is not a distraction while driving and has passed inspections. The plastic end cap that is on top of the gear shifter went missing a couple years ago. The kids never fessed up how they actually got it off and I never got around to buying another one. The ABS light has stayed lit while driving for the past three years I had the antilock braking system checked back when the light got stuck on. It works fine and has always past inspection while lit. I just never wanted to spend big bucks trying to figure out why it stays on. For some reason the passenger side lock won't go up when you push the power lock button on the drivers side. Again, not a big deal. You can see from the pics the interior seats are clean and I have extra mats on the floor. The stains on the floor are from the kids that spilt soda and drinks. Giving the carpets a shampoo would remove them if that is important to you. This truck isn't half way through its life because it has been well maintained and never used hard. I took a pic of my replacement gold color Ram pick up truck bed cover so you can see the type of vinyl cover frame I have and what it would look like if you decide to purchase a new cover to put over the existing but unattached frame. Nothing in the picture showing the gold truck is for sale in this auction. It is included strictly for a visual description only of what the vinyl cover would look like on the truck being sold. If you have any questions, please ask. Bid with confidence. I can't think of anything else to share about it. Good luck in your bidding. Someone will get a great deal on a rare XLT, 2WD, 8' long bed with an extended cab that runs great. Thank you for your interest.

Trump wants a trade deal, but South Korea doesn't want US cars
Thu, Jul 6 2017SEOUL - US auto imports from the likes of General Motors and Ford must become more chic, affordable or fuel-efficient to reap the rewards of President Donald Trump's attempts to renegotiate a trade deal with key ally South Korea, officials and industry experts in Seoul say. Meeting South Korean President Moon Jae-in last week in Washington, Trump said the United States would do more to address trade imbalances with South Korea and create "a fair shake" to sell more cars there, the world's 11th largest auto market. "What we really want to say to the United States is: Make good cars, make cars that Korean consumers like." While imports from automakers including Ford, Chrysler and GM more than doubled last year largely thanks to free trade deal which took effect in 2012, sales account for just 1 percent of a market dominated by more affordable models from local giants Hyundai and affiliate Kia. Imports make up just 15 percent of the overall Korean auto market, and are mainly more luxurious models from German automakers BMW and Daimler AG's Mercedes-Benz, which also benefit from a trade deal with the European Union. "Addressing non-tariff barriers would not fundamentally raise the competitiveness of US cars," a senior Korean government official told Reuters, declining to be identified because of the sensitivity of the subject. "What we really want to say to the United States is: Make good cars, make cars that Korean consumers like." TASTE BARRIER In Korea, US imports are seen as lagging German brands in brand image, sophistication and fuel economy, industry experts say. US imports do have a competitive advantage in electric cars: Tesla Motors' electric vehicles are seen as both environmentally friendly and trendy, while GM has launched a long-range Bolt EV. US Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross had cited a quota in the current trade deal as an obstacle to boosting imports. The quota allows US automakers to bring in each year 25,000 vehicles that meet US, not necessarily Korean, safety standards. Should GM, for example, decide to bring in more than its quota of one model - the Impala sedans - it would cost up to $75 million to modify the cars to meet Korean safety standards, the company told its local labor union. Asked about non-tariff barriers, a spokesman at GM's Korean unit said removing them could expand the range of models the company can bring in from the United States. No US company, however, has yet to make full use of the quota, industry data shows.
Ford readying three-row Edge for China
Fri, Nov 21 2014The next-generation Ford Edge will be available with quite a growth spurt for its debut in China next year, with newly announced plans also to build and sell a three-row version exclusively in the People's Republic. However, markets outside of there likely won't see the larger model. Ford marketing boss (and future head of Ford of Europe) Jim Farley announced the three-row version of the crossover at the Los Angeles Auto Show, according to Automotive News. To create the extra room, Ford made the Chinese-built variant about 16 inches longer than its two-row counterpart. Farley didn't specify at which of the Blue Oval's plants in the country this model would be assembled. The Explorer and forthcoming Everest already offer three rows from the Ford lineup in China, but the company thinks the market can easily support all of them. According to Farley to Automotive News, the utility segment is up 485 percent in the country since 2008. Customers in the US can still look forward to the two-row Edge hitting dealers early next year. It'll be the first model in the Blue Oval's lineup here to come standard with EcoBoost power.
Ford cuts production at 5 plants, has big backload of cars including Mustang
Wed, Sep 20 2017DETROIT — Ford said on Tuesday it plans to idle five North American vehicle assembly plants for a total of 10 weeks to reduce inventories of slow-selling models. The plants affected include three assembly plants in the United States and two in Mexico, the company said in a statement. The vehicle models include the Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ midsize sedans, the Ford Focus compact car, the Lincoln Continental and Ford Mustang, Ford Fiesta and the Ford Transit van. Ford said the Cuautitlan assembly plant that builds the Fiesta would be idled for three weeks. The Hermosillo, Mexico plant that builds the Fusion and MKZ and the Flat Rock, Michigan, factory that assembles Continentals and Mustangs will be idled for two weeks each. The Michigan Assembly plant that builds the Focus will be idled for one week, and the Kansas City assembly line that builds Transit vans will be down for two weeks. Ford did not give dates for the temporary shutdowns. The factories involved employ more than 15,000 people, according to Ford's website. The company did not say how many of those workers would face temporary layoffs. As of Sept. 1, Ford had 111 days' worth of unsold Mustangs, 87 days' supply of Fusions, and a 103 days' supply of Transit vans, according to Automotive News. Dealers had enough unsold Lincoln Continentals to last 162 days. Automakers aim for 65 to 70 days of inventory of most models. Ford and rival General Motors have wrestled most of this year to rein in high inventories of passenger cars as consumers have shifted to buying pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles. Production cuts slice into revenue, but also could help the automakers avoid deeper price cuts on vehicles they can sell.
