Up for sale is this 1978 Ford F-250 pickup with a regular cab & 8' long fleetside bed. I have owned this truck since 2003 and I have kept up on the maintenance, this is a good running & driving work truck which I would not hesitate to drive cross-country in if necessary (her name is "Blondie"). I have put between 1000-2000 miles a year on it since I have owned it. Stated mileage is whats on the odometer: I have no way of knowing how accurate this is but the speedo has always been operational as long as I have owned it. This truck has a 4-spd standard transmission on the floor (it was originally an automatic) and a strong running 351M 8-cyl gas engine. This originally had factory AC but all that has been removed. It has two fuel tanks but only the front tank is hooked up, the back tank has been disconnected for as long as I have owned it (and the selector switch went with all the AC stuff when it was removed). Tires (LT235/85R16) have a lot of treadwear, more so on the front as I swapped out the backs for snow tires(not included) each winter. Rims are white painted steel cookie-cutter types. This has a 2" hitch ball on the rear bumper and is wired with a 7-pole electrical connector I hooked up for towing a small camp trailer. The passenger side on the bed has a factory in-bed storage compartment. Also there is a plastic side tool box installed in the bed. The back window has shaded window film installed. The entire exhaust system was replaced in 2005 (manifolds, single Thrush straight tube muffler, front & tail pipe.) I replaced the clutch, pressure plate & throw-out bearing in 2006. I have replaced the intake manifold gasket, the carburetor (this is a rebuilt 2-bbl carb with manual choke from a 1969 F-250), the brake shoes & pads, heater core, driver's side window regulator, sunvisors (black vinyl), Door panels (black plastic aftermarket), rear axle seal, differential seal, ignition coil, battery, tune-up parts (plugs, cap, rotor, wires), radiator hoses, belts and of course wipers, oil & filters as needed. The air filter is a std. 14" round filter in a chrome Edelbrock frame. Last year I replaced the tie rods, steering linkage links & link sleeve, and front axle bumpers as well as all four shocks. So not only have I kept it maintained, but I have restored some things here and there over the past 10 years whenever the mood hit to spend some money on her. This truck has quite a few cosmetic problems which I will now mention: Lots of small dings and scratches especially on the truck bed, but there is an area on the hinge side of the drivers door that is wrinkled (the bottom hinge failed and was eventually replaced but the damage was done) and the tailgate has a dent on top from the truck rolling backwards and striking a pole. The windshield has a crack on the drivers side coming up from the bottom about 12" and a chip above that which is starting to spread. The bottom seat vinyl is cracked and tore up pretty good & I have a cloth seat cover over it (the seat back is from a different seat and is in great condition). The rubber floor mat is cracked up from heat because there is no insulation on the floor (so it's a little louder inside than it should be). The vinyl dash cap is missing so the dash is just bare brown painted steel. This truck has personalized Veteran's plates which will not be included, they have sentimental value and are transferable to my other vehicles. If you are taking this out of state this won't matter as you'll need new plates anyway. Oregon buyers should figure new plates into the cost before bidding. If you plan on driving this away you will just need to pick up a temporary/ 30-day tag for the window from the DMV. I've taken a variety of pictures so please look them over closely. Feel free to ask questions, I will respond as soon as I can.

Wed, Dec 1 2021

America loves trucks. According to Edmunds, which has tracked the best-selling vehicles by state based on new vehicle registrations, 40 out of 50 U.S. states’ best-selling vehicle is a pickup.

Interestingly enough, only one EV shows up in a stateÂ’s top five (Tesla Model 3 in California). Read on below to see whatÂ’s most popular in your state.

5 classic trucks and their polarizing modern revivals

Sun, Mar 3 2024

EVs are helping eliminate Detroit's gas-guzzling problem. Some revivals of gas-powered classics are getting the EV treatment.Â But not every revived model looks exactly like its original counterpart. We're in a new era of hulking Detroit metal, and you can thank EVs. Americans can't get enough of their big, beefy trucks and SUVs. But for many years, some of the biggest gas guzzlers fell out of fashion as gas prices rose and emissions regulations tightened. But in the past few years, some of the most iconic American truck nameplates have been brought back to life with electric motors, like the GMC Hummer. In other cases, as with the Ford Bronco, improvements in engine technology and more interest in rugged adventure vehicles made a gas-powered revival possible. Even some revivals that started as gas-powered, like the Chevy Blazer and the Jeep Wagoneer, are now getting electrified spinoffs. (Even if they don't always look quite as sleek as their original inspiration.) Here are side-by-sides of five classic American trucks and their modern counterparts. The Jeep Wagoneer 1975 Jeep Wagoneer and 2024 Electric Jeep Wagoneer SStellantis After a long wait, Jeep released its revival of the classic Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer in 2020. Starting later this year, an electric version of the luxury Jeep SUV will join the Wagoneer lineup. The Chevrolet Blazer A 1973 Chevrolet Blazer and a 2024 Chevrolet Blazer EVGetty Images, General Motors The Chevrolet Blazer was first rebooted in 2019 as a sporty family SUV. The modern Blazer shares zero resemblance to its boxy, off-roading older sibling, but it has still managed to become one of Chevy's more popular SUVs in recent years. The Blazer EV came later, and was one of the first models GM built on its new Ultium battery platform. The Hummer A Hummer H2 and the 2023 Hummer EV pickup truckGetty Images, General Motors Once the poster child for Detroit's big, bad gas guzzlers, the Hummer got new life as an electric pickup truck in 2021. The Ford Bronco A 1971 Ford Bronco and a 2022 Ford BroncoFord Motor Co. After a rouge group of engineers and designers inside Ford spent years trying to breathe life back into the Blue Oval's boxy off-roader, the Ford Bronco was finally resurrected in 2020 amid a rise in popularity for rugged adventure vehicles.
