For auction: 1996 Ford F250 XLT with 4WD and a fuel injected 460. It is a pretty basic work truck, but has power windows, power locks, cruise control (inop), AC (inop)

I bought the truck in 2004 with 146k miles. Best as I can tell, it was a contractors truck. I've had the transmission rebuilt (professionally by ATM), replaced the brake lines, water pump, radiator, starter, a fuel tank, rear spring shackles, and other odds and ends. The air conditioning compressor clutch failed and I pulled the compressor and put in a bypass pulley - so their AC will need some parts and pieces to be operational again. The dash came loose and is held in place with screws - not pretty but it works.

The truck runs and drives fine, but it has all the issues that should be expected with a vehicle of this age. This truck has its fair share of rust underneath. The front main seal leaks, but not bad enough for me to need to add oil between changes. The front u-joints need to be replaced, but that just keeps me from using the 4WD. The seat sags on the driver's side. I have never gotten the cruise control to work. Driver's door sags and needs replacement hinge pins. Tires are in reasonable shape.

I have enjoyed the truck. Obviously, I did not have to drive it much (40k miles over 12 years), but it has been a workhorse when I needed it to be. I finally broke down and bought a new truck, so I don't need this one anymore.

I may be able to deliver within 50 miles for an extra $100, but you must contact me to coordinate this before auction close.

Can an actual Ford F-150 ride on 4 Power Wheels F-150s?

Tue, Dec 9 2014

A lot of kids are rough on their toys, especially when it comes to those made to be used outside, like a four-wheeled kid-size Power Wheels. Whether it's cruising through the sand box, carrying piles of rocks in the driveway or crashing around trees in the backyard, these motorized vehicles often take punishment from the moment the giftwrap comes off. The folks at Fisher-Price decided to give their latest F-150 Power Wheels a true torture test worse than any kid could have ever managed by setting a real 2015 Ford F-150 on top of four of them. Would the little toy trucks explode in a shower of plastic shards in a massive collapse, and if not, could they drive away afterwards? The latest F-150 might be 700 pounds lighter thanks to the switch to aluminum, but it's still a fullsize pickup. According to this clip, the truck weighs in at 4,120 pounds, which puts an average of 1,030 pounds on each of the toys. Check out the video above to see how the stunt goes, and click on the gallery below for some behind-the-scenes looks at the setup.

This 93-car Iowa auction is like a Big 3 classic muscle museum

Tue, Aug 27 2019

Bill "Coyote" Johnson has been buying cars since high school and has amassed a collection totaling 113 vehicles, according to NBC 6 News. But time has changed his motivations and priorities, and he's decided to auction 93 of those cars, many of which are classic muscle from Ford, Chevrolet, Dodge, Plymouth and Pontiac. The megasale will take place Sept. 14, 2019, in Red Oak, Iowa, at the Montgomery County Fairgrounds. A 1969 Plymouth Road Runner infected Coyote with a love for Detroit muscle when he was just a teenager, and his desire quickly turned into an obsession. He's spent the past 40 years finding, buying and working on a variety of makes and models. Unlike some collectors, Coyote didn't discriminate against certain brands and has rides from each of the Big 3 automakers. Included in the auction are Camaros, Satellites, Super Bees, Chargers, Challengers, Barracudas, Coronets, GTOs, Mustangs, Cutlasses and others. Possibly the most intriguing aspect of the auction is that all of these cars will be sold as-is with no reserve. Many of them will need work, depending on quality standards, but this seems like a golden opportunity to find a classic car without leaving a bank account in shambles. The auctions are open for bidding online now, and the full auction will take place on September 14. Check out the full listings and bid at VanDerBrink Auctions.
