Very rare opportunity here. I am selling my truck because I really dont need this much truck. Most of the mileage was put on in the first 3 or 4 years. After that it ranged fro 2k -5k in a year. It only got that because I did not want it sitting and developing problems.

If you are seriously interested,contact me, I will end auction early until if and when reserve is met.

I will say up front that I know the price is premium. It is a premium condition truck and I have no intention of giving it away.  I have been watching and it is a super rare occasion that a regular cab truck comes available that is not worked to death. The truck was not detailed for pics or to sell. I took it out of the garage to take the pics and put it back. It stays this clean and stays inside.

Please bid only if you have the funds available to follow through. E bay is not cheap and if it meets reserve the final fees kick in.

Try finding this set up anywhere, chances are slim. If you want a regular cab loaded truck, Get it now. You will be very hard pressed to find a 10 year old truck in this condition. That being said, I dont have to sell it, but I would really like to see it used more for what it is. You can get in it right now and tow your camper,boat, or whatever, or you can hop in and go coast to coast. I is a very comfortable truck to drive. It is very easy to enter and exit with the grab handles and exterior steps.

The inside of the bed is used. I bought it for a truck, not a 34 thousand dollar people transport. There are scratches and probably some small dents in there. With the tonnea, you dont see them. If you have issues with the scratches, have it rhino lined. There is no rust in the cargo area.

Everything on the truck works just as it did when new.

I orderd this truck myself and have been the only driver on it since new. Actually my wife drove it a few times. It was never loaned out. Witht the exception of being in for service it was never out of my control.

Unless I was away with it, it never sat outside. It has been a garaged vehicle since new. The only option not on the truck is the back up sensors in the bumper. Not really sure why I did not just have them put on also. Every other option and package available was put on the truck when ordered.

The pictures are very self explanatory. You will be hard pressed to find a match to this truck. To this day I will be asked if it is new. Obviously it is normally people who dont know the visual difference of the newer models. Condition wise this is a solid 9.5 out of 10.

The top of the cab is just under 7 ft so it will fit in a 7 ft garage door. It is a 137 inch wheelbase

First the flaws. Left front corner of hood there is a small ding which I got on the PA turnpike last year. No idea what is was but sounded like a boulder hit it. easy repair but not without paint. Not very noticeable unless you are looking for it. The tailgate has two or 3 small dings from yours truly backing into a mailbox. These will come out with dent wizard but again you have to look for them.

On the interior there is a very fine scratch on the passenger side dash in the plastic caused by a buddy.

Thats it,  the rest is as close to brand new condition as you can get.

Original Items;  8800 gvwr package

All power, A/C, windows,locks, power and heated mirrors, power pedals,6 way drivers power seat, Interval wipers,cruise control, AM/FM/Casette/ single CD, Tilt wheel

Options included

Trailer tow package.

Package 607A  6.8 L V10 engine, 4 speed automatic transmission,3.73 axle ratios with limited slip rear

Advanced security group  Auto locks, auto headlights, Remote keyless entry

Bright tubular cab steps    sliding rear window   Camper package-rear stabilizer bar

FX4 Package   Skid plates    roof lights   Deluxe aluminum wheels ( removed after about 2-3 years, come with truck, still look brand new)

Snow plow package   Trailer hitch receiver,  cloth captain chairs,  

I ordered the manual front hubs and the manual 4wd shifter. I do not like the automatic and electronic crap. I have several friends who have had nothing but issues with the electronic.

The reason I had all of the available packages put on was that each one had something different in it.

This truck is sitting bare bones stock. It sits higher than my buddies F350 because of the spring packages.

Items I added

Tires and wheels. The tires DO NOT RUB.  They are in excellent shape. One year I had it in the mountains and had bad weather. I got sick and did not get it cleaned for a few weeks. The wheels got a little corrosion on them that you can see if you look close at the pics.  The original wheels are premium high polished aluminum and come with the truck if you want them.

Rear air assist air bags, can be seen in the pics. I run 5-8 lbs in them so that it does not drop when my quad is in the back. They do not harshen the ride.

Side and rear windows are tinted

Rear tonneau cover, May not be snapped in pics, but it is now and the print marks you see in the pics is from being rolled up. They do come out.

I changed my brakes and rotors just because of age, The pads were still 80% or better. I put slotted/dimpled rotors which have a lifetime no warp warranty. I do not know if it is transferrable.

It has a K&N air filter

Brake controller mounted I believe with velcro in the little cubby hole in the dash.

I have used Mobil one synthetic oil since after break in. It does not use any oil at all and has NO leaks.

Performance on the V10 is very impressive. The engine does not have to work hard at all. Around town and any towing will be 10 MPG just about always consistent. On the highway I have seen 14 MPG but again that is Highway running 65-75 mph. When I bought the truck I made chart comparisons with V10 vs diesel. Although the diesel hp and torque were higher, In the long run it never would have paid off for me. The cost of the diesel option, the extra cost of servicing and the fact that the fuel mileage is very comparible with diesel, and being 40 cents average higher per gallon, it did not make sense. This is my 2nd V10 and I would do it all over again. I have seen the banks Performance package numbers which wake this engine up even more.

Canadian buyers responsible for any paperwork to cross the border and all arrangements.

Local pick up. If you want it shipped its up to you, I will be available for shipper to pick it up. I can deliver for a fee depending where to. All money must be clear before truck is released. If you have concerns, I urge anyone to have a third party inspection. I will take it to any local shop of your choice.

10 yers old so no warranty expressed or implied, as is so be sure before you bid.

Any questions I can and will answer. I reserve the right to end auction early for any reason. If we meet reserve the auction will not end early so again I would ask you to bid only if you can follow through.

Lego provides one of the cheapest ways to own a Bugatti Chiron

Tue, Jan 3 2017

Just over a month ago, we got a look at one of the latest Lego Speed Champions sets when Ford revealed the GT and GT40 kit. Now we get to see the rest of the lineup, and it's chock full of F1 and supercar goodness. The official Lego images show that the Bugatti Chiron, Mercedes-AMG GT3, Ferrari FXX K, and F1 cars from Ferrari and Mercedes all made the cut. Each set gets some unique features and most include interchangeable wheel covers. The Chiron comes with some tiny cones suitable for desk slaloms and the Mercedes-AMG GT3 gets an alternate nose. The FXX K comes has the most impressive selection of accessories, though, as it includes a dyno and engine run stand. The F1 sets are divided similarly, but with Mercedes getting more extras. The Brick Fan also reports that the Mercedes kit may be exclusive to select stores. The Ferrari kit only comes with a starting light, but the Mercedes set includes a garage, starting lights, and winner's circle. It'll be up to you whether you put Hamilton or Rosberg in that winner's circle. According to The Brick Fan, these kits are set for release in winter 2017. Since the Ford GT set has a release of March 1, we expect the rest will hit stores in the next couple of months. They're sure to be great additions to anyone's existing Lego garage.

Ex-PR chief Vines accuses Ford of bugging cars, phones

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

Jason Vines, former head of communications at Ford among other automakers, is accusing the Blue Oval of bugging his company phone and his car during the Firestone tire recall for the Explorer in 2001. The allegations have come to light in Vines' upcoming book What Did Jesus Drive? Crisis PR in Cars, Computers and Christianity.
According to The Detroit News, which has an advance copy of the book, Vines (pictured above) claims that after leaving the company, someone with security within Ford advised him that he had been bugged around the time of the recall. The allegations don't stop there, though. Vines further contends that he might not have been the only one to get this treatment, noting that then-general counsel John Rintamaki also believed he was being listened to.
According to The Detroit News, even if it had been a company phone, recording Vines without his knowledge still would have been a felony under Michigan law.

Ford F-150 Raptor gets EcoBoost V6, new chassis and aluminum body [w/videos]

Mon, Jan 12 2015

The Autoblog staff universally loves the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, and the truck's about to get even better. Coming in the fall of 2016 (we'd assume as a 2017 model), the next off-road-ready pickup from Ford will boast an all-new, purpose-built, high-strength steel frame and a lightweight aluminum body that saves more than 500 pounds when compared to the current Raptor. It's six inches wider overall than the regular 2015 F-150, which both makes it look awfully mean but also aids in stability when driving fast off the road, and new LED lighting elements make it stand out when the sun goes dim. Under the Raptor's muscular hood will be a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine that will make more than the current 6.2-liter V8's 411 horsepower and 434 pound-feet of torque, though we don't have exact power figures for the next-gen Raptor quite yet. Also new will be a 10-speed automatic transmission, which will replace the current six-speed unit and ought to provide appropriate ratios for both rock crawling and high-speed desert trail running. Speaking of high-speed running, what makes the Raptor tick, perhaps more than any other single component, are its custom-designed suspension bits. Redesigned, larger Fox Racing Shocks with more suspension travel and all-new terrain management technology, combined with BFGoodrich All-Terrain KO2 tires, are the bits and pieces that allow for Baja-style off-roading. View 14 Photos The four-wheel-drive system in the next-gen Raptor will include a Terrain Management with settings for Normal driving, Street driving, Weather mode (for rain, snow or ice), Mud and Sand, Baja mode and Rock mode. According to Ford, the Raptor's new transfer case is designed to work as both a locking unit for crawling and a full-time unit for other off-road applications. A Torsen front differential will be optional. Basically, if all of this new stuff turns out to be as good in practice as it sounds in a press release, the next F-150 Raptor will only serve to separate Ford's off-road pickup even further from its half-hearted competitors. Feel free to watch the video and read more down below.
