Up for grabs here is a wonderful truck that's been one of the most reliable and useful (not to mention rugged and powerful) vehicles I've ever owned - a 1995 Ford F350 XLT 4x4 Crew Cab truck with the legendary 7.5L (460 cu. in.) gas V8 engine. With only 88K original miles this truck runs like a top and is barely broken in. I would trust it to go anywhere, and with regular maintenance and care it will last nearly forever. It's a classic, tried-and-true, hard-working truck at a mere fraction of the cost of a brand new monster F350 (and for my money I'd rather own this truck any day!)

This truck is immaculate and in flat-out amazing condition for a vehicle approaching 20 years old … if you're looking for a classic, old-school Ford truck this may be the one for you. You'll have to search long and far to find one as nice! I apologize in advance for the wordiness, but there's a lot to say about this one so grab a cup of coffee and read on!

HISTORY
I've owned this truck for about 5-6 years now, and bought it with 63K on the odometer if I recall correctly. It's been my personal vehicle (never used commercially) and I've used it mostly for occasionally towing camp trailers and hauling vintage motorcycles and, in all honesty, it's overkill for what I've used it for–it tows the small trailers I've had like they're not even there. However, it was just too nice of a truck to pass up and I've been nothing but happy with it. It was traded in at a leasing company in Dallas and if I recall correctly from the carfax it had always been a Texas truck. (I have since spent a couple years in Virginia with it, but it's now happily back in the Lone Star state.) It remains 100% rust free as one would expect from a Texas truck. My only reason for selling is that I just don't foresee having a use for a truck this size in the near future - I'm living in town, no longer pulling a trailer very often, and it doesn't seem right to just leave this great truck sitting idle and unused.

MECHANICAL
The truck is driven frequently and is ready to drive anywhere you'd like to take it - I wouldn't hesitate to take it cross-country tomorrow. It's been a completely reliable vehicle for me. It made a trip from Texas to Connecticut and back in April (towing an approx. 4000 lb camp trailer on the return trip) with no problems or issues. It starts right up in any weather without hesitation and without any smoking or difficulty. It has recently passed the very stringent Austin metro emissions tests with flying colors. The engine is smooth, powerful, and idles well. It accelerates without any hesitation or missing. The transmission and four wheel drive operate exactly as they should. The cruise control works as it should, too, and all power locks are working as they should … never had any problems! The engine compartment is clean and shows original components throughout. Please note that I haven't detailed the engine or done anything to the truck beyond a wash and a vacuum … this is just how it looks! And as nice as the photos are, I think it looks even better in person. A true detail job would make it look absolutely fantastic I'm sure.

A couple of things worth mentioning: first, the rear power windows have begun to slip a bit when powering up. The motors are working fine, but I expect the plastic gears have worn and will need to be replaced. Second, this truck has always had a slight ticking (and I do mean *very* slight) when it first starts up which goes away after about 15 seconds or so as the engine warms up. There are no other problems accompanying this (oil pressure is fine, and there's no smoke or poor running) and it has done this for as long as I've owned the truck. It hasn't gotten better or worse and I don't consider it a huge problem, but I did want to be sure to mention it.

INTERIOR
The interior of the truck is definitely one of its strong points. It is clean, comfortable, and in excellent condition without any odors, dirt, or other unpleasantness. My wife even likes driving it, and she's absolutely fastidious about keeping her cars clean! Carpets and upholstery are an attractive, neutral gray and are very, very clean throughout. No signs of any dogs or other pets. There's some slight wear to the driver's side seat (as shown in the photos) but no tears or rips anywhere. There's also a very slight crack on the dash pad (maybe 1/3" or so) which is also pictured. This could be replaced inexpensively if desired, but it's never really bothered me. Ashtrays are unused, and there's no sign that it has ever been smoked in. There's some light degradation to the steering wheel along the top due to exposure from the sun (Texas sun is harsh!) that's visible in the photos. It could be repaired at an upholstery shop if desired, but it's quite minor, and has never bothered me enough to warrant a repair … it's just slightly rougher in texture than the other areas of the steering wheel.

BODY/PAINT
The exterior of the truck is exceptionally clean and its original white paint still gleams beautifully–it looks absolutely great. The Ranch Hand exterior accessories (heavy duty front bumper/grill protector, rear bumper, and headache rack) are a great feature, too ... a true Texas ranch accessory that would set you back more than $4,000.00. There are no dents or problems to mention, only the various few light scratches here and there from age and use, but FAR less than one would expect. For its age, the paint is in amazingly good condition as the photos attest (and it's worth noting that I didn't even wax this truck for these photos - just a quick hand wash!) The worst area of wear is on the lower front driver's side, where shoes and boots have rubbed the paint a bit from getting in and out of the truck over the years. Please see the photos. Again, nothing substantial, but it does bear mentioning.

If you're reading this, chances are you know all about this classic era of F-Series trucks (and the old square body style that ended for the F350s in 1997, just two years after this '95 model) and understand how hard it is to find a truck of this vintage that hasn't been worked to death and run into the ground. They just don't come around that often. It's not perfect by any means and I've tried to fairly describe its flaws as I see them, but it's also as nice a truck of this age as I've EVER seen and I'll miss it dearly. I believe its new owner will be very, very happy with it … I've been on ebay for close to fifteen years and have sold many cars and vintage motorcycles and have never had an unhappy buyer yet! Please review the photos closely, ask any and all questions and I'll do my best to answer promptly and honestly. Serious inquiries can reach me by phone at 512-484-3186 between 9am-5pm CST. Vehicle has a clear Texas title in my name, ready to be transferred to its new owner.

Ken Block shows us around his Ford F-150 RaptorTrax

Thu, Jan 22 2015

From his Fiesta HFHV to his '65 Mustang Hoonicorn, the inimitable Ken Block has some awesome machinery at his disposal. But arguably the coolest of the bunch is the RaptorTrax. Based on the previous-gen Ford F-150 SVT Raptor - the one with the steel frame and V8 engine - Block's back country snowmobile on steroids packs a set of tracks at each corner, a full roll cage, equipment rack, lighting, jump seats, survival gear... everything he could need for a trip off road. The Gymkhana master showcased the beast a couple of months ago on the slopes of Baldface in Nelson, BC, but now he's followed up with a less eye-popping but more informative clip in which he shows us everything his RaptorTrax has to offer.

Here's more of the Ford GT soundtrack

Mon, Aug 3 2015

You probably won't be surprised to find out that that while we outsiders were speculating on the racing plans for the new Ford GT, the automaker was already testing the American exotic on track. Ford Performance has just posted some footage from one of those tests and it's worth a watch. In spite of that early exhaust promo and Xcar's two in-depth videos on the racer and the road-going coupe, this is the first time we've been treated to sustained looks at the track version just laying in laps and roaring by. Now that we know Ford's plans include running four cars throughout the 2016 season, the early testing makes sense. Ford will have two cars running in the GTE-Pro class in the Tudor United Sports Car Championship and another two in the same class in the FIA World Endurance Championship, all of them campaigned by Chip Ganassi Racing with the Felix Sabates team. Then the company plans to have all four cars at Le Mans, which will be Chip Ganassi's first ever tilt at the French event. If you want some practice picking out exhaust notes come 2016, check out the video above.

Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception

Tue, 25 Sep 2012

It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
