1997 F-350 Crew Cab Power Stroke ,4x4, Long Bed on 2040-cars
Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, United States
|
This is a hard to find classic Ford diesel truck. I liken it to a Boss 429 Mustang. It's the final year of production for this sharp body style. F-350 4X4 with the Dana60 straight front axle, four door cab and the long bed. This old truck is in very nice condition for it's age. It has 3.55 gearing with plenty of pep, but will run down the highway at 80MPH. It runs,drives,stops,steers and shifts very well. You can drive it on the interstate with a thumb and a finger. It doesn't shake, shimmy or pull. This truck has been garage kept and adult owned. It's bone stock and never messed with or abused. It's never had a gooseneck or a fifth wheel hitch. It does have a class 3 rear hitch with both electrical plugs and an electric brake control under the dash. The tires are oversized LT 305/70R 16 with 4 to 7/32 nds. of tread. The tall tires do cause the speedometer to read a little slow.The interior is near perfect and the body is very nice with the exception of the rear wheel wells. When I got it out to take these pictures it did smoke a little until it warmed up. But, it had not been started for a month or so. It's very nice and dry underneath and doesn't leak on the garage floor. I have listed the defects and will answer any questions that you may have about the truck. You may come see and drive it before bidding if you like. I want the buyer to be pleased, and if you like the older Ford diesel trucks, you will surely like this one. Check out the pictures, as I tried to include all aspects of the good and the bad points. Don't be affraid to drive this truck home if you are the winning bidder. I'm located in South Central PA. just off of I-81. Please don't try to scam or mislead me in any way. I would like to let the auction do it's thing and not sell it early. A $500 Pay Pal deposit is due within 24hr. of the end of the auction, and pick up of the truck should be within 10 days with the balance being paid in cash. Thanks for looking and good luck.

Ford investing $500M in engine plant for 2.7L EcoBoost production
Sun, 30 Mar 2014Ohio is a hot area for Ford at the moment with the announcement just a few weeks ago that production of the next-generation F-650/F-750 medium-duty trucks would move from Mexico to the Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, Ohio. Now, Ford is investing $500 million to hire 300 workers at its Lima Engine Plant in Lima, Ohio, to add production of the twin-turbo 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 for the 2015 F-150.
The latest investment will be used to add a new flexible engine assembly system and renovate 700,000 square feet of the plant for machining and assembly areas. The Lima factory already builds Ford's 3.5-liter and 3.7-liter Duratec V6 engines. The plant opened in 1957, and it's on track to build its 40 millionth engine later this year.
Ford claims that the 2.7-liter EcoBoost will offer V8 performance with better efficiency in the F-150. It comes standard with intelligent stop/start that doesn't activate when the truck is towing or in four-wheel drive, and it's made from a combination of compacted graphite iron and aluminum for low weight and high strength. The company says that V6 engines have already proven popular in the F-150 with 57 percent of trucks in 2014 being equipped with either the naturally aspirated 3.7-liter or turbocharged 3.5-liter EcoBoost engines.
Ford trademarking 'Mach 1,' possibly for Mustang
Thu, 24 Oct 2013A legendary name might be accompanying the redesigned, 2015 Mustang when it finally makes its world debut - Mach 1. Stumbled upon by the team at Ford Authority, the Mach 1 title was found in a trademark filing with the US Patent and Trademark Office, and would revive a name last used on the fourth-generation, 2003 Mustang.
While the the 2003 vintage was well and good, the Mach 1 is really remembered for a three-year run from 1969 to 1971 - it's best to just forget the emissions-choked 1972 to 1978 Mach 1s - when power output ranged from a modest 250 horsepower with the two-barrel, 351-cubic-inch Windsor V8 to "375 hp" (actual output was rumored to be well north of 400 horsepower) with the righteous, 429-cubic-inch Super Cobra Jet V8.
What does the title hold for the sixth-generation Mustang? It's tough to say. The fanatics at Ford Authority seem to think Mach 1 could take the place of the Shelby GT500 at the top of the Mustang hierarchy, which sounds like a valid argument. At the same time, we could see the SVT Cobra moniker returning for the flagship model, and the Mach 1 doing battle with the Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 (unless the Boss 302 were to return). Confounding things is the historical precedent - the Mach 1 was responsible for the death of the Mustang GT in 1969, so it might make sense as a volume performance model.
Ford reports 58% drop in Q2 profits on European losses
Wed, 25 Jul 2012
Ford Motor Company announced Wednesday that it has posted a $1 billion profit for the second quarter of 2012. That sounds like good news for the Blue Oval, until you take into account that Ford posted a $2.4 billion profit for Q2 a year ago. That is a substantial 58 percent loss.
Ford also posted $465 million in international losses, with $404 million of those losses coming directly from Europe. The automaker also increased its European loss projections to $1 billion for 2012, due in large part to the economic crisis overseas, which has resulted in increased unemployment and decreased consumer confidence.
