for sale 1997 ford f350 6x6

the good ---the truck is very strong and tight, has bumper trailer hitch ball and inside bed hitch ball, has trailer brake and light control inside cab, has very good  ( matching tires) all the way around,     

                has 2 new interstate batteries, has pretty good interior but has some dash cracking over the glove box, good cloth seat, good floor, good trans and rear end has good exhaust system        

               all the way from front to back. I like the truck, but I don't need another truck. with just a little work it would make someone a real nice truck.

the bad----to begin with I am not a mechanic you might say I went to the old school. the brake pedal goes almost to the floor, and so does the emergency brake, therefore I think it needs rear brakes 

               shoes,   the engine wants to crank for a few seconds before it starts. that being said I think it may need fuel filters, I don't know. when it starts it runs perfect and has the old power/stroke

               diesel sound. the body does have a small rust spot on the passenger side on the bottom rear  corner, there are also a few light scratches on the passenger door below the mirror.

               I have also lost the door lock key. also the speedometer does show 260,000 miles I don't know if that is right or not. I only drive the truck around on the farm. I bought the truck from my son

I did forget to mention that the a/c is not putting out cold air. all the components are there and hooked up, I think it probably just needs Freon. I am sorry for my forgetfulness.

I also forgot to mention the rear of the bed over the lights overtop of the license plate is  some rust, but can be used as is. I will try to upload more pics.  thanks

Detroit automakers gain market share simultaneously for first time in 20 years

Wed, 01 May 2013

While monthly sales figures might be an easy way of tracking the progression of the auto industry and individual automakers, looking at market share might be more indicative of how each company is actually standing up against its competitors. For the Detroit Three automakers, they have collectively lost almost 30 percent of the market over the last 20 years, but now, for the first time since 1993, Ford, General Motors and Chrysler have each posted market share gains at the same time.
According to Automotive News, Ford's share increased the most by 0.7 percent, GM was up 0.5 percent and Chrysler rose marginally by 0.2 percent, giving the Detroit automakers a total market share of 45.6 percent. As for the Japan's Big Three, the article reports that Toyota is up by 0.7 percent, Nissan is down the same amount and Honda has seen "little change."

NHTSA investigating 725k Ford, Mercury vehicles for stalling issue

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

Owners of Ford Escape, Mercury Mariner, Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan models, listen up. According to a report on Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened an investigation into these four vehicles totaling an estimated 725,000 units. The investigation appears to center around a malfunctioning throttle body on non-hybrid models of the 2005-2012 Escape and 2011-2012 Fusion. With Mercury dying off after the 2011 model year, this probe will also apply to the 2005 through 2011 Mariner and the 2011 Milan. There has been some discussion around the Escape stalling issue for some time now, but this investigation appears to be larger in scope than before.
Though not a recall yet, NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) has received 123 complaints of stalling or surging vehicles, while Ford itself has logged 1,472 complaints. The investigation report, which is posted below, seems to indicate that a faulty circuit board for the throttle body could cause the vehicle to go into limp mode, which, according to NHTSA, could cause complaints of both stalling and surging.
