We can deliver to the winning bidder anywhere in the eastern part of the U.S for the cost of fuel. If you are in the west/Midwest/south it will be up to you to arrange transport/delivery.

This truck in my opinion would be in the best 10% available as far as condition for this model/age vehicle.
We bought it in March of this year to do a camping tour of the U.S and it performed flawlessly.
Now it is time for us to return home so regrettably we have to sell.
The truck had 174,600 miles on it when we bought it from the original owner in Wyoming. We have since put about 11,000 miles on it. It has ZERO body rust and was always garaged and maintained.
Here is a list of what we have added.
Rear firestone airbags, New tires all round (now have 75% tread left), New shock absorbers all round, New power steering pump, New vacuum pump,New batteries 850 amp motorcrafts. Changed all fluids diffs,transfer case etc,New air filter,fuel filter,new serpentine belt. Torklift tie downs on front and happi jac tabs on rear for camper tie down.(we sold camper).
Everything mentioned above is OEM no cheap replacement parts!
This truck is in overall great condition and ready to go anywhere!

Extras included are- grill guard, tekonsha electric trailer brake controller, mr pickup rear step/hitch, side steps and A.R.E camper shell.

Note: we bought the camper shell after we sold our slide in camper just to keep our stuff dry. It is in good condition but is NOT a perfect fit for this model, I think it is off a newer model. As I said it works fine.

The only thing that doesn't work is the cassette player but I think it is an easy fix, I never bothered because we just used our mp3 player.

The rear passenger locking knob, the very top is broken off it and it is a little sticky as you have to press the central locking button twice to get it to lock, the rest of the doors are fine.

The drivers seat has a little wear but really minimal , it has seat covers on both front seats, the rear seat has rarely been used by the look of it.

The top half of the steering wheel has some wear as to be expected but nothing major.

Everything else in the interior is in great condition.

The paint is in very good condition,but it has a lot of very,very light scratching that can easily be polished out and hardly noticeable.

There are in total three dings from hailstones, one about like a thumb print on the hood and two on the roof about like golf ball size, none of these has cracked the paint or anything so not really an issue.

It has a small fleck of paint about the size of your little finger nail off the drivers door, the original owner told me it was there from new, can easily be touched up.

The top rail of the pickup bed has some marks where a head ache rack was bolted on but nothing as far as damage, just small cosmetic stuff.

The bed is straight with no major dings/damage, it has a rubber mat in it which has helped protect it.

The tail gate has a ding in the bottom left corner where a 2 inch piece of pipe slid forward off a trailer (original owner) it isn't deep and could be fixed without too much bother.

All of the above are little things that don't affect the trucks functionality in any way, I just mention them because I am fussy and to make you aware of everything I can.

The engine is strong and uses no oil between changes and the oil looks clean even after 3-5k miles, I have never had a diesel like that before, it usually turns black after a week!

The original owner told me he put a new clutch and flywheel in it at 100,000 miles, it is still the dual mass fly wheel and it seems tight.

Hubs lock in and out good and I don't think the 4x4 has been used much , we used it about twice!

Also will throw in my tool kit and a few spares, probably 200-300 dollars worth.

I can't think of much else to say, if you have any Q,s please ask and happy bidding

And to the lucky person who wins, you are getting a great solid truck. I looked for a long time when I bought this to find the one I wanted.

you can also call me if you want to discuss anything about the truck or more pics etc. 303 325 4574 Doug.

Mulally will stay close to Ford after he steps down, plans to advise Fields [w/video]

Fri, 27 Jun 2014

Ford CEO Alan Mulally has less than a week left in his role of leading the Blue Oval before he hands off duties to Mark Fields on July 1. It doesn't look like Mulally is going to be shuffling off into his retirement anytime soon, though. The 68-year-old is being rather secretive about his next move, but he tells Bloomberg in a recent interview that he plans to stay close to Ford. Also, if Fields wants to ask for any advice, Mulally is happy to help.
Mulally took over at Ford in 2006 and led the company through a seriously rough patch in the auto industry. According to Bloomberg, he became famous or his Thursday meetings where executives were forced to deal with any problems before they could leave. Since announcing his retirement from Ford in May, Mulally has been insuring a smooth transition of power by traveling the world to all of company's major locations and saying goodbye to employees and dealers.
In terms of the future at Ford, Mulally doesn't predict any big changes in management style because the rest of the executive team is staying in place. He believes that Fields is going to maintain the processes already in place to keep things going. After all, it seems to be working. The company is predicting a return to profitability in Europe next year and is opening 88 new dealers in China. If the business could get its recalls under control, things could get even better.

George W. Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 fizzles with $300,000 bid at Barrett-Jackson [UPDATE: w/video]

Sun, 20 Jan 2013

Despite some truly impassioned pleading from Jay Leno himself - including calling on Arizona's notoriously Republican-rich voters to beat the $600,000 level set the last time Leno sold a vehicle for this particular charity... in California - bidding for George Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 pickup truck stalled at $300,000.
All proceeds will be sent to the Fisher House Foundation, so at least it's $300K going to a good cause. Feel free to check out the live image gallery above, which includes shots showing Leno's skills helming the auction, and read through the official auction description below.
*UPDATE: Video of the auction and Leno's prods to the crowd for more money can now be seen below.

2016 Ford Focus RS shows up in Geneva, still bound for America [w/video]

Tue, Mar 3 2015

Representing the super-hot hatchback movement at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show, we have the 2015 Ford Focus RS, the third-generation to wear the performance-focused designation. Bound for America for the first time, it's fair to say we're darn excited for the Focus RS and its 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder. With at least 315 horsepower under the hood and the long-awaited inclusion of an all-wheel-drive system, there's little arguing that the RS will be seriously quick off the line. It should be darn good through the bends, too. The all-wheel-drive system packs a Dynamic Torque Vectoring Control system that sends up to 70 percent of the power to the rear axle. On top of the AWD's torque vectoring ability, the Focus RS adds a brake-based torque vectoring system, which transfers power laterally, as needed. Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires should only help keep the RS glued to the tarmac. A three-pedal setup is the sole transmission option, which should delight purists. According to Ford, both the clutch and the trans itself have been bolstered to handle the 2.3-liter's power. Ford also comprehensively upgraded the looks of the Focus RS relative to the lesser Focus ST. Its enormous rear wing and the back bumper's rear diffuser complement the car's menacing face. The ST's center-exit exhaust has been ditched for a meaty set of pipes, while the car on display in Geneva shows off a different set of alloys than what we saw during the car's original debut. Check out our full gallery of live photos of this hot Ford, available up top. And be sure to check out our Short Cut of the new hot hatch by scrolling down.
