Wentworth, Missouri, United States

 NO RUST!   1997 Ford F-350, 4x4 (hub lock-in), Crew cab, 7.3 Power Stroke Diesel, Long bed, Automatic.  This is a tough, solid, running machine.  Starts up beautifully. Runs perfectly. This is a very, very nice truck in great condition. 

The Exterior of the truck has NO RUST. It has the dual fuel tanks and a goose-neck ball. It has a spray-in rhino liner and husky toolbox. It is in excellent condition with the following exceptions: There is a dent on the tailgate. On the R side bed panel a couple spots of paint/clear-coat were removed by power washing. There is a very small dent behind the RR door that is not very noticeable. We just installed a brand new windshield. Bumper on FR side is bent down a couple inches. 

The interior is in good condition for its age and mileage. It has the very spacious crew cab interior. No rips in the upholstery, but some wear. Radio and CD player work but display panel does not light up. RR window does not work--but we haven't investigated the cause. AC is ice cold. Heater works well. Truck has security system that works well. 

Mechanically the truck is in excellent condition. This is a powerhouse. This Ford 7.3 diesel powerstroke engine is equipped with a "super chip max micro tuner" with 3 settings to adjust speed to torq ratios. Truck starts perfectly, even in the cold. Drives smoothly. There are no issues with steering or linkage. There are no squeaks or squeals or leaks or drips.

I will miss this truck.  The reason we are selling is that we have a lawn care business and are switching from running pickup trucks and trailers to running Isuzu landscaping trucks. 

This truck is one of Ford's top trucks. It has the legendary 7.3. It has the really classic much-loved 1997 body style.

Previous owner was a perfectionist and maintained it perfectly. He was from Colorado & was the second owner--truck was from Texas before that.

You are welcome to come see the truck in person. We are in SW Missouri. Please call with any questions. (417) 635-7139. We could also e-mail more pictures if you want.

Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.

Ford builds USAF Thunderbirds Edition Mustang for charity

Tue, 02 Jul 2013

Each year since 2008, Ford has created a one-off Mustang to celebrate military aviation, and the cars have been auctioned off at the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) Gathering of Eagles charity event to raise money to inspire the next generation of aviators. This year's charity car is the 2014 Ford Mustang GT US Air Force Thunderbirds Edition, which also helps celebrate 60 years of Thunderbirds air show excellence.
Of all the EAA charity cars, this Thunderbirds Edition is the most in depth. Painted to match the F-16 Tomcat fighter jets used by Thunderbirds, this Mustang also gets a widebody kit and 22-inch Forgiato wheels to go with the cockpit's Recaro bucket seats, rear-seat delete and modified navigation screen and gauge cluster. Even the Mustang's projector puddle lights have been changed to show an aircraft silhouette - rather than the Mustang's galloping horse logo - when the doors are open.
Themes for previous EAA charity cars include the Blue Angels, SR-71 Blackbird and the Red Tails as well as the F-22 Raptor-inspired AV8R and AV-X10 "Dearborn Doll" models. Scroll down for the press release for the 2014 Ford Mustang GT US Air Force Thunderbirds Edition, and be sure to check out our galleries for all six aviation-themed Mustangs.

Next Ford Raptor spotted wearing aluminum skin

Wed, 07 May 2014

Well, look at what we have here. Judging from these spy shots, Ford is indeed working on the next generation of its off-road-ready F-150 Raptor pickup truck. We've made no attempt to hide our appreciation for the Baja-style truck, which combines most of the usability of a fullsize truck with heavy-duty suspension components to make a kind of performance vehicle that is unique in the market.
What we haven't known, until now, is whether Ford would push forward with its Raptor program now that it has a completely new F-150 to serve as its base. And that's especially true since Ford made the bold move of switching the bodywork of its best-seller from tried-and-true steel to aluminum. As you can see above, the front and rear of this silver truck are clad in current-gen Raptor bodywork, while the center section that houses the occupants appears to come from the upcoming 2015 F-150.
Dissecting the views above, we note a few interesting tidbits. First, there looks to be a bulge in the truck's hood. Second, we see a new grille between the current Raptor's headlights, sporting a mesh finish and two horizontal bars. Lastly, our eyes can't help but lock in on those burly A-arm suspension pieces down below, not to mention all that ground clearance the specialty suspenders bring to the table.
