94 Ford F350 Dump Dually Diesel 4x4 Fisher Plow & Sander on 2040-cars
Thomaston, Connecticut, United States
Hello. I bought this truck brand new in 1994. Was bought as a cab and chassie and body and plow were install following year. Body has a 9 ton hoist ( piston ) 2 stage not the 6 ton that was standard then . truck was always garaged. Truck has only 40,000 original miles . tires were replaced 2 years ago and have around 500 miles on them. Our company name will be removed at time of sale.Transmission was replaced by ford due to factory upgrade around 16,000 miles.Truck needs front bumper to be replaced. some rust on front fenders a bit ...it is a 20 year old truck from New England. Only major thing that needs to be fixed is the front spring hanger is broke from the frame in one spot... shop said it would be around 300 to fix. but we are backed up 2 months with work so i will take that off final price of truck . This truck has been a great part of my operations and has given me 20 great years of service. Always had all the fluids and filters changed every year , no matter what milage was on it..Interior is perfect except 1 small tear in driver side seat. Call Mike for any other questions or to talk more. 203-509-4802
I just listed but was asked a few questions so let me post them....I took the truck out of my shop today... it is very dusty in the pictures ...I should have washed it... also it never plowed this year at all... we have 2 new trucks that have replaced the older fleet.. The batteries were replaced this year. And the sander is a fisher all stainless gas unit . My shop guy also told me the truck was at Ford 2 times for the tranny...not from abuse but ford had a bad design... its great now. Thanks |

2015 Ford F-150 shaves 700 pounds, adds 2.7-liter EcoBoost [w/video]
Mon, 13 Jan 2014The Ford F-150 is one of the best selling vehicles on the planet. Considering that, one can imagine that when it comes time for a redesign, there are hardly any half measures. For its lucky thirteenth generation, Ford has gone all-in on the single most important vehicle in its portfolio, redesigning it from the ground up.
The big news is the F-150's new, lightweight, Atlas-inspired body. Ninety-three percent of that new body is made from a sort of aluminum alloy not unlike what the US military uses in its M2 Bradley fighting vehicles and Humvees, and it accounts for up to 70 percent of the F-150's 700-pound weight reduction. As a side benefit, the aluminum body should prove more resistant to dents and dings. Built Ford tough, indeed.
If you're wondering where the other 30 percent of that 700-pound weight loss went, 8.5 percent (60 pounds) came from the increased use of high-strength steel (up from 23 percent to 77 percent) in its ladder-box frame. Ford claims this steel is comparable to some of the heavy duty pickups used by its competitors, with a PSI rating of 70,000.
Experts wonder if aluminum F-150 gives Ford a real advantage
Mon, 17 Mar 2014There's no doubt that Ford is taking a risk in producing the body of its upcoming new F-150 pickup truck in aluminum. What is up for debate, however, is whether aluminum was a wise risk to take in the first place. Wards Auto took the opportunity to poll some experts on the subject of aluminum versus steel in the automotive sector, with somewhat unsurprising results.
Richard Schultz, a project consultant at Ducker Worldwide, which bills itself as "a leading aluminum industry consultant (though they also deal in steels), suggests that the potential drawbacks to aluminum - higher costs, lower supply - aren't really impediments to the auto industry's increased acceptance of the lightweight metal.
Similarly, Randall Scheps, global automotive marketing director for Alcoa, a massive aluminum producer, counters claims that aluminum is less safe for vehicle occupants, suggesting that the use of aluminum can actually increase safety as it could potentially allow for larger vehicles with more crush space than steel.
2016 Ford Explorer embarks at the LA Auto Show
Wed, 29 Oct 2014Twenty-five years since its debut in 1990, Ford will celebrate a quarter century of Explorer models next year with the debut of a refreshed 2016 model at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show on November 19. The Blue Oval is keeping mum on hard details about the updated SUV for now, but the brand promises, "a new look, added capability and additional driver-assist technology," in its announcement.
Company marketing boss Jim Farley elaborated a little more on what to expect. "The new Explorer is still the SUV America fell in love with - a vehicle built for the perfect family adventure," he said in the release that you're welcome to read down below.
An updated Explorer is a pretty big deal for Ford's bottom line. Worldwide, SUVs and crossovers account for about 23 percent of Ford's sales, and the segment is projected to grow to around 29 percent by 2020. Ford further says that SUVs and CUVs are the world's quickest growing segment with demand up 88 percent since 2008.
