Please save me in your sellers list and check out my other listings if I currently have any. I do towing and sometimes come across nice vehicles, mostly Dually trucks, since that's what I personally like to drive. I check them for possible problems and do a test drive. I don't buy junk or vehicles I wouldn't trust driving myself. Some of the vehicles I come across are repos or have expired tags, but are good running vehicles with no problems. If I find any problems I will post them in the listing so you know what you are bidding on. Vehicles with expired registration are especially good for buyers outside of California because back fees owed to California DMV don't apply in other States. You will also be able to legally drive the vehicle back to your State by purchasing a vehicle moving permit that you can get for $18 at any California DMV.


Up for sale I have a very nice 1997 Ford F-450 F-Superduty with only 80,990 original miles. The F-Superduty series has stronger and bigger components with much higher payload and towing capacity compared to the traditional Heavy Duty trucks.

This truck came from a company that ran out of business. Previously this truck used to be a city truck, so you know it has been well taken care of.

It runs and drives good, there are no warning lights on, no overheating, no leaking of any kind. I drove this truck for at least two hours straight in the city and on the freeway. Engine runs strong and transmission shifts through all gears with no slipping and no delay. I noticed a minor jerk when put into "D" (drive) or "R" (reverse) and when it shifts from 1st to 2nd gear. It's not a big jerk, but I took it to a mechanic who test drove the truck and said there is nothing wrong with it, it's just a Superduty truck and that's how they feel. Another mechanically inclined person suggested to change the transmission fluid and filter, but also said there is nothing wrong with the transmission. I just wanted to put it out here for your info, but I was not too concerned there would be anything wrong with a well maintained Superduty truck that has only 80k miles and used to belong to the city.

The exterior is straight with no dents, just the front bumper is slightly bent as you can see in the pictures, but I didn't even noticed it at first. Paint is nice and shiny. This truck use to be yellow and was painted white after it was purchased from the city.

Interior is very clean and in pretty good shape besides a few minor things. The front bench has a couple of rips on the sides and on the back side of the back rest as you can see in the pictures. Also the dash has minor scratches and a few screw holes where a vhf radio was attached. Other than that there is no other damage.

The utility body is in great shape with lots of storage and all the compartments lock with a key. It also has a heavy duty tow hitch, two 12V outlets and two fold out seats in the back. AC/heater, radio and gauges work good. Truck has dual gas tanks and both work, but one doesn't show how much gas is in there. All 6 tires are in good shape and have lots of tread left, about  80%.

This truck holds a clean/clear title and I have it on hand.

IMPORTANT: registration has been out since October 2012 and it it will cost about $650 to bring the registration up to date. This fee does not apply to buyers outside of California.

This truck is being sold as is where is with no warranty. Buyer is responsible for pickup in a timely manner.

If you have any questions or would like to test drive the truck prior to placing a bid you can write me or call or text me @ 310-872-4718.

Thank you and happy bidding.

Ford sued by Versata over alleged software trade secret theft

Thu, Jul 16 2015

Automakers are routinely subject to intellectual property and patent disputes, whether over design similarities or pieces of tech. Ford is now facing a lawsuit for alleged IP theft over a piece of software from a company called Versata, and the business wants $1 billion from the Blue Oval for the violation. With such huge amount of money at stake, the legal situation is already getting complicated. According to The Detroit Free Press, Versata's software is designed to help automakers improve product development by making sure all of a car's countless components work together. The company and Ford had a contract for the system for many years, and they were negotiating an extension at the end of 2014. However, the deal fell through, and the Blue Oval ended the two business' arrangement. Making the legal situation especially tricky is that Ford developed and patented its own software for the same task. The automaker then filed a lawsuit in Michigan to have the court check whether the program violated Versata's IP, according to The Detroit Free Press. Later, the software company registered a lawsuit in Texas and alleged the Blue Oval stole proprietary code. Versata has asked for an injunction against Ford and restitution. "Ford's patented software does not use or infringe any Versata intellectual property and Versata has provided no basis for their claims against us," the automaker said in a statement to Autoblog. "We are confident that we will ultimately prevail in this case and we look forward to the opportunity to present our evidence at trial." With both sides in dispute, that leaves Ford pushing for a hearing in Michigan and Versata for Texas. According to The Detroit Free Press, it could be at least a year before a trial, if not longer. Of course in the meantime, the two sides could conceivably reach a settlement, and the whole issue would disappear.

Rolling footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang hits YouTube [w/video]

Thu, 26 Dec 2013

Just in time for the holidays: Ford took the 2015 Mustang to Route 66 to cook up rolling footage, and we've been given some of the leftovers ahead of the meal. There are no burnouts, no donuts, no revving, and thankfully, no music. It's just two minutes and 26 seconds of the new pony car running free in the desert.
So in case you needed more visualizing help, the video below will help you start imagining how you'll look in your 2014 Christmas present to yourself...

J Mays' legacy

Fri, 15 Nov 2013



Mays is by far not the first designer to use heritage design cues in his work.
The announcement that J Mays will be leaving his chief creative officer role at Ford Motor Company on January 1 ends a 13-year run in one of the industry's top design roles. While best known for having a hand in reborn classics like the Volkswagen New Beetle, Ford Mustang and Thunderbird (above), Mays' legacy is more complicated and nuanced than being considered the father of what is known as "retrofuturism".
