This truck was purchased new in 1999 by the Town of Atlanta, Indiana. Since that time, the Utility Department have utilized this truck for plowing snow, transporting parts and supplies, and general daily transportation. This truck is far from perfect, but it's very functional. Here are a few details:
The good:
8' Western Snow Plow
-Joystick control. New pump, and solenoid. Regularly serviced. The plow was completely disassembled repainted a few years ago. Fairly new cutting edge. The trip shock absorber is missing, so the plow slams if tripped. Plow operates well overall.
Western Tailgate Salt Spreader
-A bit rusty, but worked well when we stopped using it a few years ago (we bought a new truck, equipped with a larger spreader). The Salt Spreader has been stored with cover on, in a shed, out of the weather.
Truck has many new parts:
-New spark plugs and boots (129,269mi)
-New rear shocks (126,879mi)
-New alternator (121,283mi)
-New shift linkage bushings, plunger, and tube (120,273mi)
-New blower motor, blower motor resistor, fan switch, temperature blend door actuator (119,236mi)
-New transmission filter and fluid (119,060mi)
-New starter (117,700mi)
-New heater core (116,000mi)
-New right front axle seals, axle housing, hub bearing (111,715mi)
-New front and rear brake rotors and pads, front right/left calipers, right rear caliper (110,708mi)
In addition to the above list of repairs, the truck has been regularly serviced since 2008 (incomplete/missing records pre-'08). Regular oil changes, front end lubrication, fluid checks, filter changes, etc have been performed. Full coolant flush was performed at 119,060mi. Tires are at about 40% tread. The truck includes a good matching spare tire.
There don't appear to be any leaks from the engine, transmission, differentials, cooling system, fuel system, etc. The stains on the ground in the pictures are from another piece of equipment.
The Weatherguard toolbox pictured is included with the truck. The lid of the toolbox no longer stays up on its own, due to bad/broken struts. Its also pretty rusty, particularly on the lid.
Now the bad:
-The engine uses around 1qt of oil every 1000-1500mi.
-The truck runs rough at idle, and hesitates/misfires badly under moderate acceleration. Once cruising speed is reached, the truck does pretty well.
-The engine knocks a bit.
-The exhaust manifolds leak a bit.
-The left front axle needs work (clanks when driving while engaged).
-The front end is worn. Ball joints may need to be replaced.
-The A/C system does not operate. The truck seems to be stuck in heat, because turning the temperature selector to "cold" does not seem to effect the air temperature. As stated above, the blend door actuator has been replaced. May need temperature control switch?
-The fuel gauge does not work (always reads "Full").
-The brakes work well, but squeal when used.
-The under-bed spare tire cable is broken.
-The left front wheel cover is missing.
-The headliner is falling. It's currently pinned up.
-The dome light is missing its cover, and has no bulb.
-There are cracks, scuffs, and a few holes in the dashboard.
-The exterior of the truck has dents, scratches, and rust all around. As seen in the pictures, the tailgate is badly dented, but operates correctly.
Please message if you have any questions. I have been as accurate as I can be, but I will update this listing if I remember anything else.
Local pickup only.
The 1999 Ford F-250, and any accessories attached thereon, including, but not limited to the Western Snow Plow, and Western Salt Spreader, are being sold together, AS IS. No warranties are hereby written or implied.

Car companies used to cook up sales with recipe books
Fri, 08 Aug 2014The evolution of automotive marketing has undergone a number of strange phases. Few, though, match the strangeness of the 1930s to 1950s, when automotive marketers turned to cookbooks as a means of promoting their vehicles. Yes, cookbooks. We can't make this stuff up, folks.
This bizarre trend led to General Motors distributing cookbooks under the guise of its then-subsidiary Frigidaire. Ford, meanwhile, offered a compilation of recipes from Ford Credit Employees (shown above). The cookbook-craze wasn't limited to domestic manufacturers, though. As The Detroit News discovered, both Rolls-Royce and Volkswagen got in on the trend, although not until the 1970s.
The News has the full story on this strange bit of marketing. Head over and take a look.
eBay Find of the Day: 25-station video gaming trailer w/ bonus Ford F-250
Fri, Nov 28 2014Why, you might be asking yourself, is Autoblog showing me an eBay Motors listing for a 2006 Ford F-250 and a box trailer (with a badly cropped photo to boot)? It's not because we're highly interested in this blue-collar rig, to be sure, but rather because we're interested in throwing the greatest Forza party of all time. Housed in that innocuous white 26-foot trailer is a gamer's delight, with 25 Xbox 360 systems connected up to 25 high-definition monitors and 24 headsets to keep everyone locked into the action (one of the stations is outside the trailer). When connected up to one of two included generators, the setup allows for two-dozen combatants to square off, back-to-back and head-to-head. Sure, the Buy It Now price of $79,000 seems steep considering the trailer will need about ten grand worth of Xbox One or Playstation 4 upgrades in the near future. But that doesn't mean you couldn't squeeze out a few more years of massive multiplayer fun. Check out the listing here, and do let us know if you buy it, we'd love to come over and game.

Ford looks back on 50 years of the Mustang in Detroit
Tue, 14 Jan 2014Ford has something special sitting in its booth here at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show. In fact, it brought two special somethings in the form of the Ford Mustang 1 Concept that first saw the light of day in 1962 and the very first production Mustang that rolled off the production line in 1964.
These classic creations are sharing floor space with the brand-new 2014 Mustang in honor of the pony car's 50th Anniversary. Since Ford's latest 'Stang already made its auto show debut (at a number of locations, including Los Angeles), we think it's pretty cool that the Blue Oval did something special for its home-town show.
Check out both the Mustang 1 Concept and first production 1964.5 Mustang above and below.
