2001 Ford F450 Xlt Cab And Chassis, 1-owner, 7.3l Diesel Flat Bed Dump Truck on 2040-cars
Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, United States
If you've been looking for a well cared for heavy duty truck and want to put your own commercial bed on it than my extremely well cared for 1-Owner Ford F450 with the 7.3L Powerstroke is for you.
Mechanically this truck is solid. Motor fires right up with no hesitation or smoke. Sounds healthy through all the RPM's with no missing or blow by. Transmission shifts beautifully through all the gears with no slipping or funny shifts. Drives down the road like it has 60k on it. No shimmies, brake pulse, or driveline noise. Just an overall great running truck that has been meticulously maintained over the years. I just sold a 2002 with 150k that doesn't even come close to how nice this one drives. A/C is ice cold. Power windows and locks work. Has like new tires all the way around. Has a good PA inspection until 8/14. Get this truck and put whatever bed you want on it. Cosmetically it doesn't look like it has 344k. Paint shines like the day it left the showroom. Definitely garage kept. Body is nice and straight with the exception of a door ding that's shown in the pictures. Has a couple of light scratches but overall your jaw will drop when you see how nice it is. Alcoa wheels are in great shape. Frame is free of rust. Interior is extremely clean and shows little wear. Smells good inside and wasn't smoked in. Overall this is a great platform to throw your bed of choice on to and get on the road knowing what kind of previous owner had this truck. If you have any questions please feel free to give me a call at 717-823-3349. My name is Zach. If you would like to see it in person please call and make an appointment. I am only human and may have missed something that is important to you so please ask any questions before buying. Although this truck is in incredible shape it does have 344k and is not a 2015. A $500 non refundable deposit is due at the end of the auction. This truck is being sold by Platinum Car and Truck Sales, LLC in Elizabethtown, PA |

This is what a 3D-printed liquid metal Ford Torino looks like
Sat, 12 Oct 2013Artist Ioan Florea has encapsulated a 1971 Ford Torino with 3-D-printed liquid metal transferred onto the car using technology that he developed, and the result is a stunningly shiny, seamless design.
"The surface has the highest coefficient of reflectivity never achieved before," Florea told us in an e-mail, using "nano-materials and nano-pigments that create an internal three-dimensional structure and dictate the polymer how to behave." Sure... We'll leave it to him to make any more 3-D-printed liquid metal-transferred art pieces.
Florea grew up in Romania, and the motivation behind picking the old Ford as his canvas came from his childhood memories of what an American car is - "big and wide and fascinating," he says - and the European name of the car itself, which it shares with an Italian city.
Ford sets rules for dealers selling electric cars: Fixed no-haggle pricing
Thu, Sep 15 2022Are you tired of reading about shady dealers marking up cars and taking advantage of buyers? Apparently, Ford is, too. According to The Drive, The Blue Oval issued a warning at its annual dealer conference, telling franchisees that they have until the end of October to decide whether to commit to fixed, no haggle pricing or be cut out of selling EVs. Ford is far from the only auto brand watching its dealers make up their own pricing, but it’s been one of the quickest to act on the issue. Earlier this year, the automaker split its business operations, with one part of the company focusing solely on electric vehicles and powertrain development and the other continuing FordÂ’s gas vehicle development. If dealers want to sell EVs, theyÂ’ll have to opt into the rules for Ford Model E (the brandÂ’s electric business arm) — one of which is a commitment to transparent, no-haggle pricing. Once theyÂ’ve agreed to the terms and conditions, Ford dealers become Model E Certified. The automaker views this as an opportunity to push more of its network toward a model that Tesla and other startups adopted. Many younger buyers favor direct sales, as it limits the in-person time required to buy a car and makes the purchase process easier for many. This is undoubtedly an annoyance for dealers, but theyÂ’ve long been asked to make investments to promote new products and initiatives. The shift to electrification has required the franchisees to make even more significant commitments, and in some cases, sizable financial investments, to meet automakersÂ’ new requirements. Automakers, including Ford, have provided off-ramps for dealers not interested in making the switch to EVs. Cadillac saw an exodus of more than a third of its dealer network after it issued new rules for electric vehicle sales. Ford will likely see some attrition with this policy change, but itÂ’s offering dealers an opportunity to “spend more to make more,” so to speak. Stores already committed to selling EVs can promise to invest an additional amount – up to half a million dollars – to build additional chargers and invest in other equipment. Those that do can earn an “Elite” designation on their Model E certification and are not subject to allocation limits and other speedbumps that other certified dealers see.

Ford Fiesta rally car warms up in Sweden
Tue, 18 Mar 2014Rallycross is seeing a sudden surge in popularity with two series bringing the racing to the US and Europe. The Ford OMSE team is competing in both championships this season, and it saw no reason not to hold practice with a highly modified Fiesta in the snow of Northern Sweden. It brought together Andreas Bakkerud from the European-focused FIA World Rallycross Championship and Patrik Sandell from the North American-focused Global Rallycross series for some training and fun. They certainly appear to be enjoying themselves, too, with some lovely pirouettes in the powder.
If you're unfamiliar with rallycross, the discipline combines the best of rallying and circuit racing. Drivers (with no co-drivers) race rally cars over a circuit that generally mixes dirt and asphalt, and unlike traditional rallying, multiple cars compete side-by-side at once. Even better, it's often a very two-fisted form of motorsports with lots of car-to-car contact. Global Rallycross and World Rallycross will both kick off their seasons in May. With spring on the way, scroll down to watch the Fiesta kick up some of the last snow drifts of the year.
