This truck had been a dependable daily driver locally and on frequent trips to Georgia up until it was no longer needed in June 2012. It hasn't been driven regularly since then. I bought the truck used eleven years ago. The radio, A/C and heater work good. The doors glass and rear window sliding glass work fine. The tires are larger than stock 31 x 10.50 R15 LT BF Goodrich Radial Long Trails, and they have plenty of miles left on them. The spare tire is a never used LT235/75R15. The engine has a lot of miles on it but doesn't smoke or use an excessive amount of oil. The transmission has been serviced regularly over the years. This is an old truck that's starting to show it's age, though, so it's being sold as is. The tail gate is from an F-350 XLT that had the trim removed, which is why there are mounting holes visible. There's a little rust over each rear quarter panel wheel well, and on the driver's side front quarter panel behind the tire. Both front headlight assemblies collect condensation inside, but it doesn't affect operation. The rear brakes and wheel cylinders were replaced a month ago. This week the A/C was serviced, the oil and filter were changed, the tires were rotated, and the two-year emissions inspection and the one-year safety inspection (Virginia) were successfully renewed. 


I intend to post and answer all questions about this truck. 

(Update: I added a picture of the bed.)


On Mar-23-13 at 14:20:21 PDT, seller added the following information:

(Update 2: There's mention in the vehicle check report about a duplicate title and a lien. I don't know what occurred before I bought the truck, but I have a clear title issued in 2004 that indicates no liens. There's also mention about the emissions inspection. I have the Mar 17, 2013 two-year pass certificate and it's loaded electronically in the state system, though it may have been too recent to appear on the vehicle check report. I can provide e-mailed scans of both the title and emissions paperwork, though for identity protection reasons, some personal information would be blacked out.)

Ford announces two recalls, 442k vehicles affected in North America

Wed, May 27 2015

Ford is announcing two recalls for North American that affect a total of 442,300 vehicles and multiple model lines. The larger campaign covers the possibility of electric power steering systems that can fail in the 2011-2013 Ford Flex, Taurus, Lincoln MKS, and MKT; the 2011-2012 Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ; and the 2011 Mercury Milan. This recall affects 422,814 vehicles in North America, including 393,622 in the United States, 25,195 in Canada, and 3,997 in Mexico. According to the company, an intermittent electrical connection can cause the power steering to cut out, although manual steering would still work. Ford knows of four minor accidents from this issue, but there are no injuries. Depending on trouble codes from the vehicle, dealers will either upgrade software for the power steering control module or replace the steering gear. The second recall covers 19,486 examples of the 2015 Ford Mustang with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost turbocharged four-cylinder engine with a production date between February 14, 2014, and February 10, 2015 at the Flat Rock Assembly Plant. Specifically, there are 19,095 of these in the US and 391 in Canada. These pony cars can show elevated underbody temperatures, which can lead to degradation of the fuel tank, fuel vapor lines, and parking brake cable seals. There are no reports of accidents, injuries or fires from this, though. To fix things, dealers will install a better-insulated fuel tank shield, add thermal patches around the tank and parking brake cable, and put thermal wraps around the fuel vapor lines. You can read the specific build dates and locations for the models affected by the power steering issue in Ford's press release below the video.

2014 Ford Mustang GT

Fri, 17 May 2013

I was more than a year removed from my last experience with the Mustang GT and its delicious 5.0 V8 when this new 2014 example rolled up to my driveway recently. Good weather and a planned road trip across the state meant that I would get plenty of seat time in this conservatively specified example, too. In total, I logged about 400 miles in a week of driving - not a lot for some of you super commuters out there, but quite a lot for this work-from-home journalist.
The basic formula of the 5.0 has stayed the same for 2014. The 2013 model year saw a number of updates to keep the Mustang fresh until it's replaced with an all-new generation for 2015. So, for its bon voyage tour, the fifth-generation Pony Car has seen only a few modifications: a couple of new paint colors (Oxford White and Ruby Read Metallic), trim and wheel revisions and, sadly, the deletion of the Boss 302 from the Ford lineup. However, while the limited-edition Boss is likely to reappear sometime after the gen-six Mustang makes its debut in 2015, the GT Track Package cars like the one I tested provide at least a partial solution for those looking for hot laps.
