 Drive Solo in the HOV/Carpool lanes!  Make your commute quick and easy.  Fill up a tank for half the price! 

You are bidding on a 2001 Ford F150 CNG XL with 126,806 miles on it.  It was purchased in 2011 from a dealer and had only one owner up to that time.  When purchased there were 119,000+ miles on it, so we've only put about 7,000 miles on it in the past two years.  It was purchased as a commute vehicle to allow my wife to zip through traffic on the freeway, but rarely used otherwise.  Almost all the miles are highway miles.

This truck is in great condition.  Great cosmetically inside and out.  No mechanical issues.  Clean title and no accidents, not even minor ones.  Tires have plenty of tread.  New battery and shocks were added in 2011, as was a replacement thermostat.  No issues or repairs other than that. 

This truck operates on Natural Gas only.  It can be filled up in a number of different locations, or even at your own home (with a special pump).  I have refueled it at either the local PG&E station or at the San Jose Airport.  Either work great.  Natural Gas burns cleaner than gasoline, and is about half the price, so its nice not having to take out a mortgage to fill up the tank on a truck. 

This truck also comes with the optional 3rd CNG tank, which brings the range to about 300 miles.  Tanks were inspected in 2011.  This is important.  By law, CNG tanks need to be inspected every three years, but in my experience, neither dealers nor consumers ever have their tanks inspected.  If you are in the market for a CNG vehicle please ensure that the tanks have been inspected (or have them inspected yourself prior to use).  The tanks are rated for 3600PSI, although they can also accept 3000PSI nozzles if you are at a station that does not offer 3600PSI (I'm not aware of any in my area, but there may be some elsewhere)

The sound system was upgraded when we purchased the truck, to a new Sony head unit with CD player and Bluetooth capability.  WOrks great for taking calls from the road, and it even wirelessly streams music (e.g., Pandora) from your smartphone to the sound system. 

Mechanically eveything runs fine.  Cosmetically, the exterior is in great shape.  I have tried to take pictures showing all parts of the vehicle.  There are a few tiny paint chips on the hood, and the front bumper has some scratches in it, both of which I have shown.  There are the occasional minor paint chip around the vehicle, but nothing you would notice unless you looked very closely.  Way above average for a 12 year old vehicle.  The truck bed is a long bed, although the CNG tanks take up some of the space, so it is the equivalent of a normal bed.  The bed itself has some worn paint and scratches in it, but it is not noticeable from outside of the vehicle unless you have the gate down.  If it bothers you, you can put a bed liner over it, although my wife never seemed to notice because she never used the bed. 

Interior is in great shape.  No tears in the seat.  One of the visors shows some minor wear.  One visor clip (the part above the windshield that you snap the visor to when moving it back into position) doesn't work, although the visor holds in place fine without it.  Steering wheel shows some minor wear.

The engine is a Triton V8 5.4L, very powerful engine that can tow a boat (with an optional trailer hitch). 

If you are local to the San Francisco Bay Area and wish to test drive the vehicle, please let me know.  I cannot ship the vehicle myself but if you wish to hire a vehicle delivery service (I can recommend some if need be), then I am certainly willing to cooperate with them.
