I am the second owner of this truck and I am going on 5 years of ownership of it. The truck has been great with no complaints, has handled every type of weather, work, or family situation I have thrown at it. But I have purchased a bigger trailer recently and I am needing to buy a 1ton. So this half ton has to go.

2005 F-150 4x4 Super Crew Cab 4 door with 123,000 miles

Private Party Blue Book value $13,100

Silver, 5.4L V8, Automatic Trans, 3.73 Limited Slip rear Differential, Power Windows, Power Locks, CD player, Gray Cloth Interior, Seats 6 with a flip up center console in front. 8 cup holders!, Full tow package with Coolers for just about everything, Line-X spray in bed liner, Flow master Dual Exhaust with turn downs (not to loud but you now can actually tell it has a V8), Tinted Windows (fronts were tinted to match the factory rears).

If you are in the market for an F150 with a 5.4L you will know that there are only two dreaded issues with this engine design that will hurt your pocket book. One is when changing spark plugs, they tend to break off in this engine making a simple task extremely expensive, sometimes over $500 for the job. The other is the passenger side exhaust manifold tends to warp and crack, this job can cost over $1000 dollars depending on how many studs break off in the head. But you are in luck because I just performed both of these less than 1000 miles ago, so you don't have to worry about them for another 100,000 miles or so. I have a bachelors in Automotive Technology and love my vehicles. this one I have treated right since I have owned it (65,000 miles) and it has treated me and my family very well in return.Item is for sale locally and I can end the auction at anytime. If you have any questions Please call or text me at 6.1.8-3.8.4-7.6.8.0 Thanks

2015 Ford Mustang EcoBoost flogged and analyzed by Ignition

Mon, 13 Oct 2014

Aside from the way it looks and perhaps its independent rear suspension, the biggest bit of news on the 2015 Mustang may be the inclusion of its 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine. That blown mill marks the first time since the Mustang SVO of the '80s that a turbo has been fitted under the engine of Ford's pony car.
The Mustang EcoBoost is the subject of the latest episode of Ignition from Motor Trend, giving us a great look at the technical, nitty-gritty side of the turbocharged coupe. Covering it from bow to stern, host Carlos Lago walks us through the boosted Ford before taking to the track for some driving impressions, with particular praise given to the low-end grunt of the 2.3-liter mill.
Check out the full video and then let us know which 2015 Mustang has your interest piqued the most - the EcoBoost four, the 5.0L V8 or the entry-level V6.

Car and Driver lists 10Best for 2013, same as it ever was

Wed, 05 Dec 2012

Forgive us for having the distinct feeling of déjà vu, but it certainly feels like we've been here before. By that we are referring Car and Driver and the announcement of its annual 10Best vehicles for 2013. To be sure, it's an impressive selection of cars that combine heart-pounding performance and frugal sensibilities, but it also represents something of a broken record on the part of C/D. We're not so sure that's a flaw, though, as the resulting list is tough to argue with.
Vehicles like the Ford Mustang, Porsche Boxster, and BMW 3 Series have maintained their high-horsepower spots on this list for several years now. Even on the more practical and nimble end, the Honda Accord, Honda Fit and Mazda Miata have not budged. These continued spots are even in light of redesigns for some vehicles such as the Accord, Boxster and 3 Series.
In fact, the only newcomer to the 10Best list this year are the Scion FR-S/Subaru BRZ twins, which knocked out the Cadillac CTS-V. We think it would have been a huge misstep to have excluded the FR-S/BRZ, even in light of the supercharged Caddy's lamentable departure from 10Best.

Why Ford's Alan Mulally would be right for Microsoft, or any company

Thu, 03 Oct 2013

That Mulally was seriously being considered says a great deal about Microsoft and Mulally.
It appears that the chatter about Ford CEO Alan Mulally possibly leaving early to take over as CEO of Microsoft is losing air pretty fast. What's pretty interesting is that it got any traction in the first place.
