This is a 3 owner truck. I have owned this truck since November 2008. When I purchased it in 08 it had 92,724 miles. The truck has 176,850 miles on it now. The oil and filter has been charged every 4,000 miles and the fuel / air filters every 12,000. I have done all the oil and filter changes myself and have lubricated the chassis at every oil change. I have always used Wix filters and used Stanadyne fuel conditioner. I have had the transmission flushed by Ford at 94,008 & 159,360 miles. The differential fluid was changed at 120,098 miles with Amsoil synthetic. The front wheel bearings were packed at 94,289 & 170,270 with Amsoil synthetic grease. The radiator was flushed with distilled water and replaced with new coolant at 146,323. I did a complete brake job at 170,270 which included turning front rotors & rear drums, replaced both front calipers and both rear wheel cylinders, master cylinder, brake booster, diversion valve and finally the vacuum pump. ( the vacuum pump was the problem the whole time.... It just happened to be the last thing I replaced !!!!! .) The tires were installed on 10/22/10 at 133,784. They are Firestone Transforce HT. the tires are rated for 60,000, they still have a lot left. I have them rotated every 8 to 10,000.The gentleman that I purchased the truck from had the transmission rebuilt at 78,673. It has a Axiom heavy duty converter and a Transco shift kit. I have describe the history of the maintenance as good as possible. The A/C blows cold and the heater is hot. Every thing works as it should. No rust. The paint looks great, there are a few dings but not worth worrying about. I took a pic of the worst one on the rear passenger door. My portable cover got caught by the wind and the pole rubbed the door. I used this truck to pull a small bumper pull camper that weighed around 5,200 pounds. This truck will get 20 mpg at 2000 rpm... Around 60 mph empty, around 14 mpg pulling my trailer. As far as the interior, it looks almost new. The seats and carpet show very lite wear. They have always been covered and will include the covers. The truck will also include a complete set of Huskey floor liners. I left the rear set cover on in the pictures, just because it was difficult to install. It is just a clean as the front seats. I would be very surprised to see a 1997 as clean as this anywhere for sale. If you are the buyer of this truck you will not be disappointed. If you have any questions e-mail them to me. You can pick this up locally or I can help you arrange for transport. The buyer will be responsible for delivery cost. I can also be contacted at 979-236-6003.

Thieves still love older Hondas and pickups most, says NICB [w/video]
Wed, 20 Aug 2014No one wants to have their car stolen, but a new study by the National Insurance Crime Bureau has some bad news for older Honda owners and pickup drivers. Fortunately, it has better news for drivers overall. The group is reporting that according to preliminary data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, thefts were down 3.2 percent in 2013 (versus 2012) to fewer than 700,000 cars. That's the lowest figure since 1967. That's also less than half of the peak of over 1.66 million thefts in 1991. "The drop in thefts is good news for all of us," says NICB President and CEO Joe Wehrle. "But it still amounts to a vehicle being stolen every 45 seconds and losses of over $4 billion a year."
Honda drivers might not find it such good news with older Accord and Civic models topping this year's theft study. Toyota and Dodge can't really celebrate, either, with two models each on the list, as well. Overall, this year's list was split evenly between foreign and domestic models, which were mostly pickups.
The 10 most likely vehicles to be stolen in 2013 were:
Amazon looking to bring Kindle to your next car?
Mon, 25 Feb 2013Maybe so. The online retailer and digital media monolith recently announced the Amazon Cloud Player, an application for Ford Sync that allows users to stream media from their Amazon Cloud account directly to a Ford vehicle. This foray into automotive technology got the minds at Gigaom.com thinking about what could be next for Amazon. As Kevin Fitchard writes, the logical step is to make audio versions of your Kindle library selections available in your car. As he points out, Amazon has already laid the groundwork for such a move.
Amazon pulled the sheets back on Whispersync for Voice last year. The tech pairs ebooks with an Audible book for a small extra fee, allowing users to either read along with a narrator or switch between audio and text versions on command. Fitchard says it wouldn't be some great leap to apply the same principles to a car, where voice recognition software would allow users to pause or select chapters without ever taking their eyes off of the road.
It all sounds just fine to us, but Amazon hasn't said a thing about such a move. Still, we wouldn't be surprised to see the company come down this road in the near future just the same.
