I have a very well taken care of 2006 Ford F-250 im offering up for sale. Im the 2nd owner of the truck, previously owned by a Senior Rancher in Austin, Tx where the truck had an easy life from new to around 100k miles. Truck currently has 118k. I bought the truck with the intentions of it being a great work truck for my small business, only to realize I could quite frankly now get by with a Ranger. Truck has Blue Texas Title. 

At the commencement of my ownership I made a large amount of modifications to improve the reliability of this truck, to make it last like a 7.3. I have a wealth of knowledge when it comes to Diesel engines, specifically Powerstrokes and more specifically 6.0s. The truck had ARP Head Studs installed prior to my ownership along with an EGR Delete which I improved on both recently. It has a 4" turbo back exhaust system with a muffler (I like to hear myself think) by MBRP. It has an Airaid cold air intake, CFM+ Intake elbow (reduces turbo lag), 58V Bulletproof Industrial FICM (longer life, crisper throttle response), It has modified turbo up pipes and exhaust manifolds (reduces turbo lag, crisper throttle response). The EGR scoop has been removed, and the EGR Cooler has been welded on both ends. It has a performance machine coolant filtration kit (due for a new filter at 120k, coolant filters promote oil cooler life). It has Ford's updated fuel pressure regulator to promote injector life. I also updated the high pressure oil system with an updated STC Fitting, Updated Stand Pipes, and Dummy Plugs. The truck will never ever have a high pressure oil system problem. Injectors health is currently operating in the 95-98% balance table (like brand new) sense I replaced injector number 1 which was showing signs of getting weak at 115k. 

Upon purchasing the truck, it was giving some subtle warning signs that maybe it needed the head gaskets replaced even with the ARP studs installed. I didn't chance it, I ditched the gaskets, went with Victor Rinez Black Onxy Teflon Coated MLS head gaskets and replaced the oil cooler while I was in there and has made a world of difference in how smooth the truck runs. I'm under the impression that the first time the heads were done, it was by a dealership. I personally spent from Saturday to following Sunday replacing the head gaskets and oil cooler and making the above listed updates and modifications when the truck came apart. I have documentation of all the prep done to the truck, along with photographic evidence. With all the care put into this truck, it will probably never have to have major engine service for the remainder of the trucks life span and be reliable for its new owner. 

The interior of the truck is in excellent shape. It has 2 minor eye sores, one being the driver seat showing some normal wear, and both of the switch panels on the front doors have screws through them to hold them in place because of broken clips. The truck has a touch screen head unit, with Navigation, Bluetooth, AM/FM, DVD, CD, Back-Up Camera, and Rockford Fosgate EVERYTHING sound system. It has 4 6X8" Replacement door speakers, Tweeters, Amplifier, and 2-10" Sub woofers to make a very crisp and well rounded sound system. 

I have a brand new never installed 2.5" Lift, not leveling, Lift Kit, for the new owner should they be interested. It will still have some rake but will clear up to 35" tires. Tires on the truck currently are okay, will probably make it another 5-10k. Brakes have aprox 5K sense new, has Rancho shocks. I have Harley Davidson headlights available. Truck has currently been getting 5k oil changes with Valvoline Premium Blue, Ford Filters, and 10k Ford Fuel filter replacements with service logs. 

The body on the truck is very clean and straight. It does have a few very minor scratches that have been touched up, and a few parking lot dings but has zero rust, has never been wrecked / doesn't have any repair I'm aware of or can see. It has a custom Ranch Hand front bumper, and Frontier rear bumper. Does not / has never had a goose neck hitch. 

I have an SCT9600 that came with the truck but I have always been afraid of it. It goes with the truck should the new owner want it. 


Come take a look and judge for yourself. The truck is in great shape and will speak for itself. I have taken alot of time and put tons of care to be sure this will be a reliable truck. I refused to be a statistical 6.0 owner. 

Will help buyer arrange delivery or shipping, Mileage is going up daily as I am still driving this truck

I reserve the right to end the auction early as the truck is for sale locally

Sold as is, where is, with no warranty expressed or implied 

Not interested in trades, will not owner finance.

Watch this lead sled go rallying in Finland

Thu, 19 Jun 2014

Custom cars generally fit into neat little boxes in terms of how they are used. For example, you're unlikely to see a modded Corvette going rock crawling; it's just not what it's made for (though we bet it'd look awesome, for a minute). In the same way, chopped, channeled and customized '50s hot rods aren't really meant to go racing. They look great and go fast, but they are generally more cruisers than sports cars.
However, if this video is any indication, the people of Finland don't adhere in these stereotypes, because this rodder is happy to play in the dirt with his lead sled.
According to the video, the driver is a member of the Ford-Freak Club of Finland, and he clearly knows how to have some fun. Possibly inspired by his country's great rally drivers, he gets the tail way out going around this gently curving gravel track. The stunt is somewhat reminiscent of the stock cars races on the sand at Daytona Beach, and this is probably close to what it sounded like too. Scroll down to watch a very cool Finn getting his hot rod a little dirty.

Ford faces class-action lawsuit for selling vehicles without brake override systems

Fri, 29 Mar 2013

A total of 20 Ford customers are suing the automaker in a class-action lawsuit for selling vehicles "vulnerable to unintended acceleration." According to Reuters, the suit names 30 models built between 2002 and 2010 with electronic throttle control systems but without a brake override system. Those include the 2004-2012 F-Series pickups and the 2005-2009 Lincoln Town Car. Adam Levitt, a partner with the law firm of Grant & Eisenhofer says the plaintiffs in the case want "to be compensated for their economic losses by having overpaid for cars that contained defects." Levitt contends that the plaintiffs would not have bought their vehicles or paid less for them had they known there was no brake override system in place.
Ford began installing brake override systems in its vehicles beginning in 2010. In response to the lawsuit, Ford has pointed to research by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that indicated that unintended acceleration is mostly caused by driver error, saying in a statement that, "NHTSA's work is far more scientific and trustworthy than work done by personal injury lawyers and their paid experts."
Belville et al v. Ford Motor Co. will be heard in US District Court in the Southern District of West Virginia.

Chrysler called out over lackluster Ram Runner by racer who helped develop it

Fri, 11 Apr 2014

Fans of off-roading and desert blasting might recall that Chrysler offers an aftermarket conversion that can turn a Ram 1500 into a road-legal desert racer, called the Ram Runner. The kit, sold through Mopar, includes some significant suspension upgrades, body tweaks and a brawnier cat-back exhaust for the truck's 5.7-liter V8.
Considering all of this, comparisons with the almighty Ford F-150 SVT Raptor are common. Among the off-road community, that makes these two a sort of Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang for people that prefer driving on dirt. In the Race-Dezert forum, the discussion as to which truck was better was proceeding as normal - Ram fans said their piece and Ford fans said theirs. Then, a man named Kent Kroeker offered up his two cents.
See, Kroeker is a Baja racer, and the man that helped develop the Ram Runner. Despite his association with the truck, though, he had some less than kind words for Chrysler and the Ram Runner.
