F350 LARIAT SHORT BED DUALLY - FACTORY ORDERED - ARIZONA TRUCK

I ORDERED THIS TRUCK FROM THE FACTORY FROM MY FORD DEALER IN MICHIGAN WHERE I SPEND SUMMERS. LABOR DAY I ALWAYS DRIVE BACK TO ARIZONA WHERE IT IS IN MY GARAGE, UNTIL THIS LAST FALL. IT HAS NEVER BEEN THROUGH A CAR WASH AND HAS BEEN PERSONALLY WASHED AND WAXED USING MAGUIAR'S AND THEIR ORBITAL WHEEL. IT HAS BEEN BABIED.

UPON PURCHASING IT I HAVE ADDED THE FOLLOWING:

F450 OXFORD WHITE GRILLE (NO CHROME HERE).

TITAN 52 GALLON REPLACEMENT TANK AND REPROGRAMMED COMPUTER.

CUSTOM SUN SHADE, OEM RUBBER MATS AS THE OIL BUILD UP AND HEAT IN ARIZONA WHICH IF NOT ADDED COULD CAUSE ASPHALT OR OIL TO TRACK INTO TRUCK ONTO CARPET.

SNUGTOP LOW PROFILE HARD TONNEAU  IN FACTORY OXFORD WHITE AND DUAL LOCKS

OEM BED MAT

OEM CARPET MATS STILL IN DEALER'S BOX.

PIONEER AV Z2 30G COMPUTER NAVIGATION AND MUSIC LIBRARY SYSTEM - 7 INCH TOUCH SCREEN, VOICE COMMANDS, CD/DVD WITH LOCKOUT. This system is great, it has a points of interest which comes up camp grounds, motels, diesel, or whatever, by distance, then a phone number you only need to touch and its BLUETOOTH system calls handsfree. if you like what you hear, you just touch the screen and it adds a waypoint taking you there, then you may resume route. It has vocal turn by turn with picture of lanes etc, all in color and on a BIG screen.

It has BLUETOOTH handsfree talking/answering/dialing, Infrared radio/heat steering wheel controls.

TWIN ROSEN DVD players - headrest 7" screen DVDs with game control and head sets. They are set up to interact with all or any combination of the 3 screens. The Rosen can be separate DVD or slaved to either. YUP no kids fighting over movies and with headsets I did not have to listen to Mary Whats-her-name a billion times.

REAR CAMERA WITH NIGHT CAPABILITY WHEN PLACED INTO REVERSE.

ULTRA TYPE 014 POLISHED 17" WHEELS.

 

RECENTLY NEW, MICHELIN 265/70 R17 LTX AT2 TIRES "E" RATED QUIET AS A MOUSE BUT CAPABLE OF ANYTHING. A LITTLE WIDER PROFILE BUT THESE ARE REPLACEMENTS OF THE SAME TIRE I RAN OVER 80,000 ON.

NEW OEM WINDSHIELD WITH SUPERDUTY ETCHED IN TOP. I HAD A STONE SHIP SO REPLACED THE WHOLE THING. SO THERE SHOULD BE NO CHIPS OR DEFECTS IN THE WINDSHIELD.

HERE ARE SOME ADDITIONS TO THE LARIAT ( WHICH IS A LOADED TRUCK TO BEGIN WITH):

TOW COMMAND TRAILERING SYSTEM

FOLDING, HEATED, EXTENDABLE SIDE MIRRORS

POWER REAR WINDOW SLIDER

ADJUSTABLE GAS PEDAL

QUICK HEAT SYSTEM, ENGINE BLOCK HEATER (NEVER USED)

3.73 GEARING.

MOON ROOF

REAR PARKING ASSIST

60/40 SPLIT REAR SEAT WITH MANY CONFIGURATIONS - this will fold seat back down, or seat bottom up and then can fold out heavy duty metal floor rack - a combo of each side.

DUAL AUTO TEMP heat controls, tilt wheel, factory leather seating, folding and in/out adjustable heated mirrors, dual temp controls, 6 way dual power seats. Heated seats. Chrome step rails.

This truck has been babied and in may garage in Arizona until I moved to Michigan this year. It is garaged here too.

 

It has never been smoked in or in any kind of accident or used for commerical use. Only I and my wife have driven it.

I use Rotella synthetic oil. It has no dings or dents and only very very tiny stone chip in front and a couple in the tonneau lid where the bike rack broke. Its rear seat was always covered and the leather and carpet - the entire interior look brand new. I do have a GSD dog but where we traveled with her we had a custom seat cover we used.

When you do your research also consider this; when you calculate your ad ons, where will you get an non-commercial, babied Arizona truck with ALL the options, and more, not just a few?

I am sure I will be asked why I am selling? I moved to Michigan where my wife's and my family are. Voted most beautiful place nearby in US. Good for kids and since I moor my boat here all year, I don't have to pull it across the country. As a Rea Appraiser, I am driving a lot more than in the big city and no longer need such a big truck to tow my boat or drive across the country in the summer. But it is a great truck - best I have ever owned, without exception. Drive quieter than any other diesel I have riden in or driven - Please do the research or better yet test dive this or one like it.  Rides better than any of our GMC Denalis or our '02 Tahoe LT.

 

Its rear sensors and camera WITH the SHORT BED make it a snap to park - easiest to back in. One lady pulled up to me to tell me how impressed she was I stopped and slid it right in backwards seamless. Well, it was easier than parking my wife's Audi convertible. No skill sets needed here.

I noticed Carfax ESTIMATES three (3) owners. That is INCORRECT. IT HAS NEVER BEEN IN A TITLE OTHER THAN THE ORGINAL WHEN I PURCHASED IT. One continuous unbroken ownership. They are just wrong.

I WILL BE HEADING BACK TO ARIZONA IN A COUPLE WEEKS UNTIL SUMMER, PROBABLY DRIVING THE TRUCK.

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky

Fri, 24 Aug 2012

It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.

Ford investing $2.5 billion in two new plants in Mexico

Mon, Apr 20 2015

Automobile production keeps ramping up in Mexico. Last week alone, Toyota announced a new plant it's building south of the border, and news broke that Hyundai is looking into the same. Now Ford has announced a multi-billion-dollar initiative that will see it building two new facilities in Mexico, as well. Though neither will be a final assembly plant, both promise to break new ground for the automotive industry in Mexico – at least as far as Ford is concerned. The first is a new engine facility to be built at Ford's existing plant in Chihuahua. The fruit of a $1.1-billion investment will see the Blue Oval produce new gasoline engines for use in North America, South America and Asia-Pacific, creating 1,300 new jobs in the process. Ford will also be investing another $200 million to expand its inline-four and diesel engine production lines at the same plant. The move will create another 500 new jobs and make Ford's Chihuahua engine plant the largest in Mexico, according to the company's press release. Ford has also announced the building of its first transmission facility in Mexico, to be constructed within Getrag's plant in Irapuato in the state of Guanajuato. The $1.2-billion investment will create 2,000 new jobs and be charged with exporting two new automatic transmissions to markets around the world. The announcement comes on the 90th anniversary of Ford's presence in Mexico, dating back to 1925. Currently the company produces the Fiesta, Fusion and Lincoln MKZ in Mexico, as well as numerous Duratec and diesel engines.

The news comes as Ford celebrates its 90thyear in Mexico Further building its lineup of increasingly fuel-efficient engines and transmissions, Ford today announced a $2.5 billion investment in two new facilities building a new generation of engines and transmissions in the states of Chihuahua and Guanjuato, respectively.

Ford C-Max spied with fresh updates

Fri, 05 Sep 2014

The Ford C-Max hatchback looks to be getting a few cosmetic updates, as evidenced in this latest set of spy photos. Like the smaller Focus, which also received a nip/tuck for the 2015 model year, the C-Max appears to be getting a revised front fascia with slimmer headlamps and a more, shall we say, Aston Martin-like grille. Around back, there looks to be a new bumper with redesigned taillamps, as well.
In other markets, the C-Max people-mover is available with a range of powertrains, but here in the US, it exists either as a traditional gas-electric or plug-in hybrid. The C-Max's fuel economy has been a particular topic of interest lately, with its official fuel economy ratings having been lowered twice since the vehicle's launch. Sales initially suffered a bit following this fiasco, though numbers have since leveled out. It's unclear if Ford is working on any powertrain tweaks for the updated C-Max seen here, however.
Ford has likely spruced up the hatch's interior, as well, though we don't have photos of that at this time. Mum's the word on when we'll see the new C-Max, but our best guess is that it'll arrive sometime in the next year.
