This 95 F-150 is a Mark III conversion, Flareside extended cab.  The truck has been in the family for 11 years and has been my shop truck for many years.  There have been no accidents and no major repairs since we bought the truck with 40k miles on it.  This truck is very reliable, has ice cold A/C, leather interior (with wear and some tearing as you see in pictures), tow package, power rear sliding window, cruise control (works), automatic with overdrive, powdercoated 40 Ford style steel wheels (Wheel Vintiques), 34 Ford V-8 centers, stainless trim rings, BF Goodrich Radial T/A's (285/70/15 rears on 10's; 225/60/15 fronts on 8's) with 3k miles on them, all new brakes front to rear (rotors, pads, drums, shoes, hardware), new front wheel bearings, new starter last year, trans serviced at 150k miles (flush/filter/fill), and tune up at 150k (cap/rotor/plugs/wires/throttle body replaced/egr valve replaced/fuel pressure regulator replaced/new fuel filter).  The truck is lowered 2" in the rear and 1 1/2" in the front (lowered coil springs).  Has an incredible rake.

I have used Mobil-1 10w-30 synthetic since 75k miles, changed every 5k miles.  Differential oil was changed to synthetic (Valvoline) at 150k miles.  Rear showed no visible wear or alignment issues, rear bearings are excellent, diff does not leak.

The pinstriping is done by hand and was done by the late Gary Wills, "The Pioneer", and has been on the truck for many years.  I will not be removing the pintstriping as part of this sale.  Getting such a good truck, this cheap, if you don't like it...your elbow grease is free and have at it.  The lettering is for my shop, so this is a REAL "shop truck", used daily to advertise my shop, pick up parts, tow the show trailer (1700 lbs), tow and haul finished and project bikes...you name it, it did it and it never complained.

The truck does have scratches and obvious signs of use...no, wait, "This truck has great patina!"  No rust issues, solid frame, and excellent drivetrain.  Don't let the miles fool you.  This truck has been well taken care of...and driven only around 10k miles per year its entire life (think about that...my 08 Mazda has 120k on it already!).  This truck has a lot of life left and makes a cool statement every mile.

There are issues, however.  The leather seats show wear and there are several tears and pulls (rear seat is perfect).  The driveline has a mild vibration that appears around 25mph and disappears around 55mph.  I have had the tires re-balanced twice, but the issue has not corrected.  The driveshaft does not show to have lost any balance weights...so, the next step is to check the ball joints, which I have not done.  The vibration does not affect performance and is mild...but it is noticeable.  The front end is correctly aligned and that is not the issue.The driver side power window "up" limiter is gone.  So, you have to "stop" the window by letting off the switch when it gets to the top.  The gear drive for "close" on the power rear window is stripped.  You can open via the switch, then push closed.  The heater is weak, but the A/C is ice cold (the "trap door" does not always move to the heat side/standard problem in Fords).

I have a clear Tennessee title in my name.  I accept PayPal, cash, and credit cards (in any case, the truck will not be release until ALL funds are clear and in my hands).  If you ahve any questions, please use eBay's message function.  I will respond.

Of course, I make no guarantees or warranties of any kind.  This truck has been nice to me for many years.  It may not like you.  It may break down...or, it may run for longer than you need it.  In any event, once you buy it, it is yours...no whining, no takie-backsies.

Ford using robot drivers to test durability [w/video]

Sun, 16 Jun 2013

In testing the durability of its upcoming fullsize Transit vans, Ford has begun using autonomous robotic technology to pilot vehicles through the punishing courses of its Michigan Proving Grounds test facility. The autonomous tech allows Ford to run more durability tests in a single day than it could with human drivers, as well as create even more challenging tests that wouldn't be safe to run with a human behind the wheel.
The technology being used was developed by Utah-based Autonomous Solutions, and isn't quite like the totally autonomous vehicles being developed by companies like Google and Audi for use out in the real world. Rather, Ford's autonomous test vehicles follow a pre-programmed course and their position is tracked via GPS and cameras that are being monitored from a central control room. Though the route is predetermined, the robotic control module operates the steering, acceleration and braking to keep the vehicle on course as it drives over broken concrete, cobblestones, metal grates, rough gravel, mud pits and oversize speed bumps.
Scroll down to watch the robotic drivers in action, though be warned that you're headed for disappointment if you expect to see a Centurion behind the wheel (nerd alert!). The setup looks more like a Mythbusters experiment than a scene from Battlestar Galactica.

Ford recalls 83k Taurus and crossover models for halfshaft issue

Fri, 15 Aug 2014

Ford and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have issued a recall for some 83,250 vehicles in the US, for an issue with halfshafts. More specifically a "halfshaft retention circlip" might not have been properly installed on affected vehicles, with the result being halfshafts that may move improperly or disengage completely from the linkshaft while driving. The NHTSA release also notes that the issue may occur "without prior warning" which obviously factors in to the timeliness of getting this checked.
Should the halfshaft disengage, a few troubling things could happen. If it occurs while driving, power from the engine will no longer be transmitted to the wheels. And, if the vehicle is parked without the parking brake applied after disengagement of the circlip, vehicles may roll away even if they're transmissions have been placed in "Park."
Affected vehicles are as follows: Ford Edge and Lincoln MKX crossovers from model years 2012 to 2014; Ford Taurus and Lincoln MKS sedans from model years 2013 to 2014; Ford Flex and Lincoln MKT vehicles from model years 2013 to 2014.

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.
