I will start by saying if it weren't for this axle issue I would still be driving this truck, rusty but trusty.  The body is pretty ragged out.  I take it every fall to have the frontend gone over and this year my mechanic said after changing the axle seal they could not get the axle back in and it could be up to 2k to fix the problem was unclear to me, I've put so much money into this truck over the years I decided to give up on it.  The engine was replaced with a new jasper at 204566k miles along with the clutch and slave cylinder and whatever else should have been done motor mounts.. manifolds(which now leak) I had just had an exhaust put on it.  It has a lot of recent parts..starter..alternator..battery stuff like that.  Along with the good there is a long list of small problems.  None being electrical which is what I wish I could say about the truck I replaced it with.

The plow looks rough but it works great I have kept it maintained.  The mount was $670 alone, wiring $240, controller $150, I'm sure you could easily sell the plow assembly and that's what I will do if no one is interested I just think this would be a good find for someone rebuilding a truck like this.

The front wheel is leaned over I drove it home from the garage about 15 miles and it was fine but when I went to take it to have the plow mount removed last week I could not steer the truck so I've decided to list it as it is with everything.  I will leave the plow off until the time of the sale to determine how it is taken, with a flatbed it could be on, with a tow truck or trailer it will need put in the bed of the truck.  I can help load it in the bed by hand but we need two good backs to do it, or I might be able to do it before hand if you don't want to see it working but I can promise you it works just fine.  Please ask me anything and you are welcome to come look at the truck which is probably the best idea.  Thanks

Mulally wanted to kill Lincoln as late as last year, Fields vows to turn it around

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

Lincoln fans might want to give incoming Ford CEO Mark Fields a pat on the back for having a hand in saving the brand from the chopping block last year. He's among the people spearheading the rejuvenation of the division away from its stodgy image to appeal to younger customers.
According to two unnamed sources speaking to Bloomberg, CEO Alan Mulally was ready to kill Lincoln last year. Following the slow production ramp-up of the MKZ combined a with a costly ad campaign, Mulally was frustrated and openly suggested dropping the brand. However, Fields and Jim Farley, Ford's marketing boss, convinced the CEO that the brand was worth saving. They also created a plan to prevent similar problems for new models in the future.
It seems that one part of the strategy may involve waiting until new models are at dealers before starting a big ad campaign for them. Lincoln global director, Matt VanDyke, recently told Autoblog that the division is holding off on a full marketing push behind the new MKC crossover to prevent the supply problems that plagued the MKZ last year. Its big offensive begins in the fall when the CUVs are at all of the dealers and consumers are at home watching more TV. VanDyke also told Bloomberg that Fields, Farley and Joe Hinrichs, Ford president of the Americas, have more direct oversight over new product launches now.

Watch this Ford F-150 SVT Raptor fly like an eagle [UPDATE]

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

The Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is a very capable truck right out of the box, but "capable" has never translated into "invincible." Just ask the owner of the machine in this video. In it, the driver gets frisky with an aggressive jump with plenty of speed on his hands. The result is enough air to make Vaughn Gittin Jr. blush. As always, it's not the launch that's painful, but the re-entry. Gravity eventually asserts its dominance over the $43,630 pickup in a big way, and when it comes crashing down, it does so with a vengeance.
The impact was hard enough to set off both the alarm and multiple airbags inside the cabin. It's unclear if anyone was injured in the stunt, but we certainly wouldn't be surprised to hear that was the case. You can check out the stunt in the video below, and remember, when in doubt, back out of the throttle. Be warned, there may be some explicit/NSFW language in the clip.
UPDATE: Second video added with an even better look at the jump added below.

Ford profiles surprisingly affluent Focus ST buyers

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

It comes as no surprise when Ford says that 32-percent of Focus ST buyers are under 35, but we weren't expecting this: the average annual salary of Focus ST buyers is $127,000. Twenty-two percent of non-ST Focus buyers are under 35, while their average annual salary is $67,000.
We like the Focus ST because it has 252 horsepower, is genuinely fun to drive and offers great value for performance-minded car enthusiasts; facts that are not lost on customers, it seems. Ford says that the Focus ST has the highest percentage of conquest sales for a non-hybrid model it sells, and that the top-four trade-ins are from Honda, Chevrolet, Mazda and Toyota. Demand for the hot Focus is strongest in Los Angeles, Detroit, Houston and Orlando.
"[The Focus ST is] having this kind of halo effect for other vehicles we'd hoped for when we invested in the ST brand," says John Felice, vice president of US marketing, sales and service, because it's helping to boost sales of other Ford vehicles.
