This is a 1992 Ford F350 with the 7.3L diesel engine with 4X4 and it's a crew cab. It took me a very long time to find a truck that had all these options prior to me buying it. When I found the truck it was located in southern TX, I flew down and drove it all the way home. Here in MI is is very hard to find a truck that isn't eaten away with rust and this one is in really great shape. I have driven it daily throughout the past 3 years and it has never left me stranded anywhere. We are moving and I can't get all my stuff to the other side of the country so this has to go, and I'm really bummed by having to sell it.

Here are the good points to the truck:

3/0 battery cables that were put in about a year ago
2 new batteries that were put in about 2 months ago
Electric fuel pump put in a mont ago (Dura Lift about $250 worth of new parts)
Transfer case rebuilt in February
New carrier bearing 2 months ago
Tires are in fair shape
Engine has run great
Glow plugs are in good shape
Installed manual glow plug button
Transmission works properly
Rear seat and cab is in really good shape
Proper coolant has been run in this truck (I use fleet guard)
Good block heater
Its been very reliable (I am a firefighter and use it to make runs from home)

Here are the bad points of the truck:

284+K miles, the truck still runs great though
Power steering hoses leak
Tranny coolant lines are leaking (not much but I would replace them the next time I flushed the coolant)
The headlights suck (replaced the originals with some cheap clear lens ones and they are not that good)
There is a tear in the drivers side seat
Glow plug relay (I'm guessing this is the issue) works when it wants
There are two clearance lights that the lens are broken on
The paint is horrible (the old paints just weren't formulated very well) You can see in the pictures that there isn't much clear coat
There is a dent in the hood from what appears that someone tried to shut the hood while the hinge was locked in the open position
The front bumper has a dent and is also rusted through on one corner
The interior light works sometimes when you open the door but not at other times
The door locks don't work for all doors
There appears to be some bondo in the drivers door
There is rust in the bottom corners of both fenders
The mirror switch for auto mirrors is not working (this just started in the past couple weeks)
Someone cut a hole in the bed for what I'm guessing was going to be a stack exhaust
The dash has many cracks
The vent slats are all non functional
The door panels all are in need of either being replaced or worked on
Drivers side seat belt doesn't fully retract
The rear gas tank I have never used because the previous owner told me that it didn't work, and I have never looked into it
Dents and scratches

I'm sure I have missed both some good points and some bad points so ask about anything that you might have questions about. If you're asking yourself why would you be interested in this truck, I will tell you why I bought it and why I hate seeing it go. I think this is one of the best F body trucks of all time. I needed an option to haul my wife and four kids in the winter and this truck could hold everyone and being 4X4 it could make it through the snow. The 7.3 naturally aspired is slow but it just keeps going. This truck has been rock solid for me, I don't know if anyone had done any work to the engine prior to me owning it but seems like it has many miles left in it. All the guys at the fire department love this truck and many of them want to buy it but they are firefighters and don't have any money. There is very little to be done to keep this truck functional. The body and interior could use some work but it hasn't bothered me. I feel safe in this truck.

Due to the age of the truck I can't promise you that it will run forever or offer any type of warranty. Because I am moving across the country the truck will need to be picked up no later than May 3rd unless we have worked out some type of arrangement prior to the end of the auction. The hitch isn't included in the auction but there is a diamond plate tool box that does go with the truck.

Ex-GM VP LaNeve takes over Lincoln ad agency

Wed, 10 Apr 2013

Those of you that caught yesterday's op-ed about Lincoln will have heard already, but Mark LaNeve has taken the helm at Team Detroit. Once the North American vice president of sales, service and marketing for General Motors, LaNeve will now head up the agency that handles all of Ford advertising. LaNeve will also run the account for Lincoln. While at GM from 2001 to 2009, the exec oversaw ad campaigns like Cadillac's Breakthrough and sales initiatives like "Employee Pricing for Everyone."
He left in 2009 to join Allstate as chief marketing officer, oversaw the creation of the Mayhem ad spots and was moved into the role of VP of agency operations overseeing Allstate's 10,000 agents. He resigned from the insurer in February 2012 for personal reasons and joined Team Detroit in August 2012 as chief operating officer, in charge of satellite offices in New York and internationally. He replaces ex-CEO Cameron McNaughton, and will continue to hold the title of COO.
Lincoln is trying to get its 2013 back to rights after putting big dollar commercials for the 2013 MKZ on television then having production glitches preventing cars from getting to dealerships. With rumors of a relaunch in the works, it's no surprise LaNeve has been given the reins - and from here it looks like the brand is desperate for the kind of magic he's proved he can marshal. Perhaps he can start by calling a mulligan on the renaming exercise that gave us the hoary "Lincoln Motor Company" and go back to oh, say, "Lincoln." Then he can ask the product folks to get to work on the MKC concept...

Ford Focus ST, Fiesta ST buyers to get free Octane Academy driving school

Thu, 01 Aug 2013

The Ford Focus ST and Fiesta ST have created plenty of excitement in the sport compact segment, and Ford is looking to make sure that owners are driving and enjoying their cars to the best of their abilities. As an added bonus for buying one of these sporty hatchbacks, Ford will provide a complimentary ST Octane Academy session to be held at the Miller Motorsports Park in Utah.
Attendees will be responsible for travel and lodging, but Ford will provide the driving school free of charge. Included in this two-day trip, ST owners will get class instruction and driving instruction in prepped Focus ST and Fiesta ST models on the track and autocross course. Some karting action will also be involved as will a tour of Ken Block's Hoonigan Racing headquarters located nearby. If this doesn't sound like enough fun, there is also an optional day of activities that includes some more track time in a Mustang GT and off-road instruction in an F-150 SVT Raptor.
Ford told us that those who have already purchased a Focus ST or Fiesta ST will still be able to attend the performance driving school, but the press release, which is posted below, makes it sound like it applies to original owners only. Ford has yet to announce its schedule for the ST Octane Academy or prices for additional activities or guests.

Ford Shelby GT350 Mustang is a track-day weapon with 500 hp

Mon, 17 Nov 2014

Ford promises more than 500 horsepower and a torque peak above 400 lb-ft.
The wait is finally over. After months of spy shots, rumor and innuendo, Ford has officially pulled the wraps off its new Shelby GT350. Judging by the spec sheet and the promises being made - especially that the Shelby GT350 will be "an all-day track car that's also street legal" - the wait appears to have been worth it.
