THE TRUCK ----------THE MAN The Truck 2004 FORD F150 LARIAT Less than 38,000 miles The Man This truck belonged to my Uncle. His name was Clay. This truck was his pride and joy!! Clay was a Marine who served in Vietnam. He was a police officer in Ct. and a Sargent in Fl Clay had his first heart attack at age 39. He was as tough as nails. (maybe tougher) ! He purchased this truck not long after being diagnosed with lung cancer in 2003. The Doctors gave him 18 months. They did NOT know Clay ! The Truck Black on Black The original sticker shows all the details and is the last in the series of pictures that I've added. A complete service was done on this truck 9/06/2011 to the tune of $2098. 29. Tires have approximately 5,000 miles on them. This truck is in excellent condition. It was detailed and the oil changed last week. The Man He wanted to keep her impeccable. He kept every record of every maintenance that this truck has had. He even kept a small notebook over the visor and logged every mile he drove. Clay beat his lung cancer and dealt with continuing heart issues. A surgery here, an angioplasty there....he never complained. He became a computer geek and worked part time from home. He made friendships and touched the lives of so many people around the world. Clay developed a blood cancer in 2009. Cancer was NOT tougher than Clay. He battled back - He knew the routine. He continued to work part time and again he never complained. He knew when his heart needed work and each time he would drive himself to the hospital. He was TOUGH ! BUILT FORD TOUGH ! He had heart problems this past October and he got in the truck to get tot he hospital. He made it to the end of his driveway before he had to call for an ambulance. He passed October 28th, 2013. He was 65 And cancer never beat him ! He left his "baby".....this truck to his sister ( My Mom) Here are Mom's words Clay's baby.....
"The pride of my
brother's life was his 2004 Ford 150 Lariat Truck, black with black windows, and
the "bubba rumble" as I would call his mufflers, it was his baby. He kept a
log of every mile he drove and every service that was done. from the time he
bought it. Well my brother has been called home by Our
Lord and although he left me, his
sister the truck, it is with much sadness that I must sell this beautiful truck to a
person who loves the "bubba rumble" and who will sit high in the front
seat as Captain of his own ship and feel the magic from it;s beauty. If I
were a younger person, and Mr Arthritis and Mr Old age weren't present I
would drive this "baby" with pride,listening to his truck music which brings
back many memories, and when stopped at a stop sign next to another
truck, look over and whisper without words, "watch it" "I see your
envy, this is Clay's truck, his baby and then leave them in the dust"!!
Sometimes, a truck is just a truck. This one, well this one seems like more. It's important to my Mom that you know the history of this truck. She is 77 and it's too much truck for her. She wants the new owner to appreciate the truck. All the maintenance records will come with the truck. Please email me with any questions you may have. If you need additional pics, just let me know.

Consumer Reports says Toyota, Ford, Honda and Chevy are big winners in brand perception survey
Wed, 05 Feb 2014According to Consumer Reports, the automotive brands that stand out in the minds of car buyers are, in order: Toyota, Ford, Honda and Chevrolet. This news comes after the magazine polled its readers, asking them to take into account vehicle quality, safety, performance, value, fuel economy, design/style, and technology/innovation - which are the factors that car shoppers are most influenced by.
It's important to note that this award is only about perception. In other words, it's perceived quality, not actual quality. "Often, perception can be a trailing indicator, reflecting years of good or bad performance in a category, and it can also be influenced by headlines in the media," said Jeff Bartlett, Consumer Reports deputy automotive editor.
The brand that made the biggest jump in perception amongst Consumer Reports readers is Tesla, which posted an impressive 47-point gain to finish in fifth place. Subaru is also notable for finishing in the top 10, despite being one of the smaller manufacturers doing business in the US. Scroll down below for all the details from Consumer Reports, if you're so inclined.
Watch Ken Block's scary Rally America crash from inside the cockpit
Wed, 19 Feb 2014Ken Block became famous for his series of Gymkhana videos, but he's a real racer in his own right. Block has competed many rounds in the FIA World Rally Championship and also rallied in the 2013 Rally America series. He nearly won that latter title last year - if not for a massive crash in the final event of the season.
Block and his co-driver Alex Gelsomino went into the Lake Superior Performance Rally needing a win to take the championship. However, missing a clump of dirt on the side of the road and one little word in the pace notes was all it took to catapult Block's Fiesta off the road and into a tumbling accident. Block says his initial reaction was anger because the crash came out of nowhere.
For 2014, Block is joining the FIA World Rallycross Championship for at least three rounds. He'll drive a Ford Fiesta for the Hoonigan Racing Division at the Norwegian, French and Turkish events of the 12-round championship. Former Formula One World Champion Jacques Villeneuve will also compete in the series.
Next Shelby Mustang to wear GT350 nameplate
Fri, 21 Jun 2013Earlier this month, rumors started to swirl 'round the web about the next-generation Ford SVT Mustang - the halo version of the all-new 2015 'Stang seen testing in the gallery above. Originally, we heard that the Shelby GT500 moniker would be dumped in favor of "a name you're familiar with," which some sources guessed could mean a return of the Cobra nameplate.
That might not be correct. According to Road & Track, citing a report from Mustangs Daily, the new range-topping Mustang will bring back the Shelby GT350 name - currently used on an aftermarket version of Ford's Pony produced by Shelby American (take a look at our recent Quick Spin of that car). Expect the new GT350 to be quite a bit different than the current GT500 - it will be all motor, using a V8 that's derived from the naturally aspirated 5.0-liter Coyote engine (though it will no doubt have a higher displacement). The GT350 will be a lot more powerful than the next Mustang GT, which is expected to offer something like 450 horsepower, but won't be quite as absurd as the 662-horsepower GT500 we currently enjoy.
The Shelby GT350 will reportedly bow with the rest of the new Mustang range at the 2014 New York Auto Show, which coincides exactly with the original Mustang's debut at the New York World's Fair in 1964. If that seems far out, don't worry, we'll be seeing the rest of the 2015 Mustang range before then, but Road & Track reports that the 2014 Detroit Auto Show stage will be reserved for the reveal of the next Ford F-150 pickup.
