Wow ! Rare find - Extra nice ! Original paint !! Survivor 1979 F100 truck !
Low original miles of 81k. Try to find another like this. This truck has been in the same family since new, and always well cared for. The truck was sold new about 20 miles from here and has been here its whole life.
The pictures show how nice this truck really is. These were just taken.
It runs good, and gets compliments all the time. The only things to mention are: windshield has a crack down low, temperature gauge doesn't work (truck does not run hot), there is a small crease on the left quarter where the bumper edge got it, and a couple minor cracks in original seat cover. That is it. No cracks in dash. Door panels are excellent, side and rear glass is nice, gauges are clear and very nice as are all the original controls.
The original spare is still under neath this truck. Tires are new, the truck drives great. It runs straight down the road and shifts out well. The 302 V8 fires up easily, and has plenty of power. The truck brakes straight and true. This truck is a pleasure to drive. I could go on and on about this truck but you get the picture. Trucks like this rarely if ever come around. This truck is currently registered on a bill of sale, and will be sold on a bill of sale as Georgia does not require titles for vehicles older than 1985. (Title is included, but it is not current). Questions ? - call 706-847-1630.

Are you the next Ford Edge? [UPDATE]
Wed, 13 Feb 2013What looks to be the next Ford Edge has been leaked in an apparent corporate Powerpoint presentation deck. Despite the thumbnail image's blurry and pixelated quality, it appears as if the next generation crossover will be staying close to its current aesthetic despite an all-new front clip with redesigned grille, headlamps, and lower fascia with integrated fog lights.
The upscale-minded Blue Oval CUV is due for a redesign in 2015, having just received a mid-cycle refresh for 2011. It isn't clear what changes lie beneath the new skin, either in terms of mechanicals or interior refinement, but we suspect Ford will be looking to put some distance between the next generation model and the new Escape, which is suddenly much more car-like and not that far off the more expensive Edge in terms of overall size, power or refinement.
UPDATE: Substituted clearer image - thanks, Sean!
Chevy Silverado frame twist test a marketing victory versus Ford
Thu, 16 Oct 2014The pickup market is so competitive that all three major American makers are constantly trying to find a way to prove their product is the best. The new 2015 Ford F-150 is grabbing headlines at the moment by winning awards and posting segment best numbers. But in a new video, Chevrolet is taking aim squarely at the 2015 F-250 Super Duty in a battle of heavy-duty truck supremacy against the 2015 Chevy Silverado 2500HD... well, in a single metric anyway.
The big numbers from pickups often come down to payload, towing rating and fuel economy, but for this test, Chevy and Howie Long are challenging the torsional rigidity of the trucks' frames, specifically which one flexes less. Long plays the everyman here having the Chevy engineer explain what's going on in the tests. Unsurprisingly for a video on Chevy's official YouTube page, the 2500HD wins out by a good margin. The company also reports that similar results as shown here have been certified in third-party testing.
Check out the video to see the full test. While this might seem like a marketing win for Chevy, Ford isn't immune to it, either. In 2009, the Blue Oval uploaded a similar video comparing the flex under 225 pounds of weight from the bare frames of the F-150, Chevy Silverado, Dodge Ram (as it was still called at the time) and the Toyota Tundra. The results fell in the Blue Oval's favor, as you can see here.
