2005 Ford F-150 Crew Cab 4x4, 3:73 Lsd, Line-x. Tint, Flowmaster on 2040-cars
Carmi, Illinois, United States
I am the second owner of this truck and I am going on 5 years of
ownership of it. The truck has been great with no complaints, has
handled every type of weather, work, or family situation I have thrown
at it. But I have purchased a bigger trailer recently and I am needing
to buy a 1ton. So this half ton has to go.
2005 F-150 4x4 Super Crew Cab 4 door with 123,000 miles Private Party Blue Book value $13,100 Silver, 5.4L V8, Automatic Trans, 3.73 Limited Slip rear Differential, Power Windows, Power Locks, CD player, Gray Cloth Interior, Seats 6 with a flip up center console in front. 8 cup holders!, Full tow package with Coolers for just about everything, Line-X spray in bed liner, Flow master Dual Exhaust with turn downs (not to loud but you now can actually tell it has a V8), Tinted Windows (fronts were tinted to match the factory rears). If you are in the market for an F150 with a 5.4L you will know that there are only two dreaded issues with this engine design that will hurt your pocket book. One is when changing spark plugs, they tend to break off in this engine making a simple task extremely expensive, sometimes over $500 for the job. The other is the passenger side exhaust manifold tends to warp and crack, this job can cost over $1000 dollars depending on how many studs break off in the head. But you are in luck because I just performed both of these less than 1000 miles ago, so you don't have to worry about them for another 100,000 miles or so. I have a bachelors in Automotive Technology and love my vehicles. this one I have treated right since I have owned it (65,000 miles) and it has treated me and my family very well in return.Item is for sale locally and I can end the auction at anytime. If you have any questions Please call or text me at 6.1.8-3.8.4-7.6.8.0 Thanks |

White House clears way for NHTSA to mandate vehicle black boxes
Fri, 07 Dec 2012At present, over 90 percent of all new vehicles sold in the United States today are equipped with event data recorders, more commonly known as black boxes. If the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gets its way, that already high figure will swell to a full 100 percent in short order.
Such automotive black boxes have been in existence since the 1990s, and all current Ford, General Motors, Mazda and Toyota vehicles are so equipped. NHTSA has been attempting to make these data recorders mandatory for automakers, and according to The Detroit News, the White House Office of Management Budget has just finished reviewing the proposal, clearing the way. Now NHTSA is expected to draft new legislation to make the boxes a requirement.
One problem with current black boxes is that there's no set of standards for automakers to follow when creating what bits of data are recorded, and for how long or in what format it is stored. In other words, one automaker's box is probably not compatible with its competitors.
What an Atlas-based Ford F-150 might look like
Thu, 27 Jun 2013Just ahead of January's Detroit Auto Show, surprising rumors pegged Ford as revealing some sort of F-150 concept, perhaps as a hurried effort to deflate some of the buzz building around General Motors' new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra twins, which were also making their auto show debut. Those rumblings turned out to be true, as Ford rolled into the Motor City with its Atlas concept (inset, right), touting the truck's bold styling as a precursor to the next-generation F-Series.
The show truck featured all kinds of clever details, including active wheel shutters and a front air dam that raised and lowered to improve aerodynamics while preserving off-road ability. It also had a genuinely snarly face. And it's that pugnacious snout that may well be on its way to production. The good folks at TopSpeed have worked up the plausible-looking artist's rendering above by cross-referencing the Atlas concept with what little has been revealed from recent spy shots. The look is toned-down pretty dramatically from the concept truck, but its Atlas roots are clear, with a massive three-bar grille and bracket-shaped headlamps hiding a next-generation EcoBoost engine. In the rendering, the show truck's deeply contoured hood and roofline have been ditched and larger, more traditional side mirrors have been fitted - all likely concessions in the move to production sheetmetal.
While Ford has yet to officially announce when it will unveil the 2015 F-150, all signs point to next year's Detroit Auto Show - one year after the Atlas shrugged off GM's new pickups.
2014 Ford Fiesta 1.0L EcoBoost
Fri, 09 May 2014I'll be honest; when Ford first unveiled its 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, I was skeptical. Past attempts at building turbocharged American cars were almost universally awful, I reasoned, so why would Ford's latest effort be any different? This may seem foolish today, considering the success that the growing EcoBoost range has achieved - particularly the 2.0-liter and 1.6-liter mills. Yet I once again found myself questioning Ford.
It's the makeup of the 1.0-liter, turbocharged three-cylinder slotted into the compact engine bay of this Fiesta that has a way of breeding doubt. Three-cylinder engines remain an extreme rarity in the US. What's more, they earned a less-than-desirable reputation for applications in the 1980s and 1990s, and my trepidation about this latest three-pot as a result.
As I found out, though, history is a poor informant of modern technology. The thrust available in other cars with the EcoBoost badge on the back has not gone missing here; something the International Engine of the Year committee has lauded. That august body named the 1.0-liter Ecoboost the best engine of 2012 and 2013. After a week of driving, it didn't take long for my fear of threes to get turned into something like that line of thinking.
