This truck is in great working condition. I have always fixed everything that came up, with the exception of the air conditioning, which I bypassed the compressor when it went with a shorter belt to get better gas mileage. I am the second owner. I bought the truck from the original owner in Feb., 2008. It had 79,000 miles on it. It now has 88,217 miles, so I put 9,000 miles on it in 6 years. 5,000 of those miles was in 2008 when I took it to Idaho (from Pennsylvania) for an elk hunting trip. I put the tires on it new for that trip, so they have 9,000 miles on them. I always had the oil changed every year at inspection time, even though the truck was generally run about 600 miles a year. It has always been kept in a garage since I have had it.
I recently had all the body work done where rust was coming through. Also new strong arms on the lift hatch on the Reading body. The Reading body is awesome. I used it to store my tools for handyman work. The lumber rack is really sturdy. I also have slept in the cap on overnight trips very comfortably. It is a full 8 foot size bed and a 4x8 sheet of drywall or plywood fits in it easily. It has a tow package on it, including a brake lever inside. There is also a receiver on the front of the truck for a winch or for parking implements or trailers more easily than backing them in. Also included are a pair of Michelin LTX A/S LT 225/75 R16 mounted on wheels, another pair of steel wheels, and the original spare tire mounted on yet another wheel. Here is a list of the work I have done on it since I have had it: installed new parts -belts -air filter -water pump -alternator -timimg cover -thermastat -front crank seal -distributer -distributer cap -plugs, wires. -valve cover gaskets -oil pan gasket -rear main seal - engine mounts -transmission front pump seal - muffler -tailpipe -fuel filter -fuel pump -fuel tank -fuel tank sending unit & pump -brake lines & brakes |

2015 Ford Mustang GT Line-Lock Burnout
Mon, 03 Nov 2014In this brief Short Cut, Autoblog's Steven Ewing demonstrates Line-Lock on the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. Accessed through an on-screen performance menu, the feature temporarily locks the front brakes to help you heat up the rear tires for better traction, as you would for drag racing. The result? A 15-second smokescreen.
NHTSA probing 2000-2003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable models over throttle issue
Mon, 29 Oct 2012A potential issue with the speed control cable collar has got the 2003-20003 Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable under the spotlight of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. If the collar breaks it can cause the throttle to be stuck open.
The issue is limited to vehicles with the 3.0-liter V6 Duratec. There are just 50 complaints so far out of 310,000 cars, but the NHTSA has begun an investigation into whether a recall should be issued.
Ford issues six recalls covering 101,000 vehicles for multiple issues
Tue, 08 Jul 2014Ford is announcing six separate recalls for a variety of issues affecting a dozen models and a total of 100,610 vehicles in North America. However, according to Ford spokesperson Kelli Felker, "None of them have caused accidents or injuries." Half of them cover fewer than 1,000 cars.
The largest recall covers 92,022 North American examples (about 83,250 in the US) of some models of the Ford Taurus, Lincoln MKS, Ford Interceptor, Flex and Lincoln MKT from the 2013 and 2014 model years; the 2012-2014 Edge and the 2014 Lincoln MKX. All of them have a potential issue with the halfshaft on the right side that might not be fully seated and could move outward over time. If it shifts too far, the models may no longer be able to drive, and the condition could also allow the vehicles to roll away, even when in Park. Dealers will inspect the shaft to make sure it's seated and will replace the part if necessary.
The next-largest recall covers 5,264 North American examples (4,867 in the US) of the Ford F59 Commercial Stripped Chassis from the 2011-2014 model years. It's possible that an electrical junction box can corrode in areas with salty roads and short circuit. The problem could potentially cause a fire. Dealers will replace the box with an improved design.
