1997 F-350 Ford 6x6 Green Flatbed on 2040-cars
Louisa, Kentucky, United States
for sale 1997 ford f350 6x6 the good ---the truck is very strong and tight, has bumper trailer hitch ball and inside bed hitch ball, has trailer brake and light control inside cab, has very good ( matching tires) all the way around, has 2 new interstate batteries, has pretty good interior but has some dash cracking over the glove box, good cloth seat, good floor, good trans and rear end has good exhaust system all the way from front to back. I like the truck, but I don't need another truck. with just a little work it would make someone a real nice truck. the bad----to begin with I am not a mechanic you might say I went to the old school. the brake pedal goes almost to the floor, and so does the emergency brake, therefore I think it needs rear brakes shoes, the engine wants to crank for a few seconds before it starts. that being said I think it may need fuel filters, I don't know. when it starts it runs perfect and has the old power/stroke diesel sound. the body does have a small rust spot on the passenger side on the bottom rear corner, there are also a few light scratches on the passenger door below the mirror. I have also lost the door lock key. also the speedometer does show 260,000 miles I don't know if that is right or not. I only drive the truck around on the farm. I bought the truck from my son

I am sorry for my forgetfulness. On Nov-17-13 at 14:05:54 PST, seller added the following information: I also forgot to mention the rear of the bed over the lights overtop of the license plate is some rust, but can be used as is. I will try to upload more pics. thanks |

How new car shortages may impact your buying experience
Wed, 04 Sep 2013If you want further proof that the auto industry is bouncing back, look no further than the empty lots and forecourts of your local dealership. According to a story by The Wall Street Journal, continued high demand for mainstream cars is overtaxing automakers' ability to produce enough models. Several dealers interviewed for the story are reporting two-week supplies as opposed to the typical two-month allocations.
With sales expected to hit 1.4 million units when August numbers arrive shortly and incentive spending down to its lowest amount since January, these limited supplies are pushing prices even higher. For example, according to the WSJ, the average price of a Ford Fusion is up past $26,000. Unfortunately, it's difficult for manufacturers to increase production quickly. If it invests in its facilities, as many manufacturers have done, it risks wasting cash if growth suddenly slows. At the same time, the momentum gained over the past several years could be short lived if vehicle supplies continue to dwindle. "Manufacturers are in a precarious situation," notes Karl Brauer, a senior director at Kelley Blue Book.
Low interest rates and a wealth of desirable features are also allowing customers to purchase more expensive vehicles while justifying their higher overall price tags, a situation that is compounding supply shortages. Even now, during the annual end-of-summer clearance season, deals on new vehicles are remarkably difficult to come by. According to the report, the Toyota Corolla is in a self-inflicted state of shortage, as Toyota clears out inventory in anticipation of the new 2014 generation arriving in dealers. Ford's supplies should rebound as Fusion production comes on line at its Flat Rock, Michigan factory. The Chevrolet Impala, Honda Odyssey, Civic, and Accord and Subaru Forester are also facing shortages.
Ford of Europe celebrates Mondeo's 20th anniversary
Wed, 25 Sep 2013Ford's European operations are celebrating a milestone of sorts as the Mondeo, the Blue Oval's bread-and-butter D-segment sedan in the old country, celebrates its 20th anniversary. The mid-sizer, which was sold in the US for a short time as the Contour, has been a far more popular vehicle in Europe - even receiving regular praise from one Jeremy Clarkson.
Narrated by Cockney actor Ray Winstone, the video goes through the Mondeo's years and how it's evolved from 1993 to the as-yet-unreleased fifth-generation model, which is essentially the same as the Ford Fusion that's sold in America. Take a look below for the full video from Ford of Europe.
Car companies used to cook up sales with recipe books
Fri, 08 Aug 2014The evolution of automotive marketing has undergone a number of strange phases. Few, though, match the strangeness of the 1930s to 1950s, when automotive marketers turned to cookbooks as a means of promoting their vehicles. Yes, cookbooks. We can't make this stuff up, folks.
This bizarre trend led to General Motors distributing cookbooks under the guise of its then-subsidiary Frigidaire. Ford, meanwhile, offered a compilation of recipes from Ford Credit Employees (shown above). The cookbook-craze wasn't limited to domestic manufacturers, though. As The Detroit News discovered, both Rolls-Royce and Volkswagen got in on the trend, although not until the 1970s.
The News has the full story on this strange bit of marketing. Head over and take a look.
