2008 Ford F450 Super Duty 6.4 Liter Flatbed on 2040-cars

US $17,650.00
Year:2008 Mileage:143777
Location:

Issaquah, Washington, United States

Issaquah, Washington, United States

Vehicle is sold "As-Is-Where-Is"   However I am open to negotiation about delivery to locations on the US west coast.  Vehicle is located in zip code area 98027 near Seattle, WA.

According to specs supplied by Ford:  This truck is a bull with 6.4 liter 32 valve diesel engine with 650 ft lbs of torque and 300HP. It's a 4X2 with an automatic 5 speed + overdrive transmission with only +143,000 well serviced miles. 

The truck is a pleasure to drive has plenty of power and quite tight turning radius less than 30 feet to hang a U-eee. Air con works great as does cruise control. Pretty good sounding stereo though it's a stock unit I would have replaced. 
It's equipped with powerful ABS air disc brakes front and rear and the engine has been checked by a professional diesel engine mechanic and cleared as tight and sound. 

Has 2 hook ups for high and low trailer hitches and Pollak? 7 pin round socket for trailer lights (and I have the matching plug which is hard to find). Also, I believe it has a socket for air brake connection to trailers (NO PROMISE HERE - and if I am NOT correct, I won't be beat up about this point please...)

Tires are Goodyear 225/70R 19.5" retreads with less than 60% life.

The flatbed is 77" wide and needs "wings" of about 9" on either side (which in my vision would be the hinged and opening tops of tool boxes and equipment storage (flush with the existing bed). The bed wood is sturdy, but I needs replacing.  Space immediately behind the cab is for air compressor, generator and/or welding equipment. Tool box behind this empty space.  All this can be removed and a new bed easily installed to purpose the vehicle to meet your needs. 

The glass is good all around and the body has a few nicks and scratches -- but no major damage, just normal wear and tear. There is an 2" -- 3" indentation in the front bumper on the driver's side (which you can see in the first picture.

Note that the hoist, though temporarily mounted in its odd position is not for sale and it's been placed there in order to rebuild it.

Ford C-Max, Fusion hybrids subject of MPG lawsuit in California

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

A California lawsuit over the fuel economy claims for the 2013 Ford C-Max was first reported back in December. Based on the numerous reports we've heard of disgruntled owners failing to get their car's EPA fuel economy ratings on the C-Max and 2013 Fusion Hybrid, we suspected there would be more to this story. The Detroit News is reporting that two California law firms are combining their lawsuits against Ford on this matter for "false and misleading" claims.
The article states that there are hundreds of C-Max and Fusion Hybrid owners who have joined the lawsuit, but the issue isn't limited to customers. In December, Consumer Reports extensively tested both the Fusion Hybrid and C-Max and found that both hybrids performed significantly worse than their EPA claims. This all comes just a few months after Hyundai and Kia took the unprecedented step of lowering the fuel economy ratings for all of their 2012 and 2013 model-year vehicles.

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax

Thu, 24 Jul 2014



The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.

2013 North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year finalists announced [w/poll]

Wed, 12 Dec 2012

2012 is almost in the books and automakers are spending December gearing up for the 2013 auto show season, which tips off next month at the Detroit Auto Show. Traditionally, the latter opens up with the announcement of the North American Car and Truck/Utility of the Year awards, and this year figures to be no different.
But up until this moment, we didn't know which six vehicles would be parked ahead of the stage as finalists, with executives and engineers waiting for the winners to be disclosed. Whittled down from October's "short list" of nominees (11 cars and 10 truck/utility vehicles), the finalists are as follows:
