Cummins Powered F-450 Dually Pickup, Crew Cab, 2wd (heavier Than F-350) on 2040-cars
Holly, Michigan, United States
2000 Ford F450 Cab and Chassis, converted to pickup truck (very rare bed)
Truck is 2wd with Indestructible kingpin style front end. Early Cummins 12v Engine, low miles, well maintained, and just resealed Brand new Super B upgraded turbo Ford Superduty Intercooler Custom cold air inlet Custom modified complete exhaust system with tailpipe Low mileage ZF-6 manual 6-speed transmission South Bend clutch, good to 450hp Freshly serviced rear end with 3.54 gears All new brakes and e-brake New batteries New brake controller 2007 complete front end 2010 tow mirrors 2010 tailgate and rear bumper F450/550 specific bed (looks like standard F-350 dually bed, but is set up for 160" CA) Bed mounted fuel tank Super heavy duty Class 5 hitch Fresh professional paint (Factory white) Selling this bad ass F450 that we're just now finishing. I didn't build this truck to sell, I built it to be the ultimate tow rig for my race trailer, and I didn't skimp on anything. Only selling it because I'm getting a brand new dually through work. Truck was completely professionally built and I have all the receipts. Engine and trans was installed by Central Truck and Trailer using Ford/Cummins swap parts. All fab work is very nicely done by Diamond Fabrication. Paint was done by Robert K. Wiring was done by Downriver Motorsports Wiring. DNR Customs did minor pump mods, a 3200RPM spring, and fixed the potential KDP issue. Tons of new parts. Runs, drives, and works great, just needs very minor finishing touches. I am going to work on it until it is 100% complete, but the price may go up. The object of the build was to end up with a truck to tow my 15k pound race trailer that was very dependable and would run for a long, long time. Would be a super dependable hot-shot rig, and will get over 20mpg unloaded. Will let it go for $15,500 the way it sits. Losing a *lot* of money at this price. May take trades or partial trades. I dig cars....either fast, old, or both, so partial trades for cars, engines, etc may be considered. Already have too many trucks. I will consider all reasonable offers.

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
Ford F-450 claims best-in-class towing, company abandons practice of removing items to boost payload number
Tue, 02 Sep 2014The ongoing heavy-duty truck battle between Ford and Ram is showing no signs of slowing down. The Blue Oval is trying to remove at least one point of contention between the two brands by testing its 2015 F-450 Super Duty using the Society of Automotive Engineers J2807 towing standard, which Ram also uses. In the new evaluation, the F-450 is rated at a max towing capacity of 31,200 pounds. That's an identical amount as under Ford's own, previous test.
"We leave no doubt with customers that the F-450 pickup truck has best-in-class towing of 31,200 pounds - whether tested using our own internal towing standards or SAE J2807," said Raj Nair, Ford group vice president for Global Product Development, in the company's release.
At the same time, Ford is also changing how it calculates the F-450's payload. Instead of using its minimum curb weight as before, the brand is now using the truck's base curb weight. The revision lowers the pickup's rating to 5,300 pounds, compared to 5,450 pounds previously. The company said in its announcement that the reason for this is "aligning its payload rating practices with other manufacturers to make it easier for customers to compare vehicles." General Motors made a similar switch for its pickups in August.
How the Ford F-150 SVT Raptor became a reality
Wed, 01 May 2013The camouflaged Ford F-150 SVT Raptor prototype captured above blazing its way across the desert during a test run left company engineers giggling in amazement, reveals Jamal Hameedi in a new Autoweek video. Ford's global performance vehicle chief engineer, accompanied by senior exterior designer Bruce Williams, sat down with the publication to discuss the concept and development of the automaker's super off-road F-150.
Designing a high-performance pickup in 2008, right when the cost of gasoline was going through the roof, seemed insane at the time, but the team pushed forward with the innovative vehicle regardless. The interview includes plenty of Ford B-roll footage as visual candy, and the conversations include discussions about exterior design, ride comfort, anti-lock brake tuning, suspension engineering, weight reduction and why it was necessary to make the Raptor visually different than Ford's standard F-150. The model's origin story is very interesting, and you can learn more about it by watching the video below.
