THE TRUCK ----------THE MAN The Truck 2004 FORD F150 LARIAT Less than 38,000 miles The Man This truck belonged to my Uncle. His name was Clay. This truck was his pride and joy!! Clay was a Marine who served in Vietnam. He was a police officer in Ct. and a Sargent in Fl Clay had his first heart attack at age 39. He was as tough as nails. (maybe tougher) ! He purchased this truck not long after being diagnosed with lung cancer in 2003. The Doctors gave him 18 months. They did NOT know Clay ! The Truck Black on Black The original sticker shows all the details and is the last in the series of pictures that I've added. A complete service was done on this truck 9/06/2011 to the tune of $2098. 29. Tires have approximately 5,000 miles on them. This truck is in excellent condition. It was detailed and the oil changed last week. The Man He wanted to keep her impeccable. He kept every record of every maintenance that this truck has had. He even kept a small notebook over the visor and logged every mile he drove. Clay beat his lung cancer and dealt with continuing heart issues. A surgery here, an angioplasty there....he never complained. He became a computer geek and worked part time from home. He made friendships and touched the lives of so many people around the world. Clay developed a blood cancer in 2009. Cancer was NOT tougher than Clay. He battled back - He knew the routine. He continued to work part time and again he never complained. He knew when his heart needed work and each time he would drive himself to the hospital. He was TOUGH ! BUILT FORD TOUGH ! He had heart problems this past October and he got in the truck to get tot he hospital. He made it to the end of his driveway before he had to call for an ambulance. He passed October 28th, 2013. He was 65 And cancer never beat him ! He left his "baby".....this truck to his sister ( My Mom) Here are Mom's words Clay's baby.....
"The pride of my
brother's life was his 2004 Ford 150 Lariat Truck, black with black windows, and
the "bubba rumble" as I would call his mufflers, it was his baby. He kept a
log of every mile he drove and every service that was done. from the time he
bought it. Well my brother has been called home by Our
Lord and although he left me, his
sister the truck, it is with much sadness that I must sell this beautiful truck to a
person who loves the "bubba rumble" and who will sit high in the front
seat as Captain of his own ship and feel the magic from it;s beauty. If I
were a younger person, and Mr Arthritis and Mr Old age weren't present I
would drive this "baby" with pride,listening to his truck music which brings
back many memories, and when stopped at a stop sign next to another
truck, look over and whisper without words, "watch it" "I see your
envy, this is Clay's truck, his baby and then leave them in the dust"!!
Sometimes, a truck is just a truck. This one, well this one seems like more. It's important to my Mom that you know the history of this truck. She is 77 and it's too much truck for her. She wants the new owner to appreciate the truck. All the maintenance records will come with the truck. Please email me with any questions you may have. If you need additional pics, just let me know.

70% of pickups could use aluminum by 2025
Wed, 11 Jun 2014In the next decade, the auto industry will see an explosion in its use of aluminum to cut weight and increase fuel economy, according to a study from market analysts Ducker Worldwide cited by The Detroit News. We are already seeing the lightweight metal show up extensively in luxury models from Europe, but with the impending launch of aluminum-intensive 2015 Ford F-150 (pictured above), North America is using it even more, as well. The report predicts 70 percent of US pickups to have aluminum bodies by 2025.
It won't just be pickups that see the benefit, though. The average amount of aluminum in US vehicles is forecasted by the study to grow from an average of 350 pounds in 2013 to about 550 pounds by 2025. The most common parts to use it will be hoods, doors and - to some extent - roofs, as well.
The massive increase in pickups' aluminum content hardly seems surprising. The F-150 is predicted to use so much that it might cause a short-term shortage, according to one earlier report. At the same time General Motors is heavily rumored to be negotiating with suppliers for the next generation Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. Ram is the last holdout of the Big Three, but the study predicts that not to last.
Mustang Cobra Jet prototype garners $200k for charity at Barrett-Jackson
Wed, 02 Oct 2013A few weeks ago we brought you news of a one-off Mustang Cobra Jet that Ford was donating to charity. The car was set to be auctioned off by Barrett-Jackson in Las Vegas to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. Now that auction has taken place, bringing in an impressive $200,000 for MS research.
That's a lot of zeros for a Mustang, much less one you can't even drive on the street. But the unique pony car, bearing serial number 2014 BJMS CJXX1, packs a 5.0-liter supercharged V8, competition gearbox, wheelie bar, roll cage... all you could want, in short, in a turn-key drag racer. And all that for a good cause.
Ford hiring 800 more salaried workers than originally expected
Wed, 24 Jul 2013Ford is on a roll this year, with excellent quarterly earnings and better-than-expected vehicle sales leading to 800 more job opportunities with the Blue Oval. In January, Ford announced that it wanted to hire 2,200 salaried employees, but, since then, that figure has been revised to 3,000, representing a 36-percent increase over original projections. About 1,500 of those jobs remain, 80 percent of which are technical professional positions.
"Engineers and technical professionals are in as much demand as our cars, trucks and SUVs," says Felicia Fields, Ford Group Vice President for Human Resources. Helping to spur this job growth are increasing market share on both the West and East Coast and robust demand for the Ford Escape and F-150.
To find job candidates, Ford is reaching out to them via Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, in addition to the company's corporate career site. The Blue Oval is also ramping up its presence on college campuses.
