UP FOR SALE HERE IS A VERY BEAUTIFUL FULLY AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION 1989 FORD F-350 LARIAT XLT 4 WHEEL DRIVE 4 DOOR LONG BED PICKUP TRUCK. IT IS LIFTED AND HAS BRAND NEW 35" TIRES ON 16.5" RIMS, 12.5" WIDE. IT WAS PURCHASED FROM LEXUS OF TAMPA WHEN MY HUSBAND AND I FIRST MOVED TO ARIZONA LAST APRIL. WE STILL HAVE THE PAPERS THAT WE RECEIVED FROM THEM AT THE TIME, ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL CATALOG THAT THE FORMER OWNER STILL HAD, AS WELL AS 2 IGNITION KEYS. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE DEAL IS WITH ODOMETERS AND LIFTED TRUCKS, BUT WE BOUGHT THE TRUCK AT A LITTLE OVER 108,000 MILES LAST APRIL...AND IT IS IMPOSSIBLE THAT WE PUT 50,000 ON IT SINCE, AS WE STOPPED USING IT IN NOVEMBER WHEN WE GOT OUR EXCURSION, AND WE ARE BOTH RETIRED SO WE ONLY DROVE IT TO THE STORES. GRANTED, THEY ARE FAR AWAY FROM WHERE WE LIVE, BUT NOT 50,000 WORTH OF TRIPS. THIS WAS OUR FIRST LIFTED VEHICLE, SO WE DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT HOW THEY CAN AFFECT THE ODOMETER READING...ALSO THE SIZE OF THE TIRES IS HUGE. THE BRAKE LIGHT WENT ON RECENTLY, AND WE HAD SOMEONE LOOK AT IT AND IT NEEDS A NEW CALIPER ON THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE. WE HAVE THE PART, WHICH YOU CAN SEE ON THE FRONT SEAT INSIDE THE WHITE BOX, BUT WE LIVE IN SUCH A REMOTE PART OF THE DESERT, THAT IT IS NOT EASY TO FIND SOMEONE TO FIX IT THAT ISN'T 1 HOUR OR MORE AWAY. OUR USUAL MECHANIC IN ELFRIDA CLOSED. WE NEVER USE THE TRUCK AS WE BOUGHT A FORD EXCURSION TO USE AS A FAMILY VEHICLE AFTER WE HAD BEEN HERE A WHILE. THE RIDE WAS TOO ROUGH FOR MY 85 YEAR OLD MOTHER TO TAKE. WE ARE WAY OUT IN THE COUNTRY, WITH WASHBOARD ROADS, SO THE TRUCK IS VERY DUSTY, BUT THE BODY IS IN GREAT SHAPE. IT WAS IN NEAR MINT SHAPE WHEN WE GOT IT, BUT SOMEONE BACKED INTO THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR AT THE GAS STATION. MY HUSBAND PULLED MOST OF THAT DAMAGE OUT WITH A PLUNGER, BUT YOU CAN SEE A MINOR RIPPLE IN THAT DOOR IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY. THE REPAIR TO BRING THE DOOR TO BRAND NEW LOOKING WOULD COST $200, WE WERE TOLD. WE NEVER BOTHERED, BUT YOU MIGHT. THERE IS A SMALL CHIP IN THE PAINT AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTO, THAT IS IN THE LOWER PART OF THE DRIVER DOOR, AND A SMALL INDENTATION IN THE RUBBER MOLDING OF THAT SAME DOOR WHICH WE ONLY NOTICED AS WERE WERE TAKING THE PICTURES...IT IS NOT REALLY VISIBLE UNLESS YOU INSPECT CLOSELY. OUR GOAT LOVES TO GET UNDER THE TRUCK, AND HAD CHEWED THROUGH THE WIRES OF THE REAR ANY LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM. THIS IS AN EASY REPAIR TO DO, AND WE WOULD HAVE HAD IT DONE IF OUR REPAIR MAN WAS STILL THERE. MY HUSBAND WHO IS NOT A MECHANIC, SPLICED TOGETHER THE WIRES HIMSELF, BUT THE INDICATOR LIGHT IS STILL ON. WE WERE TOLD THAT IT COULD BE ENCLOSED IN PVC PIPE TO DISCOURAGE THE GOAT, BUT WE DECIDED TO SELL THE TRUCK BEFORE GOING THROUGH THE TROUBLE...AN WE DECIDED TO SELL IT AS IS. ACCORDING TO WHAT OUR MECHANIC HAD SAID BEFORE HE CLOSED, THERE REPAIRS ARE MINOR. UNFORTUNATELY, HE HAD A DEATH IN THE FAMILY AND CLOSED UP SHOP BEFORE WE WERE ABLE TO TAKE THE TRUCK TO HIM. IT IS A BEAUTIFUL AND SPACIOUS TRUCK INSIDE, WITH POWER WINDOWS AND DOOR LOCKS IN THE FRONT, AND ROLL DOWN WINDOWS IN THE BACK. THERE IS WOOD GRAIN (PLASTIC) TRIM ON THE DASH, AND THIS TRUCK WAS PROBABLY THE CAT'S MEOW IN ITS DAY. THE CARPET AND UPHOLSTERY ARE IN PERFECT SHAPE. BOTH FRONT AND BACK SEATS ARE COMFORTABLE, AND LIKE SOFAS. IT IS EXTREMELY POWERFUL AND RIDES THE WAY A TRUCK SHOULD. IT'S FAST, AND YOU CAN EASILY PASS EVERYTHING ON THE HIGHWAY. AS FAR AS MILEAGE, WE MADE IT TO MESA ON ONE OF THE 2 TANKS OF GAS. THE OIL AND FILTERS WERE CHANGED AT 153,000 MILES. MY HUSBAND LIKES IT BETTER THAN THE 2005 F-350 6.0 LITER DIESEL THAT HE USED TO DRIVE WHEN WE LIVED IN FLORIDA. IT'S ALMOST TOO BEAUTIFUL FOR A WORK TRUCK, IT GETS LOOKED AT FOR SURE, BUT IT WOULD BE A GREAT WORK TRUCK AS WELL AS A FAMILY VEHICLE. PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO CALL 520-371-8990 WITH YOUR QUESTIONS. MY HUSBAND OR I WOULD BE MORE THAN GLAD TO HELP YOU. THIS TRUCK COMES WITH A SUNBRELLA COVER.
