Vehicle Detail
This has been a great vehicle! It always starts despite how cold it is. It's a snow monster, I've never gotten stuck! However it's getting quirky there are some issues that I can't fix, probably easy fixes but I lack the knowledge to deal with them. The biggest is the noise in the front end my husband believes it's an actuator that's sticking. I continue to drive it despite the noise and it's fine. It needs a new catalytic convertor, it's loud but not illegally loud. The radio stopped working, it's stuck on a headphone mode? I bumped into a fence a few years ago and caused the cosmetic damage to the front (I took pictures of the damage.) Oh and the most annoying quirk is the door ajar light stays on, I guess this is a typical ford problem solved by WD40 but again I don't really know. The interior is good, no rips in the leather, but the carpets are not pristine. This was my farm truck so it was driven with dirty boots and the kids crumbled food in the back seat. I will clean it for you but do not expect perfection. Best part I'm starting the auction at scrap price and It's a real auction No Reserve.
