Up for sale is my 2001 Ford F150 dedicated Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) pickup. Equipped with a reliable 5.4L Triton V8 engine and automatic transmission. This truck spent most of its life in a government fleet and has only 89,986 miles! Current CA registration is valid through April, 2015. High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) access stickers are included, but were never installed since there aren't HOV lanes in my area. Smog certification will be provided if required in your area. ConditionDrivetrainEngine runs strong with no lack of power. NO knocks, NO smoke, NO oil leaks. Underside of engine and transmission are bone dry. Transmission shifts into and through all gears smoothly as it should. Has proper acceleration and runs smoothly at highway speed. This was a fleet maintained vehicle with regular servicing, including oil changes at proper intervals. Exterior Paint has most of its factory shine as you can see. No major dents or rot on the body. There are minor dings, scrapes and scratches. If you look closely, you can still see evidence of the city decals that once resided on the driver and passenger doors. Overall, the body is very straight and paint is in good condition for its age.InteriorInterior is in good condition with average wear. As noted in the photos, there is a small tear in the driver side of the bench seat. Rubber floor is in good condition with no major wear. A/C blows ice cold and heat blows hot. LED odometer display is temperamental, but can be brought back to life by tapping on the clear cluster bezel. This is a common problem with these trucks that can be easily fixed by re-soldering a connection on the instrument panel circuit board. Do a quick Google search for more information on the repair if you’re interested. This causes no interference with the odometer accuracy as it continues to advance when the display is not functioning.Wheels and TiresTires have approx. 40% tread remaining. As documented in the photos, paint on the steel wheels is beginning to flake off in spots. Matching set of factory Ford hubcaps. Spare tire is missing.CNG SystemThis truck has three factory-installed tanks (one underneath and two in bed) with a CNG tank capacity (per owner’s manual) of 21.7 US Gasoline Gallon Equivalent (GGE) @ 3600 psi. Typically these trucks have an average range of approx. 275-325 miles, but I have noticed this truck gets around 200 miles per fill. Perhaps one of the solenoid tank valves is stuck in the closed position. This repair could be as simple as repairing a bad ground or as extensive as replacing a valve. The in-bed factory tank shroud was replaced with a more robust diamond plate aluminum cover.Payment DetailsA non-refundable deposit in the amount of $500.00 must be made via PayPal within 24 hrs of auction close.
