Listed for sale here is my 4x4 Pickup. The truck is a 1999 Ford F-150 Extended Cab. The truck has 4 wheel drive and has the Lariat trim (which was the highest package you could get in 1999). I have owned this truck since I was 16 years old. It is was my very first truck I ever had that my parents bought for me. The truck has around 211,000 miles on it but still drives great. My dad bought it for me in 2001 with 39,000 miles on it and it does have a rebuilt title. The truck has seen all highway miles and the four wheel drive has been used at least once every winter (no off roading, though we have used it a few times to get to a cemetery or two back home that was on a hill). The truck has a brand new rebuilt crate engine installed from Ford. This engine was installed March 2011 at Brown's Ford in West Liberty, Ky and has nearly a year of warranty left. Since the install I have put a little over 10,000 miles on the engine. The reason for the install was that the old engine went down because of a spark plug ejection. These 5.4L engines from 97-03 were notorious for blowing out spark plugs and the first time this happened to me was in 2005. Had it fixed but this began to happen again in late 2010. I had this happen to the same one three times and the third time something definitely went wrong and to make a long story short there was internal engine damage. Ended up just buying a factory engine from Ford and having it installed. Ford guaranteed the engine for 3 years (and unlimited mileage). The warranty is up on 03/17/2014. In late 2010 I also had a new fuel pump installed. Last year I also had a Ford Motor-craft battery installed from Ford and it came with a five year warranty. Other additions that I have made to the truck are:Viper Model 5701V 2-Way Remote Start, Alarm System, & Keyless Entry (with both remotes).Brand New Ford Factory Steering WheelLund Easy on & Easy off Bed Tarp2000 Model Ford Factory Overhead Console w/compass and temperature sensorElectronic Dimming Mirror4" Exhaust System (Installed last year).Aftermarket Instruments (Transmission Temperature & Exhaust Temperature gauges, they look pretty cool).iPhone-iPod factory radio connection (I took out the 6-disc cd exchanger and replaced with this and it works great).Trailer Towing Package with trailer towing brake controllerBrand new Windshield installed last year (high quality glass).All new tie rods and balljoints installed last year.New Michelin tires installed a little over two years ago, probably 60 to 70 percent tread remaining. These tires ride great!!!Husky Front Floor Liners (Great for capturing dirt better than any floor mats. Back seat are husky regular floor mats).New Motorcraft Alternator Installed in August 2012 w/ warranty.I also have a 1999 model Ford Expedition middle console that I can include. I had the intention of installing this but never got around to doing so. The most work this truck has seen as far as pulling a trailer was pulling my tractor between my farm and my grandpa's farm for a total of about 12 trips (20 miles each). I thought it would be cool to have the added instruments and they look almost like factory installed. This truck has really not seen any action as far the pulling goes but if your interested in doing a lot of pulling then then the transmission temperature gauge is a great addition. There is nothing wrong with this truck aside from the fact it is high mileage and therefore has the normal scratches. The exhaust is a little louder since I replaced the old one with the 4" so some of you looking for a more factory sound may not like it. It is definitely not loud, I used to have dual exhausts and it was much louder. Nevertheless it is louder than factory. There are a few rust spots on the truck and as always for the mileage there are some scratches and dings (there are a few on the tailgate). This was my very first truck and I do hate to part with it but as a matter of economics I just do not need it anymore. I got married last year and my wife and I moved to Louisville so I could attend law school. I already had two vehicles so I needed to decide which one to part with. The truck is registered in South Dakota and has a South Dakota title free of liens (I lived in South Dakota prior to moving to Louisville). This truck will make someone a very reliable and good truck. It definitely has the setup, especially if you just need a truck to use around the farm or on the job for pulling. I have all receipts for the work done, except for the fuel pump. I'm not sure what I've done with it. Oh and the warranty from Ford on the engine is good at any Ford dealership. If you have any quesitons feel free to ask.
