The Ford F-350 dump truck practically did not leave the garage and was used only once for its intended purpose. He traveled only 2550 km in 26 years.
In the US state of Missouri, a regular 1997 Ford F-350 was sold for incredible money. They paid $84,800 for a small dump truck – like a new Porsche Cayenne. This was reported by The Drive site.
Such a high cost of a utility truck is due to its safety. The 26-year mileage of the dump truck is only 2550 km. The machine was practically not used for its intended purpose – only once in 1999 brought a load of gravel.
It turns out that this Ford F-350 dump truck was purchased by the owner of a Ford dealership. He practically did not drive – and only periodically visited the service station at his dealership to change oil, filters and other consumables. As a result, the truck has become a time capsule.
Most of the time, the Ford F-350 truck was parked in a heated garage. It has local paint and a clean base without the slightest rust stain. The owner recently changed the tires of the car. Now the dump truck has gone to a private collection.
Under the hood of the truck is the 225 horsepower 7.3-liter turbodiesel V8 Power Stroke. With. and 610 Nm. It is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
