Ford F350 4x4 Diesel ex fire truck we picked up going up for sale on eBay with no reserve! 4-7-2023

[@lifeintornadoalley]

My city owned one of these gems. Before upgrading to a field rig, we used this with a tank on the back. Due to family status, during my city employment, it was handed down to me as a mechanic part truck for city vehicles. We had shifts, but my truck didn't. Came home with me every night, paid for by the tax payers. Unlimited fuel as well. I couldn't complain. Our mechanics kept it running until it's retirement and auction. I think it was bought from a neighboring company in the 80s when they upgraded to the "water buckets" (tankers)

I like how you push your boys out of their comfort zone but are patient as they navigate their learning curve. Great job, Dad.

[@johncolasanto605]

teach them young and they gain a good work ethic..and an understanding of the job.. My Pop started teaching me welding/mechanic work when i was 8 and always loved it

[@justincase6645]

That is one cheery fire truck , cant believe the condition , she has seen a lot of love , i hope her new owner continues the love!

[@louGriggs1944]

Great video. I know you tried to hide it but that truck came from the fire district where I live. You gassed her up the first time about 10 minutes from my house. When C & C get's done with it, it will be a truck that anyone would be proud to own. If I knew you were coming I'd have baked a cake. Or at least bought you and the family lunch. Thanks for another great one.

[@leol1682]

Wow , like this truck he's new .

[@everestyeti]

Who wouldn't like to have thier very own fire engine, how cool is that. Shame you couldn't get the sirens to work, mind you Kevin would have been pressing that button every 5 minutes, so probably a good thing. Hopefully it went to someone who's going to look after it.🤗👍

[@MySynthDungeon]

Just makes my day!! Lov ya!! Dad and Tucker ,, and Mom, the Guys!! Coffees on! Cheers!;-)!

[@Chuckiewashere]

Pierce Manufactured the Service Body and Bumper Extention. They would have also installed all the emergency lights and siren. That is a clean truck.

[@iamrichrocker]

firemen always take good care of their equipment..time and lives matter that they do..good score..

[@dustoff1472]

You should keep it and let the local fire department use it for parades and education trips to schools. Tks for sharing.

[@mikesmith8952]

Install a Banks sidewinder Turbo and enjoy the additional benefits including mikeage!, Power and the unmistakable sound Turbos make..

[@firewalker1372]

Very nice rig, one big thing I learned when it comes to used fire rigs. Don’t look so much at the miles, look more at the hours. Usually fire rigs will have more hours then miles. She’s a beautiful truck though for its age. Well taken care of.

[@michaeld_68]

That's a Captain Kleeman truck right there!!!!

[@MartinP1214]

You are the only person that can make me jealous, you get the best toys!

Really enjoyable video. As good as any Hollywood dream day out but real. And only one photographer. Win Win...

[@davidmunro5577]

It is called a gaggle only when the geese are on the ground. If they are flying it is called a skein of geese. So you heard a skein of them flying past.

[@RandyHunt19]

Nice yellow boots Kevin you should patented them buggers!🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@heatherlane9270]

Sound looking investment and trust the auction goes out with a profit.

[@kwmiked]

Omg Flashback to my first job! We had one of those with a flatbed and spray tank for chemicals for landscaping, we called it the SLED , just keep your foot to the floor to keep it moving

[@trickstothetrades1801]

A “trick the trades” is to filling the fuel faster turn the nozzle on its side (handle at 3 O’clock) works for most utility bed trucks

[@jimhancock5047]

Drive it like you stole it! Hmmm..... 4.10's? Never mind... Great service truck!!!

[@terryrogers1025]

Nice truck for sure, a lot of possibilities with it, thanks for the tag along video sir, enjoyed seeing those 2 young men of yours again.

[@Jeremy-de2of]

Now your like peg zip ties & bias plus driving back an ole idi 6.9 fuel turned up lol beautiful truck

[@flatdaddio]

You find some great trucks! Very cool! Good luck with your sale!

[@jz1340]

Super Clean Heavy Duty Rescue Truck....Great Buy!! Low mileage....Check the engine hours. Fire Department Trucks have high idle time on scene.

[@darylcase8400]

Pierce is an excellent manufacturer out of Wisconsin, the foot pads are usually for a Q siren, I didn’t see one on the bumper. Great find.

[@ronbianchi7545]

Nice find. This truck will make a nice service truck for somebody. Happy Easter to everybody at C&C

[@railroadman57]

Beautiful truck super clean this will surely outlast the new trucks with good care great find Clint your the man !!

[@kevinkenyon7045]

Clinton awesome video! Thanks for sharing! Kevin

[@harveylong5878]

very nice score Clinton. someone took care of that one. a few modern upgrades here and there, somebody is going have themself one helluva sweet service truck/pit truck. she might not get out here on way anytime fast, but she'll get you there without shedding hundreds of pounds via body/frame lightening

[@danc9440]

Thought it would bring more than $16,952.... I hope they do list the white Ford spy truck on eBay. That one is certainly a beauty!!!

[@dougkolb3706]

Pass through compartment is set up for 2 tall air bottles laying flat. They are used to refill the small air bottles the firefighters wear on their back.

[@carloskawasaki656]

Thank you 👍👍👍👍

[@michaelmullins1290]

Perfect road mechanic truck or excavation company tool truck. Logger Wade, Dirt Perfect, Letsdig18. Any of those guys would fit great.

[@stevenlatham4397]

My very first vehicle in life was a 1987 F-250 Lariat, 6.9, 4 speed, 4x4. I loved that truck and drove it half of 8th grade until I was 20. I sold it to a guy that said he had big plans. Sadly, it’s sitting in the exact same spot that I parked it on his property 17 years ago. It has mulberry trees growing up between box and the cab.

[@BFT88]

So go buy it back!

[@stevenlatham4397]

@@BFT88 I’ve tried numerous times. It’s too far gone now, the trees have distorted the body enough to break the back window and mice, coons, opossums have it completely destroyed. I have to pass by it a couple of times a month. 😢

[@regtimmins1944]

Little bit of paint and mod it will make a nice serve truck come on hunter it's four wheel drive with a winch all you have to do is pull up to your fishing whole toss the winch out with a net and catch all the fish you need you eaven have a big bumper to sit on while you fish 😂

[@danielashford2430]

Nice truck for sure and a good video…peace brother…

[@trickstothetrades1801]

A neighbor down the road from me has almost the identical truck. When I used to work at a tire shop the owner bought an F350 dually service truck new same year as yours only it was 2 wheel drive with a standard shift transmission. You are right the 6.9 was gutless but was a trooper. The only problem we had was that if you pulled the cable that drained the water separator it would loose prime and the only way I could get it to prime was to put a Mighty Vac on the shrader valve by the secondary fuel filter

[@robincochran1304]

Nice looking truck single tank was because it's a fire truck don't need lots of fuel cause they do a fire refill.

[@ToneyMartin-p5b]

Real nice truck

[@shanemcdonald4956]

That truck is in mint condition.

[@robertlane3513]

I saw a bolt missing out of the flywheel cover. halifax Nova Scotia canada

[@mrbill8542]

Just add a crane and welder and you got a nice off road service truck !!!

[@wendellmcqueary8624]

Very impressed. If I were 20yrs younger, I would put my hat in the ring for this one. Could be a heck of a service truck or donation as a back up for small fire dept.

[@warrenmichael918]

There are many small town FD that would LOVE to add this to their fleet i bet. We have 2 guys here locally that have similar trucks they use as their construction business trucks.

[@Richard-C]

nice truck and in great condition for a 36 year old truck, it's older than your 2 son's put together 😁, great video thanks for the ride along 👏👏👏👍👍👍

[@johnsonwilliam1023]

That thing you keep calling a radio is the siren box controller

[@CaptainRon13]

My guess it the fire dept. delivered the cab and chassis to Pierce Manufacturing, and they did the rest.

[@pauldillinger2286]

Love that truck. She is super clean.Great buy.

[@C_CEQUIPMENT]

Thanks 👍

[@oddtechman]

[@wink9970]

ILLINOIS (i · luh · noy) NO "S" please Clinton. Nice rig even if its not a surveillance truck.

[@tiredoldmechanic1791]

I don't know why Imron paint isn't used more. We painted trucks and equipment with it where I worked and 30 years later it looked the same where the paint on new equipment fades out in 3 or 4 years.

[@jameshicks4831]

That Rad core support for the Mid Side FO-Mo-Co Diesels Was Built at MSI Warren Stamping Warren Mi. Like most thing they were sold out back in 99. If I'm not mistaken they stop making the the Rad core support in 97-98 model year. I worked There from 89-99 before moving on to better thing for my Family. The Last I heard Flex & Gate own what was left.

[@thomasyerbey337]

Great video Clint 🇺🇸

[@lewisjohnson2732]

That would also make some volunteer fire dept a nice rescue truck

[@marcusa3911]

Utility bed could be a Steelweld or Knapheide. I made the panels for Steelweld back in the day. That could be a "fun" truck!!!

[@quietbrianquiet]

Nice truck for sure. Thanks for something different.

[@calebjones983]

Good deal thought you might sell the bed separate but great video

[@robincochran1304]

Replaced alternator 3 times to get a good one.

[@dustinhenry6142]

That’s a beauty for sure would make a awesome service truck! Those leese neville alternators really have good output but when they go they are expensive. I’d struggle selling that we have the Ohio weigh reduction program here on our stuff.

[@russellgilson4072]

Road trip with your boys!

[@zv2019]

that's a nice truck! I'm looking for A extended cab long bed obs, 7.3, but here in Chicago every one I find is clapped out with a high price tag. ill just keep fixing my 99 lol

[@scotttennessen]

Wow, stole that One bud!.

[@buck3409]

Back in the day we called it 255 air conditioner. Two windows down and 55 mph.

[@danacampbell-vu2ut]

That would make a wonderful maintenance vehicle with a welder and a big vice on the rear bumper. 😅😊

[@robertvannicolo4435]

Clint that body was most likely custom designed and built by Pierce manufacturing our fire company bought and still buys from them that body alone probably cost fifty grand when that truck was purchased the new ladder they just bought was over a million

[@ProudPapaw88]

Up to $4,200.00. Nice looking truck. I’m sure some volunteer fire department somewhere could use that. It would be great for them if they can get it at a good price. Great video, Clinton. Thanks for sharing.

Too old

Nice truck with low miles 👌

[@robincochran1304]

[@tjjewell4115]

Great Video Clint, your Boys are growing up, be safe and I hope you get a lot of $ for the Fire Truck.

[@chriscrispino70]

turn on siren on the box that should do the floor button sir

[@nicke1903]

As firetrucks age out of service you can get some deals, it's a nice truck but too old to be out running call's, but still has plenty of life in it for civilian use. I'm sure that was a good light rescue truck while it was used. Now for someone that has a Sawmill I would have some 3k gal pumper tanker for "just in case" or if you was rural and remote a lil brush rig that had pump n roll capability wether a Aux engine or PTO driven pump, 4x4,300 gallons of water or so....be handy.
