The Long Haul: 10 Tips to Help Your Truck Run Well Into Old Age
Simple steps to take to help extend the life of your beloved truck
A truck is like most things in life: You get out what you put in. And for those who depend on their vehicle day-in and day-out to deliver results, a bit of care and maintenance goes a long way. While each make and model will have its own special needs (yes that means consulting the owner's manual) with these simple maintenance tips, your truck can continue running like it's fresh off the lot for years to come.
We tapped collective wisdom, and then went to Ford's Global Chief Engineer of Customer Service Engineering John Norton in order to compile these things any man can do to help keep his truck running smoothly. What's customer service engineering, you might ask? Basically, Norton and his team are the people who make sure your truck's easy to fix. They work on solving problems before they become problems. In other words, he's your best friend in the garage.
