Is 199k on a 1999 Ford F-150 good?
Hey,
im looking into buying a truck soon and im looking at a 1999 Ford F-150 with 199k on it.
Im wondering if that would be good or if it would start breaking down on me, it says he drove it to Nevada and back from Vancouver
thanks.

No, definitely not good, most vehicles will last for 2-3 hundred thousand miles before dying, but this is only if they are maintained properly, and largely depends on the kind of miles (highway is good, city is bad). With no way of proving that he took good care of the vehicle, 200,000 is pretty high. Unless it's a rebuilt engine, i would steer towards something with around 100,000 miles or less.
How can I start a new business manufacturing solar panels in Nevada's largest industrial park in North America?
As a Nevadan that enjoys 95% clear blue sunny skies I would like to see power companies help pave the way to become less oil dependent through initiatives helping to foster growth in this sector. I've lost my house in a divorce. I resigned under duress from 4 yrs work in Iraq. Now liquidating all my savings and on unemployment I want to rebuild my life and America by helping to produce jobs, upgrade our energy infrastructure and have some firm footing in building a retirement again.

Do you have some chemcial and electrical engineers on hand? If not, it could be a problem.
Powerfilm, who manufactures flexible solar panel for example, you may have even some in use over in Iraq, they started as a number of former 3M employees who saw promise in that item, and bought the production rights and everything they could from 3M and set up shop in Iowa because taxation and other regulations were too high in Minnesota. You might even be able to buy into that company and set up some manufacturing out there as well. I am not sure how water intensive their process is though as that is going to be an issue in the very near future in Nevada. But also something to consider no matter what you do out there.
You might want to start perusing recent and current patent applications and see what might hold promise to try and purchase. It also means you may want to start networking with various alternative energy groups, even some of the universities, especially those involved with the DOE "Solar Decathalon". Which also may mean networking at the alternative energy fair outside of Green Bay, third weekend of June. You might find a few prospects in your area at "Burning Man" Third week/ weekend of August just follow the string of RV's and odd looking trailers as they turn off of I-80. There are other energy fairs and similar events with big draws in a few other places around the US as well, I just do not recall their details.
I lost track of how many hours I spent on dialup researching a book I was working on at the time, suffice it to say probably a few thousand hours there culling through various component manufacturers application notes, data sheets, and related documents from many facets and directions, from some few solar panel maufacturers I could find with a web presence, and even symbiant technologies in lighting, heat, etc.
Just don't rely on any one single search engine when doing the research they tend to kick up different results from the same criteria and boolean arguments.
Does anyone know anything about lemon laws in nevada on a used car?
Whwn u have a service contract.
Posted by TO/CUTE99
Lemon Laws in NV are very specific. There are NO LEMON LAWS on used cars.
You buy cars as is in NV, and that is the end of hte story. A dealer is required to ensure that safety related items function and are within tolerances (lights, seatbelts, airbags, brakes). We are required to disclose salvage or rebuilt titles. If those requirements are met, and you signed on the dotted line, you own a car and its problems.
The time to check your car is before you buy. Once you buy y ou agree to take the car you were shown, in the condition it was presented.
Your warranty has specific terms and conditions. ANy work that needs to be done, and is covered under the warranty, will be paid for by the warranty company. Work not covered under warranty is your responsibility. You pay out of y our own pocket.
————-
While the Lemon Law doesn't cover used vehicles, buyers still have some protection under Nevada statutes.
A dealer selling a vehicle with more than 75,000 miles on the odometer must include an inspection of the engine and drivetrain, and submit a report of that inspection to the buyer. The dealer is required to disclose any defects he or she knows about.
If the vehicle has problems that weren't disclosed at the time of the sale, you as the buyer will have the right to submit a complaint about the dealer to the DMV. The complaint should include a concise statement about the nature of the problem and any relevant facts, copies of repair orders or other documentation that relates to the complaint, and your statement about how you want the matter resolved.
The DMV has 10 days to notify the dealer of the complaint, and to conduct an investigation into the matter. If the dealer is found to have violated industry regulations, he or she will be required to resolve the matter, usually making repairs or taking the vehicle back for a refund of your money.
If the DMV rules against you, you have the right to request an appeal from the director of the DMV, available at:
Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles555 Wright WayCarson City, NV 89711Phone: (775) 684-4785Fax: (775) 684-4493The DMV will keep a record of complaints, and if the dealer in question has received three or more complaints in a 12-month period, that dealership will be subject to stringent warranty and sales requirements for all future transactions.
Whether you want protection under the Lemon Law for a new or a used car, an attorney who specializes in Lemon Law cases can advocate on your behalf and serve as an intermediary between you and the dealer or manufacturer.
