THE MOTORCAR OFFERED
When Tom Hanks specified a tow vehicle for his Airstream trailer he didn't cut corners.
With only one notable exception this 2011 Ford F450 Super Duty Lariat has everything even remotely desirable for towing.
The one thing it has in short supply is miles. Its electronic odometer displays just 4,193.1 miles at the time of cataloging. Even upon arrival at Quail Lodge towing the Airstream it will have well under 5,000 miles from new.
The modest mileage is a good indication of why Tom Hanks' decided to sell the Airstream and the F450: The pace of moviemaking has picked up in the intervening years and if this Ford towed at all since 2011 it was only a few miles within the Los Angeles area.
Finished in Ingot Silver Metallic that complements the Airstream's polished aluminum, it has a Steel Gray interior and a list of standard features and options that goes on nearly forever including a full length cap on the 8-foot bed. It is towing equipped from Ford with wiring harnesses and trailer brake controller for both hydraulic and electric trailer brakes. Power steering and power ABS brakes? Of course. There is a tire pressure monitoring system, trailer sway control, hill start assist, traction control, clearance and pickup bed lights, air conditioning, entertainment system and more.
It has been recently serviced by Santa Monica Ford where new batteries were installed. It has an impeccable CARFAX verifying its one-owner, low mileage history.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire not only a Tom Hanks owned (titled in the name of his production company, Clavius Base, Inc. – after Arthur C. Clarke's fictional moon base) Ford but also a barely used, lavishly equipped F450 Lariat with negligible miles from new at a time when new pickups are beyond scarce and good used ones command over-MSRP prices in wholesale auctions.
