The Midwest Ford Dealers recently donated a 2008 Ford F150 Midwest Limited Edition truck to the Iowa 4-H Foundation to help raise funds for local and state 4-H Programs.

The truck, valued at nearly $35,000, will be equipped with popular options, including a flex-fuel engine allowing it to run on regular gasoline or E-85 ethanol.
