Looking for feedback on towing F150 to buy
I need a truck to tow my toys.. 76 Bronco, 69 Ranchero GT & a 69 Stang fb 428 CJ 4 sp++ that I bought June 1969.
Last Ford truck was a 2000 F350 Crew dually diesel auto 4X4.. for 10 yrs prior 78 F150 5,0 auto 4X4 Lariat - owned that one about 20 yrs,, 69 F350 Camper Special 360 4spd 4X4 about 10 yrs.... I buy one and keep it.
So I am looking for feedback on the +- of the different yrs probably 2001 to 2012. I now live in the SW desert so hauling the 8mpg Bronco to where I play and be able to haul it back IF I break it. Although 70-100 miles of open desert running cam make a long way back to your tow vehicle. Both my 69s are streetable but when its 200-300 miles from where you want to play or show they are somewhat lacking in all modern creature comforts. And if anything does go wrong when playing far from home.
