im just curious i own a 95 150 5sp. 2wd straight six its an ext. cab shortbed im just curious if anyones ever seen one like mine in 4wd? i cant seem to find one i been lookin ruthlessly too, i also know that a 300-6 was an option on a f250 has anyone ever seen a 250 5sp 4wd 300-6? if so you have seen my dream truck im just in love with the motors i guess im wantin another one too but just curious if anyone has seen one thanks

 

No i havent seen a F250 with an i6 but im told it was severly underpowered. If i owned a 250 i would go with AT least a 5.8

 

the older model f250s (late 80s early 90s) werent really any bigger than the 150s they just had heavier duty components and a bigger payload capacity, so I wouldn't say they were underpowered. But im not sure what year they started making them physically bigger. If you pull the badges off an 89 for instance, without looking under the truck it would be hard to tell what it is.

 

don't know about 4 whl dr. but i had a 95 150 ext cab with 300 6 n auto. it pulled like a tractor in every gear. been kickin myself ever since i sold it. JMHO. good luck on you quest. dave

 

The 4.9 is not severely underpowered. Maybe for an F250 but for my F150 it's terrific.

 

ive got a friend who had a f250 with the 4.9
always said it was a good truck but wasnt the strongest truck ever

 

Didnt the F250 forgo the Ibeam and go with a solid axle with leaf springs? Or was that just an option?

 

Mine is a 4x4 ex cab 5 spd with 6' bed (I'm assuming that's what you mean by short compared to the 8' bed?). Wrong year though...1992

 

yeah burn the light that is exactly what im lookin for and the motor is not under powered!? maybe in comparing how fsat it will go the best thing about the six is its all low end TORQUE baby my friends dad had a 250 reg cab long bed 300-6 auto pulled a t190 bobcat all the time with no problems its just not the fastest truck, i dont drive a pickup truck to go fast boys its to make my money and get me around is all my stang is for goin fast, but anyhow yeah 250 str8 six is a bad *** gas truck if yall ever see one

 

and no the 250's still had t-beams to my knowledge only 350's of these years had solid axles, thats why you buy a dodge all dodges got solid axles baby not doggin ford im a ford man all the way just sayin
