F150 wannabe
Hello all,
I've had a VW for the past few years but I'm needing to move on to something, well, a little bigger. I move around A LOT and it's been a tight squeeze getting everything into a little car.
Anyways, I'm looking at F-150's from '89 to '96, and right now I'm looking at a '96 with 200,000 KM, 5.0, standard cab/bed.
I was wondering if anyone knows what I should be looking for before buying, such as common issues that might not be easy to detect? I know my way around my VW and I'm hoping to know my way around a new F-150. Just wanna know what to look for right away without finding it out later on.
Any help would be appreciated. Can't wait to get the truck!
