Hey. I am the proud owner of a 96 f-150 short bed four wheel drive. The poor bastard has been totalled twice (I bought it while I worked at a body shop) and has over 220k on the stock 5.0 engine. I was about to sell it but I sure can't replace it for the nothing that anybody would pay me for it. So now my plans are to throw some 35's on and have some fun with it. I have never had this truck off road (on purpose!). I had a couple broncos to play with when I got this thing. The only thing that I don't like about it (besides the rust that came after I quit the body shop) is that it is a regular cab. In the 6 years and 120k that I have put on it I haven't even tuned it up. It ate a few u-joints, fuel pump, radiator, and heater core though. I have no pics as of yet, not that it matters, take your average white 96 pickup photo and color some rust around the fenders.

Believe it or not, this is the newest pickup I have owned. Most of mine have been the 70's models (love those trucks).

 

welcome to the forum. i can understand you're dislike about the reg cab. i like a little more room also. put on the 35's and have some fun. send pics when you're stuck.

 

Welcome to the site!

You sure cant beat a reg cab truck off road, they are so much more manuverable that a ex cab. Who dosent like 70's trucks, big power and built like a brick **** house!

 

Welcome to the forum, nice introduction!
