It was a much better f150 than ford builds today.
Good advice right here. The last great F150.

And now you are claiming this is a FACT?!?

Think about what you type, man. This rhetoric isn't talking about trucks, you're talking about people.
How about instead of trying to be a bossy bully you just block me then you won't see my posts.

All I did was call out YOUR bullying. Or do you think you don't do that?

Common guys, we have a new poster asking for advice about buying his first f150 and ya'll start bickering like an old married couple. Not cool.

Anyways if you are still looking at this truck my advice is to pass on buying a $16K truck in collage. Bottom line is it is still over 100K miles and will need maintenance. I can't imagine you having a lot time and/or money to spend on a truck you will be making hefty payments(for a collage student) for years to come. Last thing you want is for something stupid fail on you on your way to a final and then spending thousands you don't have to fix it when your next tuition payment is due. If you have a free ride forget everything I said and buy away.

Also the recommendation for buying an old mid 90's and restoring it, while fun, is not something a college student would have time to do.

If you are set on buying this truck make sure to have it looked over real good by a trusted mechanic.
