1978 F-250 Custom W/low Gear Manual. 4x4 Long Bed Single Cab. — One of the most reliable trucks I've ever had, all The original equipment still works from factory. A/C, radio, speedo and gauges, lights. Not a luxury vehicle but a good dependable work horse. Wouldn't ever trade for any other work truck. Primary Use: Utility (towing boats, transporting cargo, etc.) |

Great Truck. — I bought this truck new in 1978 and it's on it's second engine, mileage about 280,000, second transmission and third transfer case. It goes through U~Joints, (it has six of them) more often than I think it should. It came from factory with a 2bbl and at the time Warranties were only 12,000 miles or 12 months. So after warranty ran out I put an Edelbrock intake and a Holley 600cfm and gave me noticeable more HP Primary Use: Utility (towing boats, transporting cargo, etc.) |

1978 F-series Truck — love everything about it..its been a great truck and a fun one to restore. ford nailed it when they built this style of truck when it comes to body lines, the truck looks, how it rides for being a 3/4 ton and the performance...nothing i dont love about it Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |
