1997 Used Ford F-150 3 Dr XLT Extended Cab LB Review

This truck is very reliable. It takes a lot for it to get stuck for a two wheel drive. It has a third door on the cab extension that is very convienient. The white paint makes it look clean and more "put together". It accelerates pretty quick, and brakes hard. It gets about 24 mpg highway. Has a huge 4.2 V6, and you would think it was a V8 if you drove it. The best word for it is dependable.
Pros:
Not very old, looks clean, good gas mileage
Cons:
little exhaust rattle, and visible rust on the bottom drivers door.

Love my V-8 engine with a 4.6L. Good pick up, great top speed. Overall apperence is awesome, only downside is that all three of my doors are rotting at the bottom and need to be replaced and my step bars into the truck have rust holes in them. I have 17" super swappers on them, with an upgraded suspension and towing package. Looking to put a lift kit on it this summer for an increse of 6".
Pros:
Sharp Looking
Cons:
Rust is starting to show

I've had my F-150 for a long time now and I have really enjoyed it. No,
Pros:
Sturdy, takes a licking and keeps on ticking, comfortable interior, not
too long for maneuvering through parking lots and narrow places, handling is good.
Cons:
Front heavy, skids easily, no 4-wheel Drive, braking faulty because of
front heaviness, acceleration nonexistent. |

has a good motor and tranny, nice to look at, can tow anything although sometimes has trouble on hills. Bad on gas but rides nice and is awesome in the mud - can get out of anything in 4WD Lo. The seats aren't the most comfy but i love sitting up high and being able to see all around me. Fun to drive - takes off fast at lights!
Pros:
Looks cool, good power.
Cons:
Gas guzzler.

The truck rides exactly like one. It is built like a truck, so not much care for quality to speak of. It is very cheap to maintain and insure, which is a plus, but the fuel mileage from the 5.4L Triton V8 is a gas-hog.
Pros:
if you need a truck
Cons:
if you dont need a truck

It's ok. I like the fact that it's large and people get out of my way. The only problem is it used to be a work truck and it's sort of beaten to hell. I like to think of it as a project though.
Pros:
Size
Cons:
Needs some suspension work.

Truck has a 4.6L (289 c.i.) V-8. Very solid and reliable engine. Lots of power for the size of the motor. About 210-220 h.p. and about 300 lb. ft. torque. Motor has a real nice grunt... Averaging about 15 mpg but on the highway it gets around 18-20. Does have a K&N short ram air intake. One thing for sure is you can never go wrong with this piece of American Machinery. Real solid truck!!!
Pros:
The power is there when you need it
Cons:
Cheap plastic dash on drivers side has a crack right down the middle

I has great acceleration and can climb to 90 pretty smokin fast for being 12 years old and being all stock. It needs a new paint job and back cover for less air resistance. Interior leather is still nice and in good condition despite a tear on the passenger seat. Roof is tearing everywhere due to Texas weather but all in all its really nice. It still runs pretty smooth and can take a turn really well for a truck. Gas mileage is about 15-17 mpg but puts out some serious torque. Its a v8 4.7 liter engine tuned for alil more acceleration. It burns rubber real easily which can be annoying when you don't want to but can provide for fun times.
Pros:
(read the review!)
Cons:
Its a truck! It can flip real easily.

It is very roomy in the cab, it actually feels more roomy that our Full size car, my wife even agrees on that. I have bucket seats up front which is nice because it is a standard and if there was someone in the middle seat shifting would be a pain.
Pros:
Roomy, Standard Tranny, 4.2L V6 (does everything I need to do with it).
Cons:
Needed a little work when I got it because it had been sitting a little while, but it was worth it.
