I Miss This Truck It Drove Awesome In The Snow And Sounded Sweet. — Performance- Acceleration sucks, braking was ok, and it handled like a truck. It would pull like crazy, but it wouldn't do it fast. Build Quality- it ran and drove well, the only things I had to put in it was a new u joint, valve cover gasket, and vacuum pump Appearance- It looks tough, it puts hair on your chest just by looking at it. I turned the pump up so it could roll coal which made it even better.\ Cost of ownership- I remember the day I checked the mileage and seen 13 mpg...... it made me want to stand up and cheer.

Primary Use: Utility (towing boats, transporting cargo, etc.)

Pros: its tough looking, and pulls anything you hook up to it.

Cons: Fuel mileage

Loved The Truck, Hated Keeping The Gas Tank Full — loved the truck, got the motor all tuned up pretty much started great in the cold, fox body 5.0 motor swap converted to carb, hard cold starts till i got through with it, 4 speed 4x4, almost impossible to get stuck when in 4 low and granny gear, would pull the world if i asked it to

Primary Use: Commuting to work

Pros: won't get stuck

Cons: 10 mpg, lol

Pros: it's fun

Cons: gas mileage

Built Ford Tough — It's a little over 24 years old and still running stronger than a mule, 351 Cleavland has enough power to pull the world, cheapest car I've owned so far :), Nothing stands in this trucks way, especially small economy cars and children in streets :)

Pros: Strong work horse

Cons: small glove box

1985 F-250 Supercab Long Bed 7.5l C6 — My first car and got it for only $1,000. It has a lot of new parts but everything that didn't get replaced by the previous owner is shot,(streeing gear box, rear shocks, rear bushings)and some odder things like the fuel pump cut off switch and gas gauges not working. Lots of torque though, sounds like it has a cam in it but I think it's just no cats, headers, and the magnaflows.

Primary Use: Commuting to work

Pros: Solid body, strong transmission, 460 power!

Cons: Only a 3 speed, electrical issues
