1988 Ford F-150 User Reviews

Old But Good 1988 Ford F-150 — After being owned for nearly 21 yrs the build quality and durability has been very good and parts are still readily available from most parts outlets and the aftermarket. I've driven all of the newer models and they are much better than what I have, but I wonder how well they will hold up 10,15, 20 yrs down the road. My only gripe with it is lack of power even though I have upgraded the engine some (MAF conversion, headers, exhaust). I kinda wish it had the 351W when I tow heavy loads so I make the best with what I have. Gas mileage isn't that great 13-15 mpg at best.

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

Long Wheelbase — its the super long wheelbase adn it 4wd with a fuel injected 5.0 and it runs good and its fun to drive it also gets decent mileage with the 3.00 gears in both sxles and its a good work truck

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

... — performance-blow your doors off. build quality-strong as hell and you cant kill a straight 6 . appearance-its an 88 what do you want? cost-$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ sink hole in gas but you pay very little fixing problems with it!! fun factor- anywhere you want to go....and i mean anywhere

F150 — Worked good unil the electrical system went out. Good old stick, manual 4 wheel drive. Good towing ability, passanger room of maybe 4 people at one time. Cargo room could have alot of stuff in the back, haled alot of the drywall and materials for my brothers house in it

88 Ford — This was my first truck and i love it. I got it from my dad about 2 years ago and since have added 6inches of lift and a 2 in body lift. It is now on 37 x13.50x 15. I have probly replaced just about every part of this truck. It is probly not a truck that you would want if you cant work on it youself. But the plus side parts are cheap.
