Ford F-150 (1992 - 1996) Reviews, Pricing & Specs

This is a great truck if you keep it maintained. My truck spent its first 13 years in the sierra mountain taking on the winter snow and ice. The past 5 years have been down by the beach enduring the salt air. No major problems with the truck just regular maintainence. People still ask me what year it is since it is in such good shape. I wouldn't buy any other brand after having this truck. The gas mileage is low, but that was the range back in the 90's. It has hauled wood, trailers, boats and more without any problems and it hugs the snow bound roads in 4-wheel drive. It's a keeper.Apr 22, 2014

Performance - Great for what I need it for, it's a truck and it does it's job. Brakes are ok not perfect but not bad. Average I guess. Handles great. Build Quality - Great! No squeaks or rattles, just needed to replace air filter and one light when I got it. Appearance - Awesome! It's got 30's right now but I wanna put 34's or 35's and a 3 inch lift on it sometime soon. Interior is great except one little tear in the driver seat. Cost of Ownership - Mileage I have know idea. Maintenance is good and easy. Fun Factor - FUN AS HELL TO DRIVE!! Enough said!Aug 21, 2010

For truck that weighs over 4,000 pounds, the acceleration is phenomenal. I have clocked myself at about 7.0 seconds from 0- 60. The other surprising thing considering its weight is how well it brakes. It has saved me from a handful of accidents because of its stopping power. Towing and load carrying abilities are excellent for its class. I have loaded that thing up, plus towed a trailer and it still accelerates on climbs. The biggest downside to this vehicle is the gas mileage with a max of 14 stock. With a new muffler to replace the old one, I have seen mileage increase a mile and a half to 2 miles per gallon. With my odometer reading at under 60,000, I'm convinced that I will be able to keep the truck that I got from my Granddad for a long time. Oct 03, 2009

The 351w has a moderate hp, but massive low end torque, which is what you want in any practical pick-up. It's been in the family since '92 and having been driven on crappy northern roads and never seeing a day in a garage, it's held up very well, having just rolled over 256K as of 8-13-09. Engine still runs strong as ever, 400/351w is ford's best small block and completely bullet proof. I am now a fan of the ford Automatic overdrive trans, but since im going in excess of 80 fairly often, i sometimes wish i had that 5th gear. Mileage bites, but then again, back in 92, gas was about a buck a gallon. For it being a relatively new EFI system on an old iron block at the time, it's given me almost no grief considering its been left in the elements nearly everyday since it rolled out of the factory. It's been a daily driver for years. as for the fun factor- it's not exactly a hot rod, its a truck that with full tanks and the driver on board is pushing nearly 7000 lbs gvw. still, it hugs the road and is very predictable. How ever, if you've seen me drive, you know how much i put it through it's paces. Given the opportunity, I'd get another model like this in a heart beat, but only with the 351.Aug 16, 2009

It's a great truck strong built and very good in the mud and snow. it has a few problems but everything that you buy will. It hauls a load with ease and it's a 5 speed so it makes it easier. it's just a half ton but it's a very good truck and hasn't really gave me much trouble. I do think that ford is a stronger built truck than all the other dealers Aug 05, 2008

I love my truck. It is a Mark III conversion, so I have full leather and wood inside. There are hardwood oak panels on my doors, dash, and it has a full overhead wooden console with limo lights and a power, yes, power rear sliding window. The truck is dropped a couple inches, and has a full exterior body kit, as well as the custom wheels. the sticker on this truck was 34,000$ back in 95. Not too many of these trucks were made, and it is, in my eyes, the precursor to the Harley edition f150. Most of the Mark III's came with the 5.0, but mine has been graced with the 5.8!!! Awesome power!!! Jul 13, 2008

This is the first truck I've bought that was newer than (at most) 20 years old. So far, it's taken absolutley everything I've thrown at, including but not limited to, personel carrier at a 50+ acre grass/wildland fire, hauling/pulling loads in excess of 6 tons (for a half-ton!), and treating it like a hot-rod on the streets. I've only owned 1 tougher truck than this (it was a 1978 version of this one, actually) and it only got 5 Miles Per Gallon. Considering fuel prices now-a-days, my measley 12 Miles Per Gallon is not bad for what I put this truck through. If I could fix one thing on this thing, it would definitly be the transmission, which (when I bought it) I was unaware of its deteriated condition and it has only gotten worse from there.

a ton of lower end torque, pretty good mid range hp, about 9 to 1 compression ratio, very reliable 4WD, and great ground clearence. with my michelin LTX tires (not in photo) it sits about 26" off the ground. 5 litre engine that with my simple mods puts out about 330 lbs ft of torque at about 2,000 RPM. has a smoothe 5 speed manual trans with a fairly light clutch. ENGINE IS INDESTRUCTABLE!May 25, 2008
