Sounds like @JeremieBaker truck....minus the 4x4
1996 F350 with the 351 v8 gasser. Regular cab. 4WD. 5 Speed Manual
Not fast
Not powerful
No AC
No power windows or door locks

But it was Dad’s and it still has less than 70k miles on it.

pic from maybe a month or two ago with the truck in it…

  2. Talon X4 LV
88' F250 4x4 351v8 4.10 gears 5 speed with creeper. That thing was a gasaholic. Best I got was 8 mpg with no ac on and downhill. But she pulled like a raped ape!
Dad had an ‘86 F250 4x4 with 460 4bbl, 4.10 gears and a 4 speed, Waldoch pkg. got 8mpg loaded or empty. Could pass everything in sight except for the gas station….

It happens. Lol. The e-lockers did start giving us trouble in it years ago so there was a short period of a couple of weeks it was 2WD. Lol. We replaced the factory e-lockers with old school manual warn turn ins though.
