General Comments

Strong as mule and tough as nails. My 1996 Ford F150 XLT 4x2 Truck has been through an assortment of trials which it has passed with flying colors. The last 147,000 miles have been rough ones for the truck. It has hauled dirt, gravel, towed cars on trailers and carried various house parts used during construction. Other than the oil changes every 3000 miles, my truck has by no means been babied and it has the scratches to prove it. I wash the truck twice a year if it needs it or not. Yet the truck has never left me stranded or stuck where it could get out. This is the 5th and largest truck I've owned. Others where 2 Jeep CJ7s, a Jeep J10 Pickup and a Ford Ranger. The F150 was purchased after driving a friends F250 4x4. The size and power of the F250 were addictive so I bought the F150 and sold the Ranger. The Ranger had 160,000 miles when I sold it and never had a problem either.

My F150 has been a work truck. It's not fancy but it gets the job done. If that is your purpose in getting a truck you can't go wrong with an F150.
