1997 Ford F350 XLT review from North America
"An impressive workhorse"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I keep loosing the center caps to the alloy wheels.
General comments?
The truck is a crew cab with four wheel drive and has awesome power. The fuel economy has been good for its size as well. I have averaged as high as 18.7 miles per gallon unloaded and 14.2 while towing my fifth wheel trailer. There is no comparison between this truck and the Chevrolet C2500, I owned before.
