1982 Ford F250 XL review from North America
"Best truck Detroit made since 1982"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I got the vehicle, nearly every thing imaginable was wrong. I had to replace everything from windows to tires on it. But nothing serious was wrong with it. The engine needed a tune up and the brakes were bad. I put $1000.00 in her rite off the bat. And other than a water pump at 173,000 miles and a starter at 174,000 she has been awesome.
General comments?
She is a great truck.
I use it to work and cruz.
This truck will work all day long and ask for more. Long after the owner wants to quit.
I honestly can't complain about a truck that someone was going to throw away and with a little love and elbow grease came back to life and fights every day!!!
