1997 Ford F150 f150 XL review from North America
"This is a very good tough truck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
This is the most reliable truck I have ever owned.
The transmission was replaced at over 300000km, which is to be expected.
The rear diff was rebuilt at over 300000km, but could have gone for a while yet.
General comments?
This truck is still with its original engine.
The gas mileage I get is great.
This truck hasn't spent a lot of time in the shop others than regular care.
