1997 Ford F150 Supercab review from North America
"Can't beat a Ford truck, now or ever"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A few rust problems, but it is 13 years old after all.
General comments?
Great old truck, can't kill the motor. Still runs like new.
Had a few mechanical problems, but with 265,000 on her, that is expected. I had a 250 reg cab that gave me 375,000 on the 4.6, and it is still running. It's a donor for this one.
