1987 Ford F150 review from North America
"What ever you throw at this truck, it will get the job done"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only major thing that has gone wrong with my truck is a small leak from the rear main seal. I have tried replacing the seal, only to find out that it still leaks.
Now, time is starting to show her true self on my truck. The paint is wearing down, so is the drivers side seat. The wipers don't work, and sometimes when I turn the horn gets stuck. Most of the problems are small cosmetic things.
General comments?
I love my Ford, it has taken me around the country for a trip I will never forget. This is one tough work truck and I plan to restore my baby and go for the 1 million mile mark.
