1987 Ford F150 F-Series review from North America
"Good Basic Truck!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Typical Ford truck front brakes, Heater core.
General comments?
Overall, a damn good workhorse. I needed an 8 ft bed, and the Tacoma I had (which I loved by the way, just too small) had a 6 ft bed. I know the current Ford engines are not as reliable as this old 6 is, so the next truck will probably be a Tundra regular cab 8ft bed.
