1993 Ford F150 XLT review from North America
"Excellent and reliable work truck and daily driver"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Needs new universal joints.
Needs new ball joints in front at $300 per side.
Needed new distributer.
Rusted through in many spots.
Needs new clutch or maybe just an adjustment.
Vents are cheap and broken except for the one on the left side of the steering wheel.
Leaked oil from the trans, needed new gasket.
General comments?
Theres no crazy bumps in this truck, it rides better than a luxury car.
5 speed manual trans is bulletproof.
In-line 6 has a good deal of horsepower and very high torque.
At 110mph it handled very well.
Interior has held up extremely well for its mileage and age.
Extremely poor gas mileage which could be fixed.
Am mildly unhappy with the open differential when truck to go in the grass.
