1995 Ford F150 XL review from North America
"A reliable vehicle that is great looking"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Speedometer became "bouncy" and stopped working at 120000 kilometers.
Body rust in rear wheel wells at 72000 kilometers.
Front Brakes replaced at 60000 kilometers, then again at 120000 kilometers.
Rear brakes replaced at 125000 kilometers.
General comments?
Very reliable vehicle, never has left me stranded.
Gas mileage is poor, but it is a truck.
Interior fit and finish is not as refined as comparable GM models of this year.
Front bench seats are not supportive, and become uncomfortable for long trips.
Good vehicle overall.
Will purchase another Ford Vehicle again.
