1998 Ford F150 XLT review from North America
"Need to trade in before 100,000 miles"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Heater core went out at 125000 Extremely difficult to get to!!!
Lower ball-joints bad, No grease certs.
Interior light will not turn out, had to pull the fuse.
Brakes keep jerking even after complete overhual...
General comments?
Overall it's an OK truck just has a lot of gremlins to fight.
