1999 Ford F150 XLT 4x2 review from North America
"Awesome performance and awesome bang for the buck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Car cell phone charger killed the battery. Was replaced under extended warranty.
I guess the gas mileage could be counted as a fault, but with the addition of a few airflow modifications my gas mileage has risen to roughly 15/24mpg.
General comments?
Even with the quad cab and a 900+ lb. tonneau cover this truck really hauls.
Truck has surprisingly good grip in all weather conditions.
I can seat 6 medium sized people or 5 large people.
Nothing wrong with the truck at all.
Has a beautiful exhaust note when modified.
Intelligently made interior with the 60/40 seats.
AWESOME bang for the buck.
All in all I love my truck and would recommend anyone even remotely interested in picking one up.
