1995 Ford F150 XLT review from North America
"It is a very tough and reliable truck!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The manual transmission slave cylinder has been replaced about every 35,000 miles. I've replaced three so far.
There are two fuel tanks on this truck each with its own fuel pump, I've replaced a total of three pumps.
I have also replaced each fuel tank due to corrosion and leaking.
The twin I-beam suspension is tough, but once the front shocks start to wear, watch the inside of your tires wear right off.
General comments?
This truck has never left me stranded.
I've kept up on preventative maintenance and enjoyed a reliable truck.
After 145,000 miles I still feel it is a very dependable ride and it still looks great.
I don't plan on getting rid of it until it hits 250,000 miles!
