1994 Ford F150 XLT Supercab review from North America
"Nothing stops the Green Machine!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rebuilt transmission at 125,000.
Replaced starter and timing belt tensioner.
Replaced 4 shocks, brakes, discs, installed extra leaf spring in back to balance bed (raised 2").
Replaced turn signal/hazard assembly.
General comments?
I love my truck! A lot of people are down on Fords, but mine has NEVER left me stranded! Even with a dead starter, I was able to get it started and drive home. Repairs are fairly easy and parts are readily available and affordable.
Even at 11 years old, the AC is cold. Paint is nice if I keep it waxed, and keep the chrome wheels clean. Seats are comfy and still in great shape! Can even chirp the tires!
I still get 16-17 on the road, but around 15 in town. Has plenty of power to put a half pallet of shingles in the back!
