1982 Ford F250 EXPLORER review from North America
"Sweet"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not a thing I was given the truck a couple months ago from my grandfather. Who can no longer drive.
General comments?
I love cruising around in this old tuff truck. The truck is all original down to the spark plug wires. She has 38800 miles on her and runs great. I like driving this beast more than my BMW. I think she needs a tune-up, but still starts and runs great everytime out. She does drink a lot of gas though, a tune-up should help that. If you can find one that has not been totally beat down, then buy it. This thing feels like it could run through a brick wall and keep going.
