1998 Ford F250 Super Duty review from North America
"Always ready to work hard with no complaints"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The cup holder broke almost instantly. Drinks fall out easily, spilling on the floor.
Gear shift knob fell off. Appears to be cracked on the inside.
General comments?
This vehicle is very reliable. No problems close to 100k miles.
Fuel comsumption for the diesel is minimal. 18 mpg city and 24 mpg highway.
I would like to see more gauges - engine oil temperature, boost pressure, and transmission temperature would be helpful.
The AM-FM cassette sounds shallow, lacks volume and bass. Sounds cheap when compared to Ford cars.
