1999 Ford F250 Super Duty SD Super-cab XLT review from North America
"This is a great work or family truck, that runs better when put under duress"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
At around 70,000 I had to replace the battery. However, if you buy this truck at a Ford dealer I would recommend to buy the extended warranty. With the battery going out, the warranty paid for the free towing and diagnosis of the truck. All I paid for was the battery.
General comments?
This truck does however go through lots of oil. I also recommend paying attention to the routine maintenance that needs to be done. When you over extend the time needed for a tune-up the gas mileage goes down hill.
