2002 Ford F350 Lariat review from North America
"A roomy, cargo-hauling or towing monster with tons of hidden performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Absolutely nothing has gone wrong with this vehicle.
General comments?
A superb vehicle. This is a crew cab, single rear wheel F-350 with the six-and-a-half foot bed. I changed the air filter to a K&N for improved airflow and fuel mileage. I used a Super-chips Micro-tuner to turn horsepower up from the stock 250 to over 300, and not only did the get-up-and-go improve, but fuel mileage also increased over four miles-per-gallon. I now get 21 mpg at a 75 mph with the air conditioning on - and this is a four-wheel-drive truck as well. I do not hot-rod this vehicle or abuse it, and I have not had the first problem with it.
My only complaint, and it is a small one, is that I do not find the Captain's chairs as comfortable as they could be.
