i bought my 1990 f150 lariat with the 5.8 (351) windser it is the best truck i ever drove has lots of power fully loaded. Everything is stock fixing to put a throtle body spacer and cold air intake on in. Truck is quick at getting to speed and great for pulling boats and campers and you cant eveb tell its back there most the time smooth riding and will roast them for about a block all stock if anyone wants a great truck i would get one of these there is only 12% of these trucks made with the 351 in it best old truck you will ever drive.

I inherited this truck from my grandfather after he passed away. I got it in 2005 and it had less than 50k miles on it. It just now hit 93k. It had been babied until I got it and since has been used as a daily driver. I would say that this is a highly reliable truck. Mine has the 4.9L I-6 in it, which is the better motor. Although it is not easy on the gas, better than the V8 though, and alittle underpowered for serious hulling and highway use, it is a great everyday, in-town driver. Mine is in great shape, and only recently starting to show rust. I still have people checking my truck out and commenting on how nice it is. They don't build them like that anymore! A+ Ford!

My dad bought this car back in 1995 from my grandfather's work. He paid I think 3000 for it with 175,000 miles. It's now 2009 has 300,800 miles and it still runs strong. The 4x4 still works great the paint has no clear coat fading or splitting. Nothing has been changed besides starter battery and maintenance otherwise it's all original. It's not the prettiest but definitely not the ugliest. It's well worth your money to buy one and it will last forever.

This truck as been fun to drive. The only problem I've had is having to replace a brake line. It uses a lot of gas but it well worth it just to drive it.

I've had this truck for the last 11 years and it's been a reliable, tough truck. I have had very few problems and they have been minor. The motor, tranny, and clutch have never needed any work done to them. The chassis is extremely strong and the truck rides well. Never needed front wheel alignment. Interior still looks good and the exterior paint still shines. I admit I have taken very good care of it. Built like a tank.

Great truck. If it layed down today it
would not owe me a dime. I have owned
it for 11 years. It had 16k miles when
I bought it, now has 117k, only paid
$12.5k loaded out. Best vehicle
purchase I ever made. Wow, can it pull
a boat. Used to pull my 3500 lb ski
boat through the Ozarks and pass cars
going uphill with the a/c blasting-temp
gauge stayed perfect. No rust problems-
spent most of it's life up north. When
this one gives up I would like to buy
another just like it-only a different
color-after 11 years I am really tired
of the 2 tone brown. I call it the
milky way on wheels.

I bought my truck in sept of last year.
I love this truck she had 120,000 miles
on her when i bought her and i've put
about 30,000 on her. She can climb
mountains and she can offroad. I have
had so much fun in her. She is also one
of the most reliable trucks that I have
ever owned. I have only had to replace
the alternator in the time that I have
had her. She starts every morning and
takes me to work. I love my ford!!!

A great truck built like a tank but
suprisingly quick. Mine has the 5.0
(302) and it is a great motor, it gets
this beefy truck moving pretty
quickly, this engine is a torque
monster with good horsepower. My truck
has a great highway ride with plenty
of passing power. It can also do
smokey burnouts if the need arises.

This is the one of the best trucks ever
made. It has a lot of towing
capabilities, it is 2 wheel drive but
it is still pretty good offroad, it has
an extreme amount of torque and pretty
high horsepower too, it has the 5.0
(302) and it will keep up with Hemi
dodges and most other trucks too. The
truck has a smooth ride, especially for
the huge suspension that it has. It is
also built like a tank. This truck is
good in almost every aspect.
