Used 1999 Ford F-250 Super Duty Extended Cab Consumer Reviews
I can't believe its a FORD!!!!!
i bought this truck a month ago. The original owner purchased it new in 1999. It have 144,000 miles and runs perfect. Fuel economy it great i have a 2006 honda ridgeline and the 7.3 powerstroke gets better fuel mileage. Mixed city and highway i get 18-20.
'99 F-250 X-Cab XLT 4x4 long box w/ V10
This is one GREAT truck - sharp looking and tons of power. That V10 just screams - NO problems hauling a loaded stock trailer up hills doing 60. Mileage is better than expected at ~16 mpg. Interior is nicer than my living room - and cleaner! Built solid and drives solid.

F250 Larait - All around great truck
I bought this truck with 35,000 miles on it and I have never had a any trouble with it whatsoever. This truck is very stable on the highway. I use this truck both as an off road and highway vehicle. I have a farm which makes it necessary to get this truck in a soft muddy barn yard as well as the fields using 4WD. I also have pulled heavy fertilizer spreaders up steep grades with this truck on the highway. The Triton engine performed far better than I expected. The fuel compsupmtion is a little high at about 12 to 15 mpg, but, with this big engine that's to be expected. I would buy this truck again in a heartbeat!
Make Sure You Need A Real Truck!
Very capable truck for hauling and towing. Ride is rough due to leaf spring suspension and steering feel is numb. If you don't need 3/4-1 ton capacity, you will be happier with the ride, performance and comfort of an 150. Overall gas mileage has been excellent for a truck this size with a range of 11-14 mpg. I recommend not getting the 4.3 gears unless you tow heavy. 3.73s are a better all around choice. (I've got the 4.3s.) I'd steer clear of the manual trans as they are noisey and slow shifting. (Yes, I've got one.)
King of the road
I bought used at 106K miles but truck was very clean. Now have 118K and no problems so far. Very nice to drive but be careful when you sip your coffee! Very solid ride but seats are excellent for comfort. Used as a daily commuter and feel safe in traffic. The transmission bangs into each gear with nice positive feel. The 5.4 engine has a rap when starting cold and startled me first few times but was told by other owners theirs make same noise. Whatever it is, the performance is not affected and it does disappear within minutes. Overall, I love the truck and would recommend without question.
