1996 Ford F-250 HD XLT 2dr Extended Cab SB (7.5L 8cyl naturally aspired 5M)

The 7.3 turbo diesel is excellent tied to the 5 speed manual transmission. The drivers seat is comfortable after 200k while the interior is like new for its age. awesome heat in the winter and cold factory ac in the summer. Owned for 3 years after purchase replaced turbocharger, glow plugs and o rings on fuel injectors, waterpump and fuel lift pump. Would recommend removing ebpv on turbo as it sticks in the winter which can cause your turbo bearings to go out as did on my truck.

I brought this truck 2 years old with 30,000 miles on it. Since then I've put 170,000 miles on it without changing anything other than the battery. I haven't even been real good about the maintenance. Tranny fluid changed twice and the oil (only synthetic) every 5-8,000 miles, but I did have dual oil filters on it til the hose burst.
An excellent truck

I am the original owner. This truck has lived up to its maker's name ... Ford Tough. The brake problems that plagued earlier models is gone. This truck has no rattles. It pulls and pulls. I have the original batteries and they are still good. I have carried 4000 lbs in the back with no problem. I highly recommend this as a work truck for anyone as it has been reliable. The only repairs I have done are a starter relay, brakes, shocks, and glow plug relay. Thats it!

I own a 95 F -250 (XL) this truck was a originally a Florida County vehicle I purchased in 03 with just over 66k on the clock and in the 14+ years I've owned her I've only replaced the water pump and radiator I've only used synthetic oil the whole time I've owned it,can't ever see myself parting with her,never left me on the side of the road and always fired right up no matter how long she sat,she does have issues, don't get me wrong but mostly the interior door mechanisms and such
