1989 F-150, big block V8. Gets a whopping 12 mile to the gallon. Bought it three weeks ago for $1000. I love big old American made trucks!

Hey that will get you back and forth won't it. I'm still driving my old Chevy and it's going strong.
Hey Mark, I love it. Motor runs good, nothing leaking. Only has 161,000 miles on it. Motor has been well maintained. I paid cash, so how much gas do I have to use to make up the differrence between a new truck and this one lol! Besides, old trucks are what I can afford. I can tell you this. Sunday I went fly fishing at a friends lake. The value of the fly fishing equipment that was being hauled was worth more than what I paid for the truck lol!
Enjoy it Tim.
Just put some money in my 95' Chivy and she runs goooood! I love that old truck ride.

What? Your not buying a foreign model that you can't afford? Pres. O is gonna be disappointed in you! I, on the other hand think that is a great truck! It doesn't lean to the passenger side because of a payment book in the glove compartment!
Older means less electronic/computer stuff to break. Nice buy.
I love the "if it works, fix it" mentality of today.

To be honest I cook for a living, I know my family had a couple Ford trucks in the 70's that had both.....So throw me a bone...what does it have in it Embrey???that was my ????LOL
I drive a 97 Chevy and ain't about to get rid of it....as long as I can get parts, motors, transmissions and what have you, I'm keeping it....besides, the insides of the newer models just don't have the same smell as mine :)
