I'm looking at a 1990 F150 XLT Lariet pickup with a straight 8 engine, tire have apx 4,000 miles left on tread, boby is in fair condition, needs new windshield, uses 1 qt oil in between oil changes (4,000 miles), a slow teak in the A/C must have recharged 2 times each summer. Has a rebuild staight 8 engine, he does not know when it was put in the pickup. He has had the truck for apx 4 years. Pickup has apx 115,00 miles on it. A tear in the seat. Red paint, garrage kept so no fading to the color. Automatic trans. The gentlemen is asking $2,750.00. He needs to sell the pickup, do to his parkens disease and is unable to drive it anymore. I know the gentlemen, very honest and just a good guy. What do you'll think a fair price (or good price) would be for a buyer like myself. I'll drive it for while until I get my 65 F100 fixed up, maybe a year or two at the most. I do not want to loose a bunch of money when it comes time to sell the pickup. Thanks Kevin

 

i have never heard of a straight 8 in a truck...get picks if so...

you sure it isnt a 300 straight 6? 4.9 liter?

 

nada pricing says around 2200 in good condition..so maybe offer around 1800 or so if it is in good shape

 

Straight 8's haven't existed in vehicles for a number of years. These trucks came with either a straight 6 or V8.

Is the truck 2wd or 4wd? This would have the biggest impact on value aside from general condition. It sounds nice, but a 4wd will be worth much more.

 

derr i forgot to ask that lol...

 

Just my .02 cents worth. Will need tires very soon, body in fair?? condition, Needs a windshield, using 1 qt of oil per OCI, very unusual for a reman I6 and I am questioning the 115K miles because this engine is capable of 4x the mileage. Odometers on these years are seldom correct as they will roll over at 100K and start again. A slow leak in the a/c could be as minor as an o-ring or could be an evaporator or condensor and either way requires recovering the refrigerant and recharging or more. You did not mention if it is Reg Cab or Supercab.

I say $1500 will kill it. Again, just an opinion based on the trucks I have bought and sold.

 

Sorry guys it is straight 6 and is 2WD

 

its also a regular cab

 

sounds high to me i just got a 94 xlt extra cab f250 4x4 with 215,000 miles for $900 put a $120 starter on it and its good to go

offer $800 they go for $1000 on craigslist all the time
