Those 2 F250s you showed look like our 99-07 body style but we have V8 Powerstrokes(made by International/Navastar) in ours.

The Chevy you showed we called S-10 They were a midsize truck with NO DIESEL OPTION. They also had NO 4 DOORS here in the states

And the BONANZA we call a Blazer(2 door) and a Suburban(4 door). The only diesel option in those was a 6.2 V8

I have seen a 4 door s10 here in iowa. Idk if it's a conversion or not. But they are ugly as sin.

yes you are right, the d20 is totally different from the s10 that there exists in his country!

the D20 were to carry over 1,000 kg load capacity. being in the same category F1000!

I think the grill on the Brazilian S-10 looks like a US built Ford Ranger grill. Best part of the truck!

here had several factories that make trasformações in cabins because it has few opçãos manufactures cabin!

The f1000 has SuperCab manufactures the equal of his country, few of these units were manufactured here, today is hard to find one! almost all are short cab and short dumper !










f250 did not come with the option manufactures estentida cabin, some companies make the transformation:

This is done




and some others made:

really is pretty ugly!

yes the f250 are equal to the outside and to the inside, what changes is the engine!

what did you think of the performance of the video f250?

Bonanza has the same length of a Ford Bronco! but the cabin is fully closed!

is the Veraneio version is of the bonanza with four doors!

the engine is Perkins q20b or maxion plus !

I admired the f150 f250 97 90` saw that she is very famous in all movies whenever she appears, I think the v8 powerstrock pretty cool, never seen a diesel v8 personally, the one who is here is the scania v8 but it's giant!

powerstrock the v8 is pretty resistant? want to know about the durability of it? usually give problems?

what do you prefer the f150 and f250 diesel or gasoline engine?

Out there has enough admirers of f150 and f250?
* have enough units still in use or no longer see them more?

I saw many f150 in perfect condition thrown into the scrap, here would pay a fortune for them, and would reform would walk again.

they are worth very little?

or the new ones are very cheap to buy?


Who here has a f1000 (f150) does not sell, if you find one in perfect condition the price is quite high, many buy another younger but keep the f1000 in the garage for use rde Occasionally, the staff here have a lot of admiration and affection for them despite having more than 14 to 20 years of use are in good condition!

there are people who sell and then repent and buy another like it back!

* a big hug to everyone, I hope you understand my writing and never stop responding!
