well my 90 f150 finally went down, i broke the frame in 2 places, and the tranny started losing 3rd and 5th gear, times are a bit tight right now so i had to get rid of it, i no this sounds bad, but i got a good deal with it i traded my 90 4x2 for a 88 dodge 4x4. going to drive it till things are better. but on a brighter note i got a 86 f150 4x4 302 automatic. it was gave to me for some money a guy owed me, but i've got to do ALOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT of work to it. so i guess its my project truck for now lol

I know how you feel going to the "dark side" but I did the same for the wife. But Dave I still have the Ford!

i still have a 86 f150 4x4 302 automatic, 77 jeep j10 truck 360 automatic 4x4, 88 dodge 4x4 318 fuel injected and my 47 chevy coupe 454 automatic, which is probably another 2 years and 10,000 dollars from being done LMAO, being low on cash can sure mess ya up when it comes to cars and trucks ;/

One Ford, two Mopars and a Chevy. Things are looking bad for you Richard. You are farther to the dark side than I remembered. LMAO

Rod, I guess I am gonna have to find Fraizers Bottom and blow some smoke up your mountain to get your head cleared up. I think that Chevy sittin in the driveway has you fogged up or something. Gonna have to have another meet and eat to get you surrounded by Fords for a while to get you thinking straight again. I almost drove to Charleston to eat supper at Hooters today. Should I stop at your house and pick you up? I bet that trip would get you thinking straight again after the drive into town and back in my diesel. LMAO Probably scare that Z 21 truck to the back 40 when I pull in the front driveway.

i've gotta go to PA and pick this truck up, probably going to wait till the weekend to go get it. its in dillsburg PA

I just happen to know where both are found at. All it takes is dollars and time. I have about 2500 in my dump and 350 in my stacks. Plus about two days to install the bed and one day to install the stacks. But you can get some dollars back if you sell the stock bed. Then we can spend about 3500 and install a snow plow in another day.

Is that truck an auto or a manual?

Glad you came back to the light side, diesel makes it a bright light even though the rest of the pack can not see it for the black smoke.

its an automatic has a fresh rebuilt trans in it. 315x70x16 on aluminum Alcoa wheels,
not a bad looking ol truck.

Keep a close eye on the lug nuts. Seen to many of them fall off cause the lug nuts do not stay tight.
