The '96 had an OBD-II computer, that's the easiest way to tell them apart. Also, the KBB situation doesn't make sense at all- the '96 shouldn't be worth much more than a '95 if you're running them similarly equipped. The OBD-II is a much better diagnostic tool, and like the previous poster mentioned, most state emissions inspections are much easier with a post-'95 vehicle.
Depends on how tough a negotiator the seller is, but I'd expect to take the truck for around $1,8 if he's asking $2,4 and you still want it. It might be worth full asking if the body condition is really that great. If it's pretty beat up he should be ready to take $1,5 for it- as long as it runs you'll be able to sell it again for at least that.
Its got a little rust above the wheel arc and a crack in the dash thats all that was wrong for looks. But the KBB thing has got me confused... 95 F150 300 6 - $1800-$1900
96 F150 300 6 - $1400-$1500.
Now he says its a 96. My dad thought the 7th didgit indicated the year and it was a 5. But the owner put 96 on the windshield today
The 10th digit is the year, it'll be a letter and
T=96
S=95
