Question Need Some Fatherly Advice Please

Hello! I’m a Mom of four who just inherited this 1995 Purple Ford Truck.

While we love it, it is not practical for our family of six.

I have no idea what a reasonable asking price is for this truck.

I am NOT trying to sell it on this forum. I would simply like some opinions from people who know about these trucks.

Can I post more pictures and details of this truck here and list all I know about it that needs repairing and then get some feedback?

If so, can you direct me to the best place to post this information in this forum?

Thanks so much of your help!

Also, we were told there were not many made with this package. Have any of you ever seen one like this before?

Yes...go to the top of the page and click on forums, then scroll down to older and classic trucks and the very first one will be 87-96. ....exactly where you should post...Be sure to include a general location of where you're at...to get a more accurate estimate.

You can also go to KellyBook.com and get a general idea of the average base prices.

EDIT: just put a camper shell on it and put the kids in there!!!! Awwww

..peace and quiet...LOL!
