I sold my beloved 1992 Flareside today,I owed it for close to 16 years. The memories of the stuff that happened in it are all good. One of the most dependable vehicles I have ever owned. Thanks FORD!!

 

Why did you sell? I sold my '86 that I bought new after 15 years of service. Two years later I bought another '86 because I didn't know how much I liked the truck until I didn't have it any more.

 

why do we love these trucks so much?

 

The first time I saw a Flareside was on a commercial and I loved the way it looked. By the way I work at GM,didn't like the looks of their trucks that year,plus I got it for less$$ than a GM w/my discount.

 

i worked on the photoshoots for the ford truck brochures in 1992, 1993, and 1994.

we shot a lot up in lone pine, california where they filmed westerns with john wayne. in fact we stayed in the motel he stayed at. nothing like a dawn photoshoot in the mountains of california in the spring.

first time i saw the new, rounder front end and restyled dash. i knew i would own one someday.

 

At the last minute I have decided NOT to sell my ford!!!!!!!!!I have decided to park my Tahoe (boat puller)and drive it on weekends and the Flareside is going to be my everyday truck again.

 

happy days are here again!

now you do not have to change your forum name.

good for you.

 

Well thats a good thing to here im sure if you sold it you would probably regret it sooner or later

 

I just about sold my 93 because I wanted a 4x4. Had it out on the side of the road got a call in less than 30 min. The guy said he would let me kno the next day after he talked to his wife. He never called back but im glad he didnt becuase I probly would have sold it. Then next day i decided that i would convert ti to 4x4 instead of buying a new. Only had it for a little over a year so far but it is my first truck and I love it.

 

Boys, next time you go out to your truck, give her a little pat on the tailgate. It helps to let them know how much we appreciate these trucks.
