getting a new truck

Hey everybody...unfortunately my bronco got into an accident a couple weeks ago and now it is dead. I'm thinking about getting a f-150. I am a college kid and I know I should be getting a pretty nice check but I'm debating whether to get the 92-96 f150 or the 97- f150. My bronco had a 351w which i loved and the c-6 which was ok ( i would have prefered the E40d). Is the newer model f150 worth the extra cash for the smaller engine but damn good looks or the older model which has the bigger engine and less expensive so i can put the rest of my money into other stuff. If I could get some of the pro's and con's please. Thank you all in advance.

There is nothing wrong with a older F150. Clean ones are out there. I personally still like their looks. If you read the posts here, then you know what to look for in a F150 with the modular V8. And a V6 is faster than a 4.6. So I'd say look around and find the one that tickles you right.
