Used 1996 Ford F-150 XL for Sale near Parksville, BC

For truck that weighs over 4,000 pounds, the acceleration is phenomenal. I have clocked myself at about 7.0 seconds from 0- 60. The other surprising thing considering its weight is how well it brakes. It has saved me from a handful of accidents because of its stopping power. Towing and load carrying abilities are excellent for its class. I have loaded that thing up, plus towed a trailer and it still accelerates on climbs. The biggest downside to this vehicle is the gas mileage with a max of 14 stock. With a new muffler to replace the old one, I have seen mileage increase a mile and a half to 2 miles per gallon. With my odometer reading at under 60,000, I'm convinced that I will be able to keep the truck that I got from my Granddad for a long time.

the truck is the last year of the inline 6 cylender. it also has the 5 speed manual so it has the best gas milage of all the trucks i have ever driven. she hasnt had an engine rebuild yet and has over 250000 miles on it and is still running strong. she is a sand stone color so its very easy to maintain.

I love everything about it, except how much gas it uses. Hyper Tech max energy programmer is the best money I have ever spent on it. This truck has never left me stranded, and it never will. Put this thing into 4x4 and watch the mud fly! Blue Oval for Life!!!

I love this truck, very very reliable, parts are inexpensive, lots of low end torque. It has an 4.9L I-6 engine, which is basically unstoppable. Great fun to go mudding in also. I purchased it stock and put on the lift and tires, roll bar, grill guard, basically everything in the pic. Hopefully it gets a fresh coat of black paint soon to finish it off. Mpg is a def negative though....

great truck. its been around for a while. its taken everything that i have thrown at it and more. the engine is a hoss. transmission is as well. she's not the prettiest girl at the dance, but she'll take you home and make you scream her name. then when you wake up, she'll have breakfast made, and your oil changed.
