  It just wont stop - 1993 Ford F-250
  By Richard - October 20 - 2:00 am

  I love the power and braking, added try Y headers and it became a whole new engine and better mpg. I get 12 on the fwy and 9 in town. This is a daily driver that tows occasionally (10 mpg towing) and off roads on the weekend. Capt. chairs are good but armrests are to high for me (I am a tall guy). Got the manual shifted transfer case so the solenoid wouldnt fail me in the mud (experience from the dealership I worked at). Installed manual locking 4x4 hubs. I have had this truck airborne off roading before and broke steering box but was still able to drive home and then to work to put new one in. I have never messed with the A/C system and it still blows cold, not so great in southern California traffic.

  This is a great old truck! - 1993 Ford F-250
  By articfox687 - March 12 - 2:29 pm

  I bought this truck after a fleet retired it at 115k. It pulled a 14,000lb trailer every day before I bought it. I did have to rebuild the trans at 190k. But nothing else. I have the peppy 5.8L, and at 255k it will still pull a full size van on the trailer at 65mph and not slow on the hills. MPG 14-16, no matter what. The body is rusty now but from the drivers seat the truck still feels new. I love my big white beast. Way better truck that my 02 c2500 Chevy. I only wish Ford still made this exact truck!

  The truck is great. The mileage is lousy but it makes up for it in the power and torque.

  Ok Truck - 1993 Ford F-250
  By reallyachevyguy - May 28 - 2:00 am

  I bought it used with 58k mi on it.Its been a pretty good on so far.But it does get LOUSY gas mileage. Between 7-10mpg empty. And the power I expected from the 460 wasnt quite there. But it does ok..think an aftermarket ignition is a must soon to help it out. Put a K&N filter and 3" single flowmaster on it and got some improvement. Definately get the front add-a-leaf...will save tires and improve the handling.

  Fixed Or Repaired Daily - 1993 Ford F-250
  By ForBadger - September 12 - 2:00 am

  This truck has a real quality problem and is poorly engineered as a work vehicle. From day one, the front brakes would stick. Ford could never fix them. From 40K miles, leaks sprang up everywhere valve guides, main seal, A/C compressor, rear axle, pinion seal, clutch slave cylinder, master cylinder, and a rusted gas tank. The engine bay is cluttered and hard to work on. The fuel filter is in a bad spot for replacement. Very poor torque from a standing start. Many other problems that seem to be the result of Ford trying new ideas and materials that didnt work out.

  F250 HD Diesel - 1993 Ford F-250
  By Amsoilguy - May 20 - 2:00 am

  Except for the underspung front end, which is corrected on mine, this truck has been great. It starts in the dead of cold, and gets between 16 and 19 around town. The body has held up well, for a 10 year old vehicle. They typical spots, over the wheel well and the extended cab are just coming through now. The interior still looks like the day I bought it. Gonna buy another. Best vehicle I ever had.
