I feel sorry for you when you have to change spark plugs....or when you have a cylinder missing and have to find out which coil pack to change....other than that, those are some great trucks.

nice! I was considering a F-150 but went Ranger for gas reasons since I will be driving back and forth from school (a 2 hour trip, depending on traffic) quite often to work on the 64. My only regret about going with a smaller truck is that from looking at numbers, the Ranger can tow the 64 but I don't know if I am brave enough to try it. Maybe if I get a trailer with brakes.

yeah, I'll use it mostly to work and back and that's a 5 minute trip
It's actually less expensive with gas then the car cuz I can use cheap gas in it

plugs don't look to be too hard, will probably have to pull the fuel rails off for them, but definitely not room to sit in this engine bay!

Your going to have a hard time finding a full size truck with the larger engine and that mileage for that price.
I got it for $1800 under book even considering in the mileage. and got $1250 for my 93 explorer with a fried AC compressor, rust all over, and a dying transmission.

You may think it's easy..just wait till you have to do it. I hope you have a really long extension for your socket. I'll leave it at that.
