I just bought a 96 F-150 4X4 with the 5.0 V8 for 3 grand has 32X12.50X15 tires on it. I missed a 1990 F-250 4x4 7.3 diesel for $3,000 that sold in one day on craigslist.

here's mine

Well, that 97 Dodge Ram 1500 served me well. It was stinky, leaked gas, burned oil, etc but always started. Replaced belt, oil pump, tires and regular maintenance. It was a good truck. However, the time came to upgrade! And here she is, a 2001 Chevrolet 2500HD with about 160,000 miles on it! 4x4 and all the goodies inside too!

Few minor quirks here and there but it was also one of those great deals that comes along! Need to run down a fuel sender problem and an abs sensor issue. Frankly I don't care whether it has abs or not but would be nice I suppose. Finally a 3/4 ton!

Wow, for an '01 that is a really good-looking truck. I have an '01 myself. It's a Nissan Frontier crew cab 4x4 that I've owned for over 10 years. It's been a good truck and every time I think about selling it I talk myself out of the idea.
