I loved my 95 F150. It was 2wd with a 5.8L, standard cab and an 8 foot bed. I had to the the typical repairs like alternator, starter, battery and a set of cheap tires. The brake line did rust out once but it was a cheap fix. It kept my Mustang out of the elements and saved it tons of miles. Not to mention the utility of a truck. I could drive it to the parts of town, where most would not tread and no one ever bothered with it to my knowledge.
Anyway, my wife was going to get a new car and the truck had accumulated around 183xxx miles. Fifty thousand of which I put on it. I figured it would be smarter to trade it in and keep her car because lets face it an 04 Honda Civic at 180xxx mile will normally outlive a 95 F150 with 180xxx miles by a long shot.
So now I'm a Honda driver. This is my first car with four doors and a measurable amount of fuel economy. It's a transition but hopefully a change for the best. We'll see.
