My daily driver is a '95 f-250 supercab. it's got a 7.3 psd with 363,000 miles on it and is starting to show its age. the engine leaks in all the usual places and compression has been dropping. the ZF has become more and more difficult going into 2nd and reverse. most importantly it's two wheel drive and is front heavy enough that i've gotten stuck on nearly level ground before. The good: it can pull anything, its a supercab, it has cup holders, it gets 22 mpg.
The truck i am looking at is a '92 f350 regular cab. it's got a 351 with 109,000 miles (six digit digital odometer so it really is 109,000) with a leaking rear main. the ZF shifts super smooth into and out of every gear. the 4x4 works very well. the rear end is limited slip. It's got a vinyl bench and gets between 11-13 mpg.
i should be able to come out about $1,000 ahead buying the 4x4 and selling my truck. should i do it?
The red one is the one i'm looking at, the white one is what i've been driving.
