My credo
In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
Nice truck.

The features seem legit. I'd want to know if the 4wd had ever been used. Hate to have all the seals and hoses tear apart by turning them on for the first time.

I'd love to have a first year FX4. That price burns my eyes, but everything is expensive now and it might go quickly for all I know anymore.

To be fair it is a prototype, you don't find those just anywhere... :icon_surprised:

A full production year prototype. He could have used the term rare and asked for more money.

Personally, I like the listing, but I might be biased? Yeah, I suppose I could have worded things better.

The 4WD was used during the winters, but the truck was never really off-roaded. It belonged to my brother who bought it brand new. He drove it like an old lady but he did use it for going back and forth to work.

Doing things wrong, until I get it right.
"Prototype" may be strong verbage, maybe "precursor" is a better fit.
