Supercabs and crew cabs were unpopular back then. A 2wd Supercab would sell like a turd sandwich here.

I’ve got a ‘79 Supercab 2wd… The only issue I have with it is that it’s a 2wd, so I’m converting it to 4wd.

2wd with good tires will do 85-90% of what most truck owners do.

My 97 is a extcab 2wd 3/4ton. Ive never really missed the 4wd except for maybe 2 or 3 times in the 10 yrs ive owned it.

Yeah, but the 10-15% of the time we need 4wd is worth much as the other 85-90% of time without it is worth

It doesn't matter what a 2wd can do if no one will buy it. We didn't even stock 2wd trucks, the few we sold we either swapped in or ordered.

There was something about the 78 and 79 trucks and Broncos, it seemed like people kept them forever.

Because they’re the best looking truck ever made.

Are we a bit biased?

Let me find the grumpiest, most opinionated person on the site and see if he agrees.


Hey @rusty ol ranger, is the 73-79 f-series the best looking truck Ford ever made?

It's better to have 4wd and not need it than to not have 4wd and not need it...
