Yep. Its 2wd. Thats the key for minimal rust here. Has the normal rust on the rear fenders but other than that its solid. Already have the 302 sold out of it! Going to part out the stuff i dont need to pay for itself.

Bet you can get big bucks for the high tech twin tire wear beam front suspension!
I always thought those were decent trucks, except the front suspension.

The key with twin I- beam is regular aligment checks and tire rotations. But still they are hard on the tread edges. The 87-91 are my favorite f-series. I love the simple and reliable fuel injection. Im not a carburetor fan for work vehicles. I like to turn the key and go!

Funny thing about that is i do not like any seafood! Was born in Baltimore and lived there till i was 7. So no, i did not go there. We went to alot of smaller joints that the kids would eat. My boy will eat with the cows but refuses to eat seafood too!

And I love seafood, think I could eat it 7 days a week, esp. home made crab cakes, steamed shrimp, and fried scallops.

My dad and older brother are that way. They both love Chesapeake Blue Crab .

We have Duke's mayo in this part of the country. I've been eating it as long as I can remember (thats a long time).
Can't imagine what something like that would taste like

Got to love Dukes, mama will not let any other brand in the house here lol!

They preach it out here all the time

Ya it is best practice, this was clear water and I could see the painted lines. I won’t go through if is deep and muddy, never know if the road is washed out, or what’s hiding underneath! Year ago there was a semi going through 5’ of flood water down town an got stuck, when the water receded you could then see the small import car that was stalled out and completely submerged, nobody was hurt
