1991 Ford F150 2WD Regular Cab XL

Restored F150.
Trucks are cool. We are proud to present this 1991 Ford F150 XL. Representing America's best-selling pickup, the F-150 has become something of legend thanks to its adaptability, dependability and dynamic styling. Through decades of production the F series pickups always offered a truck for every type of lifestyle. This regular cab long bed looks handsome in its red paint sitting high on chrome wheels with all terrain tires.
Under the hood is a fuel injected 4.9 Liter inline 6 the famous A300ci engine, factory rated at 145 horsepower and a hefty 265 lb ft of torque is one of the greatest engines ever. Ford used them for 31 years in not only farm pickups, but also airline tugs, tractors, irrigation pumps, snow plows, wood chippers and even those big brown awkward UPS trucks that delivered you your car parts. At 165,000 miles this engine is in mid-life. It almost cannot be killed, and thats why you should know about it.

The beneficiary of acute restoration, this awesome truck mixes timeless aesthetics and a proven A300 powerplant.

The 8th generation of F-150's, which was produced between 1988 - 1991, merged the basic toughness, simplicity, and reliability that had come to define Ford pick-ups to that point with the modern features and drivetrains that were rugged and reliable. This classic square corner F150 was the last year before Ford soften the edges and rounded the corners starting with the 1992 model year trucks a trend that has only recently been reversed.
