Normal 0 false false false EN-US JA X-NONE 1996 Ford F150 XLT 4X4 Regular Cab V8 – Light Saddle with Mocha Cloth interior. NO RESERVE! Nice solid running 2-owner pick up truck. Only 66,500 documented and confirmed miles on this one. I bought this truck from my father in law in 2009 with 56,800 miles on it. He was the original owner and bought it new in 1995 for use at their camp in Maine, thus the low miles. I have all of the original manuals, tools, window sticker, and sales brochure. This would be a great work truck or hunting truck that will run for years to come. Mechanical: The V8 engine only has 66,500 miles and runs strong with no leaks, drips, noises, etc. The 4x4 works perfect and is operated via a touch button on the dash. My father in law was very meticulous with the maintenance on his trucks, as he typically buys a truck new and keeps it for about 10-15 years before buying a replacement. In my ownership, the truck has been super reliable and I have only had to balance and rotate the tires (1.19.12), replace the brakes; pads, rotors, reseal hubs, brake fluid flush (1.25.12), routine oil changes every 5,000 miles (so only twice in my ownership), and replaced the battery once. Tires have about 85% tread left and are in good shape with no rot. Wheels are steel and in good shape. All lights, power windows, power mirrors, power door locks, and radio function, as they should. The AC blows cold and the heat works great. The truck starts up every time and has never quit on me. Exterior: The truck is 20 years old and from Maine, so it is pretty rusty per Southern standards. However, it is mainly surface rust on the frame that I can see, but there are several spots on the body that is pretty rusted. The paint is in pretty good shape for its age. There is a fiberglass camper shell that is in good shape; the back tailgate struts were just replaced. The interior of the bed is in good shape and has minimal wear due to the protective plastic liner. There is a crack in the windshield that was present when I got the truck. Please keep in mind this is a used 20-year-old truck that spent 15 years of its life in Maine.Interior: The interior is in great shape. The dash is free of cracks and all gauges, buttons function, as they should. The seats are cloth split bench and do not have any rips or tears, funny odors as we are non-smokers, and all padding is still in great shape. Even the optional lumbar support is in good working condition. There is a center armrest storage cubby that fold up to allow an additional passenger seat. There was a minor fender bender a few years back when a woman bumped into the rear bumper. This truck is a beast and sustained minimal damage to the rear bumper, but she insisted on filing a report and having the bumper repaired at her insurance's cost, so essentially the truck has a new rear bumper. Other than that incident, the truck has never been in an accident that I am aware of. Please ask any and all questions prior to bidding. This is sold AS-IS, not warranty, no refunds. I have described the vehicle as accurately as possible, but keep in mind this is a 20 year old truck from Maine, so do not expect a brand new, off the lot, rust-free vehicle.
