Vehicle Description
The F250 was the last year of the sixth generation F series truck .
The success of the F series had carried on more than three decades
at this point and still lives on today. The 1979 model changed the
circle headlights to square headlights but the rest of the truck
was the same. The 1978 and 1979 models had a single piece insert
for the grille unlike all other prior models . In 1979 the F series
truck became the bestselling vehicle in the world, this was also
the first time that ford motor company introduced the slogan "
built ford tough." The F-250 came in Custom, Ranger, Ranger XLT and
Ranger Lariat trim choices, with Custom being the base level and
Lariat the most luxurious. The crew cab versions were only
available in Custom and Ranger XLT trim. The Custom came with vinyl
seat upholstery, the Ranger offered knit vinyl, floor covering and
