For Sale: 1996 Ford F150 in Concord, North Carolina

This 1996 Ford F-150 has a nice color combo, fuel-injected power, all the right comforts, and a ton of ability from ready-to-work 4x4. So to get it all for a value price makes it a terrific deal.

This truck strikes the right balance of classic looks while still providing the true usability you want in a pickup. This generation F-Series gave us the confidently crisp lines we love on a vintage truck, but the rounded details (like the headlights and wraparound bumpers) give this some more modern sleekness. The factory-correct burgundy paint looks nice, and there has even been an investment to professionally refinish areas that get the most exposure. The silver lower section is a very complete look with the wheel arches and bumpers coordinating with the paint for a thoughtful appearance. While all this makes a nice first impression, a truck like this is also meant to earn its keep. You have the taller 4x4 stance, rubber mat protecting the bed, and a proper trailer hitch receiver all there to make sure this one is ready for whatever you're up to every day.

Inside is more style and substance. The factory-correct red look nice against the burgundy exterior. It's quite comfortable for the driver with a high-back headrest integrated into the seat, a full trim door panel with armrest, and a grippy air bag steering wheel. Plus, the stick shift just seems to be where your right hand naturally wants to rest. As you look across the clean dash, you're also going to spot the features you really want, including an upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo with aux input and recently serviced air conditioning blowing cold with modern R134a.

Under the hood is a quite stock engine bay with a 4.9-liter motor. This kind of displacement is basically as large as the V8s, but in a smooth inline formation. You even have modern fuel-injection. It's a well-maintained package that starts readily, idles smoothly, and runs strong. This is nicely paired with the go-anywhere ability of the 4x4 system with two-speed transfer case. And no matter if you're running up a hill or running around town, you'll appreciate the full control you get from the five-speed manual transmission w/highway-friendly overdrive. This anytime usability is heightened further by good driving features like power steering and power brakes with discs up front.

The sale comes complete with the original bill of sale, warranty card, and owner's manual. It has spent most of its life with its first owner, and that results in a well-respected pickup that's also ready to get the job done. That makes for a great package for work, play, and everything else you do every day. Call now!
