For Sale: 1996 Ford F250 in Mesa, Arizona

Premium, vintage, powerful, and exceptionally capable - this 1997 Ford F-250 XLT Super Duty is the long-bed turbodiesel is the sharp-looking classic truck that still knows how to do it all.


This is a darn good-looking truck. It starts with how straight and clean the sheet metal is on this long bed pickup. That's especially highlighted by the lines of the attractive two-tone. Calypso Green is one of those great colors that represents its era, and it has a nice metallic tone to radiate in the sunlight today. The crisp and clean appearance does a great job of showing off the extended full-length body creases of this long bed pickup. And the Platinum lower section is a nice reminder that you have a premium XLT trim. More of that premium style is in the shining chrome bumpers, bright grille, and full-length trim. Of course, there's also added function in some of this form. The bright wheels are strong Alcoa units, and the bed looks good thanks to liner paint protecting it.


Inside is long-haul comfort. The plush cloth offers seating for three across, or fold down the center armrest cup holder for individual bucket-like comfort. The driver's seat power adjusts for the ideal comfort position for journeys near or far. This is an extended cab model which gives you a useful back seat to carry more people and/or a secure place for cargo. A loaded modern classic like this means you never go wanting for features. It includes power windows, power locks, power mirrors, an AM/FM/cassette stereo, sliding rear window, tilt steering column, and cold air conditioning. It's all highly stock and well preserved. In fact, the only addition you may spot is the trailer brake control for the hitch under the bumper.


The massive 7.3-liter PowerStroke turbodiesel already has a reputation for being powerful and practically bombproof. So while it is unknown if the odometer reflects the full actual mileage, the ultra-tidy presentation tells us this has the good care for the kind of diesel trucks that could still take you to the moon and back...while towing your favorite toys. And while this one doesn't show any signs of a big life on the road, you just know this one is ready. It has a four-speed automatic transmission with highway-friendly overdrive, cruise control, and there are even dual fuel tanks to let you go farther. There's also power steering and power brakes featuring front discs and ABS. So this is good for all-around driving.


This is an appealing and capable long bed turbodiesel with all the features you want. So at a price like this, you don't want to let it slip away. Call today!!!
