    Nope 2wd. Dad drove all around the country in that truck as a Electrical Foreman for a giant construction company so he didn’t want the extra shit that would break

    Jesus! AM/FM at least? I saw a 1994 F150 that came from the factory with an AM radio! It was a 4x4, and it had cruise and tilt, but no A/C!

    Those trucks got a top crash-test rating in their time!

    And since your dad's is a '94, that means the truck has an airbag!

    I'd put a 3.42 posi in it though...

    Or perhaps 3.55 gears. With a 5-speed stick you don't need 3.73 or above...

    Eh my pops used to roll the drivers window down, throw his elbow out and hang onto his snuff spitcan and just relax. It’s weird on the habits you pick up, cause I find myself doing exactly what he did minus the tasty snuff (I gave up dipping many years ago)

    I've never chewed tobacco or smoked a single cigarette. I smoked weed once and I have been known to enjoy a cigar with friends from time to time...
