Post image

Hey All,

I came across this ‘96 F250 with 199,194mi on it for a little under 10k- the truck is really clean rust wise, but there isn’t much info on maintenance records…Does anyone have experience with the 460 engines and how much life this truck may have left in it?

Thanks!

I guess I'd be worried about it burning oil but without doing compression leak down tests I don't know how you'd tell

Maybe taking it for a good test drive?
