I had a 95 F150 and it was very good to me.. Those trucks are tanks.. In more ways than one. Never had a diesel tho, but it's the way to go with a truck. Check out FTE at: www.ford-trucks.com/forums/forum28/. I've been on there for a couple years. They'd LOVE to see pics of this monster! I wanted to do a 4x4 conversion for mine, but it was gonna get pricey.
And.... "But can it crush cars?" My CAMARO is surprisingly fuel efficient!

Diesels are actually better for mileage on a lifted vehicle then a gas engine. My 95 with a 5.0 was getting at BEST 12 city and 20hw. But normally ran 12 city and 19 HW. 200hp v8 in a 4600lb truck it's not bad. I wasn't much of a ford guy but that truck was really reliable. It's a 4600lb hunk of solid steel, full frame and god forbid someone hit me. it would do more damage to their vehie than it would my truck. Ive backed into boulders before when I was doing some mild off roading and you couldn't even tell where it hit. Just tapped it but still. You can't "tap" these newer cars. They'll dent just looking at em.

You were much better off in the camaro for the snow! That thing won't move an inch in a dustying. You have got to be putting 1 lb per square inch of tire so you will float on snow, rain, or dust on the road for that matter.
That being said it is supper bad ***! I would love to have that as a play truck for sure!
P.S. THIS TRUCK DOESN'T HAVE GAS MILLAGE. IT IS FUEL, wile it isn't great if it is geared correctly this truck should still get 15-25 depending on the full set up.
