Vehicle Description
Ultra-clean F250 4x4 long bed. Big block 460, great colors,
lifetime west coast truck. Nicely maintained, lots of recent work,
everything works. Drop-in bed liner, tubular step bars, and alloy
wheels. Nice truck that's ready to work or play.There was a time
when trucks like this were ubiquitous on the highways, but those
days are gone. Most were worked to death and tossed away in favor
of something new, but the square-jawed F-Series trucks of the 1990s
remain some of the most iconic haulers ever built. This handsome
F250 presents in factory Emerald Green Metallic, which looks
fantastic on the angular sheetmetal. And by 1994, additions like
the aero headlights and smooth bumpers knocked off some the rough
edges. Delivered new in Snohomish, Washington, it spent the
entirety of its life in the Pacific northwest where the roads are
thankfully free of salt. As a result, it remains in outstanding
condition with a brilliant gloss to the paint and a very clean
undercarriage. And as an upscale XLT model, there's plenty of
chrome, a subtle pinstripe that matches the interior, and '4x4'
graphics on the bed. You'll also note a few heavy-duty items
befitting a �-ton pickup, including the oversized side mirrors,
heavy-duty step bumper, and sturdy 16-inch wheels and tires.
Interestingly enough, the Marti Report that accompanies the truck
indicates that only 148 trucks were built in this particular color
combination-puzzling, because it's just beautiful.Ford called the
light gray cloth interior 'Opal Gray' and it features a 40/20/40
split bench with a wide center armrest that's full of practical
storage. It almost looks like a pair of buckets. There's a rather
long list of options including working factory A/C, cruise control,
tilt steering column, power windows and locks, and a full set of
gauges including a tachometer. There's also a sliding rear window,
which really makes the interior comfortable on days when you don't
quite need the A/C as well as a decent AM/FM/cassette stereo
system. You'll also spot that little switch over by the headlight
switch that manages the twin gas tanks, giving even this big block
truck bladder-bursting highway range. The upholstery is in
excellent shape with the only demerit being a ding in the leather
at about 12 o'clock on the steering wheel. Otherwise, it's far more
luxurious and comfortable than you remember.For power, this big
truck uses Ford's biggest engine: a 460 cubic inch V8. Their top
gas-powered mill, it uses Ford's proven EEC-IV engine management
system to make it surprisingly civilized. It starts easily, idles
properly, and pulls hard in any gear with just about any load in
the bed. With all that torque on tap and a heavy-duty chassis
underneath, there's nothing you can't move. The engine bay is tidy
and completely stock, with conscientious maintenance to keep it
healthy over the years. Heavy-duty cooling is on this truck's
options list, so it's pretty much immune to hot days and the engine
bay is so stock even the jack handle is still locked in place on
the radiator cradle. The transmission is a sturdy 4-speed automatic
spinning a 2-speed transfer case and 4.10/4.11 gears in the
pumpkins, making the most of the engine's torque. The floors and
cab corners are completely solid with no issues, the exhaust is
still 100% stock, and there are massive disc brakes up front with
4-piston calipers. 16-inch alloy wheels wear 235/85/16 truck
radials.Documentation includes the original owner's manuals, some
service receipts, and the Marti Report.We have to admit, this is a
really good-looking truck. And there's almost nothing you can't do
with a �-ton 4x4 with an 8-foot bed-it's the most useful tool
you'll ever own. The F-Series of the '80s and '90s are well on
their way to being icons and even though this truck qualifies as a
legitimate collector's item, it's very easy to live with. Take a
