Used Ford F-150 for Sale in West Palm Beach, FL

The first time I saw this truck, was a photo of it on Craigslist. A guy was selling it in a nearby town, and I got very excited, because the truck is an F150, which I wanted, it was sharp looking, which I hoped for, and it was a great deal, which I was grateful for. The style package is more “loaded,” so the truck has some perks; it’s a V8, it has two gas tanks, has a short bed which makes it look sporty, yet the interior and dashboard are pretty simple, without all the readouts and gadgets of “newer” trucks. This truck is solid. It’s got a wide wheel base, which, with the short bed, make it feel like it hugs the road more, and the cab is still high enough that I can see over most other cars. Other things I like about the truck are, it has power steering, power windows, power brakes, and a bench seat, which feels sturdier and is easier to maintain than bucket seats. This truck is the perfect size; It’s big enough to haul a 25 foot boat, or an RV trailer, and it’s not huge so I’ll have fun driving it on the highway, on a city street, on a country road, or down to the beach. The truck runs well; when I bought it, it needed a fuel pump, some brake work, and some new gaskets and hoses. It runs smooth, and sounds great for a 25 year old vehicle. The gas mileage isn’t great, but I’m not going to use it for a lot of road trips. I’ll drive it 6 miles or so to work, 15 miles or so to my favorite fishing spots, and 5-10 miles to visit a friend here and there. This truck has a sport bed, 72” x 48”, which is short for a typical F150. It’ll be adequate for hauling lumber and building materials, or loading up boxes and furniture when I help friends move, and my 10 foot kayak fits perfectly, pushed in at an angle. One reason I have a truck is to do all these things, but mostly to haul my kayak and gear for a day’s fishing.

This truck has a full cab, thus making it roomy for up to four passengers, you would never know you are in a truck when riding in it. It handles very well in all weather conditions, feeling like one is driving a tall car. Needless to say, though it sport s short bed, it is more than able to handle large and heavy loads, including entire rolls of livestock hay or up to as many as 100 bags of feed 50 lbs. each PLUS added bales of hay. And it still drives as if your were in a car. The pulling and towing power is unsurpassed, it can breeze down the highway pulling a 26 foot travel trailer or a four horse trailer fully loaded and it stays stable, you could literally still drive it with one finger and would not know you had a trailer behind you till you looked out of the power side mirrors.
