Funny thing about 4wd, in the last 20 years I have only needed 4wd 3x on the street. I am not counting going off paved roads as that is a whole different thing.

Out of those 3, 2 were avoidable, I just said f it I have 4wd. If you don't need it, it's just another 800# and more mainatance. Then again, if you don't need the diesel you are just throwing money away

All good points but in my case it would have a cab over camper on it and towing a buggy to Glamis. 4wd is kind of nice to have out there because it opens up more remote camping areas.

Looks like a clean truck. I had a 95 4wd PSD F250. Ripped the I beam 4wd out and swapped in a Dana 60 the first week I owned it. Owned it for 18 months and sold it because the OBS trucks suck if you need them for anything more than a daily driver grocery getter. The brakes suck, mirrors suck, power sucks, and parts are obsolete or extremely expensive. I replaced the body mounts with the poly ones. They twisted the cab, body lines didn't match, rode worse and caused the doors to "pop" when you opened them. I ended up getting Ford body mounts at cost price of $750 for all of them. The drivers side one is a bitch to remove because of the fuel tank being in the way. You can't get ford mounts anymore. You'll be lucky to find a truck that doesn't have a broken intake. Ford used plastic bolts and those always broke and never sealed the airbox so dirt always got sucked into the motor. The brick nose 5 speed trucks all have broken firewalls from the clutch pedal assembly. The body lines are classic and bad ass that no manufacturer has been able to duplicate.

Yellow boat needs to drive a new one to see reality :). I would not tow 5k with that thing across the desert in summer let alone drive it to the river empty.

I have, I just can not stomach the price of a new one.
