1991 F-150 For Sale

Kelley Blue Book Private Party Value - $2,360 - OBO

Perfect old truck to keep at the baja ranch.

CA plates, expire 31 July. The truck is at my house in TJ.

2WD 1991 F-150 XLT Lariat - Top of line F-150 for that year.
Extended cab, long bed.
2 Owners, 129,596 miles verified by Carfax, I have the report
5.0 Liter, fuel injected V8 (the good old 302)
Automatic transmission with electronic overdrive
Air Conditioning
Power Steering
AM/FM Cassette (remember those?)
Power Windows
Power Door Locks
Tilt Wheel
Cruise Control
Sliding Rear Window
Tow Package
Dual Gas Tanks - about a 450 mile range.

Excellent paint (white) - repainted 3 years ago
No dents
Almost new tires
New radiator
New plugs and wires about 5000 miles ago.
Four year old muffler and pipes.

Everything works, very clean. Motor runs smooth with plenty of power. I've driven the truck about 20,000 miles in the past 5 years.

Needs new brake master cylinder (it's leaking, maybe just a gasket). Maybe brakes, I don't know. New shocks would fix the boat-like ride, which I rather enjoy.

The link didn't take me where you wanted us to go--

It just took me to page 3, with a blank "Quick reply" panel. No way to scroll anywhere.

"Kelley Blue Book Private Party Value - $2,360"

Is that the price?

k-rico - 5-17-2010 at 12:33 PM

OBO

Since you won't throw in the camper, howsabout a couple of those Palm Trees? :tumble:

k-rico - 5-17-2010 at 12:37 PM

They're in Barra de Navidad, Jalisco, go get 'em in your new old Ford.

DENNIS - 5-17-2010 at 12:42 PM

I'll have to think about this, but since you're going to take that ol' wornout camper to the dump, you can just leave it on and I'll take it for you. :lol:

I'll be bumping this up to the top occasionally until I'm ready to advertise to the masses.

You might want to consider keeping it, I have had 6 Ford trucks and the best ones were the 80-91 vintage. I had an 81 with a 6 and a 91 diesel and they were bombproof, now I have a 2000 F350 Powerstroke and I have spent over 8k on repairs and it only has 135,000 miles on it. The motor is good but the rest of the truck is problematic.

I have a parking space problem, my HOA is picky about parking, but I could work something out. Keeping it really serves no purpose tho. Best to sell it and I'm hoping some nomad could use an old truck for occasional use. It's a good value but I think too tired to trust loaded up on the long haul in remote areas in Baja. Especially since my wife and two dogs are always with me.

After I figure out how to transfer the camper to my new truck I'll put it on the busy street in front of the development (and guard house) with some signs in it during the day. A construction worker may buy it, they don't get much cheaper.

As far as the camper, I'm thinking two forklifts, one on each side would work. Pick it up, drive out the old truck, drive in the new, set it down. Perhaps the guys at Home Depot in Rosarito would help me out for a few bucks.

you ARE the man! my wife saw an old ltd convertible (did they even make those?) yesterday and said how cool one would be to cruise the cliffs in.

all i could think of was, "boat!"

k-rico - 5-31-2010 at 04:27 PM

Bump.

DENNIS - 5-31-2010 at 04:29 PM

Hey Rico............You're in Mexico. Raise the price. :lol:

tiotomasbcs - 5-31-2010 at 04:49 PM

Suave Rico--donate it to the local Stoned Surfers Charity and deduct it from your income tax! Or convert it into a Houseboat; new innovations!!

fishabductor - 5-31-2010 at 10:03 PM

Maybe if you strapped 2 of those boards under the truck you could make a pontoon boat out of it.

Stoned Surfers? now that I think is an innovation
