I had a '88 F150 4 x 4 back when I lived in Erie PA. Loved that truck. I used it for hauling and plowing and my daily commuter. Unstopable. I owned a commercial building with a below-grade loading dock. Sometimes in the winter the big 53' semi trucks would get stuck on the ice and not be able to get any traction. I would throw a heavy chain on their front tow hook and wrap it around my hitch. The drivers would laugh and laugh looking at my F-150 hooked up to their big rig - until I threw it in low and hauled their butts uphill on sheet ice. I know at least 2 of them went out and bought F-150s after that little demonstration. Great truck. I could push snow into 12' high mounds with that thing. I sold it to my partner when I moved to CT in 2000. I think he still uses it to plow with.
I don't need a truck much anymore. Bought a 99 Jeep cherokee when I moved here. That was a great vehicle too. After that a 02 Jeep Grand Cherokee that my daughter is driving now, the 04 liberty for my wife and last year I found a 06 Jeep Commander limited - fully optioned with a 5.7 Hemi and only 17K miles on it. It hauls butt, but the gas mileage sucks. Still, it's pretty much unstopable. I have a trailer for hauling chicken feed or building materials. All the Jeeps have hitches.
