'86 F250 - 460 4spd 4wd on FB Marketplace

4.10 gears too :)

Pics I got look like its a VERY solid truck underneath. The ac was removed and the interior could use some basic restoration. Dash, carpet, ect.

Seems like a high price for a truck that won't pass CA smog.

Nice truck.  Maybe a bit high though.

However, I think Messers Marin and Chong wrote the MPG spec's.  Yeah right, a 460 will get 13 in the city and 17 on the highway.  And with 4.10 gears????

My little 3400 lb Flareside with 302 and 5spd only managed to get 18 mpg hwy. I wonder is that someting that FB auto populates or does the seller have to fill it in?...

It is a nice looking truck though;).

I don't know where the MPG info came from. Perhaps the original window sticker info? They were extremely optimistic back then. They are just optimistic now.

I have a feeling the FB app auto populates mpg. I have not used it to post a for sale item, so I can't speak from experience. From what I've been hearing while shopping.... the app needs work.

Sometimes I even search for E-250 to find F series trucks. Auto trans doesn't always mean that. 4wd will come up for 2wd trucks. It all depends on what the person clicks.
