Eric's '86 Ford F150 (F250 badges) Black POS 4sp.

Details

This is my 1986 Ford F250 (well okay it's really an F150 riced out to look like an F250), probably the biggest piece of shit truck you will ever see. Ever. I drive it in the rain/snow/cold when I can't drive my '77 trans am or my '95 camaro. It's actually pretty reliable. Four wheel drive comes in handy; this is why I bought it.

It's an injected 302 coupled to a 4 speed manual going back to a crappy diff that isn't even limited slip. I push like 9 or 10 horsepower through this monster V8. Got like 14.9 lbs/foot too. Fast as all hell. I consistently rape M5. Yeah....

I drilled 15 holes in the muffler. Makes it sound...well, shitty. I just wanted to disguise the 20,000 exhaust leaks up front. Works quite well, actually. It was a good idea. You should try it sometime. It has what you call a QUALITY lift kit. And the steering, WOW--is it ever so tight. It's comparable to an F1 car, actually. And, I can pull like 2.1 G's on the skidpad.

It has a CUSTOM stereo, yo. $80 head unit. Definitely the largest expenditure thus far. I plan on ripping it out when I sell the truck soon. The speaker on the left is blown. The other one is buried underneath all that junk. Don't forget the SKULL SHIFT KNOB!! This was second largest expenditure. The eyes used to light up but I think it broke.

It has absolutely BY FAR the WORST dash design I've ever seen in my life. When driving, I can't see my speedo (not that it works anyway), I can't see my hi-beam indicator (up top), and I have to move my head significantly to view the other four gauges. Like the custom steering wheel cover, though? Pep boys: $4.99. Not to mention, this is the coolest looking door panel I've ever seen...

On one side, the 4x4 thing fell off, the side marker is shit, and there is glue holding the grill in place? Note the kick-ass chrome job on the other side.
