What’s new
Nomenclature for the Custom model is replaced by XL as the new base model and the Sport Appearance is likewise dropped. Interior refinements include a new speed control system employing a tap-up/tap-down adjustment feature and improved seat cushion padding for rear-seat comfort in SuperCab models. The Lightning, a 2WD street performance trim, offers a two-door regular cab/short box with a 240-hp 5.8L V8. Whiile ill-equipped for traditional truck duties, its impressive performance and aggressive looks cast a promising light on Ford's newly introduced SVT division.

Can't think of life without it

1993 Ford F-150 XLT 2dr Extended Cab 4WD SB (4.9L 6cyl naturally aspired 4M)
I bought this truck new in 1992 with 11
miles on the odometer. Outside of some
basic repairs like the water pump,
mufflers, shocks, warped brake rotors
it has been flawless in its
reliability. The old venerable 302
lives up to heritage. The bench seats
are a little uncomfortable on long
hauls. My dad is still amazed 10 1/2
years later how quiet this truck is and …
how well it rides down the road.

1993 Ford F-150 XLT 2dr Regular Cab 4WD SB (4.9L 6cyl naturally aspired 4M)
I bought mine as a leftover in January of 94. I've had 462,742 pleasure filled miles. Never once did she ever leave me stranded.
By far the best I've ever owned. Going to look for another one today. That's why I was here.
Update as much as i loved my ford I crossed over to the dark side and purchased a chevy silverado. I don't know if it will hold up like my old gal but I will … say this . Very comfortable and tows the tiny house with no problems what so ever.

1993 Ford F-150 XLT 2dr Extended Cab 4WD SB (4.9L 6cyl naturally aspired 4M)
Previously I had a 1997 F 150 that after 295,000 miles the engine finally failed. So i was broke and needed a trailer puller. Ended up with a 93 extended cab 351W 4x4 long bed with trailer package. It had 135k on it when i bought it's now 147. I have replaced the engine with a 351 RV improved remanufactured engine. I think I have a tranny problem so the power is not good. The mileage is … about 12 mpg which will be an issue when fuel gets to $4.00 a gallon. It is a daily driver now. For the money that you will spend on a new truck, this is a good value. Even if you invest in a rebuilt motor and tranny. It gets you down the road.
Awesome Truck

1993 Ford F-150 XLT 2dr Extended Cab SB (4.9L 6cyl naturally aspired 4M)
I bought my 93 f150 in 1997 with 40,000 miles, i now got 217,000 and still runs like new! This truck is very Reliable as long as you keep up to date and well maintained. For being an old hunk of truck, its a very nice ride (if you don't mind a little noise on the side) and hauls great. This truck has never let me down. I've had a 07 Chevy 1500 and Ram 1500 (almost NEW work trucks) with … less than 200 miles, both tranny's blew at around 124- 135,000 miles, the rams engine even went at 150,000.("these trucks were just for driving state to state with little or no cargo") That leaves me to say that the 93 f150 is more reliable than most newer models trucks.
