My favorite truck of all time. In 1993 my dad got a fantastic deal on a 1992 F-250 manual diesel. He used it for everything you can imagine. I hated sitting in the middle because of the shifter. Lol

His was the same color as this. For 18 years he put 330k miles on it and was still running well. That 7.3 IDI was like music to my ears. They do not make diesels like that anymore, that's for sure.

I used to pay much more attention years ago, but I have not yet seen another custom trim from the 92-97 gen. They're all Heavy Duty or XLT. Must have been a limited production or just not popular.

Hopefully the person who we sold it to took great care of it. Lots of memories in that truck.

The 7.3 IDI was the last great diesel, before they got molested with all the emissions garbage.

I like all cars. I could find some interesting in practically any car. This vehicle, I find the door and how it’s cut out from the body panel fascinating. Then there is no door for the rear cab

It's only cool because its old and there aren't too many of them left in the world. I don't think they ever sold it in the US, so it gets some points for being rare as well. Other than that, its ugly and a total death trap. European of Japanese minivans of that era had no safety at all.
