Option list finally came in from Ford WTF!?!?!?

[5.0Flareside]

and here it is... and might i say ummmmm....... apperently somewhere along the line someone has lied bout something..........

 

[73F100Shortbed]

You have a rear window wiper?

 

[5.0Flareside]

the main thing i see is the they say its a styleside.....

 

[73F100Shortbed]

Oh yeah I didn't notice that. The wiper stood out most to me LOL

 

[Skandocious]

Hey it was made on my birthday!

 

[5.0Flareside]

and wtf does manual ac mean???

and my truck has front bucket seats... now seams to have been swapped in... along with the bed...

 

[73F100Shortbed]

It says captain chairs in that list which I assume means bucket seats. Manual a/c just means no auto climate control I would think.

 

[john112deere]

and wtf does manual ac mean???

Normal A/C.

Not the stupid kind that tries (and virtually never succeeds) to maintain temperature in the cab based on a numerical temperature setting.

 

[5.0Flareside]

ok thanks yall for clearing some of it up. so what it looks like to me is somewhere down the road the bed was swapped on......

so looks like im gonna have to send an email to the original owner. remember how i met him outside a store a couple of months ago? he never did mention a bed swap.....

 

[john112deere]

What's it say on your fenders?

I'm not sure, but if memory serves, at least some Flaresides of that generation said "Flareside" instead of "F-150" on the front fenders.

 

[5.0Flareside]

All Flaresides of this Gen say Flareside on the fender as does mine. so i guess they swapped the badges also????

Styleside is Flairside Fleet side is the '88...

And your truck ain't silver...

 

[5.0Flareside]

no... Styleside is the 88 and Flareside is my truck... Fleetside is a chevy term. and the truck has a Silver 2 tone stripe on the bottom.

 

[F 150Cobra]

wait the thing says 5.0
and yours has a 5.8 ?

 

[5.0Flareside]

yeah the truck originally had a 302. i already knew that.

 

[1970Custom]

no... Styleside is the 88 and Flareside is my truck... Fleetside is a chevy term.

Okay, I stand corrected...

and the truck has a Silver 2 tone stripe on the bottom.

Then it should have two color codes, I've done the VIN check a many two color trucks and they come back with both colors OR the main color and not the trim color...

 

[5.0Flareside]

look just below where you saw the silver color code..... you will see electric currant.... thats the main color...

 

[1970Custom]

I friggen hate retarded color names...

 

[94supercab]

and here it is... and might i say ummmmm....... apperently somewhere along the line someone has lied bout something..........

according to my shop manual, X15 stands for F150 supercab 4x2.there is nothing about styleside or flareside is in the VIN. the only way to tell is your door jamb sticker, in the body code, your truck should have a "C" as the 3rd digit for supercab flareside. a styleside supercab would have an "M". i think its safe to say, your truck came from the factory as a flareside.

 

[5.0Flareside]

ok... and i just checked my body code is FJC.... so why the hell does this option list show styleside? Fail on Fords part!!!
