Travis it DOES sound complicated when you explain it, but I agree, the multiswitch in my truck is incredibly easy to replace.

Regardless, the floor switch IS pretty cool. If ya'll that don't have one, want one, it can be installed really easily. My brother did it in his 97 F250 in a matter of about an hour. The hardest part was cutting through the insulation under the carpet smilietease
 
Since we have some new members here with F150's, I thought :idea: we better bump this back to the top to update the poll...

Tough decision... most of the ford trucks are just too dam sexy!! I love the Gen 2 Lightnings and i love the flare sides..

I love my dads 03 F150 Fx4 Lariat SuperCrew (try to say that 10 times fast!) His is black with the 17in ford wheels and chrome ford running boards.. looks so nice.. rancho shocks.. fully loaded!

My friend has an "Arrest Me" red 2001 Lightning, sooooo nice.. i want to steal it sooo bad

actually heres some pictures

Heres that lightning

My vote is for the 92-96 style, I have a 78 SC SB I am gonna part out , I still have a place in my heart for that truck , but this newer one is my new love.

I like the 80-96 bodystyles, all 3 of them (they got better over time). :p

I like the 67-72, and really really like the 09 F150, I think it looks great.

I liked the 05-07 (facelifted) Superduties, but I am not a big fan of the 2008-

'73-'77 (really dig the round headlights)
followed by '93-'96, then all the ones in between

No offense anyone, but Ford hasn't built a half-ton I really like for a decade now...
O so true .... And I know several dear who would agree. They got 97 down trucks for $5000 and they sell. And the newer truck sit for about same price.
 
I think the exterior styling on the '92-'96 is a bit nicer than the '87-'91s. I drove an '89 a couple hundred miles over Thanksgiving, though, and decided I prefer the interiors in them. Dimmer on the floor, wipers on the dash, everything but the power window switches (I prefer cranks anyway).

Yup. Gen8: YelloThumbUp :)

I personally like the trucks from 40s to 79, but truthfully I really do think Ford has never made a bad looking truck, am I the only one?

Everything from 96 up in F150 Cat has been a real let down .

If I ever purchase another truck, it'll have 5 requirements:

1.) Ninth Generation F-150 XLT (92-96)
2.) Blue
3.) 4x4
4.) 351W
5.) 5 Spd. Manual Tranny

You'll haveno problem till the manual part . Its a rarity with the 351 for some reason.

^^Yep, i've never seen a 351 with a manual except in the 250's in the 92-96 style : \

I voted for the 87-96... Ive put both of mine through alot and they are still going strong. I wouldnt trade them for nothing!

Rented one and drove it all over california that year, fell in love with it!

This is a similar pic to one I used to own and loved:

Ok, it was an F100... who cares???:rofl:

That black truck was 100 percent like our old one. Ours was a 1997 with the 4.6 (5.4 wasnt out yet) But we LOVED that truck.

My favorite style hands down is the 92-96 F series. You cant beat how tough these trucks look with some nice tires. Second would be the 67-79. Ford really didnt make a truck i never liked.
