1995 ford f-250 review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. Ford’s f-series is still king of the road. introductionthere are more ford f-series pickups sold every year than any other car or truck on the market, and it has been that way for more than a decade. Such is the popularity of ford’s full-size pickup, which has long offered a powerful one-two punch of enduring performance and rugged overall appeal. to keep up with demand for the f-series trucks, ford now has five plants scattered across the country with a total manufacturing capacity of nearly 700,000 units per year. like the chevrolet c/k trucks and the dodge ram - the ford’s only true competitors - the f-series comes in a huge array of short-and long-wheelbase body styles. Last year’s improvements included a whole pile of safety-related equipment, including a driver’s airbag, a center high-mounted brake light combined with the cargo bed lamp, cfc-free air conditioning, and a brake/shift interlock system. This information comes from ford, which estimates about 16 mpg in combined city/highway driving. We checked out the power stroke engine in an f-250 xlt regular cab styleside (the lighter-duty f-150 isn’t equipped to cope with the power stroke diesel). the big, brawny f-250 is the model for truck quality in this segment, with brilliant paint, deep chrome and uniform panel fits, including the tailgate and the bed. The interior fit-and-finish is on par with ford full-size sedans. With its chromed, toothy grille, the f-250 looks tough - and is. the f-250 xlt power stroke rides on lt215/85r-16d tires and eight-lug, 16-in. Wheels, all controlled by ford’s patented twin i-beam front suspension with coil springs. There’s a solid axle with leaf springs in the rear, and like any truck, it’s more comfortable loaded than not. However, ride harshness is not at all objectionable when it’s empty. The driving position is commanding, there’s lots of glass area and there’s plenty of room in which to maneuver. some tall drivers may find the regular cab a bit short on headroom - not so much vertically (there’s more than 40 in. The dodge ram’s standard cab holds the edge in roominess. Other than that, we don’t have any knocks on comfort or accommodation. the 17:1 ratio power steering communicates directly with the driver but tends to be numb and needs corrections at highway speeds. The power brakes are a hefty 11. 72-in. This truck absolutely lunges across intersections when it’s loaded, and will pull a 7000-lb. House trailer without looking back. the downside? Direct-injection diesels are noisy. Anti-lock Brakes✔ AM/FM✔ Air Conditioning
