You may not find them for 2 dollars but you can get these trucks anywhere for under 2000 bucks I see them for sale on craigslist for between 500 to 1000 all the time there not hard to get ahold of here in North Carolina. The ones around 2000 have little to no damage and very low mileage. The cheaper ones have higher miles and some body damage but not going to stop the truck from running and doing its job. I've pulled these engines apart with over 300k and the internals look almost brand new just keep the oil changed and change antifreeze every 3 years and you will get over 300k. on my 4.9l 300 inline big 6 that's the heart of my 1995 efi 5 speed trans f150. I've got over 300k on mine and it still runs like brand new. Best truck I've ever owned hands down. I plan to keep this truck for life even if I have to ever rebuild it I have 0 dents and the only rust is very light surface rust in the bed but nothing that can't be sanded and I will be putting a spray rhino bed liner.

My 1984 F150 was the best vehicle I ever owned, period. Basic pickup with a 302 V8, four speed OD toploader. No frills, whatsoever. I sold it at 170K miles and lamented selling it thereafter.

390s are awesome. I love that you can just give 'em a little gas, and they pull strong and smooth without all the noise and drama. My old T-bird had one. 80-90 mph was easy to achieve. No sense of speed or effort at all. Just tip into it and roll....

COOL! The SLANT\6 and the AMC 4.0L are also legendary! Remember seeing these used at Delta Airlines 'TUG' brand baggage pullers and they were super reliable and had tons of torque to pull multiple carts and mail cans: one awesome INLINE American six that is bombproof.

The cylinder deactivation, and even worse, the "start-stop" functions, where the car shuts down when you come to a complete stop, you just know a) that cannot be good for the engine and, b) it's just another thing to go wrong. I think they do it to meet fuel efficiency standards (?).

Yep, when I was a pizza delivery driver I had to replace my starter from all the starting/stopping... Then I started leaving my car on, while parked at customer's houses. You only get so many starts from a starter motor. Funny thing... my starter burned out literally while I was delivering to an auto repair shop. Guess who fixed it.

By the way Scotty, how about doing a show on the 98' Ford Explorer XLT V6. Mine was a GEM, 325k original engine and Transmission..... Never a problem until the second Car hit me while stopped. One day on the Freeway it just made a loud noise and stopped. The mechanic said it was Toast $$$ to fix. It still looks perfect sitting in the back covered up. Very little body damage or rust, perfect inside leather, clean one owner. I just can't take it to the Dump. I love it like my kid! 💓💓

My first truck was an 88’ F-150, 300 i6. I blew it on the way to school one morning, so I bought an 82 F-100, 300 i6, a couple months later (same year as the 88) I blew it on the way to church. Dropped a 302 in my f100, I’ve been driving it for 5 years.

I got the impression that my '82 could probably reach 90 if I really wanted it to, but I never ran it that fast, and 'speed' wasn't really what the 300 inline was built to do anyway. Their forte was durability, reliability, low maintenance, and off-idle torque - all of which they achieved, in spades. It could roll at 60-65 while loaded, without any sense of 'effort', and that was sufficient. The 85 mph speedos never bothered me anyway.
