Terry, you're gonna get a lot of different answers on this depending on the experience they have had. Keep in mind that some folks blame the equipment even though they were the ones that mistreated it. That being said, I personally have always had good service from Ford trucks. A 300ci. six will develop more torque than a 302 v8.Then there was the 351 ci. v8. All are good engines. However you will only find them in the 95 and 96 models as that is the old body style.
