No pickup trucks are "AWD" so that's an easy one. It's either 2WD or 4x4.
There is an option code for limited slip or locking differential. Learn what they are for the various brands and have the seller look at the option tag to see if that code is present. On GM pickup trucks, the code is "G80" and the option tag is located in the glove compartment.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
