THIS VEHICLE WILL BE AT THE OWL'S HEAD AUCTION ON AUGUST 23. PLEASE REGISTER TO BID IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN IT: https://auction.owlshead.org/ Regarded as the last of the classic old-school, squared-off-styled F-150, the 1992-1997 generation has become increasingly popular among pickup truck enthusiasts. Harkening back to a time when pickup trucks were usually work horses without extraneous size and luxury gizmos, these F-150s are nearly impossible to find with very low miles and in pristine condition. Yet here we have a time-capsule example of a 1994 Ford F-150 XL 4WD standard cab pickup. That mouthful means that this is a basic trim level pickup truck in what is now a very rare body style. Incredibly preserved, this handsome F-150 has traveled less than 8,000 miles since rolling off the assembly line. As you'd expect of a properly stored and maintained example with just 7,826 miles, the body and paint are original and in superb condition. Sharp-eyed enthusiasts will notice the truck has a few period accessories including a bug shield, integrated running boards and a bed liner. It also has a clean Carfax report. The interior also looks and feels showroom fresh, from the headliner down to the rubber floor mat. Though it may not be fancy, the thickly-padded bench seat is surprisingly comfortable. This fantastic interior has a factory AM/FM stereo radio and auxiliary gauges. The F-150 was not ordered with air-conditioning but it does have the effective old-school vent windows. Under the hood is the tried-and-true 4.9-liter straight six coupled to a four-speed automatic transmission. Four-wheel drive, power steering and power brakes round out this amazing truck's specifications. Of course it runs great, with smooth performance from the powertrain and a comfortable, easy-to-drive demeanor whether tooling around town or cruising on the interstate. All told, if you wish you could go back in time and buy a brand new standard cab 1994 Ford F-150 XL with 4-wheel drive, this opportunity here is as close to that as it gets. Given its combination of rarity, condition and very low mileage, we expect this F-150 will generate plenty of excitement on the Owl's Head auction block.
