Ford’s popular F-150 is well regarded as the best half-ton pickup truck around. A member of the F-Series lineage, it has been providing dependable and utilitarian transport to enterprising Americans for decades. In many cases, an F-Series pickup truck is the sole vehicle for a small business owner, and used for commercial, as well as family transport purposes. So, as you can imagine, the F-Series is one of America’s best-sellers, and an immensely loved nameplate. This particular 1985 Ford F-150 Lariat Explorer comes from the seventh generation, which ran between 1979 and 1986. With a reportedly original 93,062 miles on the clock, it’s received a recent servicing as well, to keep it running smoothly. So why not buy this truck and make it your weekend runner?
This 1985 Ford F-150 Lariat Explorer wears a quirky two-tone paint job of red and white. This gives the truck a cheerful appearance, belying the traditional train of thought that pickup trucks have to look boring. Furthermore, this truck also gets shiny hubcaps and whitewall tires for a classic appearance. Heading further back, the truck bed is in great condition as well. The interior of this 1985 Ford F-150 Lariat Explorer is in similarly great condition to the exterior. You can tell that this is a fairly upmarket trim, since it’s an XLT Lariat. You’ve got power windows, power door locks, air conditioning, and a push-button radio. The gauge cluster even includes a tachometer, which was a rarity in pickup trucks those days. We’re told that the air con is fully functioning, so you can enjoy plenty of cool air from it when driving on hot days. So sit back, enjoy the plush seats, and take a drive down to the Eighties.
Under the hood of this 1985 Ford F-150 Lariat Explorer lies a 5.8L small-block V8 that should put out over 200hp and 300lb-ft. The truck is rear-wheel drive, and features a 4-speed automatic transmission for an easy driving experience. The current owner also says that it’s rocking a new exhaust system, so you’ll enjoy calmness when cruising, but still hear that iconic V8 engine note when pressing on.

Ford’s longest-running series to date, the F-Series entered production in 1948, and revolutionized small businesses across America. Here was a sturdy, capable and reliable pickup truck that came in capacities of ½ ton upwards.

Ford’s F-Series full-size pickup truck has been a mainstay of American life ever since it was born in 1948. One of the Blue Oval’s longest-running nameplates, the range initially started with the F-100. From 1984, the F-150 came about as the half-ton variant in the range. Since 1977, the F-Series has been the best-selling pickup truck in the United States. What’s more, you can find ferocious performance variants that can genuinely startle the average muscle car or sports car. Take this 2023 Ford F-150 Shelby Super Snake as a prime example. With well over 700 raging horses packed in a supercharged 5.0L V8, waiting to be unleashed, this 13,000-mile monster could be yours!

In the ʼ00s, Ford decided to honor its timeless Thunderbird personal luxury car with a retro-modern eleventh generation.

The car has done only 8,312 miles, making it a real rare find, and a definitive future classic.

Before RAM became its own brand, it was a sub-brand of Dodge. Hence, it was known as the Dodge Ram series of pickup trucks. Ram comes from the animal of the same name, signifying toughness and capability. During the third generation of the nameplate, which ran between 2002 and 2008, something interesting happened. Dodge engineers wondered what would happen if they shoe-horned a Viper V10 into a Dodge Ram 1500 pickup truck. The result was the Dodge Ram SRT-10, a run of manic, V10-engined trucks. Made between 2004 and 2006, just over 10,000 units were made. Today, we’ve got one of those up for grabs, an 86,000-mile 2005 Dodge Ram SRT-10. The healthy mileage tells you that these trucks are meant to be driven, and we’re sure that you’ll want to do the same once you get your hands on it. Since it’s got a recent service, you can drive it properly from the moment you receive the keys. Just be gentle with your right foot, as you don’t have a whole bunch of electronic systems to save you from embarrassment. This is an old-school performance truck, so treat it with respect. If you do, it will give you unmatched driving excitement.
Chevy’s Silverado is one of the most popular half-ton pickup trucks around. Building on decades of excellence spearheaded by the Chevy C/K Series, the Silverado was a mere trim level before taking over Chevy’s full-size pickup truck line-up in 1998. Since then, we’re now on the fourth generation of the nameplate, which debuted in 2019. Before that, the third generation came in 2014 and ran for just five years. That’s where this 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Midnight Edition hails from. With a reasonable 88,000 miles, this truck is looking for a new custodian. It’s a Midnight Edition variant, with the Appearance Package, the LT Convenience Package, the 2LT Preferred Equipment Group, and some tasty performance upgrades too.
