Thats pretty low mileage for that year, and it looks to be in good shape. One thing i never understood was why they made a F-250 light duty, but i guess its because in 1998 they didnt make Super Dutys because they were retooling the plant.

Quinlan is a little disappointed that he received HMK Highmark 4 boots instead of the Highmark Pros as he had anticipated...

A mountain lion roaming the prairie found a bull, killed it and ate the entire bull. With a heavy belly, unable to walk, the lion laid in the tall grass moaning and roaring. Soon a hunter, attracted by the roaring, shot and killed the lion.
Moral: When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut!

^Looks just like my '99 F-150. They are good pickups, only problems I've had with my 5.4 is a coil going out, so I put in all new plugs with coils. Should have no problems pulling that trailer of yours. Also, 46k is LOW...What size tires you have on it?

46K is extremely low for a 98 model year. I dont know what size tires are on it, I just know when I need new ones I will be putting some bigger ones on it probably.

Nice buy, I picked up an 04 f150 this winter with the 5.4 and I love it. It was a big step up from my old 85 toyota pickup.

I think the 4.6 is a better motor than the 5.4. I have the 5.4 in my Expedition and it is the worse sounding motor I have ever had.
That truck should last you a long time.
