The most beat up truck i drove around was a 94 F250. It was actually pretty nice until someone decided they didnt want to pay for their Honda Fit no more and I gave her the perfect oppertunity to collect from my insurance. After that the bed was crushed in on one side, the cab crunched up so the door didnt really work right. So i took it off. The tie rods broke so i got some from a 150 and adjusted them myself. The tires i got from a junk yard were too big to fit so i put junk leafsprings in the front and wheel spacers which made the front end ride like an old 2 wheel drive tractor. Caster for days. The tow guy broke my brand new windsheild so i never cared to fix it. And then it started over heating so after replacing the entire cooling system i got pissed off and mounted an electric pusher fan on it with junk wires that had a switch i taped to the unused door hinge. Used it to haul scrap once a week while in the army as well as hauling my 50hp Kubota around to do brush hogging jobs. Talk about a sketchy ride. It also taught me first hand what happens when you put aluminum lug nuts on steel lugs. Had to drive it for ten miles in complete darkness and kept hearing the tire flapping around the next morning i went to check it and all my lugs were either stripped or broken. I hated to sell it but couldnt afford to get it back to Pa.
