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.

The Ford F150 has long been the most popular pick-up in the United States, and it’s earned its reputation for being a solid work truck, capable of fulfilling just about any role asked of it. Even with a new era of electrification, the F150 shows no sign of slowing down, with new fans being found for the all-electric F150 Lightning. But while a new generation of F150 owners continues to keep the nameplate alive, its trucks like our featured listing from 1978 that paved the way. Our featured 1978 Ford F150 Custom has been fully restored and includes a rebuilt engine. The owner describes it as a restomod and from these images, it certainly looks the part.
The 2016 Ford Mustang Shelby Super Snake, unofficially called the GT500 Super Snake, is a Ford Mustang GT on steroids. Built on the Mustang’s then-new S550 chassis, the new model actually lost some power compared to its predecessor. However it more than made up for it with increased agility and handling. As many car enthusiasts have mentioned, this has been one of the most well-balanced Mustang Shelbys to ever hit the road. The increase of power is mainly achieved with a supercharger, but also thanks to a custom Borla exhaust. Not all the work was done under the hood — as expected the Super Snake received signature Shelby restyling that made it stand apart from a standard Mustang. With a mere 6,560 miles clocked on the odometer, this serialized car from Shelby American - 1SSS0017 is for sale in Richmond, Texas.

Today, the GMC Sierra 1500 is known as quite a sizeable light-duty pickup, but it started its life as a much different square-body pickup.

Our featured car has been extensively upgraded, but visually and under the hood. This 1986 GMC C1500 Sierra Classic features a monster of a motor powering it: a blueprinted 355ci V8 Crate engine. With a reported 21,500 miles, this stunning pickup could be a brilliant addition to anyone’s automotive arsenal.
Jeep is widely known for its go-anywhere off-roaders. But did you know that this prolific brand also makes pickup trucks? The Gladiator is their pickup truck offering these days, but the Commanche was the man of the moment between 1985 and 1992. Produced with multiple bed lengths, and two- or four-wheel drive choices, the Commanche became a Jeep staple during its time. Many buyers appreciated how it offered the signature Jeep off-road experience but could easily carry heavy loads for work purposes. If you’d like to have a Commanche in your life, this 175,273-mile 1988 Jeep Commanche is a great place to start. It’s got a rebuilt engine and comes with a few cosmetic tweaks, too.
