I think i'm an idiot...
So I bought this Ford truck for $1,000. At first I thought it was a 96 but I'm not so sure now... there is no owner manual. I bought it from a family friend and they didn't know what year it is either... I assume its a 2wd since it doesn't say 4x4 or 4wd or awd anywhere on or in the truck and has no option to switch to and from.
So how can I tell the year of the truck whilst lacking a bunch of information...?
It's a two door, F150 XL, no power locks, no power winders, no cruise control, pull out **** to turn lights on if that info helps at all.
I've tried Googling and everything and I can't seem to find any information how to determine this... Its my first car and I intend on fixing it up and learning about cars...

yep i would say look for the vin and decode it, i bought mine and the prev owner was vague about the year it was build, one time he'd say 1991 then it was 1989, eventually i checked the vin and it was 1988 (not that it matters much but its easy for parts) if there's no vin you can look at the front of the car to tell if its pre 91 or not.

had a buddy that kinda had one of those moments, he has a truck with double tanks, and didn't think anything of asking if one tank was bad or not, needless to say he was almost home and flipped and found a tank had a hole.
