So, My dad's old (soon to be mine) 1994 F-150 is, supposedly, an eddie bauer truck. It's the dark blue metallic color with the gold on the bottom, tan interior, 302, auto, keyless entry, premium sound w/cassette, single cab, 2 wheel drive.

The truck has the eddie bauer logos on the back sides of the bed, but here's what makes it weird.

-It is a 1994 - I read that the eddie bauer package wasn't avail. until 1995
-The truck is a long bed, I have never seen another long bed EB truck
-The truck has "XLT" under "F-150" on the side badges...all the EB trucks I have seen do not have the XLT insignia.
-The standard eddie bauer woodgrain on the dash was NOT on this truck, instead it was just one of those "joshua tree" aftermarket wood dash kits.

So, I don't know, think this was really an eddie bauer truck or did somebody just have a blue / gold truck and add the stickers? Was the gold on the bottom even available on the F150 if it wasn't an eddie bauer?

thanks

what is the trim code on the VIN sticker on the door?

 

I answered my question...found an eddie bauer f150 brochure from 1994...truck on the front cover had an XLT badge on it, was a long bed....they must have made all the changes to them to differentiate them from the rest in 95 and onto 96 I think 94 was unique / somewhat rare for the EB package...maybe...

 

Eddie Bauer was back to '86 on the Bronco, I'd have to research when the F-150s became available.

Looks like it started in 94 on the F150...

It started in 83 when the bronco II was introduced...my parents had a red one....brand new...
