IDK what "generation" you're talking about. But all '80-96 are built on the same chassis & use mostly the same (or interchangeable) parts.



The '75-79 chassis is VERY similar.

Thanks! My generations were just 79 style, 85 style and 88. ( i said those years for example because i dont remember production years so well)

What about door strength and front end?

Which those example will win if they crash head to head?

Pretty much the same for F-150's thru 9th gen. MAF engines (some 95's, most 96's & newer)are also SEFI (sequentially fired) rather than EFI. So when your crashing head on, you'll be doing it w/ better performance & MPG's.

Pretty much the same til the 10th generation. Many other minor factors involves, but basically, the biggest, heaviest engine will prevail on like frames, from a physics standpoint, in a head on. My Uncle did Accident Investigaton for 10 yrs. This might only buy you a little more time before they pull the plug anyway. What's up? Missing a few cards out of your deck? Bad day at work? Out of work? Ol' lady dump ya? Crazy talk is usually frowned upon, till you reach "Senior Member" status! I'm all ears!

The doors are exactly the same from '80-95½, and the only change for '95½-96 was an extra beam inside the bottom of the door.

Depends on your definition of "win". '92-96 have a crumple zone behind the front bumper, but I've never seen one actually crumple.

.

So it really doesn't matter - they're so close that you can consider them equal.

I think that puts you into the 250 class. Make sure the other driver signs a full release of liability first. Good luck w/ that!

He wants to use it for "Crash test dummy" practice. Don't know if a custom edition would make much difference! (unless it comes w/ built in crash dummies, but I think he's got that covered!)
