Miles Overview
The F-150 is Ford's full-size pickup, and the 1998 model is the tenth generation that debuted the year before. It rides smoothly for a truck, and the steering is light enough that it doesn't feel like a chore around town. The cab is roomy, with a rear seat that folds up for secure storage behind the front seats. Reliability is strong overall, though some owners report issues with brakes, spark plugs, and heater cores as the truck ages. A cloth interior and the mid-range 4.6L V8 mark the XLT as the step up from the work-truck XL, without jumping to the leather and wood of the Lariat. The 4.6L V8 makes 215 horsepower and pairs with an {automatic transmission} in {two-wheel drive}, which feels responsive off the line and cruises easily at highway speeds. You can order the XLT with the 5.4L V8 for more pulling power, but the 4.6L is a solid all-arounder that doesn't ask for premium fuel.
