Obs ford for sale6/3/2023 So, I went to Bring A Trailer, an auction site that generally specializes in higher-end, rare stuff, to see if they had anything – which they did. We’ve got nearly as many F-350s from the same era, but there again, lots of worn out trucks that didn’t fit the bill. We’ve got 154 OBS F-250s in the database, but as you’d expect, a lot of them had seen better days. However, in this case, there’s nothing even remotely close to base a comparison value from. Normally, when I write an Interesting Iron piece, I can look at Iron Comps to value the equipment. My gut feeling is that this is probably going to sell for somewhere around $40 to $45K. That’s the million dollar question in everybody’s mind. The combination of 4WD with a four-speed automatic and the grunt of a 7.3 Powerstroke would’ve made it one of the most popular farm trucks you could buy back then. I know a half-dozen guys from back home in Michigan who had trucks just like this. I presume this is a Line-X bedliner, plus the required cheap floor mats for anybody who lives in the north where we get snow!Īll in all, this is a nearly perfect 1997-era farm truck. AM/FM/cassette deck, cruise, electric windows and mirrors, but that’s about it. Seating is a 40/20/40 split bench, so nothing real special there. It’s deep blue metallic over royal blue cloth interior. Higher density insulation? That seems like a reach.Īt any rate, special edition aside, this is a pretty spartan truck. I sort of wonder if some of that isn’t fluffed-up sales guy talk, though. People like to argue on the internet about whether or not Northlands came with heavier duty batteries and denser insulation and stuff like that. It’s a Northland Edition, but from what I’m told, that’s not much more than a couple of decals. The owner estimates that he’s only put about 600 miles on it since he bought it.Ĭompared with the way you can trick out a pickup today, this one is pretty bare bones. The new owner actually parked it in an old milking parlor that he’d turned into a small climate-controlled shop. Phil tells me that he knew it was a really clean pickup, and it was purchased more or less as an investment. Grandpa’s F-250 basically remained in storage until about seven or eight years ago when it was sold to a gentleman in Grand Island, Nebraska. Markets Analysis Back to Markets Analysis.
