It seems to lean more to a 1999 or 2000 Ford F-150 King Ranch, but it kind of looks like it says something shorter like 'XLT' under the F-150 badge. See, the chrome bumper and two-tone paint scheme point to the King Ranch. Well, the only models availible for the F-150 in 1999 and 200 were the XL, XLT, King Ranch and SVT Lightning. It is definetly not a XL or ST Lightning. I guess it is a King Ranch. |

Didn't the King Ranch have a different badge on the fender (instead of the regular F150 badge)? |

Yes, the King Ranch had a large special badge on the fender. And I believe they weren't available until 2002. http://i5.ebayimg.com/04/i/06/d5/71/4a_3.JPG |

King Ranch and SVT Lightning were first availible in 1999 for the F-150. So it could be a King Ranch. The only other models were the XLS which had black plastic instead of chrome (and I think Crew Cab wasn't availible on it?), XLT which didn't have the two-tone side modlings and fender moldings (It also had black plastic) and who ever thinks this is a SVT Lightning, obviously doesn't know anything about the Ford F-series. So, the only thing it could be is 1999/2000 Ford F-150 King Ranch Crew Cab short-bed. |

I'm still convinced it's not a King Ranch. I'm having trouble finding any solid evidence of the King Ranch being available before 2001 (http://www.f150online.com/fordnews/view.cfm?nnum=68), and the King Ranch has a different badge (http://i20.ebayimg.com/01/i/06/cd/e0/fd_3.JPG). |

me neither, The oldest King ranch F-150 I can find is a 2002. 2001 was the first year Ford Offered the King Ranch option according to Kelly Blue Book -- Last edit: 2006-04-15 11:07:51 |

What else could it be then? XL, XLT and SVT Lightning are the only options left for 1999 and 2000. It could be a 2001 King Ranch, or a 2002 King Ranch, but it definetly seems like a King Ranch seeing as SVT Lightning is a sport pickup, XL has no chrome and XLT is unlikely because this truck seems sort of fancy? |
